I understand people make mistakes, as do I, but if you spell every second word wrong, I'll beat you to death with a blunt stick... No pressure...)
Large wings were perfectly visible across the fields, the grass, the low laying plants. The white feathers contrasted the green of the grass, making Sleven seem almost as if his surroundings were two dimensional, and he were three dimensional. Which more or less translates the fact that he jumped out, even as he sat. This, of course, made him seem more out of place then usual.
As always, he wore the black jacket of his that covered only small triangles of his chest and abdomen, leaving the rest bare for the world to see. It had been the best fit for the large wings bound to his back, and had no further purpose to keep his back warm, as he could not where shirts. His pants seemed old and tattered, which they were, and were also too large for him, making them baggy around his legs. Strangely, they fit perfectly around his waistline, even as they hung low on his hips.
Sighing, the arch angel sat on his back side, wings spread, almost in a self sheltering expression. A cough broke the silence around him, while he rubbed his throat subconsciously, mumbling something about catching a cold.
This was the perfect place. The perfect place to just relax, to let his mind body and soul lay in ease and peace. A small smile lit up his features, to the point where the whip like tail which usually remained hidden, flipped around his legs some in all absentness.

Sitting down on the ground, under a lone tree, was a white kougra. She had teal hair and blue eyes. She didn't have any pupils which was odd. She didn't have any stripes either. What an odd kougra. Her white cat like tail swayed back and forth. Her single demonic wing was pressed tightly against her back. She leaned against the tree, her knees bent a bit. Her hand was held out, a butterfly had landed on her hand to rest.
Nanostino was completely still. She stared at the butterfly with no emotion. Suddenly the butterfly seemed to have frosted over. Meaning the butterfly was slowly turning into ice. How could this be happening? It almost seemed impossible...but not to Nan. It happened all the time. One touch and she would freeze you in an instant. She didn't mean to do it purposly...it just happened. She couldn't help that her father had cursed her with such a power.
The immortal kougra was wearing a long black dress, the sleeves had been cut so they looked like arm warmers. She wore black boots that only reached her ankles. This outfit seemed to suit her best for some reason. It just went with the whole 'cold' look.
She let the butterfly slip out of her hand, it landed on the ground and broke into millions of tiny pieces. She started to frown slightly. "Why father?" she whispered, "why would you do such a thing to your only child?" She closed her eyes and sighed.

Sleven could feel it. Though he wasn't exactly sure what 'it' was. Large angelic wings ducked down, allowing him to view the area around himself. Though he did so subtly, just in case it was someone after him, he did not want to tip them off that he had learned of their presence. Somehow, the presence did not feel as if she - Yes, he knew it was a female - had noted him around, either that or she meant him no harm whatsoever, and simply had moved on to some other area of the field.
All the same, curiosity got the better of him, which had driven him to his feet, and more or less /made/ him move towards the source of these strange energies. What was he to find? The only details he had managed was female. A troubled female. Beyond that there was nothing. Not one more little clue or detail. Just a faint feeling.
Tucking his wings onto his back more so, and out of his way, he continued slowly and silently towards Nanostino, green eyes dancing to find her. Somehow, he seemed to have a knack for finding troubled females.

Nanostino was bored, and when she was bored she always decided to test out her powers. To train herself to control them. She slowly stood up. She waved her hand and suddenly the pieces of the broken butterfly started to float around her. She then snapped her fingers and suddenly the butterfly reformed into a crystalized butterfly. The butterfly flew towards her and onto her hand. She smiled slightly.
"Now listen closely little one" she began, "thy memories to the darkness they shall flow...no longer will you be a butterfly of god's creation...you are now a crystaling. Spread your wings and fly away..." The butterfly seemed to obay her commands and fluttered away. She continued to smile. Anything that turned to ice by her hands were refered to as crystalings for they were given an artificial life which would eventually burn out...unless they moved to a colder area. This area wasn't cold enough for the butterfly to live in...it would probably have to go to the north pole or a mountain of some sort to survive.
Nanostino stopped smiling. Her eyes narrowed. She could sense the presence of someone...and the person wasn't normal. It wasn't a mortal...so perhaps it was one of her own? An immortal being sent to earth to help or destory the earth. She pretended not to care, but she was keeping her guard up for now. Just incase something bad was going to happen.

