OH MAI CRAP! We're at chapter 10!... Oh wait. That's not exactly something to jump for joy over or be ecstatic about. Ha-ha. I shut up now and give you story.

Zero: (Iris...That was the name of the girl in my dream... And the girl from my dream looks exactly like-) Whoa! * Matrix dodges the machete *

Iris: Shinu! * slashes at him again *

Zero:* dodges *( I know her from somewhere..Was it before I lost my memory?) * deactivates saber * Iris!

Iris: Oh, now you remember me? Haaaaaaa! * swings the machete at full force *

Zero:* dodges and grabs her wrists * My apologies...* knees her in the stomach *

Iris:* wind is knocked out of her and drops her machete*

Zero:* twirls her around and hits the back of her head *

Iris: Damn...you... * faints *

Zero:* holding her in his arms * You forced me to. * to Soldier 2 and Ciel * Guys! You're safe now!

Ciel:* dashes back * Thank heavens. You're not damaged, are you?

Zero: I will have to get some repairs to my back. I had some shrapnel embedded in my spinal column and I had bent it a little too far..and yeah.

Croire: Our darling stupid-head.

Zero:* glares and raises an eyebrow *

Croire: Well you shouldn't have flexed yourself that way if you knew you were damaged.

Zero: Who are you, my mother?

Croire: You need one.

Ciel: Back to more pressing matters, what are you going to do with her?

Zero:* lightly stroking Iris' hair * Take her back to camp and have Cerveau examine her so we can find out where she came from.

Ciel:* nods *

Soldier 2: She might kill us all when we aren't looking!

Zero: I'll take her weapons before she wakes. * carries Iris *

Soldier 2: I still believe it would be suicide, but your call.

Ragnarok-

Neige sat in the shade of the devastated space station. Hopefully, they found Zero. Most likely he'd be dead but at least they found him. She turned her head to the horizon where she spotted three figures.

Neige:* gets up and runs over to the three * Z-zero? Y-you survived?

Zero: You're surprised?

Neige: Well, yes... Who's the girl?

Zero: Iris.

Ciel: She and Zero fought and he knocked her out. We're taking her back to Area Zero to analyze her.

Neige: Oh... Say, weren't there four of you?

Soldier 2: The maverick killed them...

Neige: Then why the hell are you bringing her to Area Zero?

Soldier 2: It's Zero's idea. I think he finally snapped.
