I offer him my support, my reinsurance, my abilities, and my love. But now it's come to this, we don't talk, we don't look at one another, if it wasn't for our same jobs, we wouldn't even be in the same room ever. Does he hate me now? No, I don't think so. He's just lost, confused, and upset, in one month; he must make a huge decision, to kill the traitor.

But…I can't help but to think of that one question that stands out above all else in my mind? Why is he pushing me away? It shouldn't be too hard to kill her, he loves me, and I love him. So why is he pushing me away from him, distancing us? Maybe, it's because he doesn't really love me at all…No, that can't be it; he gave me his word, and this pendant as proof.

Miyu was just sitting on her bed in the new room she was staying in, thinking to herself, everything has changed. She was twirling around her pendant in her paws, no longer wrapped around her neck, like how she use to have it.

If he had true feelings for me, and me only, he wouldn't be pushing me away, he would be embracing me. That must be it, he still love Krystal, and now must decide who he wants to be with. But, is that really a choice? Krystal has been branded a traitor, they would never allow Fox to be with her, it will never happen. In one month, she will either die by Fox's paws, or face the judgment of the council, but traitors aren't welcome among them, and prices are high. Even to death for their crimes.

I may think this is all my fault, it probably is. But I will not just stand aside and let Fox throw me away, like some tissue after you've blown you're nose into it.

Miyu's head was starting to ache from her thoughts; she laid down on her bed frame, and took in deep breaths from her nose.

I have to calm down, those thoughts, couldn't possibly become reality. Their was no way that Fox would choose Krystal, over me, would their be? After everything she's done to him? But come, to think of it, what has she done that made her crime so high? To be branded as a traitor to the system. But there is the rumors she's planning something big, something that could very well overwhelm us and destroy us all…No, we will be victorious that day. I know it.

Miyu got off of her bed, and decided to take a walk through the park to calm her nerves. She walked out the door, and immediately heard the fighting between Fox and Fay, something that has already happened a million times sense Fox's decision for him and Miyu to stay friends. This fight was getting pretty fierce.

"I don't what's so hard about all of this, you know what you have to do, you can't choose Krystal over Miyu! She's been branded as a traitor. Corneria will never allow it!" Fay was screaming at Fox, he was being so selfish she thought, why couldn't he just get over the fact that this is what life is all about. Decisions and sacrifices you don't want to make.

"I know where this is going, and I know what I have to do! But I have to do it this way, I can't even think straight now."

"Why are you being so selfish? Pushing Miyu away from yourself won't help you, how does it help any of us!?"

"I am not being selfish, I'm being real. You wouldn't know Fay, when was the last time you had to fight someone you cared for?" Fay just gave him a glare, he was right their. No one could have gone through what Fox is going through now.

"Never, but that doesn't excuse you're actions."

"My actions? Like what?"

"Miyu loves you, but you turn her away, reject her. If you don't quit this soon, she could end up leaving you for someone else." Fox sat down, he wasn't so happy with that thought, and held his head down.

"Wake up! You're not being real; you're being stubborn if anything!" Fox was done, he just got up and walked away from Fay, he ran into Miyu down the hall, neither talking to one another, and looking opposite ways, just as usual. Miyu ran quickly out the door, Fay tried to speak with her, but didn't even get the chance. It was windy that day, the winds blowing fast and strong, Miyu had to shield her eyes from the irritation. After a moment, she adjusted to it.

This is hard, hard for any of us, for me. But mainly for Fox. All I can wonder now, is does Krystal feel the same way about him? Maybe she's to blinded by rage and vengeance to even see that he loves her, how absurd. This time apart can't possibly destroy our relation ship could it? After everything we've been through, everything we've done, everything we've…said.

Miyu could feel tears forming in her eyes; she increased her pace, practically an all out sprint. She had to get away from it all. She kept that way for nearly half an hour now, and ended up in a grassy field in the park, completely warn out. She looked up to the cloudy sky; it was dark and gray, depressing. It fitted her mood quite well she thought.

Me and Fox are meant to be together, I'm sure of it. Or, are we? Krystal and Fox are both foxes, and I'm a lynx. But like Falco said it himself, our gene structures are close enough to do just about…everything. You may think that I'm strong, and I am. But thoughts like these can crumble even the most sturdiest of walls, my wall. It will shatter us, at the thought of losing loved ones.

All I can really think about is Fox and I, and how Krystal plays in this game, a triangle, that's what it is. Were just pawns in this game of life, and its Fox's move, for not at least. No, it's not. It's my turn.

Miyu got up from where she was standing, and started heading back to the home.

I have to do something, I'm loosing Fox, and I will not just stand aside and let him walk away. I don't know what, but there must be something I can do.

It was dark already, Miyu walked in the front doors, to see Fay sitting in the chair, reading a newspaper, she got up when she saw Miyu walk in.

"Are you alright?" She asked her dear friend, with much concern in her tone.

"Yea, I think I'm fine."

"That's a relief; dinner is on the counter if you want some." Fay pointed to a little tray of food, left for Miyu, she looked back to Fay.

"Do you know where Fox is?"

"I think he's asleep or at least in his room." She shot her a strange look. "Why?"

"I need to talk to him."

"No offense Miyu, but he's not exactly in the mood." Miyu started walking down the hallway as she spoke.

"Yea? Well I don't care." She went down the hallway, until she reached Fox's door. She knocked on it, calling out to him.

"Fox?" Their was no response, she tried again.

"Fox, are you up?" Still nothing, she decided to slowly open the door, only to discover it's locked.

"Damn." She looked up to the hall tree. "Their must be a key around here somewhere." She searched the high roof for a key, at the very end she found it, a little dusty; she put it in the lock and turned it, activated the tumbler, but kept the door closed.

