Chapter 2

When Teito awoke the next morning he was at first very confused as to where he was, and then all the memories of what had happened below the church came flooding back into his mind. He tried very hard to resist the urge cry but alas the tears streamed down his face despite his best efforts. The feeling of sorrow and guilt were unbearable for him. He knew that Mikage's death was his fault, if he had never become friends with Mikage,he would still be alive.

This thought made him realize that he was also putting the innocent people at this church in terrible danger, he knew that Ayanami would stop at nothing to get a hold of him. Teito would not be able to handle anyone else dying for or because of him.

It was then that Teito decided how he would atone for his sin and make sure that no-one else was hurt because of his useless existence.

Not long after that Teito sank back into a restless sleep, with his dreams being plagued by the images of people he both knew and did not know dying in pools of blood around him.
