Return to Nu'san Temple

-: Back On Track :- (Self ; L ; Done)

Vella leaned against one of the ancient pillars that stood outside the temples holding the age old stone from collapsing in on itself. She had been refused entrance from the monks and stood outside in the humid weather unamused and in a bad mood. According to the monks her ruffled skirt was to short and her corset hung to on her chest. Nothing inappropriate was showing so Vella had no ideas why the monks where being so stuck up. Rolling her eyes in exasperation she fixed the bow that hid the seam between the skirt and the corset.

Her pale blond hair had been pulled up into its usual pony tail, lightning blue streaks tipped her hair and made her look like some sort of punk. Vella was not however a punk and didn’t appreciate that her human form had to carry over markings she held in her beast form. Her white eyes stared blankly into the jungle but E was making quick work of the surroundings and from what either of them could tell they were safe from the evil that had turned time backwards.

A Very pale monk came out of the temple, his eyes flashed a glowing orange for a moment and then they were a normal green. A small red and orange sprite fluttered at his side. He gave Vella a look that was a mix between disgust and disappointment. He acted like he knew her and her whole life story. Quickly Vella shot him a sharp glare, daring him to say something about her. The monk just shrugged and walked on, his hands folded behind his back and the sprite seemed to pick the conversation again. Shaking her head Vella cast her gaze desperately into the temple wondering what exactly her friends where doing.

This is ridiculous.” Vella muttered, E tilted his head a bit in confusion. “They let demons into the temple but here I am, an angel stuck on the outside of a place that I’m sure they worship my kind.” She growled, trying not to raise her voice because it could have some unwanted side effects if people knew there where angles walking the mortal plane. The little wisp of smoke that took the form of a dragon flitted inside he couldn’t project Vella’s voice but he could give her the scoop on what was going on. Doing a wade arc around the room he found the place to only hold a few monks and two or three outsiders. Scarlet and Rhyket where nowhere to be found.

They’ve left me behind.” Vella said shock plain in her voice. “How rude.” She stomped into the temple getting a few raised eyebrows but mostly stern looks from the crowed inside. “ma’am, you really aren’t supposed to be in here.” an old monk said raising a hand and walking in front of her. “Shove it old man.” Vella growled her hand reaching out and moving the man aside. A few shocked gasps erupted but other than that she could feel the anger in the room rise. Vella was prepared for the fight that soon broke out against her. The monks took up arms mostly they reached for the daggers they kept hidden in their robes.

Oh please.” Vella sighed this would be too easy. At least the monks where smart they came at her as a group. Knowing she couldn’t harm these people to badly Vella aimed to disarm them before getting through to wherever her companions had gone. With daggers poised to stab and cut Vella took a step back at the perfect second, the daggers slashed the air but other than that no blood was shed. “You really are about as blind as me.” Vella said to the men who came back with confused looks. The patrons had fled and now only the monk where standing against her. Vella knew these people would do her no harm if they knew her true self. Mortals didn’t often receive news of fallen angels so to the monks Vella would only be a normal angel.

Taking another step back Vella took a deep breath willing her mortal skin to dissipate and out came a blinding and pure white light. “This is who I am, now bow down or die.” Vella commanding voice filled the room, her white wings etched with lightning and her pure form crackled a little as she hovered above the ground. Shock spread amongst the monks and they were bowing to her within second. Pleased with the turn of event Vella allowed them to stand and taking her mortal form once again she raised a hand for silence. “You do not know me, but I am in search for a demon that has found its way among the mortals. He has orange hair and was wearing a suit.” Her voice still held authority but it no longer echoes through the old stone.  One man stepped forward; his eyes showed that he was lost in a memory. “There was a man like that who came through here, he went down that hall.” The man pointed to her left. “What is down there?” Vella asked the man puzzled. “The catacombs are down there.” The man said simply, he was not able to keep the awe and fear from his voice.

Vella nodded, “May the gods send their blessings to you.” She said before following the hall way. A few deep gasps came from behind her some of the monks let out the breath they had been holding. Vella didn’t often take out the holy being card but she felt that the time was right to do so. No harm came to the men or she now knew where her companions where going though she had no idea what they wanted with a bunch of dead people. E lay as a black string around her neck, showing her the way. He often did this after watching another think sprite in action. He lay across her neck as a sort of wispy necklace; its chain was like black twine while at the center of her chest laid a black pair of wings that would flutter sometimes.

Slow clapping emitted from behind the far pillar, and as Vella turned to face the sound, she knew immediately that it was Rhyket going to make fun of what she said. “Bow down or die.” His voice was condescending, and Vella flinched back a little bit. Her words of defense leaving her as Rhyket stepped closer towards her. Neither Scarlet nor Kat seemed to be in sight. A weight founds itself at the pit of her stomach, and she flitted backwards a few paces. “aww, come one. You know I have no powers. No electricity, no mind magic.” He taunted, Vella knew he had no power over the elements, or magic. That didn’t make him any less intimidating, and Vella knew she wouldn’t stand a chance up against him.

Good gods you two are dramatic.” Scarlet’s voice sounded up from somewhere down the hall. Shortly after Kat could be heard giggling. The two angels rolled their eyes and turned to face the girls “did you get it?” Rhyket asked, sounding exasperated at the lot of them. “yes.” Scarlet retorted holding up some bag. “Vella, did you have to do that, now those poor fellas will be talking a bunch of nonsense to anyone who enters the temple.” Kat scolded lightly, but Vella didn’t look like she cared much for what happened to the monks.

I got tired of them glaring at me like I was some sort of punk kid.” Vella growled, shooting a pointed look towards Scarlet. “hey now!" Scarlet put her hands up. “I may look like a punk but at least I cover up.” Kat nodded silently in agreement, though she looked like she wanted to add to the conversation. “Can we please just leave?” Rhyket interrupted the silence, holding out his hand so that Scarlet could give him the bag.

Very well.” Scarlet sighed, tossing the bag over to Rhyket before heading back towards the main hall. Vella followed closely behind, and Kat took up the end of their line. The four marched down the path, and since they had lost their cart in the city they would be continuing to walk until they reached the port. Their plan had been to gather some weird monk herb and then get on one of rhyket’s boats to sail back across the ocean. Part one was done, now all they had to do was make it to the port and hope that the angel hadn’t moved mountains while they had been delayed.
