Damned Woods

Garin dropped his gaze. "If you want to...."

"Sorry," Aquaria said to the man before she drained him of his blood.  

[Cecily D Aria]

Garin just watched as she did that.

Aquaria sat back, finished when the man was dead. She stood. "Garin, he hurt me," she said. The arrow stung a little, and she guessed it was holy, though her magic countered it.

((Posting is slow))

Garin offered his hand to her. "I wish I hadn't driven you away," he said.  

[marixe alcyone]

"Just don't blame yourself," Aquaria said. She took his hand and stood. Her eyes had gone to normal.  

[Cecily D Aria]

garin gently pulled her into a hug. "I never wanted to force this on you..."  

[marixe alcyone]

"And I'm still with you," Aquaria said. "So please, Garin, I'm fine with this, absolutely so."  

[Cecily D Aria]

"I thought all angels were supposed to strive to keep themselves pure, away from creatures like me," Garin said.  

[marixe alcyone]

Aquaria giggled. "Not exactly," she said, smiling sweetly. "You've met my brother, right?" It wasn't mean, she was just excited and a little bit happy.  

[Cecily D Aria]

"And you want to be like him?" Garin questioned.  

[marixe alcyone]

"Nobody said I was evil," Aquaria said quietly. "And vampires, especially you, are not evil, either. I was just proving that all angels aren't entirely pure."  

[Cecily D Aria]

"I just thought that was what you strived for..." Garin said, looking away.  

[marixe alcyone]

"Some of us," Aquaria said. "The priests and priestesses, mainly. I was supposed to become a priestess when I turned eighteen, but that won't happen. Others do, as well, but it isn't as common as it used to be."  

[Cecily D Aria]

"It won't happen, because..." Garin's voice trailed off.
