Death Against Death [1x1]

"Oh ok" Adria looked over to the door as the asian girl walked in. "Mhm im new.." adrias wings twitch at the slight touch of the girls hands. "Im Adria nice to meet you.. and thank you for the complement" Adrias wings continue to twitch at every slight touch but the touching did not hurt her it was rather pleasant having someone run their hands through her wings.
 
Vertie dug her other hand into the wings, giggling quietly to herself. "I wish I had wings. Our real forms are so boring, really, all we do is get a bit taller," she complained.
Zulemia snorted. "It's more than a bit taller, Vertie. Besides, you need all the extra height you can get!"
 
Adria couldn't help but laugh at what mia had said. "Wings can be a real burden sometimes tho.. but they are nice." Adrias wings continued to twitch as vertie continued to mess with her wings.
 
Vertie didn't seem to notice the twitching, as if she had she probably would have stopped. "So you've always had wings?" She asked.
Amee rolled her eyes, tossing her long hair over the side of the bed. "All angels have wings, Vertie," she deadpanned.
Vertie pouted, and took her hands out of Adria's wings. "Whatever. Where's Rosalva?" She asked.

There was a tiny knock at the door. Zulemia rolled her eyes. "You don't have to knock, Rosa!" She called through the door. Vertie opened the door.

In floated a tiny thing. It was barely a foot tall, and was floating maybe one foot off the ground. It was like a cloth doll, with yarn hair and black button eyes. She looked around for a few seconds, and then up at Adria. "Hello?" The thing said, it's voice echoing around the room like it wasn't coming from the doll.
 
"actually no not every angel has wings its very very rare to not have them but it does happen sometimes." When Vertie took her hands out of her wings so went the pleasant sensation from it. When the doll entered the room Adria tilted her head to the side in confusion she cant recall ever hearing about a demon that was a doll.. "umm hi"
 
Zulemia laughed. "C'mon, Rosa. You're freaking her out," she said, tearing up another ball of paper and throwing it at the doll.
There was a sighing sound, and then the dolls transformed. The next second, the doll had transformed. A small girl, maybe around five or six stood, holding the same doll from before in her hands. She looked up at Adria with big brown eyes, and then to her necklace. She went onto her tip toes and reached out with a tiny hand, going to pick the necklace from around her neck.
Before she could, there was another blur. Amee had jumped down from the bed and swept the little demon away, holding her up off the ground and away fro Adria and the necklace.
 
Adria looked at the small child she was adorable!! Adria had a soft spot for kids. "Hello" Adria had a small polite smile as the little girl was about to touch the necklace probably out of curiousity or something but she blinked in confusion when the little girl was carried away from her. It was clear the demon did not trust her or something. "I know I'm new and a angel but I swear I'm not going to hurt anyone if that's what you think.."
 
Amee shuffled Rosalva on her hip, lips tight. She eyed the necklace. "Then you obviously don't know what that necklace means," she snapped, nodding to the jewellery.
Zulemia sighed and shook her head. "Calm down, Amee," she said slowly, sliding off the desk and placing one hand on her long-haired roommates shoulder.
Amee snatched away from her touch, stepping towards the door with little Rosalva on her hip. "We'll be in the dinner hall," she said curtly, and then sped out of the room with the same speed as before.
 
Adria plays around with the necklace now curious as to what it really was. "What is she talking about mia..? What does it mean?" 'Maybe im not as welcomed here as i thought...' Adria sighs softly "Why was she afraid..?" If mia would not answer.. she could always ask mater sanctus maybe... Would most demons react the way she did as well..? Adria hoped not but if they did.. she still had mia she could be around.. at least she wouldn't be alone anymore.

Zulemia sighed and shook her head. "I'll tell you later," she said, seeming cautious of the necklace all of a sudden, eying it carefully.
Vertie frowned. "That's just how Amee is. She's unpredictable, and a little bit silly," she said, as if it hadn't been majorly suspicious.
 
Adria caught the look Mia was giving the necklace. "Alright...." Adria could tell that they wouldn't say anything about it right now so she changed the topic. "So... is there anyone else i should meet or was that everyone?" Adria probably shouldn't join them for dinner.. she didn't want to ruin anything by being there.

"There are a few other people, but they're not so much of a big deal," Vertie said with a shrug. She walked to the other bunkbed and jumped up onto the top bunk. "There's Mellabella - who's this really nice Stealing Demon - Alina - she's a nature demon - Salome - he talks to animals, it's really cool - Eustolia and Elfrieda - they're these conjoined twins," she started naming random other demons, counting them on her fingers. She went on and on, until a large gong rang through the tower.

Zulemia jumped up from where she'd sat down on the desk. "That's time for dinner!" She said quickly, shutting Vertie up.
 
