~I don't own Yugioh~

Just to make things clear my OC will not be paired with any of the Yugioh crew.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kairi was watching Ryou from the heavens the next day and sighed.

She wanted to make this boy happy but knew she could only do so much.

He had such a hard life.

Mother dead, father always away, and a yami who beat him for no reason.

She continued looking down from the clouds.

Ryou was walking down one of the Earth streets slowly obviously thinking about something.

She could only guess what.

"What ya looking at squirt?" a males voice came from behind her.

Kairi turned and spotted her best friend in heaven, Kail.

He was a tall angel with short, spiky black hair and ivy green eyes. He had white angel wings, but they were tinted with black.

Kail used to be a fallen angel or a demon until he met Kairi on the Earth. She had brightened his world and showed him things through the eyes of an angel.

In order to turn a demon into an angel, they had to be kissed by one. An innocent angel who had never been kissed and was still completely innocent.

The white haired angel wanted to do something for the demon and he promised he would change for the better.

She gave the boy her first kiss.

They didn't do anything `intimate' but were closer than best friends.

After that, he did change although his wings would always be tainted with some of the demon emotions that he had to fight off every day.

"I-It's nothing" she stuttered.

He gave her a skeptical look. "You're such a bad liar. One, I was a demon, so I can tell when someone's lying and two" he smiled, "you only stutter when you lie".

She gave him a guilty look and sat down on one of the fluffy white clouds.

He walked over and sat down next to her quietly. "What's up?"

She looked sideways and down at Ryou. "Kail, do you see that boy down there?"

The black haired boy looked down onto the Earth. "The one with white hair? Yeah, I see, what about him? He looks fine to me".

"That boy down there, his name is Ryou. He has no family and he lives with an abusive yami," she said quietly.

"Abusive?" the male angel pondered. He narrowed his eyes at the brown-eyed boy and sensed the human's aura. "He seems fine. No bruises or anything".

"That's because… I…kind of…maybe, went down to Earth and healed him" she said the last part speedily and buried her face into her hands.

Kail jumped up onto his feet. "Kairi, what were you thinking! That's forbidden! You could get in a ton of trouble and possibly be sent to purgatory!"

The white haired angel shivered as that place was mentioned.

Purgatory was a place that you went to be judged. It was like a court for demons and angels. The Archangels decided your punishment depending on the crime you did.

Helping mortals was a high crime if you weren't a Guardian Angel.

"I know, but…"

"No buts Kairi. I won't let you risk your well being down there. It's not safe. What if this kid's yami saw you? The first thing on his mind would probably be what to do with you. He could beat you or rape you and you wouldn't be able to stop him because you haven't even finished your training!" the green eyes angel/demon yelled.

She slapped her hand across his mouth to shut him up. "Kail, be quiet. You're going to cause suspicion if you keep yelling like that".

He glared at her and pulled his mouth away.

"Listen, I know all the consequences of my actions but what's the point of being an angel if you can't help anyone?" she whispered.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her gently. Kail wrapped his wings around her folded ones and her body. "You are an angel because you were meant to be happy and free up here with no worries what so ever."

She looked up at her male friend with innocent blue eyes. "Helping him would make me happy".

"And you staying safe would make me happy" he said, looking deeply into her orbs.

She looked down and blushed slightly.

"Tell me angel. What was the reason you turned me?" he questioned.

She blushed. "You understood me and my love for the Earth".

He ran his fingers gently through her hair. "Exactly. I know how you feel about this Kairi, but there is nothing you can do to stop it".

"That's not fair though," she said bitterly. "The elders forbid anyone to even heal the mortals down below".

He sighed. "If you're really serious about this angel, take guardian classes. Tell the mistress and after you are done basic training you will be allowed".

She shook her head. "It'll be too late! Training takes years and I don't know if Ryou will even be around then! I don't want him to have to go through the same thing I went through when I was alive," she said, tears filling up in her eyes.

Kail didn't know what to say for a minute.

He knew that Kairi had gone through the same thing that Ryou was going through on Earth and that was probably why she wanted to help him so much.

The smaller girl's parents were murdered and she too had a destructive yami that beat her endlessly.

Now her yami was in hell.

"Look at me Kail! I don't want Ryou to hurt but I don't want him to die either" she cried silently hugging the older boy.

The black haired angel sighed. "Kairi, sometimes there's nothing you can do".

She buried her face in the older boys chest and cried.

`I want to help her but there's nothing I can do. I love her too much for her to get hurt or transferred somewhere else' he thought to himself, hugging the smaller angel comfortingly.

A pang of jealousy from his demon half suddenly popped up in his mind. She cared so much for this boy on Earth.

He shook the thoughts from his head.

She cared because she didn't like to see anyone hurt.

"I'm sorry Kail," she whispered to him.

"I want you to promise me tenshi. I need you to promise me that you won't go down there again" he whispered to her, running his fingers gently through her hair.

She looked at the ground for a moment.

"Promise me Kairi"

She nodded resentfully and sorrowfully. "I-I p-promise".

He nodded and smiled. "Come on. I'll take you back home".

She nodded.

They walked home silently, Kail carrying the lighter teen in his strong arms.

The boy though, forgot one important thing.

Kairi only stutters when she lies.
