Mira: Slowly looks around sheepishly. Yea... I am sorry for the long wait...my roommate was crazy...I mean...I feared for my life crazy so...needless to say I ran away. Nevertheless...

Here is a small little something for you. My next three chapters were erased and as such need to be redone. So I decided to give you something for being so insanely patient...

Here is Alex and Edmund's memory of Sablier! Enjoy!

Edmund slammed into the ground harshly as his sword held the giant scythe at his neck at bay. "Jack have you lost your mind, Otouto-Chan?" He questioned with a grunt as he pushed himself to his knees, bracing a hand to the ground. "You know what will happen if you destroy the worlds chains...why...why..." His head tilted looking at the figure that lay behind him. Gilbert wasn't moving and he could feel the life slowly draining from the boy. "Why have you done this!" He demanded as he turned to glare at his brother.

Jack chuckled lightly. "Ne, Onii-San...Why do you always, always have to get in my way?" He asked with a grin. "It would have been better if you never existed. You always seem to ruin my plans..." He said with a chuckle as he looked down at his oldere brother. "Thanks to you, I could never just kill the tainted and sinful Vessalius family as I desired... You always had to keep a light in the sinful infested darkness didn't you?"

"Jack..." Edmund called through gritted teeth. His eyes widened and his arm shot up to block the chain that shot toward him. He gagged as the chain snapped around his arm followed by his neck.

"You're still too kindhearted and pathetic, Onii-San... Always so...perfect..."

"Jack..."

Jack jerked around wildly his eyes landing on the figure a few feet away from him. Wide emerald eyes took in the features of the girl in front of him with a sense of deep possession. Behind him a deep mournful growl sounded as the whimper of an animal. The giant scythe wielding black rabbit crouching with a tremble behind the man. The chains tightened around Edmund pulling him to slam into the ground. A mixture of cloaks and life surrounded them with the remains of large golden chains.

"...You..."

Edmund gasped for breath as the chains finally fell from the rabbits lack of attention. Sitting back he pushed away and knelt by his sword grasping it and reaching out to check Gilbert's pulse once more. Alex blinked rapidly, her lip held tightly between her teeth as she took in the sight before her. Even her limited abilities allowed her to see the flickering fading lights that had once marked a Baskerville. Her eyes once more shot toward the pitiful creäture that had been bound the man before her. The rabbit whimpered once more edging toward a familiar comforting person.

"Oh, Os..." She whimpered in return, taking a step forward as if to comfort it and stopping herself as her foot hit a remaining bit of chain. She shook her head. "Why...why are you doing this Jack?"

Those calming deceptive eyes continued to watch her, however a twisted bright grin crossed his face as he laughed happily. "You understand...you have to understand..." He says desperately as he moved toward her. "You have to know!" He exclaims as he stops before her. "She told you right? She told you her true feelings, she told you everything... You were her copy, her replacement. She loved and protected you because you were her, only separate right..." He said slinging his sword to the side and grabbing her shoulders harshly.

Alex shook her head a grimace crossing her face at the sight of someone so dear acting this way. "Your wrong...this isn't what Onee-Sama wanted. You have it wrong Jack." She said softly comfortingly. Her face jerked to the side as his hand collided with it, she stared at the ground of crimson before her body was violently shaken.

"Liar! Why are you lieing? You...you promised... You said you would do anything for her! You loved her, she was your savior, you are the same as me! So why are you lieing!" Jack demanded as he shook the girl, his hands tightening painfully. "Didn't we promise to do anything, ANYTHING for her!" Jack snarled and dropped his head his shoulders trembling.

Alex stared at his bowed head blankly, pain and despair in her eyes. "Jack..."

"You liar!" He roared with a jerk of his head staring at her with vicious cruel eyes. "Then again, maybe you always wanted her to suffer, maybe you had planned it all along. You wanted to take her place. To erase her from everything. That's why your lieing. That's why you won't let me give her what she loved so dearly. You never cared..." He said with a cruel chuckle as he dropped his hands.

"I did...I do...that's why you can't Jack. She would never forgive you. This isn't what she wanted. This isn't what she sacrific-"

"She was stolen! She was taken away from us unwillingly! Just as they want to take you too! Don't you see... I promised to look after you, we all did. You were so special to her, that's why your special to everyone. That's why... that's why we are going to her together. I won't let you be ripped apart and erased like they did to her. I'll take everything she loved so dearly into the Abyss she cared for so daringly. I won't let you be erased by those monsters... I'll take you with us..." He said with a bright grin, wrapping his arms around her. "To Lacie..." He whispered lovingly.

Alex shook her head, wanting to tell him how wrong he was again. This wasn't what she wanted, this was the opposite. Her mind was filled with a heartbreak her own and another's. She reached up a hand to his arm only to stumble as he pushed her away, her ears filled with a regretful broken scream.

"Alex!"

Edmund pushed himself up to stare in horror and desperate pain as crimson once more spread across the ground. The giant scythe of the rabbit was jerked through his dear friend so easily so smoothly, effortlessly. Crimson wide eyes locked onto those of the sobbing beast that had forcefully sliced her apart.

Jack smiled softly, warmly as he caught Alex in his arms. He reached up softly brushing black messy hair,-wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, not the right shade, too dark, too long, not shiny enough, not soft enough- from her face. He looked into crimson eyes, -too bright, too caring, too happy, too loving, not dark enough, not cruel enough, too fragile much too fragile- and smiled softly. "We'll all go back to her together. To our Lacie..."
