A/N: Firstly, Thankyou so much for the lovely reviews. Keep em coming :D. Sorry it took so long, had been busy. Which is why you'll get 2 chapters today. A little bad news This one is a short one.

Disclaimer: These Characters do not belong to me. they're Namco owned.

They took the car to the mysterious forest in the north. It was about a 45 minute drive from the diner. They stopped at where the road had ended into the wilderness. They got out and Jun led the way. While they were walking Kazuya became impatient and started to unbutton his shirt.

"What do think you're doing?!" Jun asked with her hands on her hips.

"This is taking too long" he said & transforms.

"You're, a little different than I remember."

"Oh, so you do remember?" grinning, he makes his hand behind her back and pulls her against him as they flew off. The flu about for 2 minutes given his speed.

"You should land here" Jun pointed towards the green field of trees.

"Why? I don't see a spring there." Kazuya replied.

"There's a reason for that." Jun warned.

As they land she tells him to keep his devil form, she holds onto his shirt as they walk a little longer. "You're wasting your time, this is stupid. You'll see." he continues to brag. "The devil Gene is too strong to be... stopped -" he looked at his purple scaly arm, with amazement as the scales begin to get lighter and lighter from their original colour. "What is... this?" he asked.

"The stupid spring" she smiles.

He could hear the sound of water running. After a few more steps he could see a lake through the trees. Upon reaching the banks he could see it clearly, a small waterfall at one end of the lake, with a large rock slightly above the water level towards the other end. He looks over to Jun & jokes "this isn't going to corrupt or kill me right?"

"Corrupt you any further than what you are now?" she jokes along. "It's perfectly safe. You'll feel better, at peace. See for yourself."

He hesitantly steps in the water & keeps walking till he is at least knee deep. He notices that his devil gene fades away into dust. As he takes a deep breath to relax his mind, he begins to feel lighter; as if his lungs had become clear from congestion. He's mine freed from corrupted thoughts. All visions of power & vengeance only held no purpose. A genuine smile began to appear on his face and he heard Jun say "that's how I felt."

He turned around and saw her standing a little further away now, under a tree. He became curious so he asked "why are you..."

"Standing so far away?" she completed.

He started to walk out of the lake and towards her "how bad does that thing have a hold over you?"

"Well, not bad, meaning: bad enough to appear but not bad enough to control."

Kazuya had reached a foot from her "wondrous isn't it? To have all that power?" he grinned.

She hands in his shirt and leans back on the bark of the tree "well I can heal... a lot faster than usual."

After he finished wearing his shirt he asks "and?"

She opened her mouth to continue but his phone gave a beep. Saved by the Bell she thought. He raised his eyebrows and gave a smirk while looking at the message. "Found your son, 9 p.m., Hell's Gate."

They started to walk in a certain direction seemed as if it was going deeper into the woods. "Hell's Gate? What is that?" she asked while leading him.

You really don't want to know he thought. So before answering he taught of changing the topic instantly "I'm not sure myself."

She led him to an old, small, shabby, creepy looking cabin. Made of dark worn out of wood with a broken front door & an unstable roof. He stood in front of that piece of rubble and blurted "who lives in this dump?!"

"I do; it's not much but at least I could-" she is stopped as he places his hand on her shoulder.

"Jun; let me help you." the increased level of concern in his tone.

"You already are" She faces him.

"You know very well what I mean" he refuses to believe the image she portraits.

"Times have changed." Still trying to be strong.

"But I haven't."

"Have you not?" she says softly with a questioning look.

After staying silent for more than a montage, she agreed to come with him, just this once. He arrived back at headquarters with Jun & ordered lunch to be delivered to his room. As he was discussing the plan with her, someone made a surprise visit "There you are, I thought I heard you come in." Anna stepped inside, swaying her hips while approaching him.

Kazuya look at her and furrowed his eyebrows "I'm busy Anna. Leave!"

"Really love?" she asked with her hands on her hips, continued to be amused.

He looked at the space where Jun sat and found it empty. He rubbed his temples "I... want to be alone, at the moment." he started to stutter.

She pointed at the extra plate of food and asked "expecting someone?"

"yes- I was expecting... her." he trails off. "Make sure she comes straight to my room when she arrives."

Shoulders drop in disappointment & she made a pout. The second she closed the door, Kazuya found Jun sitting next to him again. "How'd you -?"

"Oh yes, I can teleport too." she picks up her fork to take a bite out of her meal.
