"Okay then." He replied, a warm smile on his face.

Izak heard his thought and smiled at it. He turned to Amadeus and replied to the question. "I am strong enough." He ran his fingers through his hair, getting some of the knots out.

Not that Izak mind, but he knew that if they keep teasing Kazi like this, sooner or later that pot of boiling water will overflow. He turned to Amadeus. "I know he is right now locked away within my mind but he can still try to break out...if he does they is a slight possibility that he'll force himself out fully which then I'd have no control over..." He explained.

"Kazi is sort of hard to control at times." Izak laughed.

"Well alright Izak. But I will admit it was my fault for all this. If I didn't request to see him maybe this wouldn't have happened."

But even though Izak didn't want to hurt him, the demon is still his responsibility he assumed. If Kazi always acts like this then it would seriously hurt Izak's chances of returning to heaven and instead end up in the second hell with all the other traitorous angels. Wait a sec...

"Izak did you name the prince? I just realized that Kazi is Izak spelled backwards."

If he did then perhaps I won't have to worry. If this relationship continued perhaps Izak could end up being a good influence on the demon. Hopefully.

"Hey by the way Izak. Could you do me a favor?"

Izak gave a small chuckle. "No, he usually doesn't do that, seems like he only hates angels and demons." He said, playing with a strand of golden hair on his fingers.

"Yes, glad of you to notice." Izak commented. "I did name him. Kazi is indeed my name spelt backwards. Although it is strange because he only gives that name to people who he can trust..." The Angel muttered at the end, falling into deep thought.

He was surprised by the sudden question but he didn't refuse. "Yes? What would that favour be?"

Amadeus fashioned a small grin. Ever since his adventure with Cressida he discovered that his violin had another unique trait that even he was unaware of. Not something he has completely mastered yet. However this would prove to be very useful in the future.

But he had too consider everything first. Would the demon immediately want to take control the first chance he get in order to destroy his violin? Perhaps, but he would take that chance. Besides he was confident in Izak's abilities.

"Could you play my violin for me? I want to hear what kind of sound you produce. Oh and don't worry if you dont know how to play. You will know how to play this instrument."

Izak was a bit surprised by the request. He had never ever touched an instrument let alone play one and Amadeus is saying that he could. "But how can I know if I never touched a violin before?"

The Angel eyed the instrument and sighed. "I can try, but I'm not so sure if the music will come out nicely." He added, smiling sheepishly.

He could tell that Amadeus woundered whether or not Kazi would take over. But Izak knew he wouldn't...he can't. With his eye covered up like that, the best he can do is talk. "So, where's this violin of yours?"

Amadeus fashioned a small grin when Izak agreed to his request.

"Excellent"

He retrieved his instrument and handed it over to Izak. Before Amadeus protected it like if it were a child. His spirit was incased within the violin, so if it were to break it wouldn't be able to sustain its presence here in the material world. Amadeus would vanish and never be able to return. However circumstances changed, the instrument seemed to be fusing with his sprit and power. Amadeus didn't know what to make of it yet, but events at the lake had urged him to experiment. Cressida might of also had something to do with it he thought.

"All you have to do is pour your emotions into the instrument. It will move your hands for you so to speak. But please dont put any negative feelings in your playing. Something bad might happen."

Now he would see whether the violin would do the same thing as it did at the lake.

[hr]

That being said Izak, you will have the violin in your hands and thus his power. So if you feel like doing something else with the instrument like Cressida did in 'Serenade under the moon' you are more than welcome too. Its always exciting to do someting different.

Izak took the violin into his hands, it felt so delicate that a single push could break its fragile shape. He had to be very careful, it wasn't his possesion, what if he were to break it by chance? Drop it or something? It's better not to think about these sorts of things and just play it.

Slowly he bought the violin to his shoulder, resting gently upon it. Then he gently touched the violing string with the bow. He finally played his first note followed by the second and the third. The tune wasn't sad but it wasn't fully happy either. It was a calm and gentle tune. 'Huh...since when did violin playing get so easy?' He thought before focusing back onto playing.

It was like the violin was played by two people. Like someone was guiding his hands, was that the violin? It was only then did he see something fall right in front of his eyes. A small white dot fell gently to the ground.

It was snowing.

As he continued to play, more snow fell gently from the sky to the ground. He looked at the violin, amazed by its power.

His spirit within the violin always expressed the feelings that Amadeus poured into it. But when someone else played on it the opposite happens. He feels whatever emotion the person is expressing into his or her playing. He had to admit this was a wonderful feeling. The snow only made it better.

"So this is what your sound is Izak. Its much more pure than what I imagined."

The snow continued to fall and memories of winter nights flooded Amadeus. Music has the power to bring back memories long forgotten even in deepest part of our hearts. Amadeus recalled many cold nights shared with his friend Vincent back in his home town. Memories of things he can no longer cherish or experience. Vincent died of old age many decades ago and all Amadeus could do was take his name and bury him. That was the only time Amadeus wished he were still damned. Having human emotions was to much of a burden for him.

"You may return it to me when you're done Izak. I love this sound. So if you don't mind I would like it if you continued playing."

A tear ran down his cheek.

Let me enjoy this moment just a little longer.

Izak's eyes travelled from the violin to Amadeus, his hand didn't stop playing though, moving on its own. Amadeus seemed to be sad, perhaps caught in the moment or remebering a past memory.

He continued to play, the gentle melody humming from the violin strings. If Amadeus wanted to enjoy the moment, then he shall. The snow twirled around like a dancer on ice, it seemed to fuse with the music, travelling where the sound travelled.

Soon, his hand began to slow down. The piece was coming to an end. The music slowed, slowed and finally stopped. Izak dropped his arms, of course still holding the violin, watching Amadeus. The snow seemed to cease as well, the dancer stopped. "Amadeus..." He started, handing back the violin.

"Did you lose someone dear to you?"

Amadeus looked up realizing the music had stopped. He felt the presence of the violin slowly changing. This time he would be ready for the transformation. He wiped his face.

"An old friend and one I will never forget. But now onto current matters if you dont mind."

Amadeus retrieved his instrument and watched as the familiar glow began to surround the instrument till it was nothing but a ball of light growing brighter and larger. It floated into midair and began to pulse with power pushing the snow off the ground.

"We will now see the fruits of your labor Izak. Brace yourself."

Amadeus stretched out his right hand and aimed it at the glowing orb. He gathered power to his hand and searched for his spirit withing the violin. The waves of power grew more intense and whirlinds began to surround all of them.

Almost there...

Amadeus now channeled the energy around the instrument and the glow dimmed till it was but a small ball of light same size as the violin. Amadeus pulled the little glowing ball closer to him till it landed in his hands. Then in one final flash of light, the violin revealed its new form.

"A flute! Very lovely Izak thank you for this wonderful gift."

Well it was a flute sort of. From appearance anyones first guest would of been a spear, a very elegant one at that. It featured a long azure pole with calligraphic and diamond like decorations. The mouth piece was found in the lower half of the pole with the finger holes right before it in the mid-section. The spear head was cross shaped and featured three blades facing in different directions.

Amadeus took this oppurtunity to play a small melody on the new instrument. He held the spear as you would a normal flute, though he had to admit it must look of looked strange. A little waltz sang from the instrument and produced ice crystals to dance around everyone.

Very nice indeed. It would seem that this one is affiliated to ice magic.

Amadeus stopped playing and in another flash of light the spear transformed back to the violin. He sat down at the base of a nearby tree exhausted by the ordeal.

"A powerful weapon and probably not one I would use very often. Perhaps I will use it when your other half decides to annoy me again."
