"Yuzurunakatta Tenshi (Surrendered Angels)" An erotic story by Laurel and K-kitty Tio is owned by K-kitty; his portion of the story was written by her, and Rain is owned by Laurel; her part of the story was written by her. It was originally done in role-play style and has been converted into story style for easier reading (for once ~_^). This story contains graphic sexual situations. Please do not read if you are not of legal adult age. Just to clarify, Rain is half human and half Neptunian alien, which will explain some things you'll encounter reading the story. I also wanted to put a note in here about the Japanese title--couldn't find a regular, often used version of the past tense of "surrender" in Japanese, even though I checked several dictionaries. So I made my own, using one dictionary that said that "nakatta" was added to verbs to make them past tense. I'm not sure how right that is, nor if the grammar is correct, but hey, it's just a story. I'm no Japanese expert. ^_^ Anyway, it's as close as I could get based on info I found. * * = emphasis ** ** = thinking Looking for Penelope... Rain wandered down the street, looking in shop windows. A tattoo shop...a dress store...ancient medicinal healers... Rain stopped at the window of an adult book store, surprised to see what graphic stuff made it to the window. Wide-eyed, she blushed and turned away. On to the train station, to check Osaka... Finding her seat fairly comfortable, Rain settled back to wait it out, looking all her young years. At the Osaka Train Station .... Among the throngs of respectable travelers at the terminal, there were always a few street people, bustling and hustling through the crowds... even if not as openly as they would in the markets or on the darker streets. One such young man wearing ripped up jeans, a T-shirt from an alternative band, and an old suit jacket, was wandering through the crowd. On occasion he'd stop and talk to someone, trying to convince someone to buy something or hire his services as a guide. The aromas from the coffee shop at the station were driving him crazy... it must have been *days* since he'd eaten. The growl in his stomach confirmed this, so he moved away from that area. The crowds had thinned out, and he noticed a few guys he'd rather not have to tangle with right now, so he moved down the stop a ways. He could hear the next train coming. He brushed off his second hand jacket, ran his fingers through this black hair--pleased that he'd been able to sneak in to a restroom this morning and wash it--then turned to the train with a predatory smirk. Rain stepped off the train quickly, knowing that her sister liked hanging in train stations because there were crowds, places to just sit and think and get lost. She glanced around at everyone, searching for Penelope's huge mound of red hair. **Maybe the coffee shop...** She had no idea how much she looked like a confused tourist. Tio looked up and caught a glimpse of a *perfect* mark. Tiny, shy, frail.... and completely confused. He grinned to himself and swallowed that... feeling.... down into his gut and walked her direction. He adopted a more serious face, and took the time to straighten his nosering. Tio slowed his pace and approached her carefully, like a skilled hunter. When he got close to her, he dipped his head and took one more careful step. "Um.. excuse me, Miss?" Still not too close to her, Tio stopped and looked at her, breaking into a slow sheepish grin, eyes a little wide and friendly looking. "I don't usually do this, seein' how I'm not the hottest property going right now, but you sure do look lost..... can I help you with something?" Until the boy approached, Rain had been looking all around for her older sister. There sure were a lot of people here. She became aware that someone was talking to her, trying to get her attention, so she took the time to look at him on, "I don't usually do this..." Rain blushed a little. He was so cute! And he was talking to her! What was such a rebel type talking to her for? "Oh, thank you, but I'm not lost. I'm just looking for my sister. She sometimes hangs out in train stations." She suddenly felt like she was babbling, and became embarassed. "Um...thanks for the offer." Rain looked past him, still not seeing Penelope. He couldn't be talking to her because he liked her--not a cool guy like him! **Guys like him don't like mousy girls like me.