DC: Don't own skullgirls AN: Just to let you know the fanfic will be shown mostly from my OC's POV. Unless shown otherwise.
Oh and I'll try not to make him too powerful. Now enjoy.

By the time we stopped running it was raining and night had fallen. It made me remember that night.
When I was saved by my Sensei from death. Walking slowly up the mountain steps, bleeding from the right part of my chest. The hail pouring on the top of my head like bullets. Feeling a warm copper liqud pouring from my mouth. Finally I gave up and fall to the ground. My gaze turned to the sky as if I were looking up to the stars above. Finally my wounds were too severe. I blacked out for what I thought was going to be forever. My last line was 'So this is what dying's like...'

A tap on my left arm brought me back to the present. I lifted my head up and saw the girl from before looking at me. 'Are you okay?' she asked me.

I nodded and said 'We should find somewhere to stay. Then we can talk.'
She gave me return nod and pointed to a small hostel a stone throw away from where we where.
With her still holding my hand we entered the shabby place.

'Looks cheap.' I quietly told my new companion as we got into the hostel.

I did the talking. We paid for our room and got into it with no problem.
There was a bed, a window and a table with a chair. There was no bathroom.
That was down the hallway. She sat down on the bed which creaked loudly and I put my wet leather coat on the table. I took the seat and turned it to face her. We were quiet for a few seconds before I said 'I'll start. My name is James.'

She was silent before she said 'Filia.'

Being nice as always I smiled and said 'Cute name.' I figured I should add in a little joke to loosen us up.

Filia smiled at this. After that I asked her in a calm, concerned tone 'So what's your story?'

She bit her lip and cried out 'I don't know! Up until the last few days I don't remember anything.'

My eyes widen at this. 'Does that have to do with that thing on your head?' I asked to her.

Filia nodded and pointed to her hat. 'When I woke up it was on my head. It called itself Samson.'

I could only open my mouth in shock. 'Can it hear us right now?'

After I said that Filia closed her eyes. As if she was senseing it hearing.
'I don't think so. I think it's asleep right now.'

Letting out a sigh of relief I asked her to give me her hand.
She let me hold it, it felt soft and slik-like.
'I know how hard it is. Having a lack of memories. I'll help you. I promise you.'

A blush filled her cheeks before she nodded and thanked me with a quick peck on the cheek.
I reacted in surprize and held a hand to my face. I then regained my composeure.
That was my first kiss as far as I know but I did not want to show it.
'Better get some sleep. Talk more in the morning eh?' I said to her as I took the inside of my coat and used it as a pillow on the table. I went right to sleep knowing somehow Filia would do the same.

In Filia's mind as she layed in bed:

Samson's voice entered her mind as it always did when she slept.
'C'mon let me beat him up.' he hissed with malice.

Filia shook her head. 'No! he's a good person! He's trying to help me!' she said.

Samson gave a small laugh at this 'Good enough to get a kiss from you?'

The high schooler's brow lowered and she said 'I...It was to say thank you. Just that!'

The parasite just said in response 'Liar' as it exited her mind.

Her eyes opened in shock. The thing she saw was James sleeping on his coat.
'He looks so peaceful. As if the world does not effect him.' she mused inwardly.
For a long time she looked at him. His messy dark blonde covered one of his blind eyes.
She wondered if he was looking at her right now. But she put it aside and went back to sleep.

Back to James POV:

When I left my sleep the sun was up. I felt it on my face.
I got out of my chair and began my usual 20 morning pushups. As I finished Filia was up and looking at me. 'Early morning work out.' I told her while feeling rather awkward.

'Good morning.' she told me in a kind tone with a smile.
The bed covers showed her plump figure, I adverted my gaze, if she saw me leering I'd start a war I won't win. Then I checked my bag.

'Filia let me ask you something? Do you know a woman called Parasoul?' I asked her as I saw the large package in my bag.

She nodded and said 'Not on a personal level. But everyone knows where she and her troops live.'

'Troops?' I asked her with a rasied eyebrow.

She repiled with 'The black egrets. They're sort of like the police here.'

I nodded and asked her to step outside so I could change my top.
She agreed and I kept my blue jeans with my good old kung-fu shoes.
My shirt was changed from a plain white t-shirt into a black one with a blue dragon pattern on it.

I stepped out the room to let her change but she said she was okay.
I was confused at this. But I made no attempt to stop her.
It's not in me to do so.
'So why do you need to find Parasoul anyway?' she asked me as we walked down the decrept hallway.

'My master needs me to give her a parcel. He told me not to look in it.' I told her with my eyes motioning towards my bag.

As we got out the hotel Filia grabbed my right arm. I turned to face her and she breathed into my ear 'Do you think she can help us? Help me get my memories back?'

I smiled and said 'Filia can I have your hand again?'

She blushed and said 'Sure.'

I took her left hand and held it lightly.
'If my Sensei trust this lady then she must be a good person.'

She opened her mouth to speak but I cut it off with 'And if she can't help. Then I'll stick by you until your memories come back.'

Her mouth opened wide, the face she had was a mix of shock and happiness.
'Why?' was all she said.

Being the secret ladies man that I am. I gazed deep into her eyes with my blind ones. 'It's the kinda guy that I am. Now come on we gotta move.'
I said with a grin.

With that we moved ever closer to our fate together.
At that point I still knew nothing about the skull heart.
I wonder what would have happened if I never met Filia.
But I would not wish for that, never, ever.
