Rusty had to wonder just what the angel was doing.  He suddenly had all these ideas, possiblities for the angel's question.  Maybe.. he would teleport them directly to egypt!  Maybe he was going to scoop Rusty up and they'd fly all the way there (though.. that might take a long time..)!  Who knows, maybe he was just curious as to where the boy wanted to go, and what the boy wanted to see.  He never would have guessed what he was about to be handed though.<br/><br/>The magazine was a favorite, and one that Rusty had gone through a thousand times.  Each word on each page, every inch of every picture.. all were committed to memory.  He could recite the article on the "Mysterious Pyramids" word for word, complete with picture caption and photography credits.  When he expected to see the title page of the article (photograph by Amy Grant), instead he was faced with blowing sand.  His grey, smokey eyes grew large as the image moved, showing him details that a photograph never could.  Through the blowing sound, a shape was looking in the background.  The sun was beating down, and Rusty licked his lips as though he could feel the heat.<br/><br/>"Azrael.. this is.. this is amazing!" His eyes were focused only on the image.  He did not notice the angel lean in to take in his scent, being far too distracted by this wonderous gift.  When he realised the image would change perspective and focus as he wanted it to move, the biggest, brightest, happiest smile he'd ever had broke across his face.  With an expression that was nothing short of pure and raw joy, he looked up to Azrael.  The boys eyes were just a little but misty.<br/><br/>"I.. I don't know what to say.  Just.. thank you.. that's all I can.." He moved forward an inch forward, his body movement as though he were going to hug the angel, but he stopped.  Could you do that?  Just touch one like that?  Rusty didn't know.. he didn't want to break any rules, or have Azrael dissapear on him.  Instead he cleared his throat, and ran a hand through his hair, getting it out of his face.<br/><br/>"Sorry.. I kinda.. I wanted to give you a hug.. I just don't know if you can touch a guardian angel or anything!"
