Demons and Angels have fought for too long , the prolonged war having devastating effects on both sides, leaving them deprived of magic and with dying populations. Heaven and Hell has had enough, sending both demons and angels to earth in an isolated forest in Australia, the most dangerous continent on Earth, with limiters, limited stamina and weaker magic making them have to depend on others. This is to form bonds that will hopefully end their war, an example of peace a sample before going larger and larger, though there are still some who oppose this peace….
Story Arc

“If that’s what you’re looking forward to seeing in an angel then good luck with that most of them are more judgmental than me or even ruder, I can tell you that from experience alone.” Celest says while glaring at Jaya. She notices the rabbit and decides to pick up a nearby rock and throw it close to the rabbit causing it to run off. “Aww..man seems like it ran off” she says trying to hold back a smile, she mainly did the act to scare off the rabbit she really wasn’t in the mood to see something happen to it.
-
Caligula nodded, “It would be more convenient if there were more angels for me as well.” He sighed, running a hand through his hair, “But this should be good enough for the time being.” He began walking between the two of them, “Australia is known for drunkards, right? I wonder if there’s a place to get a good scotch around.” He glanced at the two of them, “It might be best to look around the area and see the lay of the land.”
-
“Isn’t it a bit too early into the day to be thinking about drinking already?” Celest said looking a Caligula questionably, wondering how can a person think about wanting a drink when the day just started. “And if we’re gonna go exploring the land or whatever let’s at least try and map it out as we go” she said not wanting to end up lost later on.
-
Caligula chuckled, “Drinking late is a waste of the night, it’s better to waste time during the day.” he said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out his notebook, “I’m no artist, but I’m sure I can make something halfway readable” he said and began walking, holding his arms his hands behind his back, tail gently swishing back and forth as he walked.
-
“It’s better to have your mind clear then to just waste it with drinking but if that’s how you float then do what you gotta do” Celest said while pointing her staff at Caligula. “Halfway readable isn’t enough, let me do it I can at least draw and make a readable map” Celest says holding her hand out to Caligula.
-
Caligula hesitated momentarily before placing the notebook in her hand, “I can never get work done during the day,” he said, putting his hands in his blazer pockets, “I know its irresponsible and a habit I should probably kick, but it makes the day go by faster if I spend it drinking and sleeping.” He said, beginning to walk again, “Operating like that, I can concentrate more on what I need to do, although now that things have changed, I suppose its a good time to try switching habits…”
-
Celest quickly began sketching the areas that they have covered so far to as much detail as she can cover. “Spending the day drinking and sleeping sounds like being lazy or some type of loser, I think you really gotta change those habits but  it seems like this is something that’s been going for a while so I suppose you’ll probably stick to being a sad demon drinking the day away.” Celest said taking her time and looking over the map for any mistakes since she was having a bit of a hard time concentrating since most of it was going towards her transformation.
-
As Celeste spoke, a smile gradually built on Caligula’s face, as she finished talking, he began laughing, a deep, genuine sort of laugh from the pit of his stomach. It took him a moment to calm himself down enough to speak, “Ah, sorry… sorry,” he said through the final lasting chuckles, “No one’s been so frank with me for a long, long time,” he wiped a tear from the corner of his eye, “I can’t remember the last time anyone’s called me a loser like that.” He closed his eyes and shook his head slightly, putting his hands in his pockets and regaining his usual composure, “Although, you’re not wrong, of course. Objectively, perhaps I would just be a sad old man, wouldn’t I?” He said with a nonchalant smile.
-
Jaya looked at the two with a smirk, “Aw, you two are bonding over nothing. How sweet, but you know what would have been sweeter, some bloodshed.” Jaya licked his lips at the thought, the rabbit having activated his hunger. Throughout the two’s discussion Jaya had been looking around some for a meal. After all he’s not allowed to eat them.
-
“Yeah you pretty much are one already” Celest said smiling. “Weren’t you just advocating for peace? Unless perhaps your true colors as a violent demon are starting to show, maybe this mission is too much for you to take on.” Celest said smirking at Jaya.
-
Jaya followed a bird with his eyes flipping his knife a few times before throwing it at the bird. “Yeah but that was before I was hungry.” Jaya picked up the kill and looked it over, small but it’ll do as a snack, maybe. “Also I am still advocating for peace, we can still fight…. platonically. I will follow this mission through but no one said we couldn’t fight just that it’s not good for a community and that we’ll get punished.” Jaya understood that he seemed to frequently switch sides but he also needed to show early on his unstable personality for their safety and understanding. He’s not a one track minded person.
-
Celest looks at Jaya with disgust for killing the bird, “If you were really that hungry you could’ve said something instead of acting like you’ve lost your senses” she said before taking off her bookbag and taking out some snacks. “Or at least come prepared for this mission.” She said smiling a bit and feeling glad the she was at least somewhat prepared.
“I don’t mind a little platonic fights here and there, not that you’ll last too long anyway” Celest says confidently at Jaya.
-
Jaya shrugged, “But that would be boring. Plus hunting in the human world is fun.” Jaya snagged a snack and ate it in a second. He rolled his eyes at the backhand comment, “Says the sassy angel, have you ever actually fought a real battle, have you angel?” Jaya bit off his kills head and with one nasty crunch, swallowed it. He sent a bloody smile to the angel just to tease.
-
Celest still kept a disgusted look at Jaya, “Oh course I’ve fought a real battle, I’ve been in a couple wars myself.” She says confidently before putting her snacks back into her bag.
-
“Only ‘a battle’ wow I am so afraid.” Jaya mocked as he rolled his eyes and continued with the small snack, taking his time and slurping up the blood, it was a nice little snack.
