A story collaboration between Angel Hunt and Streifen

Chapter One : Part Five
[ Creation ]


Deep red eyes regard deep pink and she smiles at the Angel, shaking her head in the slightest, “It was good seeing you again kid,” she reaches out, sliding lacquered fingernails into soft strands of pink and pulling away before Jun can even register the movement, “you dying it even now huh?”

The pink and white haired Angel’s hand moves up and touches at his hair, pushing it from his line of vision “yeah, well it’s still easier than trying to explain to people about my eyes” “Humans are so stupid,” Saiyuri snorts, “even now they can’t accept something as simple as an eye color.”

“Yeah…” Jun returns his fingers to his pockets, “humans have some issues but there’s some good ones out there too, and it’s no biggie to keep it up. I got used to the color back then so it’s kinda hard to let it go anyway.”

She shakes her head, “You’ve got more tolerance for them than I do, but it looks good on you so keep it up if it makes you happy.”

“Yeah…” Jun still felt a bit uncomfortable around Saiyuri, after everything that had happened between them, it was still hard for him to carry on a casual conversation with her.

Red eyes catch his, a small pout forming on her lips, “Look kid, you gotta stop being a stranger, I told you years ago that things are good between us, you still think I’m out to hurt you or something?”

Jun shifts, his hands still latched into the pockets of black bondage pants, “No… it’s not that, it’s just…” His eyes drop and he sighs. It’s just that he’s spent a long time trying to accept what happened almost twenty years ago and it hasn’t been easy. He’s had the people he loves helping him through it, and without him, he’d probably have gone insane getting it all back the way he did. But how can he just return to some form of normality with her as if it never happened and they’ve been friends forever or something? “It’s just I get busy a lot, Taz is still helping me dodge the council and Aki and my-” He catches himself, a habit he was still trying to break. “Your sister got that Demon to keep the broken seal hidden so I’m good on that front and well, plus you know – there’s other stuff…”

Saiyuri smirks softly, “Yeah… other stuff.” She knew what he meant, knew who he meant, even if he wouldn’t say it. Jun was always so easy for her to read. “How’s that going?” The Angel’s gaze moves from the floor and up to meet dark red, the uncomfortable look on his face pulling a small bout of laughter from cherry red lips and she puts her hand up as if to stop him, “that tells me enough. If you are happy, then that’s all that matters right? It’s all I ever wanted for you kid, even if the way I went about it was a bit… extreme.”

Jun musters a weak smile, “Look, no matter what happened afterwards, no matter how things are now. I’ll never forget what you did for me back then… I’ve been meaning to thank you for it ever since I busted the bullshit seal the Council put on me during the trial, been meaning to say it for years now actually… because you could have left me to die and you didn’t…”

“Hey, I did what I had to because I loved you. You’d do the same for me right?” She smiles.

A small pained look moves through his features. Yes he would have sacrificed everything back then for her, he had sacrificed everything he was. But things are so different now and have been for many years, so what can he say to her? “Saiyuri, I-”

She reaches up suddenly and ruffles Jun’s hair with a laugh, “Don’t worry about it. Like I said things are good between us, you got your life, I have mine – just stop being a stranger. I know my Sister misses you, I’m sure the others do too so just get your ass back to the mansion once in a while okay?” Pulling her fingers back, she turns away from the teen, speaking to him even as she’s walking, “My offer still stands though, I’m really very willing to wipe out my Uncle’s toys if they keep giving you shit okay?”

“Thanks…” Jun smiles, reaching up to straighten the messy strands in his eyes, “I’m sure I’ll be okay though.”

“See you around then kid” she chuckles without turning back, pulling her hand up to wave at the Angel once before fading from view. Jun stares at the empty space Saiyuri occupied only moments previous for a few minutes before turning and entering the loft he's called home for nearly the last twenty years.

Full lips slowly pull away from pale ones as cerulean blue eyes open to meet clear crimson. Claw tips linger on the soft flesh of his cheek before sliding down and over the body of the smaller man. Aki smiles at Jenova as he exits the inlaid marble bathe and wrings the water from his long ginger locks. Training, and the other activities that usually accompanied it, always made him starved by the end of the morning. He envied the fact that Jenova never had to actually eat to survive. The harder the Demon works him, the hungrier he always gets.

The Selestarri dries himself off and throws on a light linen kimono from the collection Jenova has provided him with over the years. Wrapping it around his slender frame, Aki treads out of the room barefoot and begins to pad his way across the marble hallway to the staircase that will take him down to the kitchen. He’d almost reached the stairwell when an iron grip takes hold the of his kimono collar and he falls flat on his back with a thud. Rubbing his head, the Selestarri squints in pain and attempts to look around for the source of his trip to the floor. “Owww… What the hell?” Deep red eyes look down at him, highly amused at his current circumstance.

