Nathan shook his head after the rain stopped, feeling as if he had been hit with a mallet. ''Sure as hell felt like it. ''He looked around for a moment, seeing Emily was in a similar situation. The look on her face was different however. Instead of Nathan's relief, she looked like she was sad to see it go. Nathan knew nothing about Emily's past, so he decided to let that go. He then looked to the winged girl, who was just getting up. ''Now's my chance! ''Nathan got up and ran to the girl, hoping he didn't have to put up any more of a fight than he needed to.

He made it to her a few moments later, kneeling down so he could see her face-to-face. He gave her a look that said he wasn't going to hurt her. "Relax...I'm not here to hurt you. I just want to talk." Emily just sat on the ground, depressed that the dream was gone. For the briefest moment in her five years since the incident, she had been happy again. But another part of her realized that she needed to grow up a bit, and wanted her to let go.

She curled up, hugging her legs as she sat on the ground. For right now...she settled for being a child and closed her eyes, letting tears flow down her face unbidden, but relieving.