Sleven could feel himself moving closer, as if he were being drawn to Nanostino, and could not help but head in her general direction. This had usually worked for him in the past, he could find them. The people whom called out to him, whether they realized it or not. Of course, most people were not aware he could feel their pain and sufferings, nor that he had appeared to aid them. Well, none did, actually. How could they know? How could they possibly understand how he lived? What he was?
Across the grass, he could no spot the white Kougra, or her form, at least, he was coming up from her left side, and was a fair distance away at this point. Clearing his throat, he circled around more so, to the point where he would be approaching her from the front, simply because he assumed she would take that better then him sneaking up from the side lines. Most people did not appreciate that at all.
As he got closer to the female, his curiosity grew, though he smiled in a friendly fashion, to make her feel welcome. To prove that he was not a threat.

Nanostino could feel his presence come closer and closer. He seemed drawn to her. She could see him in the distance. He seemed to be smiling which was odd. She still couldn't tell of he was a threat or not. She waved her hand over her pendent, it started to take form of a staff. She held it with both hands, it was in front of her. She stared at him with no emotion. She would wait before attacking, she was only protecting herself...and she was protecting him.

Sleven slowed his pace, brow rose at the female whom was so quick to draw a weapon. Eventually, he stopped, placing both hands over his head in a manner which suggested he meant her no harm. Friend not foe. However, this made him a tad edgy, so he was sure to keep his sense keen. To have tabs on her at all times. Just a percaution. But he had already died once, and doing so again was not something which he heavily favoured.

Nanostino's eyes narrowed. "What is an angel like yourself doing in a land like this?" she asked, "walking around with your type of power and title, you're a walking target for the hallows" She seemed to have read him like an open book. Since she was immortal she knew the talk of the gods. "You are known as the Arch Angel named Sleven are you not?" she asked him.

Sleven rose a brow in question. Ah, he had greatly underestimated this female, apparently, as she seemed to know several things about him. Which made him a tad... Nervous, to say the least. However, he did not show it, merely crossed his arms over his chest, giving his head a light nod. "Yes, I am Sleven," He answered, glancing subconciously to his wings. The angel bit wasn't that hard to guess, I suppose. Though his name? He shook his head to clear it of it's thoughts, angelic wings opening as he in turn cleared his throat.
"I am here to bring assistance onto those who need it," He responded. A simple answer, though a true one none the less. However, he did elborate, "I deal in second chances and amendment." Sleven concluded, eyeing the female with particular interest. "And you know this... How?"

"I hear things" she said, "when you're immortal you tend to learn things about the higher power...and you happen to be with the higher power if I'm not mistake" She closed her eyes. "You're not in the top ranks but being an Arch Angel...that's a very high rank compaired to some" she replied. She smirked slightly and ran her fingers through her hair.
"May I ask a question?" she asked him, "if you don't think it's rude of me to ask a semi-personal question" The wind was starting to pick up a bit. How odd...

"Yes, it is..." Sleven said simply. Meh. Arch angel was the highest rank of angel, there were other divisions of creatures higher them him, however. More powerful then himself, by how much he may never know. Runnign his fingers through his matted hair, Sleven studied the female in silence, before his head gave a single nod. "You may..." Permitting her to ask her question, his tail made one of it's rare appearances by slithering down and around his leg. She was immortal, what could she possibly want or need to know of him? And besides... Whom exactly was she?

Nanostino looked around. "If you are meant to help others why are you here in a place like this?" she asked. The wind died down. She didn't pay any attention to his tail. Her tail was still. This immortal kougra was odd...not to have stripes. Most of them did, so they could resemble the mighty tiger. She looked around once again. "I haven't seen a mortal in these parts for days now...then again I haven't seen anybody at all' she added.

"Even angel's need time away from it all." Sleven pointed out, a brow raising slowly at her. Was she under the impression that angels never slept? Never spent time away from the job. "I was having some alone time." He continued, hands falling easily to his sides as he sighed. "I just felt the need to get away from the sufferings of other's. Here, there is little which feels pain or sorrow." Sleven concluded, wings furling on his back in an absent fashion. Every now and then, he had to move them, to keep them from putting too much pressure on his shoulders and thus causing his shoulders to seize up in pain.

"I see then" she replied, "then again I don't hold no title...which is good" She closed her eyes. "Having the weight of responsibilties on my back is too much of a burden...then again there is more than one Arch Angel so the work is spread out amongst them" she shrugged. She then opened her eyes. "Excuse my rambling...I tend to do that sometimes" she apologized, "a habit I guess" She stretched her only demonic wing. Thank god she only had one wing...

"Having a purpose is better then merely dwelling in heaven for the rest of my immortal life." Sleven simply told her, noting her one demonic wing, his expressionless face turned to her's. Sure he wandered, though was not rude enough to ask such a question. Instead, he cleared his throat, "And you are?" He instead ask. Which was one of the many things he were wandering at the moment. Cracking his neck, he shook his head lightly to some random thought he had before finally returning his gaze to Nanostino once more.
