Erina did not know what to think of the Angel, risking herself to save them.

She drew closer though, problably breaking a barrier never crossed between the two races without being questioned.

Erina slowly circled her and then stopped, her back to the others.

"You make a good point. I will follow you. But I do wish to know your name."

"I am called Lamiel, and I can promise that I will not provide for you the best way out, if there is any such thing in this world." Her black eyes swept across the gathered group. "The coming days will be a horror, and I cannot promise safety, nor a happy ending, but I will do what I can. I come to you alone and unarmed, and if you wish it, I will leave you the same way... but you may come to have need of me before the end. Indeed, I am sure of it.Make your choice, but hurry. There is little time, and I will not stand here to die while waiting for you."

"Thank you Lovely. And while it may be true that such a thing could happen, I do not act without the Pale Rose's word. You won't get me going anywhere... well, maybe not anywhere... without her. She is my Rose, and I protect her."

Turning to looks at Erina, he says "And Angel. This is rather unusual behaviour. I'm not certain I've seen an Angel and a Fallen that close since... well... the last time they came to enlist help of mine. Help, of course."

"I've never seen a Vampire try and seduce a Fallen Angel." She retorted and stepped clsoer to Lamiel.

"I follow you, but only for escape fromt his horrid place."

Miv lightly touched D'Atigo's hand, then grasped it and pulled him towards the others.

"We may as well follow them." She said.

"Then clearly, you'd never met me before. Which you hadn't, Angel. So therefore, I'm not surprised. I'm also not picky."

"Looking down at his hand, then squeezing Miv's tighter, he replies with a voice thick and sweet as honey. "As you wish it Pale Rose. With them we go."

Miv closed her eyes alittle and let her hair fall into her face.

It hid her blush as she stopped in front of the others.

Erina stared at the two Vampires before looking back at Lamiel.

"Go ahead and lead us." She said before sighing.

"Please Lamiel. I would appreciate leaving now."

"Good." Pulling her cloak around her tightly, the angel turned and walked quietly away from the ruins of the castle, hoping that they would have enough time to get clear before anyone else came around looking for survivors. Too many, on both sides of the conflict, were excellent trackers, and the more distance between them and any pursuers, the better Lamiel would feel about the whole project.

Erina followed her silently.

Even though Erina was trying to distance herself from Miv, she wondered what could happen.

Sweet Miv and mysterious D'Artigo. Erina frowned. She didn't like the combination one bit.

As he set off with the other three D'Artigo whistled back. "Jessica! We're leaving now. Is the cat going to come along with us?" What a lovely group. Him, a Lycan female, a vamp female, a fallen angel female and an angel - also female. This was his kind of group.

Erina knew Jessica would follow.

She moved closer to the Angel and brushed her wing along her back.

"You should be careful holy one." She warned before smiling and lifting off the ground. She beat her wings slowly, staying close to the group.

Miv stayed close to D'Artigo.

She caught her sister's warning and frowned.

Erina was being diffucult. She sighed and closed her eyes.

Careful... A lone angel in a group of vampires and a fallen angel, and a changer... and the Fallen was the one warning about the others? If that wasn't enough to keep any angel on her toes, nothing was. Still, the whole dynamic of this little group was intriguing. Careful observation would be the key to making this work...

"You seem troubled Pale Rose. Speak, so others... I... may console thee." Though he spoke to Miv, his eyes were on Erina, watching her hover.