Adria tried to remember all the names of the demons but gave up half way through. "A nice demon.. that steals...? I have a lot to get use to..." Adria jumps slightly as the gong went off not from the sound but what had usually happened back in heaven it was just a natural reflex by now. Adria sighs feeling stupid. "Alright... i wouldn't be intruding would i..?" Adria was clearly still uncomfortable and didn't quite know what she could and could not do yet..
 
Both Zulemia and Vertie laughed, and Vertie shook her head. "Of course not! You're one of us now!" She said with another laugh. Zulemia opened the door and Vertie took Adria by the hand. She didn't want a second before she leaped down the spiral staircase, plummeting to the ground impossibly fast - maybe a second or two, maximum. She seemed to slow down time to a halt just before they landed, and they stood on the ground safely. Vertie didn't acknowledge the bending of time, just rushing out of the tower with Zulemia close behind.

"Slow down, Vertie!" Zulemia called.
Vertie huffed and let go of Adria's hand. "Your job from here, Mia," she said.
Zulemia laughed and took both Vertie and Adria's hands "Vertie can't fly, you see," she explained to Adria, taking into the air quickly as she could.
"Quicker, Mia! Someone else is gonna get the crura turcia!" Vertie screamed as they whipped through the air, Zulemia's real speed coming through.

Zulemia landed on solid ground again. All around the demons rushed towards a nearby building. It was huge, with a purple stained glass dome. Vertie clicked her fingers and they all froze in place. Nothing moved or breathed as Zulemia lead Adria towards the building's door.
 
Adria had a small smile on her face she felt weird when she said that she was one of them.." thank you..."

Adria struggled to keep up with the demon that held her hand. but it was interesting being able to move so quickly.

Adria gladly accepted mias hand her smile increased ever so slightly when she did neither of them missed the small change. "Whats crura turcia...?" adria had to speak rather loud as they flew threw the air at high speeds. It would be fun racing mia when she got the chance. When they landed Adria face was priceless as Vertie literally stopped time She just stood there with a shocked yet very impressed face. "That............So.............cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Adria was so impressed no AMAZED at what the demon did. It wouldn't be hard for the now fallen angel and the demon Vertie to get along and it gos without saying that adria and mia got along very well... it was like they were meant for each other.
 
Nobody immediately responded to Adria's question, but it soon became apparent.
Vertie and Zulemia both barged their way into the dinner hall. There were multiple long tables, and one big one in the middle with tons of food on it. Right in the middle of the table was what looked like a massive turkey, bigger than even a person. Vertie launched herself at this massive bird, wrapping a hand around one of it's massive, meaty legs and tearing it off in one fell move. She then jumped off the table and scrambled away, running to the corner of the room. As soon as she lost focus, time resumed, demons flowing in through the door.

Zulemia held on tight to Adria's hand as she ran up to the table. "Grab anything that looks good!" She shouted over the din, shovelling exotic looking things onto a plate. There was all sorts, more extravagant than even the mortal realms food. Meats in neon sauces, bitesized vegetables stuffed in pastries, tiny fish, perfectly preserved in a savoury shellac of sorts.
 
When adria see's the giant turkey her immediate thoughts were. ' That's a big bird...' Adria looked over the food and her mouth began to water as it all look delicious... So she grabbed a plate and started putting all sorts of different foods onto it not knowing exactly she was getting but it was probably going to be great none the less.

Adria had finished getting her food and was now following mia. As she was following mia adria took a small bite out of one of the different meats on her plate and it was amazing. "mmmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm thats so good..........."
 
Zulemia lead Adria to a table near the edge of the room. Vertie sat, tearing into the massive turkey leg with her razor sharp teeth. Grease dripped down her chin and landed in her lap, but she didn't seem to care. It didn't even seem like she needed any other food. In the seat next to her, Amee sat with Rosalva on her lap. She spoon-fed the small child some delicious smelling soup; it seemed that Rosalva didn't have any teeth.
Zulemia sat down in front of Amee, leaving the seat in front of Vertie free for Adria.
 
Adria sat down infront of Vertie and began to eat the many food on her plate they were all very delicious. adria was in bliss she's never had such great food before it was all amazing. adria looks around the large room seeing demons that she somewhat recognized from her time as a angel.
 
Soon enough, the massive bone that the leg had once been on had been absolutely picked clean. Vertie grabbed the bone by the end and threw it as hard as she could into the air. Four or five small, gruesome looking humanoids descended from the balconies above and squabbled for the bone. They were Minor Demons, or Servant Demons. One of the two. One of the demons stole the bone away and then ran off.
Zulemia looked up at Adria, the area around her mouth smeared in bright green sauce. She wiped it off on the back of her hand and smiled. "How is it, then?" She asked.
Diagonally across from Adria, Amee kept on spoon feeding Rosalva. However, she kept a very careful eye on the fallen angel and her necklace.
