Sage raised a brow as the creature spoke, yet with a slash of his blade. Sage felt his Aura of Fear cast away from him. His pupils returning to their circular form, as the angelic creature stepped down from the hood of the destroyed vehicle. As he approached Sage moved his hands from his pockets, to the twin nine inch slightly curved trench blades holstered on the back of his jeans. As the angelic creature spoke, Sage was already working to get his move on.
His gaze flickered to the car,"You destroyed my mode of transportation.." he spoke softly, his ability as a Fire Elemental arising. He was already heating the engine up as he spoke, he eyes returning towards the angel. He simply had to buy a few more seconds of time, as the creature spoke of his life being worthless then mortals he had somehow put in danger. As he thought about what the angelic being spoke of, he remembered the broken door."Oh, that family will live. I havn't even harmed them." he rolled his eyes. As he looked at the creature, his trench blades within his grasp.
As he took a breath, Now! The time had come, the engine was on the verge of explosion. He wondered what he ment about Gods.. Sage smirked,"I'm here to kill the man who killed my mother.. And no one is going to get in my way!" Sage leaned forward, before turning and taking a few steps towards his left. Sage had noticed an alley there, as he dove his form rolling forward into the darkness of the narrow alley. Moments later, BOOM! the engine had erupted into flames and blazing junk pieces. His form watching as metal and car parts flew down the street scattering about, happy he had taken refuge in the moments before the explosion he was safe. A pillar of smoke rising as well as flames blaring out dangerously, as Sage looked around the corner of the alley to see if he had caught the dual blade wielding creature in the blast.

Kyrian smiled a little, noticing that the female had a look of one who was hearing yet not listening. She obviously did not completely believe him and was simply acting. However, whether or not she accepted the information was up to him; his job was just to tell her.
The male turned towards the endpoint of the alleyway in the direction which the other man from earlier had went. Casting a look back over his shoulder, Kyrian simply said "I heard the man from earlier, the one who killed this thug, mention a Hidden Rose," while walking towards the exit from the narrow alleyway. He had no problem with the light elemental being behind him since there was probably no way she could sneak an attack in behind him; her little light trick was a ranged attack that would give away its presence as soon as it was used, and her walking was very audible compared to his light footfalls. Honestly, keeping her with him would probably be more of a danger to him than fighting her.
However, she seemed to know something about this Hidden Rose place, which would help him find the man from earlier. As he reached a main street which the alley branched off from, he turned back to the light elemental once more. "Well, Phoebe? Hurry up. Oh, and tell me everything you know about this Hidden Rose." The waited for her to catch up when something suddenly disturbed the night... A loud explosion, as though a bomb went off or a car engine overheated, or something.
The darkness elemental instantly turned back around, in the direction of the noise as he saw a bright light and smoke rising into the air what seemed to be a few blocks away. He turned back, torn between going to the source of chaos or waiting for the light elemental. The male sighed in frustration as he knew that he would have to go check it out in case someone was hurt or in danger. "I'm going to the explosion! Catch up with me as soon as you can!" The man began to run towards the source of the explosion, staring at the roof of a very tall building across the street as his body disappeared in the middle of the street. He reappeared on top of the building, in a crouch, and looked out towards the cause of the disturbance.
His eyesight was not above a human level, so he could not make out anything, though he did spot the great flames rising from the wrecked metal cab. The elemental closed his eyes and took a deep breath before opening them once more, determination in his his violet hues as he raced towards the edge of the roof and leaped from it, his form vanishing once more as he looked towards another tall building that was across the street from the wreckage.
The male was already watching the male closely and the other male gave away every sign of a devious attack. The flicker of his eyes towards the car gave away the direction of the forth coming attack. Then the male spoke, clearly stalling for time and then dove out of the way towards an alley. Being a supernatural being, his agility and reflexes where already higher then the elemental's plus he had trained to increase them already. So his next move would seemed to be almost magical to the elemental, but it was in fact based upon simplicity and simple ability. The angel watched where the male was diving towards, and teleported there while the male was still in motion. With swords already in hand, he appeared where the male was moving towards the alley with swords held up and extended towards the males neck. He said nothing to give himself away to the other male.
He glared at him, thinking it would be better to kill this male but if he managed to save himself from this he may let the male live. He didn't have anything against him despite the fact that he had just attempted to kill his own personage. It was a toss of the coin right now. To kill the male, or not to kill the male. It would all depend upon his reactions and attitude. Although the goal had not been to kill the male originally, it was all up for grabs now. His enormous six and half foot wings block the rest of the alley preventing the male from escaping down that direction while outside the alley there was an enormous bonfire in the left over remains of the demolished vehicle.

