Are We Angels? Part 1

Rebecca watched him fly off, "There he goes. Wanna catch him and bring him to M? That would scare the sh*t out of him."

"Yeah, I think he'd shock me. He doesn't seem to like me much."

Jason's body glowed with electricity, he had caught the letter she had said, and now he knew he had to get gone. he shot off , a complete blur. he dissappeared a little ways off, where to, they couldn't know.

"Don't think he's a big fan of me, either." Rebecca said softly, "Well, sun's about to rise. Time to head back to the graveyard."

"All right. Can't wait to see what the kids do to you today." Cai said with a laugh as they began to fly back.

Jason had found a good hiding place, it was a bit of a cave, that could only be reached by going underwater with a slight bit of sunlight comming in the roof. he got in and sat on the ledge, waiting for dawn to turn him to stone.

Rebecca landed in her usual spot on the pedestal, M standing on his, "Ah, children." He smiled, "I found something for you to occupy your time with tomorrow."

"What?" Cai asked, landing on his pedistal.

Jason knew he would have to skip town soon. He didn't like this M person, and his "favorites" would no doubt try to get him to join them. he sighed and closed his eyes as his body turned to stone from the dawn's light.

"A boy." He smiled, "You were... playing with him earlier today. He has something I need and I would like you to bring him here. Alive, preferably, but if dead is the only way you can get him, then you may."
Rebecca nodded, used to these little tasks that Mephisto laid out for them. Cai would be, too. He sent them out for a great many things. Rebecca crossed her arms over her chest as she turned to stone for the day's beginning.

Cai resumed his normal position to meet the day. What could M want so badly? He thought.

Rebecca broke free of the stone when the sun set, pleased to find that nothing had been placed on her during the day, though Cai was covered in spray painted obscenities.

Cai shook off his stone shell. "Stupid kids...." He said with the same attitude that Rebecca had had the night before.

Jason was already free of his stone, completely untouched. he was flying through the sky, keeping his sword on his back. it was his most prized possession.

Rebecca laughed, "I'm going after Speedy McLightningbutt, catch up with me when you get the chance. She waved, taking off into the horizon.
She was soon within earshot of Jason, "Hey!" She called, "Can you pull over? Just want to talk."

Cai flew after her. "Hey! Wait up!"

Jason flew down to a building, keeping a hand on his sword. "what do you want?" he asked watching her closely.

Rebecca stayed in the air, "I said I wanted to talk. Simple enough. Mephistopheles seems to think you have something he wants. I'm trying to make sure you are alive and well when he's got whatever it is. He said he could either have you alive or dead, so either way, he can get whatever it is. I'm just partial to 'alive' myself."

Jason's eyes narrowed and the electrical field covered him almost instantly. "then get away from me now" he said growling at her. "he's not getting anythign of mine' He said glowing blue again and shooting off like a bolt of lightning.

Rebecca cursed under her breath, flying after him at full speed, but suddenly jerking upward like something had hit her in the stomach and falling down with increasing speed until she hit a river below, red rising to the surface, followed by her body, back facing up.

"Rebecca!" Cai called, diving down into the river, looking for her body.

"heaven help me if this is a trap" he muttered, flying back. he grabbed her and pulled her from the river. He got her on shore and looked on her body for the wound.

Cai shot to Rebecca's side. "Are you okay? Can you speak?" He asked franticly.

Rebecca was out, a bullet wound running through her stomach as blood seemed to flow out like the river she had just been pulled out of. Someone nearby probably thought she was a bird. The water from the river had slicked her red hair back against her forehead, as well as left water in her mouth that came out when her head rolled limply to the side.

Cai took off his hoodie and pressed it to the wound to help stop the blood. He took a deep breath then began mouth-to-mouth to try to get the water out of her lungs.
