[His voice almost sounded a little off, but Ali didn't really think anything of it. He was in his other form, that happened sometimes. She was also too upset to even be that scared of it right now.]

Thanks.

[His voice is off; Warren's teetering a delicate line right now, and his emotions are taking over his control. He will not hurt her when his heart tells him that she is one of the strong and that she will survive this obstacle. The others are a different story. They should fear retribution.]

Don't thank me.

[Okay, she's starting to get a little freaked out. Is she flying with Warren, or is she with Death?]

...Sure, okay.

[He looks down at her, white eyes skimming the top of her head. He places his hand there, gently smoothing down her hair. His speed is still accelerating and he will protect her body even from the harm of the elements. His mission right now is to protect her, and will do only that.]

Tell me if I hurt you.

[This is a little unsettling, but she forces those feelings away. Best not to set him off more. Why is he---crap.]

I'm fine.

If I go too fast it can hurt. I don't want to cause you pain.

[He lowers his altitude to make breathing easier, but still accelerating, as said. They've reached the half way point, gliding over Illinois. He wouldn't be able to do this in his normal form, as Worthington was much weaker, and it was likely he would be exhausted once changed back. For now though, he is still comfortable and able to move]

[She's scared, really, really scared. She doesn't know what to expect from him when he's like this, and especially when he's talking like that. She is unsure if she can trust him.]

I didn't know you could go this fast.

[If she talks to him maybe he'll stop---speaking like that.]

I can go faster if I push myself. Do you want me to? I can get us there.

You don't have to fear me.

This is fine, really.

[Crap, he knows she's scared. Crap, crap, crap. What's he going to do?!]

The Archangels are fighters, but they're also guardians first and foremost. I swear to you, you don't have to be afraid.

[He holds her head closer to his chest to shield her; there is no way the force isn't straining her. He will not do what the other despicables have done; she has proved her strength to him time and time again, even holding strong when he could not.]

I promised you. I intend to keep it.

O-okay.

[It is something of a strain, yes, but she's more focused on the person who's holding her. Despite anything he says, she is scared of him like this.]

[He nods, spreading out his additional two wings to aide his body as he began burning more energy. They were only one state out now, and he could see the mountains easily with his vision. Again he begins to lower his altitude, flying straight toward the fog surrounding the plains of rock. The sun is nearly set, and he is satisfied with his timing. She will be safe.]

Almost there.

Good--I'm glad.

[He sounds a little better now, but she's still scared. Alison hates being scared of him because she really doesn't want to be.]

[He swoops down through the peaks and toward the small rows of houses spread amongst them. It takes him several more minutes to find his own, but he does, and lands smoothly on the large wrap around, wooden porch. He sets on her feet and lets her go carefully, giving her space to walk away from him.]

Are you lightheaded?

[Alison steps away from him, shaking before she just lets herself drop down. She pushes her hands through her hair and nods as she just sits.]

Yes.

It will only last a couple of seconds. Do you want a drink?

[He doesn't move closer to her, just crouches and stares at her.]

[She looks up and only nods again.]

[He gets back up to his feet and enters the house, going straight to the kitchen for water. It's dark inside, and he doesn't bother with the lights. Water is the importance, and he finds her a bottle. He steps outside again a few seconds later and holds it out to her.]

[She takes it from him and drinks. Now that he's not holding her anymore, she's not so scared. Still, though, she's uneasy. It's hard not to be.]

That's a little better..

[He notices her ease up a bit; her body language is not as defensive]

Do you want to go inside and sit down?

Okay.

[She stands, grabbing her bag in one hand and keeping her bottle in the other. She heads inside, using her powers to light the place up a little as she finds a place to sit down.]

[He lets her sit, and stands by the door. He looks to be in a small bit of pain, and winces a little as the colour drains from his face. He's forcing himself to shapeshift, and the exhaustion just grows as he returns to normal.]

Do you...want blankets?

I'm okay.

[She just draws her knees to her chest and stares forward.]

[He watches her, pushing himself away from the door and walking gingerly toward the couches. He drops down to the one across from her, folding his arm over his face. He's tired]

I'm sorry.

[Her eyes flicker towards him, and she's happy that he's normal again.]

I'm fine.