** Tio followed the direction of her eyes, noting that she wasn't locating her sister. "Ah. Trainstations are wonderful places." He turned his smile on "highbeam." "You can see the whole world if you sit and watch long enough." **He's still talking to me! Ooh look, a nosering! He's so neat!** Rain smiled at him, not being able to help it. "Yeah, people-watching is fun." **What cool hair!** He changed his stance, and lowered in voice, sounding serious. "If you'd like some help finding her...?" Fidgeting with his multiple earrings, Tio continued, "I mean... I don't wanna sound ....um..... well, you might not wanna wander around here alone, and if I noticed you--well, there's nasty boys out there not as nice..." The reality of the situation came back to her when he said that, and Rain realized she *was* talking to a stranger. But *he* couldn't be dangerous! He was so cute, not the type to hurt an innocent girl like her. She could be shy of him, but she refused to be afraid of him. "Oh...are things around here really that dangerous?" Tio looked over at her and smiled, thinking, **More than you'll ever know....** His expression was a bit sheepish. "I'll admit it... I'm a shameless flirt, and you're a pretty girl." Rain smiled and looked down, blushing. Tio's demeanor was completely serious as he said, "But... well, I'm harmless... maybe I could just walk around with you? I'm not much, but if it comes to it... the bad guys could just beat me up while you run away?" This touched her, the idea that he'd be willing to sacrifice his safety if hers was compromised. Her eyes softened up like a little puppy. "Ohhh that's sweet. But you don't have to do that. I think we'll be okay. Why don't we go get a snack in the coffee shop? You're being so sweet to me, and I do get lonely out here alone. My treat." He *should* have been happy she blushed so naturally, really he should... *shove* that feeling down into his gut again. **Stay there damn you, wimps die.. i'm not a wimp!** "Ah, I sure appreciate that, miss. And it does get rough around here sometimes, for ladies alone, ya know? But if ya have a map, I know the area... I might be able to help you locate your sister." Offering Rain his arm, Tio turned towards the coffee shop. "I don't usually like a fine lady like yourself to pay.. but I'm a bit strapped for cash at the moment. You buy the snacks, and I'll help you look for your sister, deal?" Rain cheerfully took his arm. "It's a deal! I don't know if a map would help...she could be anywhere. But I thought this was a good place to start. She's hiding out from some tough guys." She smiled, trying to make the situation seem light, because she didn't want to burden this boy with her problems. "I wish I could get her off the streets, but you're harder to trace on the streets, so... I just want to help her." "Well, aren't you lucky, if there's anyone around here who knows the street--and better yet, where to hide from the bad guys--it's good ol' Tio. I'm still alive aren't I?" Rain gazed at him with soft, concerned eyes. Did he live on the street? He looked down into her eyes and realized that she was *really* very pretty... the soft look there made him feel like that stupid bunny in the kids' movie whose back leg never stopped thumping. The way they looked at each other, it made heat well up in Rain's gut. She shyly looked away, then tried to change the subject. "I'm hungry! What do you think you'll have? I could go for a chocolate shake myself. We don't get chocolate back where I'm... uh, from." Suddenly shutting her mouth, she wondered if she said too much. Tio considered it, and as much as chocolate sounded like heaven, he'd not eaten in days... and wasn't certain when he'd get another chance at an "honest" meal. Practicallity won out. "Hm.. actually a cup of tea would be nice.. and I hear they have these funny rolls, they're called bagels? If that's not too much, of course..." Tea came, in Japanese style, by the pot... and bagels were large and filling. Rain opened her mouth to speak, then realized there were many people nearby, many strangers, so she moved in closer to him. "You can have anything you like," she whispered, her face close to his. "I have money. In fact, I think we should just go all out and get a nice meal. Whatcha say?" She stepped into the coffee shop and selected a table, sitting down. "Um... anything the lady likes." Tio pointed to