He slid his foot under the book and lifted it quickly tossing it up into the air. Catching it he flipped through the pages himself. He stared down at the page with the girl. "It looks like she is sad because she is alone, as i am." He said quietly at the end to cover up his own sadness. Flipping to another page he saw the boy, "he holds back his tears to prevent the sight of weakness, so he can maintain his pride."
He continued flipping through. "They are sad cause they are alone, and they are happy to have found each other." He closed the book and put it back onm the shelf. "To not be alone." He turned and walked into another row of books while An's hands buried her face.

An starred at the book on the shelf, "Not alone?" She whispered, turning finally to follow Viorez, "What does 'alone' mean?" She asked. Have been bred and raised in the labs, she had always been 'alone' and it had never bothered her before. Looking back on her sad situation now, though, she felt lucky to have met Viorez.

He flipped through the book he pulled off the stacks. "Alone is when you have no one." he said. "No one that is there in life to make life worth while." He himself was always alone in darkness and pain. He closed the book and looked at the spine, "Relations and Bonds: A guide to friendship." Hew scoffed, why he picked that up he didn't know, maybe it was just a mistake of randomness. he himself wouldn't have picked that up. Would he?

Ana looked at the spine, not sure what it had said until he read it aloud, "You don't want friends?" She asked, her voice drenched in her unintentional disappointment with how things were turning out. She reached up and took down the book he had recently held, "Was I alone in the labs? Them only people I saw there were scientists..." She shivered, feeling the tears coming on, "Oh no..." She put her hands over her eyes, "If I cry something bad will happen Viorez!"

He sighed. "Its not as though i dont want friends." he said. "I was kept against my will for several years in a tomb, i dont trust people." He reached and patted her on the head. "You were probably just as alone as i was." he said trying to cheer her up but doing an obviously bad job of it. "If something bad will happen then please don't cry." His hand on her head becoming gentler and hopefully more soothing to keep her from crying.

Shaking under his gentle touch, Ana fought against the tears and uncovered her eyes. She bit her lip and walked into his chest burying her face in his clothing to keep from being seen in such an embarassing state, "I don't want to be alone." She whispered, a tear sliding down her cheek.
To most a single tear was a sign of strength. To only have to shed one tear and feel better was an amazing thing. On the other hand, Ana's single tear was a chance card. No one would ever be able to predict the outcome and because of this she always worked hard to be cheerful. This particular tears effect was not sudden. Giving a hopeful sign into Viorez's chest she secret wanted nothing to happen but then again she had never been that lucky.
She began to pull away from Viorez when she realized that she was physically incapable of doing so. Like an invisible shield was holding them together, "Uh-oh." She whispered, eyes wide.

It seemed he had failed to make her happy with words as she ran to him. "Don't worry," he said. "You won't be alone as long as you remain with friends." He knew how it felt to be alone so he understood why she was upset. Although he was slightly taken aback when she dug her face into his chest. He really didn't know how to react to this so he kept his hand on her see as though it seemed to console her even slightly. He saw the look of worry in her eyes and peered in to hers. "Whats wrong?" he asked softly trying not to seem over exerting.

"My 'first tear' is a chance card. Something will hap-" She was cut off by all the glass in the entire store shattering. Windows crashed onto the floor, spreading glass to every corner and making the few customers jump out of the way. A girl's scream could be heard from the back of the store asglass continued to break.
Ana screamed. Her eyes wide when she buried her face, once again, in Viorez's shirt. She wondered quickly if she had caused this. Maybe her tear did nothing this time and it was something else. It was unlikely but it happened.

He pulled her into an embrace and said. "Close your eyes." He reached out into the book shelf where a small shadow formed. "Keep still." He whispered as he faded pulling Ana into it. Maybe the cold brush of shadows could calm her down enough to possibly stop all that was happening to the area. The fading wasn't far, just up to the roof of the shop where he stepped out of the shadow of the ledge on the roof.

Ana once again felt herself sucked into that sickening dark oblivion. This time, though, it was not quite so terrible as she felt Viorez's arms around her tightly. She had followed his order to close her eyes so she didn't know where they had gone to, all she knew was that the warmth of the dying sunlight as it fell below the horizon tickled her face and she smiled into Viorez's chest calmly.
The sound of breaking glass that had echoed it's way up and down the street soon halted and from the roof you could hear the buzz of people questioning the recent occurance. Ana had, by now, pulled away from Viorez and was now peering over the edge of the roof, looking down upon the innocent faces that looked for a source to the madness.

He let go of her as she moved away. "I had to have us exit the area." he said as she peered down at the others around the building. "I found it to be in the best interest if we were not seen." He had noticed that the sun was going down and it made him feel safer. Now there would not be a single place he couldn't go. "Are you alright?" he asked her.

Ana smiled and nodded, looking at him full in the face, "I'm fine, how about you?" Her voice echoed in innocence as her wings fluttered, cramped from being held up all the time. A feather broke free and blew in the light wing, getting caught in her hair and entrapping itself as though to cling to its owner just a little bit longer.

He stood and stretched out his back popping the joints. "Im fine," He answered her. He looked at his sleeve, it was torn. He'd slipped, but why? "Not much gets to me." He said obviously referring to the dark void he has to travel through.

Ana didn't take notice of the tear in his sleeve and nodded, her eyes closed as she took in the cool night air that rushed through her blonde hair, "I'd imagine..." She whispered as her hair billowed behind her like curtains in an open window.

"So where should we go?" he asked her. "its not like we can stay here for much longer." They had to leave, this kind of activity would most likely gain the attention of persons he would not like to meet again. "I dont think its safe here anymore."
