His eyes filling with tears, Rex watched his best friend lose her most prized possession... her wings. "I don't understand. Why do you sound so serious and why are you willingly giving up your wings?" But one thing he always knew, his friend had a deeper understanding of mystical things. Maybe her wings were just gone temporarily? He hoped.<br/>"My memory? Ohhh, I get it. You found me as I left, then knocked me out", rubbing his throbbing head again... although the pain was fading quickly. "Then you pulled me here so I'd wake up, able to have some sweets?", for Aoi always teased him about his sweet-tooth.<br/>Holding up his hands in mock surrender, "OK, I give! I won't leave. I have no idea how you knew, or where to find me.. but I won't leave."<br/>"Why did you have to give up your wings? Will they return?" Suddenly he felt as though he had a thousand questions, some of which he couldn't even grasp.. making no sense to him, but they were quickly vanishing from his mind.<br/>Sitting, "Wow, I'm horribly confused. None of this makes any sense."<br/>Seeing this new orb appear, his first thought was, 'Another one?' Then, tasting inside his mouth, "Why do I have the feeling I just ate one of those?"<br/>Seeing the tears fall from her eyes, Rex reached out, cupping her face with his hands... "Darling, why did you lose your wings?"
