"Sometimes I'm unfortunate enough to think about more important things. I'm not exactly the most thoughtful person in the world...but a thought has been crossing my mind a lot latley."

He turned around, he was almost face to face with her, and it startled him.

"I'm an Arch Angel...and not a lot of people know this, but I can't die. But I can be reconverted into a different form of energy...which means my mindset can be changed around. Brainwashing. I could be one of the bad guys if I'm captured, and since I'm immortal..."

He shivered. He didn't want to kill Ella or Artura...

She stared at him in silence for a little while, and then...
"I guess you'll just have to try not to get captured, aye?"
She gave him a reassuring smile.
"I know this may not seem like good advice, but worrying about the "what if's" never helps anything. If you don't want it to happen, then you've gotta make it not happen."

"Let me tell you...my weakness is pretty obvious. Good gods...I've got to be trained..."

He shook his head. He actually needed to be able to resist women. If the enemy used a woman to seduce him, he'd be powerless.

Artura suddenly popped up out of nowhere, dressed in a black gown. "Would you two shut up? Stupid demon hearing..." Artura growled. "I'm going to kill the next one who talks."

She laughed outright.
"That'll be the hard bit, but you can't get results if you don't make an effort."
She started walking again.

He was shocked by her sudden appearence.

"Why...you've dressed yourself" was all he could manage.

"I'm gonna sacrifice you..." Artura growled.

She stared at the two like a married woman watching a soap opera, thinking dismally, 'I just became the third wheel.'

He smiled. Was she being defensive. Maybe she didn;t want Rajani to know what they had been about to do.

"She already knows...I tried to pull it over on her. She's quite the strong one."

She chuckled wryly at Roy's comment.

Artura jabbed a finger in his chest. "So you leave me to seduce somone and STILL get nothing?" Artura looked totally pissed now, and she barely glanced at the woman.

"I can still make time...I just smelt apples...I like apples..."

He ran a hand down the curve of her side.

"Besides...you're messing with the worst commitment maker ever. You should have expected that at some point, just be glad it was sooner than later."

More thinking to herself: 'Ah, a lover's spat... I wish I had a snack, I'd be set. ... I wonder if there's anything to eat...' She looked around them distractedly.

"Eww, the C-word. No thank YOU." However, she did smile a bit mischievously.

He decided to show Rajani how skilled he was.

"Please...we can go back to camp...she won't have to be there. I can leave her here."

He did't really mean it, and he knew Rajani understood him.

"Don't leave me out to dry...you've never had a Arch Angel...I've never had a Demon...think of the opportunity you'll be missing..."
