"What are you doing, Mikari?"
I turned back to look at one of the other angels, a faint expression on their face. Their eyes were clouded with timidity, sadness. Fear. I didn't answer. "Mikari, you're not planning to go with them, are you?" My friend seethed when she said 'them'. I merely blinked, staring at the group quietly from afar.
"Why wouldn't I?" I answered as my friend's eyes widened.
"Mikari, there's nothing that you can do about this place! Everyone is already corrupt; you can't possibly change their minds." I nodded my head. I knew that well. Even they had begun to get to me. "Besides, you may not be able to return!" she said, her eyes softening. She took a few slow steps forward, blinking away tears.
I paused. Had I really thought this over? Perhaps not. But the day I remained in Sankuchuari while it was like this was the day we all disappeared. Was I really willing to risk this for the cause of reviving the pure hearts I once knew?
Yes, I was. "I know," I answered, staring at my friend, "and I'm sorry." She cletched her fists together as angry tears formed at her eyes. "Fine--go to hell!" I did not cry. I simply stepped backwards, held my breath,...
and willed myself to fall into the Remnant.
A moment later I was gone; a mere fragment of the angel's memory. She stepped into the spot I vanished from, lowered her head, and sobbed, tears streaming out of bright azure eyes.
"Goodbye," she whispered.