a brightly lit glass case where there were all sorts of delectables. "It looks like they've got some pretty good things." He looked across at her, smiling. "After this, we'll go out looking for your sister, do you have a picture?" He stopped, chuckled low and smiled warmly at her. "And here I am... no manners. I'm Tio Saul... at your service..." Rain smiled when he told her his name. He had inadvertantly mentioned it earlier, but she liked a boy who was polite. "Sure, I have pictures. We can show them to others, right?" She shyly looked at the food in the glass case. "I like that name, Tio. My name's Rain Dophim." "Rain? Now that's a perfect name... it suits you." She blushed again. He was sweet. "Thank you. My parents loved Prince." Rain gestured to her mid-back length purple hair, which had a slight curl. "Purple Rain." Giggling, she remarked, "Your name is nice. Exotic. For this place, anyway." Tio chuckled. He looked at her hair and smiled; it was so cool, he wondered if she'd freak if he touched it. He was beginning to think she wasn't real. After examining the menu, Rain demonstrated just how big her appetite could be. She told the waitress, "Ummm... I'll have some... teriyaki chicken, and some egg rolls, and... fortune cookies... a piece of chocolate fudge cake and a chocolate shake. Oh and a pot of tea. What would you like Tio?" He blinked at the menu and his stomach growled and lurched. Tio actually felt light-headed. It had been a long time since he's had free reign with a menu. "Hot and sour soup, egg rolls, salt and pepper chicken, and tea as well?" He looked honestly embarassed and thrilled at the same time, as if he were asking her permission again, to okay his order before he decided on it. "That sounds great! Nice full stomachs for us tonight." Rain giggled, and looked at his face. He was just so fine! She liked watching him flip those long bangs off his face; it was a sexy habit. **Don't ever cut those, cutie.** Rain giggled again and felt heat creep into her face, so she began looking at the pictures on the menu. "Tio, do you live around here?" Full stomach? He wondered when the last time he'd had one of those... but tonight seemed to be when he'd get it again. **Remember to eat *slow*,** his mental reminder. Tio dipped his head and cocked it, flipping his hair from his face again. "I live all around... lots of places, actually." At first Rain had to stifle another giddy giggle from watching him flip his cool hair, but when he said he lived 'lots of places,' her eyes became concerned again. "Tio... do you live on the streets?" He blinked at her; there wasn't much way to dodge that question. Tio reached his hand nervously behind his head, looking sheepish. "Well, now.. that's not *exactly* it... but ... you could say that, if you wanted to." "Ohhhh..." She touched his hand. "That's sad. I've known a great deal of street people, through my sister... it's a hard life. I feel bad letting you go back out there, alone. You hang with me tonight, okay? That way neither of us have to be alone." Rain smiled sweetly. "Hey, Rain... it's just a temporary thing.. til next year when I can get my permit. I'd love to hang with you." **Tonight?** His heart raced, but he could see her eyes... she had no idea what she was saying... or inviting. "You're way too sweet to a street-rat like me." Realizing as he said it, he meant it. Rain smiled and touched his hand again. She just couldn't turn her back on him, not when he had been so kind to her! This time Tio gingerly took her hand in his, holding it with a nice pressure. **She feels so good.** Rain smiled shyly at him, not taking her hand away. It was so nice just to hold hands. So sweet, so gentle. Warm, excited feelings spread all through her. **Oh my gosh, does he *like* me too?** "Now," Tio began, covering quickly, "you got those pic's of your sister?" **Come back to reality Rain!