Author: Anyway I don't own MCL, Music and Anime…see how emotional and random he is folks?

3rd P.O.V

She ran as fast as she could. It was all planned, she had what she needed and now it was only a matter of time. It was pouring out with a sickly ghostly fog. It was hard to see. She didn't have an umbrella, she didn't have a raincoat...not even boots.

There wasn't a moment to lose, a single second to waste. She would be there no matter what. 'Wait for me baby...I'll be there soon!' She slips on the wet pavement...smashing her knees. She winced but overall ignored the pain...she couldn't stop, not after everything.

Flashback

'For Kira...for myself I won't back down!' The music began playing. It was the very song she would've used about a year ago...the angelic dancer felt a lot of regret...wishing so much she could turn back the clock. But she also knew, she became a better person.

"Into The Night"

Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell,

It was love from above, that could save me from hell,

Her eyes flashed, as the soft cloth began sliding on the dancing arena. She could've been the world's most renown dancer. She might've made millions of dollars. She doesn't want that though. She might've desired it before...now she knew it wouldn't bring happiness.

She had fire in her soul it was easy to see,

how the devil himself could be pulled out of me,

There were drums in the air as she started to dance,

Every soul in the room keeping time with there hands,

And we sang...

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

And the voices rang like the angels sing,

We're singing...

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

What she craved...was a warm loving home, being able to be with those she loves and who love her. Her life began when her parents died. Forever more she will blame herself for their deaths, but she won't let that sink to a path of despair.

And we danced on into the night,

Ay oh ay oh,

Ay oh ay oh,

And we danced on into the night,

Like a piece to the puzzle that falls into place,

You could tell how we felt from the look on our faces,

we was spinning in circles with the moon in our eyes,

The room left them moving between you and I,

We forgot where we were and we lost track of time,

And we sang to the wind as we danced through the night,

She would make things right, raising her sisters. Keepin Dusk out of trouble, a must be duty she had been fated with. And even...being with Nathaniel. Allowing herself to be free of the burdens she's forced herself to carry.

And we sang...

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

And the voices rang like the angels sing,

We're singing...

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

And we danced on into the night,

Ay oh ay oh,

Ay oh ay oh,

Like in the song, her friends, her remaining family and her lover set her free. She was no Angel in the Night, but they were, her guardians. She owed them an eternities worth of debt. She laughs mentally.

And we danced on into the night,

Ay oh ay oh,

Ay oh ay oh,

And we danced on into the night,

Back a year ago she would've chosen this song based on something stupid. She wasn't a snob, but her mind wasn't as clear...just a puppet who loved to dance. Now going through the hardships she would never take something granted again.

Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell,

It was love from above, that could save me from hell,

She had fire in her soul it was easy to see,

how the devil himself could be pulled out of me,

There were drums in the air as she started to dance,

Every soul in the room keeping time with there hands,

And we sang...

She would be at last released from her grief. Living by her own rules. Before that however she needed that prize money. Kira's been ill...struck with a heart disease. She can be saved...but it's not cheap.

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

And the voices rang like the angels sing,

We're singing...

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

The audience, both friend and foe looked at the tear stained angel. Entranced as her movements flowed so gently, Like the wind, her heart rang true, soaring across the sky, the seas, the earth.

And we danced on into the night,

Ay oh ay oh,

Ay oh ay oh,

And we danced on into the night,

(And the voices rang like the angels sing),

Ay oh ay oh,

Ay oh ay oh,

The chains that bound her to a stage broke. No longer would she be fallen. Tonight, now until her last dying breath, even with the fact that her name may no longer be remembered, she had felt joy. Truly she found her place.

And we danced on into the night,

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

(Ay oh ay oh),

Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

(Ay oh ay oh),

Sheena Angel Rose now knew who she is and where she belonged.

Singing ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,

(Ay oh ay oh),

And we danced on into the night…

It would be a long time before the crowds would stop showing their excitement, clapping even though their hands were red from the pain. They would cheer, scream, and whistle for the one that in their hearts truly was a phantom.

Sheena could feel her limbs, they were heavy, ready to fail at any moment. But she wouldn't stop, not until she made it to her destination. By car it would've only been 10 minutes away. She however was on foot, making it a much longer trip.

"She'll be here Kira...you know she will." She was in bed, anxious, her eldest sister promised that she'd be there as she goes under for her surgery. And that she would stay, watch over her, and smile when she woke up. She nods, but she glances at his wrist watch.

Nathaniel was with her, Dusk and Mia were talking to the doctors, stalling and also getting whatever information they could out of the man. "I hope she's ok…" Sheena went to the bank. Making sure she had enough money to pay the expenses.

Over the past several months she had been working. Doing whatever side jobs she could, saving. Now she fights a storm and a clock to keep her promise. She was on the road. "I'm almost there…" She heard a honk, and her eyes widened in shock but lights soon blinded her.

"What's taking her so long!?" Pacing was Luna, Raya was frowning. Thunder clashed, you could barely make heads or tails out there.

It was a half an hour...before the annoyed doctor came into the youngest Rose's room. "I'm sorry Kira, but we have to start. I have other appointments to assist with today." She tried to protest. "Wait...hold it right there."

Eyes turned to the door. It was Sheena...she was soaked to the bone, her clothes cling to her, her hair was a drenched mess. Lysander was by her side, his coat draped over the cold girl. "I'm here…I'm here."

