"A friend," she replied. "Are you in a lot of pain?"

(..Go ahead and do his scene. I got nothing. )

"Father, mother. Leave, I've got nothing more to do with you. I know you both hate me and want nothing more than to see me burn..." Axl said harshly.

"Where's mommy gonna go?" The boy continued sobbing, his life slowly draining away.

She looked at him, eyes full of sympathy. As per her oath, Wisteria wanted to heal the boy like she’d done for Axl, but him being this close to death.. It would just about kill her. If she tried to heal him and his mother..
The angel shook her head, closing her eyes. “You’re not real..” she whispered, voice rough and soft.

"I-Is she going to heaven...and will I go with her?" The boy pleaded with her, "Mommy was a great person...so, will she fly with the angels?"

She knew full-well humans weren’t flown up by angels, but couldn’t bring herself to tell him. Wisteria made herself nod, biting her lip. “Yes. I know an angel, and will ask him to escort her personally to the gates of Heaven.”

The boy smiled, his body became limp and started growing colder, "T-Thank you....." His voice trailed off, his face was in peace. Soon, all activity from him stopped completely."

On the brink of tears, Wisteria set his body next to his mother’s. ‘This was a test,’ she tried to reason to herself. ‘They aren’t real.. Two innocent humans did NOT die on my watch..’

Electarius's voice rang throughout her hall, "Well done, angel. These two humans had died sometime ago, but I brought them back just to see how you would handle it. You've earned the wing." A golden wing floated down in front of her.

It took every ounce of willpower in Axl's body not to breakdown in tears, or to flip out on his parents.

She gave him a hollow glare, but said nothing.

"Your friend won't last much longer, I'd recommend you go find him, girl." The voice disappeared soon after, as did the bodies of the mother and child.

Axl's hands were shaking, as he grabbed his axe.

Wisteria cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted one of the song lyrics she had heard Axl say before, and listened for any signs of where he was.

Overcome with grief and anger, Axl was unable to hear her. "Mother, father, why do you scorn me so? I've done nothing wrong so far...sure, my music might be a bit loud, but it's nothing evil like you say...nor am I evil for it..."

Hearing his voice, she followed it to where Axl was. The angel spotted him, and approached cautiously as though he were a cornered animal. “Axl?”

Axl didn't reply, on his knees. His spirit was broken, tears streamed down his face.

“Axl,” Wisteria repeated, voice stern and forceful this time.

"What is it?" Axl spoke in a voice harsher than intended, averting his gaze elsewhere, his hat strewn across the hall.

Unfazed by his tone, she walked right up to him, and slapped his face hard.

Axl didn't respond, looking away from her. He stayed right where he was, awaiting for whatever she had to say.

Not speaking, the angel hugged him. "It. Wasn't. Real." She let him go, staring at him with a blank expression. Only her eyes displayed the wariness the encounter with the boy and creature made her feel. Their usual hard and determined shine was now lack-luster, dull, and tired.

Axl hugged her back, "I'm sorry for being so stupid...but, I know for sure that's what they feel... Disappointed in the one that disowned his name for the one of a rocker." Tears streamed down his face.