** "Um, yeah." She dug a few pictures out of her purse. "Maybe you've seen her." The pictures were of a tall woman with a huge mound of red hair. "Wow, some hair she's got... she hides with all that?" Tio winked at her, grinning like a child. Rain giggled. "Yeah, you'd be amazed what she does with it. Big old fat braid, stuck down the back of her shirt. It's kind of amazing that hair hasn't sunk her already." "Hey... waitaminute now... I've seen this chick..." He looked over at Rain, his eyes narrowing. "But she doesn't look much like this anymore, got a piece of metal on half her face... and she's hidin' out from everyone, not just the badguys. I *think* I saw her curled up in a corner at the Metro Central station recently." "Really?! You have seen her!" Rain jumped up and hugged Tio tight and without embarassment, not even thinking twice about it. "You think she could still be there? Oh we should go there right after dinner!" He accepted the hug and hugged her back; it was really nice... a quick thought of **Might be nice to be a nice guy for a change** tumbled through his mind, but he quickly stuffed it away. "After dinner, definitely. I don't know if she's there or not? But it's a good place to start. I know all the places to hole up in the area...." He grinned broadly at her and winked. "Stick with Tio... he won't lead ya wrong.." "Well okay." As was her habit, especially tonight, Rain giggled. "Maybe we'll actually find her!" The food arrived then. "Oh goodie! I'm just starving, how 'bout you?" She practically dove into her chicken. Tio beamed and began to eat his food. He started with his soup and tea, slowly sipping each, *loving* the feeling it made on his insides. Then he got to his egg rolls and chicken, and before he knew it.... good intentions or not, every bit was gone. "Uh. ... I guess I was hungry..." Tio said, looking sheepish and embarrassed. Giggling, Rain pointed at her empty plate. "Yeah, me too! Mmmm, time for cake!" She flashed a bright happy smile and dug into her large slice of cake. "Mmmm! You wan a forfull?" she asked through a full mouth. "It's delishus." "Ah, sure.. why not?" he replied, grinning at her. She fed him a huge forkfull of cake, which barely fit in his mouth. This made her giggle loudly, the way Tio had to open his jaws wide to eat the cake. She covered her mouth, her eyes twinkling. He chewed and swallowed, chuckling when he was not going to choke. "Hey that's good!" "Isn't it though?" As Rain ate her cake, she opened one of her fortune cookies. "Hmm... you will make a trusted new friend. Hey!" She laughed and grabbed Tio's arm, shaking it playfully. "Yeah, that's me all right. Trusty Tio." But why suddenly everything he'd just eaten go sour? Rain noticed the change in his demeanor. "Tio? Something wrong?" "Um.. I might have eaten too much.. " He covered with a half smile. "You ready to get going?" "Sure!" Not wanting to waste any money, she chugged the last of her shake, then took loud deep breaths from just how much had been left. "Mmmm that's good." Rain paid the check, and came back, taking Tio's hand. "Now the next train headed for that station you mentioned..." looking at a schedule, "...leaves from here in five minutes. Hey, we'll just make it. Come on!" Rain dutifully walked to the train with him in tow. Tio had to chuckle as he followed right along after her. Once making the train, he found them some seats and sat down, enjoying the warm feeling he had that was creeping all over him. He grinned at the very pretty girl with him, looked around the place, making certain it was safe, then leaned back. "So? We're off then?" The train started to move. "Yeah! Weeeee!" she said, smiling at him brightly. They checked the station. Penelope was no where to be found. "Weeeell... that's that." Rain sighed. "There are too many stations to check! Nuts. Umm..." Unable to hold back a yawn, she remarked, "I'm really sleepy. I think I want to go back to my room now. You got a place to sleep tonight Tio? You want to stay with me?" Her voice was totally innocent, without a hint of sexual teasing. Tio nodded at her, his head beginning to feel heavy on his neck. "Sounds like a winner to me.... I'd love to. You just lead the way." He grinned at her and wrapped a friendly arm around her shoulders, as much to hold him up as to be "cuddling." Tinglies ran up and down Rain's spine. She felt that warm fuzzy feeling tickling her again. An old couple on the train looked at them warmly, smiling, as they made their way back to Tokyo. Rain couldn't help but grin to herself. **They think he's my boyfriend!