Crap. Saiyuri.

Aki’s eyes roll as she straddles him with her small curved frame. Lacquered fingernails begin to inch their way up the outside of the Selestarri’s thigh and under his robe, ignoring his attempts at squirming away.

“Hey, cutie. What’ve you been up to?” The Demi God’s daughter practically purrs as she lowers herself close to the Eclipse’s face. She loved it when he tried to futility get away.

“Ummm... hi, Saiyuri. I don’t mean to be rude…” He’s lying, he did. He hated having to deal with her but he was too nice to actually say it. “…but Jenova and I just finished training and I’m way too tired to play with you today. I hope you understand, I’m just not as strong as you.” He gives her a tired smile with false sincerity while attempting to push down on his kimono to keep her hands from rising any further up his legs.

Saiyuri grins down into Aki’s face, the movements of her fingers still traveling under his robe, pulling laughter from cherry red glossed lips as he tries to push them away. Removing her hands, she slides them up and wraps them around the collar of the kimono, inching herself back and lifting Aki in one fluid movement. Without removing herself from his lap, she slides her body forward, slender arms wrapping around his frame a moment later. She settles her head on his shoulders with a smile, making sure to press her cleavage hard against the Selestarri’s chest as she slides her hands into the top of the kimono and begins pulling it down his back.

Aki was trying to push her away as he always did, but she loved messing with him and wasn’t about to stop now. She’d get what her Daddy asked for, but she would do it her own way as usual. The small woman slides her legs farther open, pressing herself harder against the Eclipsed, another bought of laughter leaving her lips as a whimper leaves him when she contacts with his groin. Aki’s hands grip at her small waist, renewing the attempt to push her away, only to have it be in vain. She was thoroughly enjoying making him squirm.

“I understand…” Deep red eyes stare down to watch her own movements as lacquered fingernails scrape along his back, moving up to trace patterns over his shoulder blades before gingerly moving over the line of the Gioa Crystal Shard. Aki gasps loudly, involuntarily arching towards her, “but I think I’m in the mood to play today…” she grins, “though…” the dark haired woman turns her head to the side, lips nearly touching the Selestarri’s ear, “maybe you can give me something in exchange for a re-scheduling of our appointment…” Her tongue slides out and she licks at Aki’s ear while she continues to trace around the crystal, holding the Eclipsed in place and laughing quietly as he attempts to hold himself free from her grasp. “…I just have no idea what you could give me that would equal all the fun we have when we play though…”

Christ. He hated when she did this. It always made him feel gross. He hated to have the Gioa shard touched and only Jenova could do it without making him feel disgusted or in pain. Even clothing was uncomfortable most of the time. Aki knew she was getting at something, but he was too distracted by just trying to get away to figure it out.

“You do have an idea, I know you. What do you want from me Saiyuri? I’m tired and hungry and not in the mood for this. Please stop touching the crystal...” He knew he was being bold to talk to her like that but Aki was at his tolerance limits for the day. She knew he couldn’t control his reactions which only encouraged her further. Saiyuri stops her movements for a moment, giving Aki a chance to sigh in relief. She taps lacquered nails against her lips as if lost in though.

“Hmmm… How about…” the Demi God’s daughter shoves Aki flat on his back against the cold marble before flipping him over underneath her legs and pins him again, pulling the kimono back down all the way. She ignores the Eclipse’s grunts of pain and continues her tracing of the Selestarri’s shoulder blades, occasionally passing over the Gioa shard, laughing when he groans. “….you give me one of those pretty feathers of yours, and we’ll call it even.”

He was really annoyed now. “You know it hurts for me to unseal my wings… Whatever, just take one…” Aki braces himself before releasing the seal, anything near the crystal hurt now, including any magic. Once his wings were out, they were fine, but it was the getting them out that hurt. No wonder Ikkairius kept his out most of the time. The Selestarri clenches his teeth and lets the seal go, allowing the silver-feathered appendages to form. He had no idea why she wanted one of his feathers, but he didn’t care at this point, as long as it made her go away.

The small woman sits back, eyes nearly glinting as the Eclipse’s wings unfold before her. Aki sighs, the tension in his jaw only easing after the silver appendages have fully solidified. Saiyuri grins, sliding forward and slipping her hands into the base of Aki’s wings, smirking when he grits his teeth once again. She knows full well this bothers him, she’s always known it and even though he’s being a lot more… dare she say, subdued this day, he still dislikes it and that is the main reason why she bothers to do it.