As the male turned to the exit of the alleyway, Phoebe cast one last glance to the dead body that laid on the ground, before pivoting lightly on her heel and following after him. She was wary of trusting a stranger, especially when being found next to a body, but she had taken worse risks before. She has spent her whole life sneaking through the shadows, and years of it killing off people. That required lots of risky situations, obviously. She had long ago accepted that a long life was not in her future. But she had lasted this long, and she planned on lasting at least a decade longer.
Kyrian looked back at her, talking about the Hidden Rose. She observed his body. He paid careful attention to keeping his footsteps light. And although Phoebe had become naturally lighter on her feet after years in her profession, she actually made herself louder, like a normal person. She didn’t want to give away any sorts of skills, and it would be better to assume she couldn’t sneak up on him. She probably shouldn’t reveal the multitude of weapons hidden on her body either, as so far he seemed to have taken no notice of them.
She was new to Italy, she did not know much. But she knew of the Hidden Rose. Following those thugs since her arrival in the country had led her to the place. That didn’t mean she would reveal everything she knew. In fact, the attitude, the demanding manner of this man irked her slightly. But she remained silent about that. Let him act how he wished, she didn’t care. All she cared about was completing her goal. And he was part of that… For now. Afterwards, well, she would see what would happen, but plans already began to formulate. Would this man be a good ally? Would he be of any use to her? Did he deserve to die? Phoebe rarely killed those who did not deserve it, unless they posed a threat to her or her cause. She rolled her eyes as he treated her rudely. She was not being slow, she was right behind him. She merely kept distance as most people would feel wary to have someone literally breathing down their neck. Plus, there were more advantages if it came to a fight, with this small distance between them.
She opened her mouth, ready to tell him a bit of information, when the explosion rang out, hurting her ears. She watched as he ran off, and broke into a sprint herself. Finally, her full capacity began to show. She sprinted as lightly and quickly as a gazelle. She did not overtake Kyrian, but he had had a fair distance and start in the first place. Plus, he had just disappeared in the middle of a street.
She was silent, no longer letting obvious footfalls ring out. Before she had wanted her presence known to the attackers, to try and spawn a reaction. Now it was about stealth, not wanting to attract the attention of the cause of the explosion. She soon came across flames, and kept close to the walls and the shadows. She kept a safe distance between herself and the little show, although she had to stay closer to be able to see. Watching with interest, she waited silently.

Sage turned as he looked out the the flames, they held no fear for him. His orbs slowly trailed over the flaming rubble, as he found that his opponent was gone. His orbs narrowed, he had hardly suspected his attack would would work upon the creature that was clearly not human. He had given away signs as a test yet it was still not comforting that the winged creature was around. His first thought was the skies but that would be a bit predictable for the winged creature.
Sage's fingers gripped the hilts of his trench blades, a shuffle of step behind him and flurry of wind movement which could have been mistaken as breeze from the explosion. No, it couldn't be the wind was coming from the wrong direction. A tingle upon the back of his neck as if something cold loomed a mere hair length away from the back of his neck. His teeth gritted, he hadn't expected any less from the other male. Sage moved pivoting upon his right foot as an axis, his left arm brought up in a ninety degree angle. His wrist was bent inwards, as his trench blade smashed against the katana knocking the blade away.
Sage continued until his finished his circle completely facing the male, as he took a step back and looked at the male. His fingers remained loose and yet they held the deadly weapons with a mastery demonic in nature. Sage relaxed his stance a bit,"If we continue this battle it is possible that humans will die." his orbs narrowed slightly,"Is your life worth more then the mortals?" a brow perked, as he looked at the male.

Kyrian looked down at the wreckage and noticed a male standing in a nearby alleyway, a few feet from the exploded car, looking for something in the flames. Then, another male appeared behind him... Wait, that was no normal person, were those wings? Whatever it was, it appeared to be holding blades out towards the other male.
Kyrian vanished once more and reappeared on top of the roof of one of the buildings that created the alley. From this distance he could see that the creature holding his blades out was an angel, a race that he had only come across once before. And the other being was the male from earlier who spoke of a 'Hidden Rose.'
As the darkness elemental watched, the human-like-supposed-elemental male pulled out two trench blades from his back pockets and pivoted upon his right foot, twisting about and knocking the angel's blades off course. Although, if the angel wanted him dead, he could have done something more profound. The blades seem to only serve as a warning.
For now, Kyrian would stay out of the conflict and try to determine who was in the wrong here. However, if it came to it, he would not hesitate to become involved.
The angel watched the male as he spun around, swinging one trench blade in an attempt to knock away both of his swords. Sad, is exactly what it was. The male four times weaker then he was, with a smaller knife and was attempting to knock away not one but TWO of his shamshir style swords. He allowed the first blade to be knocked to the side, however he still had his second blade that he had been holding in the exact same fashion as the first and with that he lunged forward with the weapon to pierce the male's heart. His other weapon slashed back across the male's stomach in a motion to disembowel the being. As his agility was four times that of the male he was facing off against, this attack would seem almost as a fluid motion following the simple strike to his sword to knock it away, happening in almost the blink of an eye.

((Sorry about the delay, I got quite busy. You could have skipped over me, if you had wished.))
From her point of view, she could not see everything. The figures, due to the flickering of the raging flames, did not have very set faces, and almost seemed hidden in shadows. But she could still see the actions of the two strange men, although Phoebe had no idea where Kyrian had disappeared to. From what she could tell, both were on the offense, and their weapons glimmered fiercely in the flickering light. The one man was particularly odd, large black appendages growing from his back. They looked almost like… wings. But that was impossible, wasn’t it? Was this man just some weird cosplayer? Running around with wings, causing explosions, brandishing weapons, etc. Maybe it was some psycho imitating a character. Or maybe he was exactly what he appeared to be… an angel… or a demon.
That Kyrian boy had spoken of creatures Other than themselves. Phoebe still didn’t believe him, but her mindset allowed for the possibility of angels and demons, alongside the psychic humans that they were (or so she was convinced). Maybe there was an afterlife, maybe there weren’t just her beautiful orbs. It was all quite fascinating. Usually Phoebe would leave the scene similar to this one, if it weren’t for the angel-demon. So she stayed, trapped by her fascination to anything Otherworldly.
The man, foolish thing, whipped out two blades, engaging in a fight with the winged being. It seemed he was skilled, expertly knocking away one of the angel’s two katanas. Still, the winged being surely could do better. He was Otherworldly, after all! Plus, the man was stupid, parrying one blade away while two were pointed at him. Did he have a wish for death, perhaps? If he did, the winged being seemed to grant it, using it’s second weapon to lunge through the body, and his first to slash him. Phoebe was quite shocked. But watching the man die snapped her out of her hypnotized state of an observer. She slowly started to back away. She wished to not die at the hands of this surprisingly fast thing.
