He flinched as her hand came before him, as if it were closer than a foot. He jumped as the dog he'd seen before barked. "Mn..." Nervous now, although he wasn't entirely sure why, he struggled to stand, his hand trying to clutch the wall as he unsteadily brought himself to his feet, wings flailing slightly to balance him. Stumbling even against the wall, he leaned his upper body against it, but remained at risk of falling. He felt so heavy, almost solid... He blinked rapidly, looking at the somewhat blurry form of the dog to keep testing his vision.

"Nikita, hush" Her eyes narrowed a bit, though she was not really angry. "Oh, hey..I don't really think.." Before she had finished, Stefan was up. Ana stood up herself and held both hands out, ready to catch him if he did fall. "You really should be sitting down, you know." Nikita perked her ears at him, tail still flying back and forth.

Hearing her, he looked at her now, blinking as his vision cleared. Angels didn't speak aloud, they spoke through telepathy - mostly subconscious telepathy, at that. She was looking at him, and he noted that no one else was around. He frowned then, turning to face her, pressing himself back against the wall as best he could with his wings. Confusion and growing fear flowed into his golden eyes, panic beginning in him. Was he dreaming..? He didn't sleep. Hallucinating? What would make an angel hallucinate? How could this human see him? He remembered the night before.. the hooded figure, the shadows, the cold. His breathing became irregular, his eyes glossy, and he slipped back down to sit. His mind struggled to work out what had happened, failing to answer the questions in his head. If he had had a heartbeat, it would've been accelerated.

Ana took three steps back, her hands still partially raised in case he needed assistance. She glanced around at the ground and stepped over a bit so she would not slip on any more of the blue liquid. The girl knelt down, resting one arm across the tops of her knees. "Look, I promise I won't hurt you. You were unconscious, I just came to see if you were okay." She paused, giving him time to listen, and possibly think her words over. "Are you hurt?" Ana did not know his usual form of communication was telepathy, but she figured that even if he did not want to speak, he would be able to nod or shake his head. Nikita scooted closer and flopped down onto the ground to stare up at the winged person.

He stared at her, briefly looking to her dog as it sprawled out before him. He shook his head slowly at her question. Golden eyes were still wide with mild panic, but he didn't look like he was running anywhere. He didn't trust her; after having watched humans for however long it had been, he had learned how dishonest they could be. And now that a human could see him, wings and all, he wasn't sure what her real intentions were.

Ana smiled and reached over to scratch behind Nikita's ears. "Good. Oh, my name is Ana, and this is Nikita. Okay?" With one fingure she gestured to herself, and then her spunky canine companion. Nikita yawned, ears twitching as they were scratched. Ana scooted back a bit more, noting the look of panic he still held. She was not going to leave him there on his own, but she did not want to scare the living daylights out of him either.

He followed her finger to her and then the dog. Ana, Nikita. "... Mn.." He tried to speak but wasn't sure that he remembered how, so gave up for now. He studied her for a writing utensil and paper briefly, but forgot about it as the rising rays of the sun hit his face. He squinted in the light, pupils constricting into slits, his eyes then looking considerably cat or fox -like with their yellow color. Pulling his gaze away from the sun he glanced down the alleyway, suddenly conscious of being seen by other humans. He pressed against the wall again, wings folding as much as they could behind him, feeling exposed.

Nikita barked again, though it seemed to sound more like a howl than anything else. The Dog stood up and yawned, trotting back and forth a few times to get Ana's attention. Ana sighed, shaking her head a bit. "Oh, be quiet, you." She got to her feet again and approached Stefan. "Here, why don't we get you inside? I'm not too sure people will let those wings just slide by since it isn't Halloween..." She held out one hand to help him up.