Sliding lacquered nails through soft down, she spends a few moments playing with the feathers, barely containing her laughter every time the Eclipse’s eyes squint and his hands clench, or he tenses his jaw. Aki was so fun to play with, he really was. She’d keep this up longer but as her eyes shift up briefly towards the end of the fourth floor hallway, she knows if she keeps pushing this too far – she’ll have more than the usual annoyed Selestarri on her hands.

Deep red eyes travel back down and she slides her fingers along the alula before continuing down into the closest tertials. Continuing further still she moves to the secondaries and finally into the primaries, making sure to scrape lightly over each feather she touches just to watch the reaction from the one pinned beneath her. She slides one hand back up and towards the base of one of Aki’s wings, spreading her palm and just barely touching fingertips along the skin surrounding the Gioa shard, laughing lightly when Aki flinches again. Her other hand wraps around one of his primaries and she keeps it there, staring down with a bemused grin when cerulean eyes clamp shut, bracing for the pain that would follow.

Instead of pulling it free, she remains still in order to let the anticipation build. Suddenly she lets the feather go and slides her hand up, gripping and yanking back hard on a silver secondary. A grunt is pulled from Aki’s mouth and she slips her fingers back up, feather in hand, to push down silver wings, bending in low and planting a huge wet sloppy kiss on the Selestarri’s cheek.

Laughter spills from her lips as she sits back, highly amused red orbs meeting very annoyed blue a moment later. “Thanks cutie, this’ll be payment enough for now…” she taps the feather on Aki’s nose and brings herself to a standing position directly over the prone form beneath her, twirling the silver feather in her fingers and watching as the light spilling in through cathedral style windows glitters against it with every turn, “next time though, you won’t be able to get off so easy. Now get yourself something to eat, gotta keep the energy levels high or our white haired beauty will run you into the ground.” She winks at him and begins fading, her laughter echoing through out the hallway even as her body disappears completely from view.

Aki lies still on the floor for a few minutes. His tiredness combines with the pain of unsealing his wings and having a feather ripped out, making him feel nauseated. Slowly he sits up and shrugs the kimono over his shoulders the best he can while leaving his wings out. It was too much to reseal them now.

The Selestarri gets himself to his feet and returns back to the room he shares with Jenova. He no longer had an appetite.

Io taps his feet impatiently, arms folded over his chest while he waits for both his counterpart and his daughter to return. A loud sigh spills into the empty field and he’s about to call out to them when long slender arms wrap harshly around his neck, pulling him back into a set of very large breasts.

“Hey Uncle!” Saiyuri beams down into the partially annoyed, partially amused face of the white haired demi God, “Daddy’s not back yet?”

Io barely manages to shake his head before he’s released, yelling out as he hits the grass and lands flat on his back. Incessant giggling fills the immediate area and he pulls himself up in time to watch as the girl scoops up his Other and twirls him around once before dropping him back down. She bends down, bringing her hands up to Hesue’s and they touch palms with a quick clap.

“Did you get it?” The black haired demi God asks, bouncing up and down in front of his much taller and much larger daughter.

Saiyuri grins and flicks her wrist, holding her fingers up as the silver feather materializes in her hand, “Of course, told you I could.” She pulls it away just as Hesue reaches out to grab it, “What about you Daddy? Lemme see yours”

A pout forms on Hesue’s lips briefly before he imitates his daughter’s movement. A large pitch black feather forms in his hand, the iridescence shining shades of blue and green in the light streaming from above.

“How did you manage to score that from him without him knowing Daddy?”

“Yeah, how?” Io repeats behind them.

Hesue grins, “I made him didn’t I?” He beams all proud like, “I can take as many as I need when I want to without him ever finding out, I’m just that smart.” He giggles, ignoring the roll of solid baby blue eyes behind his daughter.

Saiyuri laughs, reaching down to ruffle her father’s hair, “that’s why I love you Daddy, you’re just too smart for this world.” Turning around while the black haired creature moves to straighten recently mussed strands, she squats down in front of Io and holds the silver feather out with a smile. “I’ve got stuff to do so you two try not to have too much fun without me okay?” The white haired Demi God grins back, taking the feather from her hand and she reaches out to ruffle his hair as well as she stands, “Don’t forget you two owe me for this.” She laughs, fading from view and leaving the two alone.

Io stares at the feather, twirling it in his fingers for a few moments before solid eyes rise up to meet the gaze of his Other. “You ready?” Hesue giggles.

“To beat your sorry butt in this new game of yours?” Io smirks, “of course.”

The two small figures stand for a moment in silence with a look of determination on their faces. It had been a while since they created actual sentient life, let alone one that wasn’t too weak to handle its own. It was just so hard to do and empty shells were so much easier. They nod to one another before grabbing hold of both feathers together. Blinding magical energy begins to swirl around them, scaring all signs of life out of the immediate area.

Giggling laughter echoes throughout the valley as a small form begins to take shape …