** The youths rode the train back to Tokyo, and went to the hotel room Rain had been sharing with Penelope until she took off. There were two twin beds. One was unmade. "This one's mine." Rain put her purse on the unmade one. She almost started to take off her sweater, she was so comfortable, but then remembered there was a strange boy in the room. Too embarassed to wear her pajamas in front of him, Rain settled on taking off her shoes and socks and sitting on the bed. "My sister was staying here with me, but she took off. She won't be using that bed. Is it okay for you? The mattress sags in the middle a bit." Her tone was almost apologizing. Tio looked over at her as he made his way to the other bed and sat down. He tilted his head to one side and grinned up at her. "You're gonna sleep like that, are ya? Just because I'm here?" Shaking his head, he chuckled. "I'm a brat, but I'm not gonna hurt the guardian angel who's done so much for me... Tio will be very good, keep his peepers shut tight, and you can get into your comfy stuff. When you're all tucked in, I'll open 'em again, ne?" Such a deep, red blush crept into her face this time. She'd been caught. "Guardian angel... um, okay. I wish I had some jammies for you. Maybe something with feeties?" she giggled. Tio laughed, he just had to. "No way!" Still laughing, he continued, "Oh, angel... this is paradise." He beamed at her, then good as his word (for once?) he unlaced his boots, pulled them off, and then closed his eyes and turned away from her. "Go on now... I'll be asleep so fast you won't have time to think about it." As he spoke, Tio dipped his head and flipped the hair from his face, running a finger around his pierced ear, fidgeting with all the small studs. Rain glanced at him, making sure his eyes were really closed, and then went to get her nightgown. It wasn't surprising to her that she hadn't wanted to look away as Tio did the sexy hair flip thing again. A part of her didn't want to think that they were in a hotel room alone together, because the other part of her would have liked to kiss his ear after his fidgeting finger, and even a mousy girl like her knew where stuff like that lead! She undressed down to her panties, quickly, and slipped into the gown. Before she got into bed, Rain smoothed her purple -and-black-ringed furry tail down under the nightgown so it wouldn't stick out from under the sheet. Then she propped her head up on her hand and said, "Okay, you can look." Rain greeted him with a big smile. He turned and grinned back at her. Tio wasn't going to even *think* how much he'd wanted to peek; no healthy young man wouldn't have been tempted. "Ah! Beautiful! You feel better now?" "Yeah." Again, she yawned. "What a day..." Tio pulled down the covers of his own bed, yanked off his socks- -stuffing them in his boots--then smiled at her. "I'm going to get rid of the shirt, so I can rest.... I'm fine sleepin' in my jeans." Now why did he *warn* her before he took his shirt off; it's not like guys didn't do it all the time. He tossed his jacket down beside the bed, and pulled the black t-shirt off. Part of his mind was hoping that he didn't look too scrawny after his less than helpful year on the streets, and another part of his mind was wondering why he *cared* what she thought. Rain couldn't help but watch, desperately wanting to kiss him. Man he was cute! It would be so nice and easy to run her hands up and down his bare chest; they were alone here, after all. No older sister to overprotect her... Tio then swung his legs into the bed, and covered up, lying down, facing her, his head propped up as well. "So? It's lights out, hm?" "Oh, sure." Rain tentatively reached over and turned out the light. "Night Tio." The moonlight coming in the window shined off her eyes as she finally gave in to an impulse and leaned over to ruffle his hair before settling back into bed, giggling. Tio moved quietly, out from the bed to her side; he wasn't even certain why. "You need me to tuck you in, little angel?" He gently arranged the sheets around her on the outside, not making any "threatening" moves. He felt the occasional throb from his groin that said his libido found her as attractive as he did, but he didn't usually hop into the sack with a girl for the heck of it. Too many things can go wrong like that on the streets. Rain laid there, not moving, feeling warm tinglie waves washing over her. He was so sweet, so complimentary, so cute. She wanted to cuddle with him, just to fall asleep in someone's arms... it had been so long and so lonely. Maybe she'd even invite him to go... further. She couldn't help it. Rain leaned up and kissed Tio on the mouth, a gentle, innocent, but hungry kiss. To be continued.
