Azazel and Rowena arrive at the beach and trot up to the entrance, an older wooden pathway that leads almost straight down to the water's forever lapping edge. Azazel only takes a moment to catch his breath and looks at Rowena through his watering eyes. The cold air had dried out his eyes as they ran. The beach is eerily quiet, there is only the sound of the water constantly nipping at the beach's sandy ground. Usually the night air is filled with music from teenage petz having parties, and the distant laughter of young lovers cuddling up on their beach towels, and the sound of cicadas and crickets play a symphony. Tonight though, there was nothing but the waves accompanying the sound of Rowena and Azazel's breath. Azazel paws Rowena gently, motioning his head down the wooden walkway.

She follows him silently, just enjoying the beautiful silence of the night. It's so.. still. A relief after the chaos the had occurred earlier that day. They walk along the wooden walkway until they reach the end. She cautiously places her paw in the sand and sighs. It's held some warmth from the day and it's soft on her foot. She walks out near the ocean. She can smell the sea, mixture of salt and water. It smells wonderful. She sighs her shoulders relaxing. She didn't even realize she'd still been tense until she'd let it go.

the ocean air fills the surrounding atmosphere with a most relaxing aura, adding moisture and chill to the wind. as the two lie peacefully, they attempt to ease their minds from the day's trials.
else where the cloaked figure rests silently, staring up at the evening sky. he coughs a few times before regaining his composure. his company celebrates now in the city over their destructive victory. they have long since removed their disguises, and have long since departed, but he, the ever silent leader remains cloaked. he thinks for a moment of his past, but only for a moment.
"so..." he began to think. "what ever to do next..."
he began to ponder ever harder, for he knew what it was he was meant to do
anger begins to build up inside, a rage that he kept well hidden during his attack.
"azazel..." he spat.
no...no, patience he thought to himself, patience. the pieces were all in place, the plan was right on schedule.

Azazel takes a deep breath of sea air into his lungs. He whips around toward the sand dunes cloaked in night's shadows. I could swear I just heard my...name...No, Azazel, STOP IT! Azazel nonchalantly turns his head back toward the ocean, hoping Rowena didn't notice him acting paranoid again. "So Rowena, what do you think about when you look up into the night sky?" Azazel hoped to distract himself from any lingering apprehension about the day's earlier events by asking Rowena one of the questions he pondered most often himself.

Rowena notices Azazel whip around but decides to ignore it. She heard a whisper too. It was probably just the wind. "Wow, that's a loaded question." She laughs. "I guess I think about anything and everything. From how vast this Universe really is, to my little life down here. The beauty that surrounds us is amazing. Our world is just so awe inspiring that it often take's my breath away. What do you think of Azazel?" She looks to him while he looks at the sky admiring the way his face is lit up by the moon.

Azazel is silent a moment while he continues to looks at the heavens, dotted with what looks like little shimmering diamonds. Taking in a gulp of the fresh air, Azazel speaks in an increasingly relaxing tone, "I think of a lot of the same things you said you think of...I always wonder why I am alive, do I have a true purpose, is there someone right this second looking at the exact same star I am thinking the exact same things...? Those things I ponder almost every night." Azazel closes his eyes smiling, it seems as though he is reminiscing about something. After a few minutes of silence, Azazel continues talking where he left off as if he never stopped, "I wonder why things happen the way they do, you know? For example, why did we meet in the park when we did? Why are we right here, right now, and not a million miles away from one another? Is there a reason as to why we are here, or is it just pure coincidence?" Azazel laughs a little while continuing, "I don't think this world has coincidences in it though to be honest, I think the Universe unravels things the way they do, at the specific time they do in the way everything is intended to happen..."

She smiles at him. "I guess we'll never really know what makes the world work. It could be fait or coincidence or a number of things. But either way i'm glad it happens the way it does." She lays down on the ground and rolls over so she can look at the stars better. Then pats the ground beside her so Azazel will lie with her. "But so many things happen so perfectly in our world that i'm not sure it could all be coincidence. But regardless of how it happened Azazel i'm glad it did. That day in the park was one of the best days of my life." She looks at him again. "I wonder how many petz ever get along this well when they first meet. it really has been amazing."

Azazel accepts Rowena's invitation and lies next to her on the sand. The waves continue to lap the shore, creating a lullaby of rhythmic music. Azazel stares up at the sky; he notices how much he is relying on the Earth to support his tired body. He closes he eyes for a moment letting Rowena's soft breathing and the ocean's chorus almost lull him to an inviting sleep. A cold breeze sweeps over his body making his hair stand on end. Azazel starts a bit and realizes quickly where he is. He smiles contented with his realization. Azazel moves his eyes toward Rowena, being careful not to move his body. He takes notice that she is staring at the sky in somewhat of a trance. I think she may kill me for this...but she's in the perfect position...Azazel whips up onto all four paws, sand flying in every direction, some sticking to Rowena's plush coat of fur. There is no time to even think before Azazel has Rowena thrown over his back as he runs to the ocean's chilling grasp. Azazel plunges head first, suit and all, Rowena in tow, into the next enveloping wave. Azazel laughs so hard, his stomach hurts, the rush from the frigid water gives him energy, he paddles to where he can stand and hits the ground running, anticipating Rowena to give it to him for acting like a puppy.

Rowena gives a screaming laugh and shudders as her body hits the cold water. "You little..." She trails off laughing and swims after him until she reaches the sand. She races after him tearing up the sand around her. Still laughing she catches up to him and jumps on his back. "Piggy back ride!" She declares with a shout and grabs on with her arms and legs. She shivers a bit as the cool air passes over her fur helping to dry her off a bit. She continues to make an odd scream laugh as they race around. The joy that radiates off of her is clear to anyone around them.

Azazel continues to run, loving the feeling of the shore's Winter air slap his face. I feel so amazing, never in all of my years have I felt like this...Azazel comes to a slow walk after a few more minutes of running. He reaches behind him and gently places Rowena back on the sand. He turns around and looks her in the eye smiling. He touches her face with one paw as if he was handling the finest china. "Let's get you home, I don't want anyone worrying about you."

She leans her cheek into his paw and smiles. Her eyes shine as she looks into his own. "Alright I guess we can go home," She smiles. "But lets walk slow." She gives a tiny laugh and looks at him. "I don't think I've ever been this happy." She whispers. "You really are amazing you know." She turns away with a blush at her admissions. She begins to shiver. "It really is rather cold here isn't it?" She changes the subject embarrassed by what she had said.

Azazel notices her embarrassment and puts his paw around her back, "There's no reason to blush you know, 'cause you've already made me blush about a hundred times since I met you." Azazel looks at the ground momentarily and gives a dry chuckle, "Um, I hope I'm not too out of line with this, but, uh, Rowena, could I call you my girlfriend?" Azazel looks back up at Rowena with a shimmer in his eyes, the Winter's moonlight spilling onto his jet black fur.

She smiles. "I'd love if you'd call me your girlfriend. So long as I can call you my boyfriend." She winks with a laugh. Her eye's sparkle at him in happiness. She sighs a content sigh. Wow, it really is so quite out here. Kind of creepy quite now. She gives a look behind her to the area where she heard that noise from earlier but then shakes her head. I'm just hearing things. I'm sure it's fine. But still the uneasy feeling in her stomach stays.

"Of course you can call me your boyfriend," Azazel smiles a wide toothed grin. Without seeming to notice Rowena's uneasiness, he takes her by the paw as he leads the way back to her house.
