A/N: Light: Sorry for skipping a day in updating. Mom took the mouse and hid it.
Dark: But then we hid the mouse last night so that she couldn't get it! MWAHAHAH!
Light: -_-*Anyway…here's some trivia we forgot to put in the last chapter: "Ransu" means "spear" in Japanese and her last name, Yana, is when I switched around the word "naya." "Naya" means "barn" in Japanese; "barn"is a reference to Maka's last name: Albarn. Miles'—
Dark: My turn! Miles' eye color is orange which is next to red in the color spectrum. Soul's is red so…red goes to orange and green goes to blue. Also, Ransu's hair is brown and in a ponytail while Maka's is ash blonde and in pigtails
Both: Standard disclaimer applies.
Soul and Maka stuffed Miles out the window and exited the motel at dawn.
"Did you crazy kids have fun?" asked the clerk. Maka blushed.
"For that…" said Soul, "you're not getting a tip, or, for that matter, any payment at all."
The clerk paled.

Maka walked around her school even though it was Saturday. Soul was at home with Miles.
"MAKA!"
Maka turned around to see her father running towards her at full speed.
"Maka…chop!" Maka yelled. Spirit collapsed onto the hard ground with a block shaped impression in the middle of his head.
"Maka! Your papa loves you!" Spirit exclaimed. Maka rolled her eyes. But then…she got an idea.
"Ne, Papa…?
"What is it, Maka?" Spirit asked, suddenly jumping up.
"Can you…do me a favor…?"
"Maka…OF COURSE!" Spirit attempted to tackle his daughter in a bear hug.
"Tell me about Miles Green and Ransu Yana."
"Maka…Fine…I remember them from another class. Miles Green was a weapon, and Ransu Yana was his meister. They lived together and they always argued, but their wavelengths matched beyond average. Soon they became a couple and were about to start a family. But while Miles was away, they were robbed and Ransu and their unborn child were killed. It's sad, really. They couldn't fight by themselves; they were just so dependent on each other. I didn't know them very well though. Why do you ask, Maka?"
"No reason…Bye, Papa!"
XxX
Maka went back to her house where Soul and Miles were. "Hey, Maka…" Soul said.
"Hi, Soul," she replied.
"What's up?"
"Nothing…I just talked to my dad, and he told me a little about Miles and Ransu."
"Yeah? So what'd he say?"
"Nothing we didn't already know."
"Mm. Shoganai…" (It can't be helped.)
"Yeah."
"What's wrong?" asked Soul.
"Nothing; I'm fine, Soul."
Miles looked up towards the clouds. The sky was pleasantly blue and the clouds shrouded the sunlight so that brilliant rays shone through.
"Ne, Maka, Soul…" he said. The two teens looked at him. "I miss Ransu. I think she misses me too."
"Miles?" asked Maka.
"Sayonara, Maka, Soul. You reminded me of Ransu and myself…so…don't be blind to your emotions. We thought we had all the time in the world to finish our plans. Don't put it off forever."
Then he stepped through the window. He smiled for the first time since he'd become a Kishin egg. It was as though the sun's rays were returning his humanity. He looked into the sky as his being dispersed. He could almost see Ransu in heaven, waiting for him with a bundle in her arms and a bright smile splashed across her face.
XxX
It had been three days since Miles had "left." Don't be blind to your emotions. We thought we had all the time in the world to finish our plans. Don't put it off forever. That's what he said. Soul pondered over these words as he looked at his meister.
"Ne, Maka," he said.
"Nani?" responded Maka.
"Wanna get a bite to eat after class?"
Maka buried her face in her textbook in an attempt to hide the blush on her cheek. She gulped and swallowed any doubts about her weapon and friend.
"Sure, Soul," she said happily.
"It's a date!"
A/N: Light: We rushed the ending a bit.
Dark: It's fine; I want to write a Sword Art Online fic already!
Light: We'll start tomorrow.
Dark: Or maybe Inuyasha or FMAB…No! SAO first!
Light: Hai. Hai.
Both: Yonde kurete arigato! R&R
