[ooc] Alright, I think that's enough talking about character origins. ^-^; Let's begin working on the story a little bit more. After all the complaints, I'd have expected all of you to be bursting with posts. [/ooc]

Birds were singing softly in the lovely green trees, as the shining afternoon sunlight streamed all along the park. Children were running around a little farther off, and many adults were strolling around the god-tree that covered the entire park. Flower seeds were just starting to be sewn into the ground, and the grass was just starting to regrow. The snow had melted away earlier, and left apparant traces of existence all over the place. Yet beside all of these, the most peculiar sight there was that of two children walking around the tree like the adults were. They did not seem to be perturbed by any of the hurtful glares that any passerby gave them, and if they were pestered to 'run along', they would stick out their toungues in unism or tell them to make them. No other responses were made soon after an hour had passed, because one of the children had a red skin color, and a "really big nose".

Angela continued to walk silently next to Welf as he spoke about how his parents were human and demon. He gave plenty of details about both parents to make them particularly attractive to any eavesdropper, yet he kept exaggerating some of the details a little bit. It was only natural, as Angela had known for a while, to see someone else praise their parents so much. However, Angela had one question that she was dying to ask. After Welf had said that his mother made a horrific supper the night before, Angela popped in the question.
"Welf, can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"Do you like your mother?"
Welf looked at her wildly for a moment and exclaimed: "Of course I do!". It was about another moment during which Welf continued his wild look before Angela spoke again.
Angela: "I like my mother too." Another pause ensued this statement before being broken once more.
Welf: "...Why did you ask me that?"
Another pause.
Angela: "My mother... is gone."

Welf stopped walking in his surprise on hearing those very words come from Angela's mouth. The level of bewilderment from him begin to rise very fast, and he was starting to feel very warm now as well. Angela stopped just a few steps ahead of him, aware that he had stopped a moment ago.
Angela: "She left... leaving just me."
Welf didn't know what to say, and only uttered "Angela..". However, Angela spoke up.
"That's all."
And then she turned around, looking like she was trying really hard to hold back any tears she may have hidden behind those emerald eyes. Welf couldn't help but want to stop her, and the feeling was very large for some reason. He walked up to her a bit hastily, and spoke his mind.
Welf: "Please don't cry.... I mean, Angela... You look better when you're smiling than when you're crying."
He was blushing now, and it was showing. Angela could only help but smile once more, just because of him. But when a single ray of golden sunshine hit her face, she knew she had to go home once more.
Angela: "Welf, I need to get to my home now."
Welf nodded. "Well, alright. But do you want to meet again sometime?"
Angela nodded.
"Then you do want to meet over there by that bench tomorrow?"
Angela: "Sure! because it's fun when I'm with Welf, because I remember memories from back when it was fun."
Welf: " 'Yubikiri' then."
Angela consented to the pinky promise, and they both held their pinkies together once more. Suddenly, the sunlight shined brighter than it had ever done, and Welf's image of Angela and himself melted into the light. Then, before he knew it, he was back in the mansion once more. He could rememer that day by himself now so very well. But he began to wonder: Why was it that he could not remember this before? Was there something that he was made to forget? If it was so important as this, he should not have forgotten it, and he knew that. Unfortunately, he didn't spend too much time with the thought, as he wanted to leave the room and head to another room that he thought was safe. The hallways, he noticed, weren't as dark as they were just a moment ago. Strangely enough, they were beginning to look less battered and destroyed. Welf, however, didn't notice and ran down the hallway again, searching for a door that felt safe.

Asa was now sitting on the bed, staring into the center of the room. She looked at on of the trees nearby, and a gentle breeze flewby in an effort to create the lovely scenery into a live place. However, only the feeling of being lost was in the room, and Asa couldn't feel very much life coming from Angela anymore. She was still alive, to Asa's senses, but she wasn't doing as much as she was before. Yet there was another strange feeling that was coming from Angela's limp and lifeless body: There was a deep warmth that was starting to grow more and more. Asa hoped that Welf could remember only faster, though, since he had little time left.

[ooc] Sorry that took so long. ^-^;;; [/ooc]