She made her way over to Kira, intersecting hands. "You made it…" A wink was thrown her way. "Wouldn't miss this for the world." The money was paid, the equipment was prepared and now Kira had the relief of knowing her family was with her.

As she closed her eyes, as the knockout gas did it's work she heard a quiet goodbye. "Damn it Sheena you worried us sick...and how come you came in with my boyfriend?" Dusk looked at the two...she was half teasing, half serious.

She wouldn't mind sharing Lys, but she got first dibs...especially Since Sheena was dating Nathaniel. Her reward...a smack on the head. "Baka! I nearly get run over coming here and That's what you worried about?" Leave it to those two to break the tense atmosphere.

Her cheek gets pulled. "Owwwieesss...I'm sowryyyy!" Lysander sighs, explaining what happened. He had been on his way to the hospital. As he promised he would. He had dropped off Castiel at his home and was only a couple moments away.

When he saw another car pass him. He couldn't see much, but he heard a shriek and stopped the car off to the side. Keeping the car lights on, he made his way. It had turned out that the car that decided to be rude and pass him, slipped on the road.

Nearly colliding with Sheena. She had barely gotten out of the way. After calling the police of the accident, getting names and the story, the two were free to go. Lys knowing they were heading the same way, offered a ride and an extra jacket he had in the car.

"Now what does being a jealous person get you?" During the story Sheena was still pulling her cousins cheek, annoyed. "Nowwerhe. Pwease wet mre gow!" One last tug and snap…"What a day…" She sits down with a thud. Laying her head on her boyfriends shoulder.

"Sweetie, you'll catch a cold in those clothes, here!" Lacking the energy she's unable to protest as Auntie Mia drags her niece into the bathroom. A long sleeved sweater and long skirt. "Thanks." Feeling better, now that she was in warm dry clothes~

It was several hours that the operation took place. The group were doing their best to keep themselves occupied. Playing cards. "Last card~" Groans. Watching anime…"Ugh you idiot, kiss her already!" Shhhhhhes! Napping. "Aww how cute~" Photos taken.

The day passed by in a unstable blur, doctors and nurses running in and out of the room. Night fell, Mia took the kids home, Nathaniel and Lysander had to leave. Leaving Dusk and her cousin to stay.

'Perfect chance.' "So Dusk...is it true that you like Mia's outfits?" The girl was drinking a soda...and sadly wasted it. Spitting it out. "What!? Pfff no, I mean why would I, it's girly it's stupid it's-ok yes yes fine I like them happy?"

As much as she wanted to...she couldn't lie. "SO why don't you wear it? And why do you say you hate it?" A look to the left, a look to the right, and back again. "Ok...it's personal...when I was little...I was Mia's dress up doll, I wore dresses, frills, ribbons."

She even had a picture or two on her phone, it had a million codes and locks. But it was stunning. See the gothic lolita and cosplay maniac wear such cutesy outfits. "Ok...continue please~" She wasn't going to let her cousin drop it.

"I was made fun of for wearing them. Girls picked on me for how I looked. I got sick of it and took a 180 in middle school. I have a rep cous, I can't just openly admit it, Especially with people like Peggy and Castiel on the Prowl…" A good point.

'Still...' "Why didn't you tell me? And aren't auntie's clothes popular?" The elder Rose snorts. "Yeah. But they didn't know it was moms designs. I wasn't raised to be a gloating snob. A gloater on her own yes...when dealing with bitches, yes a snob, but never a combo."

An answer still wasn't given...and Sheena didn't let it go. "Blarg! I didn't tell you cause it's embarrassing. I changed and I don't feel like going back, i fell in love with black and red. And it's funnier when I see Kira and the others become Mia's victims." Both laugh.

For it was true. Not that Kira minded. She loved clothes. But then A dark aura appeared around the psycho teen. "Tell anyone and I will do horrible things cousin." An eyebrows raised. "You know me...I wouldn't tell, not for something this important." An inside tease yes...but she wouldn't tell.

Content both girls remained seated in silent. Going off to their own La La lands...until Mia snapped them out of it and brought them home. The next morning they return to the hospital. Speaking to the doctor in charge.

"She'll be here in the hospital for a little while longer. But if she takes her medications and doesn't over do things, she'll make a fine recovery." Dusk snickers. "If she's anything like Shishi, then we're in trouble." Hand, Dusk...smack.

Everyone couldn't help but chuckle in agreement. Causing the girl to pout...Walking they open the door, surprised and happy that the girl was awake. "Morwning." She yawns still tired. Tears messed with Sheena's vision. She gripped Kira's hand. "Morning."

She was scared...she didn't show it but she was. Last time someone she cared for was in the operating room they didn't make it out. She couldn't be more joyous at this moment. Seeing Kira smile, Ray and Luna, hugging them. It was a blissful sight.

The siblings were kicked out eventually. So Kira could get some rest. Nathaniel walked with Sheena...just to get some fresh air. Side by side hand in hand. The couple takes things in stride, both of them were no longer bound. Both had ripped off their chains.

He kisses her initiating an embrace. Able to do as they pleased. They found one another, supported each other, helped them fight their inner demons. For the two of them the future seems much less scary. "Hey you love birds get a room!" Especially with Dusk around.

Author Notes: Not what I planned with an ending but I think it worked out pretty good. I hope you all liked it and thank you for sticking to the end. For now only RPG will be worked on as far as my candy love. I'll do my best to get chapters done. I have much to do and so little time. But still thank you all, and Tchao for now~
