Itachi wonder if she would sing like the others he had encountered in the past, but she looked to rowdy, too stubborn to listen to anything at the moment. She was giving up her resolve, the struggle that had continued throughout her body was stopping. It gave him a chance to tighten his grip even further, wondering why she so careless abandoned her human body. It was simply no fun, no excitment, when he were to break her essence bare.

She was like a little canary. Itachi smirked.

Something in the corner of his mind caught his attention as he felt the familiar prescene of someone slowly approaching. The smirk slowly became a sneer, as Itachi soon realize that their objective was quite obvious. Metatron. Would there be more bloodshed today?

And like a predator leaping into the air to snatch a stray bird (canary) from the sky, Itachi's fingers successfully threaded itself in her wings. The pure, holy glow that she was giving off made his form ache, his human heart thumping irregularly before it had slowly started to beat at a pace

DX WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT THE FUCKING WINDOW

It wasn't what one might consider pain, exactly, what HInata felt surging through her the moment that the weasel laid his hands upon her wings. It was more like electricity, but ice cold. But when he snapped it, it all changed into a flame, and everything burned.

She wanted to scream, but Hinata took her lip between her teeth and bit down. She would have tasted blood, but she wasn't human.

She might have felt he wind brushing past her, or the glass clinking against her skin, but she wasn't human.

She might have been afraid, looking down down down, but she'd never known vertigo.

Hinata felt him, like a tangy taste in the back of her throat, and she almost, almost called out to him.

Neji.

"Ne--"

It all came rushing at her.

*has peter pan music stuck in head*

In the seconds that the line of vision between the opening elevator doors was but a sliver, Neji saw it. He was working too fast for the seconds now, wanted to thrust away the doors and get out as soon as possible because he knew what was happening, but couldn't. He, who had never been subject to the laws of this world, was suddenly restrained by them.

There was a sudden crash of glass and silver, and Neji thought he heard something that sounded like his name. And then the doors were open, and though Itachi was there---right there---and Neji was seeing red and feeling the phantom pains of an old wound in his shoulder, his feet carried him past the fallen angel

....I watched peter pan yesterday. >__>

Hinata watched him, all that anger fading against a backdrop of sheer pain and something like curiosity. He'd been angry, but not angry enough to ignore her note. And he was angry now, but he'd--

Saved her.

That brought everything crashing down.

She hid her face from him, pressing it into the shadows between their bodies. She was ashamed, suddenly. He'd told her quite plainly, but she'd been so blind. She'd just been sad for him and...well, she'd been tired of being looked down upon. It would have been nice to do something to make herself proud.

Darn it all to heck.

"Home?" she whispered, her words muffled by shame and her own body.

Muahah. :3

"Yes," Neji said, attempting to push the anger aside because there was going to be pain soon, in that wing. Blood, maybe. And they had to move fast because he could still feel Itachi, standing somewhere in that building, hatred that was not directed anywhere surging in and mucking up the atmosphere. Neji looked up to that window, high and broken, and stood for a second that felt like a minute before he turned to Hinata once more.

He didn't say anything to her. What was there to say, aside from I told you so or Why didn't you listen to me or Is it really that hard to get my attention?

Part of him hoped that she lived with this for a long time. Part of him wanted to say, You belong in Heaven, so stay there.

Instead, he just took her home.
