PROLOGUE
A Year Ago,
The church seemed different that night. The rain was pouring hard but it did not dither the man from his destination. The statues gave him cold glares. It was quiet. It was bleak. The man gave no sign of being affected. The church was giving off an aura to ward him off.
No…… Not yet…… he will not be swayed away from his purpose.
The look of desperation and determination was present in his eyes.
The silence was deafening to the ear.
Step by step, he moved towards the altar to where the tabernacle lay.

A wind came gushing forth to push him away.
A word escaped his lips
"Why?"
No one answered…
"Why did you take her away from me?"
" "
"WHY?!"
The silence only enraged the man… and the rain poured harder…

Two Years Ago...
"Near! Hurry up!" a beautiful girl w/ brunette hair and bright brown eyes shouted to the young male behind her.
It was their anniversary that day. It was the day that Near had professed his love for her. The very same day that she said Yes to him. On that very special day, they roamed the city together.
The young man who was supposed to behind her had already ran past her.
"SLOWPOKE!" he laughed. His eyes depicted the happiness that he had felt.
They laughed together.
Their relationship was odd at times. How could a seemingly cold and unfeeling male of his "kind" be paired up with such a beautiful and optimistic woman? I mean, the man could make Jack Frost melt in shame. The girl seemed to have completely penetrated through the thick layers of ice in his pumping organ called the heart. Hypothetically speaking, the heart is just a symbol because it is the brain that controls our actions and our feelings. But anyway, the point is, She made him feel. PERIOD
It never occurred to both of them that that would be the last time that they held one another in each other's arms.
On the next day, they went fishing and afterwards went to the market to buy some needed supplies.
"Come on Near! Hurry up! I'm gonna make my world famous Fish Fillet!"
"Try not to put so much poison in it. Ok?" he jested.
"Oh Shut Up Near!" she said as she hit him in the arm.
As they were walking, Saya noticed that a pregnant woman was about to be hit by a fast moving truck.
"LOOK OUT!" she shouted as she ran towards the woman.
Near got alarmed.
"SAYA!!!"
And at that very moment, Near's world was put to an end. His eyes watered as he looked at his beloved's sprawled body in the street. He quickly rushed to her side. and gently lifted her head to his lap. She whimpered and winced at the pain. Her life's blood was dripping from her body. Slowly, she opened her eyes to see Near for the last time.
"N….Near"
""
"N…Near.. I'm sorry" she said in a soft whisper.
"Don't be.. What you did was right."
Saya smiled at him. Studying his face and gently lifted her hand to his face which Near took in one of his own.
"Aishiteru…. Nate River….."
And then she closed her pretty eyes and went into eternal slumber as the hand that he held limped in his grasp.

I have decided to put it back again and edit some parts which I do not like. And in case you are wondering why Near is so off character, well, let's just say that i am just borrowing his character and tweaking it a bit. He may appear to lose his somewhat cynical, cold, "seed of chuckie" attitude but what the heck... Just read how i do it or don't read at all. And i seriously need a beta *sigh*
Thank you and good day
