[The City is full of dreams today and as it turns out, even the devil's lost soul has dreams. Nightmares, to be precise.

Standing in the middle of a road close to the fountain, Kira is looking unlike himself today, though some might say that it's much more like his true self. With four magnificent black wings sprouting from between his shoulders and a wicked smile on his face, he seems confident in his ability to brave this nightmare.

What he's fighting does - as so often in dreams - not seem to make much sense. Wires, but moving, bloody, deadly. They've already hurt him, but the wounds have healed, just the traces of his own blood still clings to his skin. So far, he's not received lasting damage, but the wires aren't stopping. And - again, as often seems to be the case in dreams - somehow it's just known that these wires want to kill.

There is something to note to those who know Kira better than most: Despite the wings, he still has the bloodmark on his chest, he still fights with Shiranui, the holy sword. He still has a human body. Dreams don't always make sense, after all.]

I'm not dying yet.

[Such confidence, despite the wires just regrowing whenever he manages to land a hit, despite being out of breath already.]

[He looks over at his brother and for a moment can't believe he's trusting him.

No. He doesn't have time to question it. Instead, he looks back at the wires and puts on a terrifying smile.]

Alright. Time for you fuckers to burn.

[Planting his sword in the ground, he dives between the wires and his brother and spreads his arms out. This way they have to go through him to get to his brother and he can take them out. Alright...come on...get closer...closer...]

FLY! [And he only gives him a second to soar before he's exploding with a giant ball of extreme heat and fire.]

[That was more like it. Kira had no doubt that he'd be able to convince Michael, still have that much of his trust, when only he asks for it. He waits for the command, then flies up, all four wings carrying him high up in no time. He looks down at the explosion, smiling at it. What a way to turn a nightmare around.]

[The fire starts to die down and Michael is standing there with his sword slung over his shoulder. The flames still lick at his body but he's not paying attention to that since they can't hurt him.]

[As the fire dies down, Kira lands behind Michael again. He watches the flames with a raised eyebrow and finally reaches out to light a cigarette on them.

Be decent, huh?]

...not bad.

[He looks over his shoulders with a frown then points the sword right at Lucifer's face.]

Shut up. I don't wanna hear it unless you're not gonna be an asshole later. [Sticking his nose in the air, he made it seem like he was looking down on him. He was not going to lose to him anymore. He didn't even care that he was shorter.]

I was amazing and you needed me.

I'm not about to change.

[Make of that what you will. Kira has an eyebrow arched as he watches Michael. Good. He likes that look on him. Strong.]

You helped out and it wasn't unwarranted.

If it wasn't unwarranted than you wouldn't have used me. Don't you go lying.

[He narrows his eyes. This isn't easy and yet...it feels kind of good.]

I'm not stupid.

I'm not lying. It was warranted.

[He is watching Michael with a hint of amusement that might be pride and both of it might be a lie.]

No, you're not. A bit slow at times. Sometimes you just fear to think too much. But you're not stupid.

[He glares at him then snorts and turns his back on his brother.]

I don't fear thinking. It just gets in the way of what's important.

However you want to view it.

[Kira just shrugs and looks at what's left of the wires. That part of the dream is over, but he still has the wings.]

Keep your focus up.

[With that, he flies up above the City. Michael could follow, but for once he doubts he will.]

You first!

[Of course he's not going to follow. He has better things to do.]