Maybe I, shouldn't go in after all. She was about to relock it, until she set herself straight. No, I have to talk to him now. Before I lose him forever. She slowly crept the door open, not wanting to awaken him. She walked in and closed the door behind her, relocking it. She studied the sleeping vulpine in the bed; he looked disturbed somehow, as if in a bad dream, but was soundly asleep. She slowly tip pie toed to his side. And got onto her knees.

It seemed for the longest of times, she just watched him sleep. She finally decided she needed to wake him.

"Fox." She shook him lightly; he fluttered his eyes, but didn't awaken.

"Fox!" She screamed in his ear, he immediately bolted up and fell over the top of the bed, landing on the other side. He got up, looking around to see what had just happened. He looked over and saw Miyu kneeling down near his bed.

"Hey! What are you doing in here!?"

"I need to talk to you." She got up onto her feet, Fox walked over to her.

"Yea? Well I don't want to talk to you right now, come back later or something." Fox was about to reach for his blanket, until his paw was caught by Miyu, he glared her down, only to receive her's back at him.

"No, were going to talk now. Whether you like it or not." Fox bared his fangs and growled deeply.

"Make me."

"Fine, I will." She reached for his other paw, they had a little struggle contest, until she put on enough weight to make themselves fall back onto the bed, with Miyu laying on top of Fox. He struggled to break free of her grasp, but couldn't seem to be able to, she had him cornered on his pressure points, and felt sharp pain whenever he tried to break free.

"Just, calm down." She grunted through her teeth, trying to keep Fox under control.

"Get off of me!" Fox was angry; she couldn't keep him under control. He was grunting so loudly, anyone could hear him. She had to quiet him down somehow, but couldn't, both her paws were occupied.

Unless. She thought to herself, and closed her eyes. It's the only way, to tame him. Miyu quickly pressed her lips against Fox's, his eyes suddenly widening open, and getting quiet almost immediately. They just stayed like that for a moment.

What's happening to me? All my anger, and hate. It's…Being purified, lifted away. Fox thought to himself, this mood he was feeling was of happiness and bliss. He didn't want to admit hit, but all of a sudden, the only thing he wanted to do, was be with Miyu. Miyu removed her lips from him and looked down to him, a few tears forming in her eyes. They stared endlessly at one another, taking in the beauty of the other's eyes. Fox could feel a few tears forming in the corner of his eyes, He breathed deeply.

Miyu turned her grasp on Fox into a strangle hug after seeing him calm down, Fox wrapped his arms around her, he no longer felt uneasy, or guilty of what he must do. They were together again, in each other's arms, no longer distanced by the feelings of anguish and despair. Fox released his grasp with one arm, and made his way down to Miyu's zipper…

Miyu awoke, hours later. She slowly stirred awake, and noticed something was out of place, what happened last night? Or what happened hours ago? Her eyes suddenly widened when she felt that feeling, she wasn't wearing any clothing. She quickly grabbed the blankets and pulled them upwards, covering herself up. She looked around the room; it was a disaster, as if a black hole came through here, she noticed, that clothing was laying everywhere, her clothing.

It was still pretty dark around her, so it must have been late at night, probably an hour or two before the sun would rise. She heard the sound of someone breathing, and looked to her left; to see Fox sleeping soundly beside her. She then took in the reality of what has happened, and couldn't believe it. She noticed his arm wrapped around her waist. She gasped, and covered her mouth with her paws. She got up, leaning on the bed frame; covering her breasts with the covers. She held her head down.

Did we just really…Sleep together? They must have, their was no other way to explain the situation at hand. Miyu looked around the room, and found her bra and panties, placing them in their appropriate locations. She slowly got out of the bed, not wanting to awaken Fox, and headed out for the balcony, she needed some air. She took many deep breathes, but it didn't work, it didn't calm her down. She ran into the bathroom, and immediately turned on the sink. She cupped her hands and splashed her face with water, trying to awaken herself to reality.

But this was reality. She had to accept the fact, that she and Fox just spent the night together. She made her way back outside to the balcony, looking out to the infinite blackness.

We did, just slept together. But, why did I do that? She tried to find an answer for herself. Did I, do that out of desperation? Because I knew I was loosing him and had to find a way to make him listen to me? Or did I do that, because we are really in love, performing what you do when passion goes so far. She was cursing herself inside her head, this wasn't right, she felt lower then she really was, but then got another thought.

What should I do now? I wish I could just take it all back. No, why should I? I love Fox; he loves me, that's how life is. She walked back inside the room, to her side of the bed and starred at the sleeping vulpine, it was hard to think exactly of what he was thinking. But, it seemed he wasn't phased by it, or at least just as stunned as she was.

I should just leave, before he wakes up. Miyu started gathering all of her clothes, and made a big pile within her arms; she turned and reached for the door knob, but stopped.

No, why should I? I shouldn't be ashamed of myself. She turned back to Fox, and walked back to the bedside. I love that vulpine, all I did was prove it to him. Miyu tossed her clothing to her side, allowing them to scatter all over the place. She slowly reached around to her backside, and loosened her garments. Letting them fall to the ground. She climbed back into the bed with the young vulpine; she looked up to his attuned sleep, smiling sweetly to him. She kissed the top of his forehead, whispering gently to him.

"I love you, Fox McCloud." She took her original position in the bed, under his arm; close to him, embracing him.

He'll have to realize what's happened, once he wakes up. I can't run, I won't run away.

Sorry if the whole, *Love Making* scene is all…weird, I've never written anything like that, so I guess I just write it as I would have scene it as. =D Thanks for you're understanding.
