He smiled. At least he would die an honorable death. Pai knew that even if Deep Blue was dead, he had brought Pai down with him. He was in too much agony. The blood he was losing pooled around him. Pai was slowly going numb. Yes, he was going to die. But, he was happy about it.


Retasu was walking home from the Café. She was enjoying the crisp autumn air. The leaves were beautiful shades of gold and red. Then she stepped in something. It was warm and red… Blood. Retasu got worried. She followed the trail of blood to a beautiful meadow with any kind of wild flower imaginable. In the middle was a bloodied figure with big ears. His chest was bloodied. His shirt was ripped and his hair was free of its bind, making him look like an ancient warrior. A dying warrior.

"No! Pai, don't leave yet!" Retasu yelled. Pai snapped to reality.

"Damn. Didn't want you to see me like this." Pai said. He was about to close his eyes.

"Don't go! Stay with me! Um…What's your favorite book?" Retasu asked. She slung his arm over her shoulder.

"Let me go, Retasu!" Pai demanded. "Let me die." Retasu was tempted, so tempted. She didn't let go. Pai was about to close his eyes.

"No!" Retasu screamed. Retasu kissed him hard. Pai was too dazed to do anything but stare ahead. At Retasu's house he was laid down. "Um umm… Water!" Retasu ran off.

"… What just happened?" Pai asked the air. Retasu came in with a bowl of water and a rag. She started to wipe off the blood. Pai's breathing became stronger.

"Phew. You can sleep now." Retasu said. Pai just closed his eyes and fell asleep. While he was sleeping, Pai stitched his wounds. Pai woke up afterwards, but pretended to be asleep. "I wonder what you dream about."

Ring ring! Ring ring!

"I'll be right back." Retasu said and kissed Pai's forehead quickly.


"Hi!" Retasu said.

"Yes there's an alien here."

"Pai."

"You want me to what? That's insane!"

"Turn in my pendant? Why?"

"I don't care if I'm off the Mew team! I don't need it anyway!"

"I don't care if I'm your girlfriend! Pai almost died!"

"Give one reason I should do it!"

"No! That's not true! We're over! Go find some other girl to boss around! You fucking asshole! I wish you would die in a hole and rot in hell!" Retasu hung up the phone. Pai went back to sleep and pretended he didn't hear that.

Like it? I liked it!
