Thanks for reading and special thanks for those who reviewed. What happened to some of my reviewers? (T_T).

I also fixed the mistake that I made. Fai is not Yuui. I repeat, she is not Yuui. It is fixed though.

Anyway, here I go.

A Lonely Soul

Chapter Twenty: Shot and Kill

Ashura came in, holding a gun in his right hand and some rope, paper, and a pen in his other hand. Kurogane stared at the gun in his hand and Fai looked at Ashura.

"What are you going to do?" asked Kurogane.

"Well, I now know how to get rid of you without suspension from the cops. I'm going to have you hang yourself", told Ashura.

"What! No one is going to believe that. The people who know me won't believe that", said Kurogane.

"They'll believe you if you have a suicide note saying that Fai left you for someone else. People do stupid things because of love", said Ashura and continue then said, "Now write the note or else and write something convincing." He gave Kurogane the paper and pen, pointing the gun at him. Fai looked at Kurogane.

Kurogane took the paper and pen and throw them to the ground.

"I'm not going to do what you want", told Kurogane.

Ashura started to have an angry look on his face. "You're going to what I say now so write the damn letter", ordered Ashura.

"No", shouted Kurogane.

Ashura began to shake in anger and said, "You're just like that damn brother of hers. He just won't tell me where she was so I had to take of him and before that, her parents and my parents. They won't let me have her so I had to take care of them. I just wanted her for myself, but no one would let me have her. It took me awhile before I could find her, but I did find her. It took me about six years to make her the way I wanted and I almost had her for myself, but then she was taken away from me and all my hard work went in vain. I have her now so I can change her back. I'm not going to let anyone ruin my plans."

Fai looked at Ashura when he mentioned her brother and parents.

"You killed my brother and parents. You killed them", cried Fai. She continued to repeat this quietly with tears in her eyes and on her face.

"Oh, don't cry, Fai. You didn't need them. You have me and I'm all whom you need", said Ashura, looking at her.

Kurogane stood in front of Fai, looking at Ashura with a rage expression on his face.

"How could you do that to her? She need her family, she needed them. What right do you have to take their lives? And your parents lives also? How could you their lives?" shouted Kurogane.

"I wanted her and I'll do anything to get what I want. I wanted Fai so I did what I could to get her", said Ashura. Fai cried even harder after hearing this.

Kurogane began to shake in rage. "You…You bastard, you're dead", shouted Kurogane, charging at him. Ashura fired his gun and the bullet hit Kurogane's left upper arm, but that didn't stop him or slowed him down at all. He attacked Ashura, both falling to the ground. The gun fell out of Ashura's hand and skidded across the floor. They wrestled on the floor, each hitting one another. Finally, Ashura punched the bullet wound and a harsh gasp came out of Kurogane.

Ashura got off of Kurogane and went to the gun. He picked it up and pointed it at Kurogane.

"I guess if I can't make it look like a suicide, I'll have to kill you and dump you somewhere where no one is going to find you", said Ashura as he slowly pulled the trigger. Kurogane looked up at Ashura from the floor, not showing fear.

"No", cried Fai as she ran up to Kurogane and held his head on her chest. She put herself between Kurogane and the gun.

"Fai, get out of the way", ordered Ashura.

"No, I won't let you hurt or kill anyone else. I won't let you kill Kurogane, I love him too much. You'll have to kill me first", told Fai, looking at Ashura.

Kurogane looked at her and said, "Please Fai, I don't want you to get hurt. Please move, Fai."

"No, too many people whom I've loved have been killed because of me. I won't let that happen to you. I love you too much", said Fai.

Ashura started to became even angrier seeing this. "Fai, move now", demanded Ashura. She didn't respond to him. Suddenly Ashura slapped her across her face. Fai gasped in pain, but didn't move. He started to hit her on her back, but she still didn't move. She clenched her teeth so that she wouldn't make a sound.

Kurogane tried to move so that he could stop Ashura from continuing to hurt Fai, but Fai held him tighter to herself. He started to feel dizzy from the loss of blood.

"Fai", he gasped in pain and said, "Please move." But Fai shook her head no.

Suddenly Ashura stopped hitting her. "Why are you protecting him? Why do you love, but not me?" he asked.

"Because I love him and no one else. I could never love anyone like I love him and that will never change, no matter what", told Fai. She started to feel the pain from beating he did on her, but she didn't move. Her vision began to go hazy. She looked at Ashura with an angry expression on her face.

Ashura's eyes widen at seeing her expression and began to shake a bit. "If I can't have you, I guess there isn't a reason for me to live", said Ashura. He took the gun and shot himself in the head. He fell to the floor with a thump. Ashura was dead.

Kurogane and Fai watched Ashura do this to himself. Tears began to form in Fai's eyes and come down her cheeks. She placed her face in Kurogane's hair and kissed his head.

"It's ok, Fai. We need to leave now", told Kurogane in pain. Fai nodded.

They started to stand up, Kurogane leaning against her for support with his uninjured arm wrapped around her shoulders and she wrapped her arms around his waist. They began to slowly walk out of the room. All of the sudden, Fai felt all his weight on her.

Fai knelt down onto the floor, still holding Kurogane.

"Kurogane, what's wrong?" Fai asked. She looked at him and saw that he was unconscious.

"Kurogane, wake up. Please wake up", she called out to him, but he didn't wake. She began to gently shake, but he didn't wake up.

Fai ran out of the room for help.

Done. Please review. Bye.
