Skitty swallowed hard; She was being faced with one of the biggest descions yet of her short-lived life.

She held a life in her hands, and not just any life-She held the life of one of the halves that had brought her into this world- Her father's.

Sure, he had been a bastard and transmuted her via Dark Alchemy into a cat chimera(After applying the process to himself, first.), but after her mother had died in childbearing he had done what most fathers don't; He had kept her.

Yet, she noted, now knowing that it was the truth-it hadn't been out of love or any familial ties.

No, he had wanted a human lab rat whom he could do illegal alchemic expiriments on, with no questions asked, and no fear of being reported to the authorites.

Ties that bind...

Hearing the safety catch click, Skitty swallowed her tears; The bastard deserved it, apart from herself he had taken quite a few innocent civilians to his lab-most who were never seen again.

The trigger was being pulled, and it was like she had been transported to another world, where the time is frozen in side and if you look out it looks like the frame-by-frame feature on most modern video machines.

The trigger was released, splattering blood, fragments of skull, and bits and pieces here and there of what had once been a brain, every which way. All in all, it was truly a gruesome sight to behold.

And those ties,

No longer bind.

Skitty guessed that someday they'd look back and find it a crucial point in their relationship-Knowing she'd never be able to look back and laugh at the murder of the flesh and blood that created her, but right now, she was more than certain that she was going to lose the very meager contents of her stomach if she stayed in the metalic-scented room with the blonde liuetenant indiffernt to the gore that bespeckled her clothing and very being as she wiped the evidance off her gun, any longer.

'I guess she's done this too many times to afford to care anymore.', Skitty thought as she ran out of the room; determined not to show any weakness in front of the war-hardened first-line liuetenant.

Half-way through the cleaning process, Riza vaguely wondered where Skitty had wandered off to; The answer was revealed to her later when she entered her room and saw Black Hayate and her curled up on the bed, asleep. Skitty's face was buried in the dog's fur, not betraying the cat-chimera's 'weakness' to the blonde.

Chrnoskitty: Gah! I love my dad very much, so I was crying while writing this; And my dad is nowhere near as evil as I made Skitty's...BUT, I think he was in some sort of accident that made him psychotic...And I made him really cute looking in my mind to...just imagine a black haired, cat-eared, teen bishonen, AND NOT ROY!
