Disclaimer: I do not own Weiss Kreuz. I write this solely for therapeutic reasons. ~_^
Warnings: Minor angst, some subject matter.
Notes: It took two days for me to get this all worked out and written. It's more serous than my usual fics and alot of the questions asked are things I ask myself on a day to day basis except I'm not an assassin.
Why?

Why?
It's a simple word. One syllable, three letters.
Yet it's the hardest thing to answer. It calls for an explanation and most things are better left unexplained.
Why? It's a dangerous thing. The word calls for truth and the truth is truly a powerful weapon in the right hands. It can be twisted, and shaped into what ever the teller wishes, yet there will always be a grain of truth. This one word can ruin lives and shatter reputations. A simple question of "Why are your teeth crooked?" answered by "I suck my thumb.", could be heard by someone with malicious purposes in mind. Pretty soon an innocent answer will be twisted and passed around until the truth is no longer visible and the reason for the stae of that person's teeth has become something like, "They suck cock for a living." As soon as that's spread around, the victim's life and reputation is in the hands of society. They hardly ever make it out intact.
Even worse is when people question fate. "Why was he killed can result in even more deaths as things that shouldn't happen in legal society are uncovered. That raises even more questions. "Why was he buying and selling drugs?" or "Why was he gambling with his life?". Those questions are answerable only by the ones who can't or won't answer. That's where we step in. As assassins, we cut the loose threads, eliminating the fatal questions.
But that brings up my personal questions. Why do we live these lives, destroying those of the corrupt? Why did fate play such a trick on us?
Why was Omi kidnapped and why didn't his family pay the ransom?
Why did Takatori run over Aya, forcing Ran into this life to pay her medical bills?
Why did Kase betray Ken, ruining his chances at acheiving his dream?
Finally, why was my life destroyed and Asuka replaced bu Neu?
Too many questions, Yet more still come.
Why is Farfarello insane?
Why must we fight Schwarz?
Why do they have powers while we don't?
Why do they live the life os assassins?
Ah, now that's the big one. Why do they live this life? Maybe if we knew the answer, Weiss and Schwarz could get along. It would make all our lives a hell of a lot easier, wouldn't it? After all, they're human just like us.
But if we became friends then still had to fight, to kill each other, we'd most likely go insane. It would be torture, knowing that we'd have to kill someone who trusts us.
It's better this way.
But I'd still like to know what would have happened to us all if our lives had happened differently.
Why?
It's a simple word. One syllable, three letters.
And twice as deadly as any assassin.
