Kai: Well I am glad you guys have enjoyed this story. This is the really final chapter of this story though it appears you guys still want more XD I was thinking about doing a sequal with M rated scenes, with Lightning being quite amusing about the subject XD though it seems you guys really like the story... I'm thinking I might make it longer then I thought my idea would have. Adding to who Lia really is (like her real name, who her family is, blah) and maybe adding a battle with a evil Fal'Cie and also a bit on Andraste with her sister. But that is up to you if you want all that. Also, to make it T rated, and just have you guys ask for the M rated scenes when they get there, or just make it M rated. I'm thinking about calling it The Sly Fox. Fitting isn't it XD

Lightning: *blushes*

Epilogue

Lightning sighed, tapping her fingers against her desk absently. She was currently in her office, having been promoted to Commander in Guardian Corp. It had been a month since the incident with Cao. It was assumed White Fox escaped, having killed the powerful commander and there has been a mad hunt for her, believing she studied witchcraft, or some bogus like that. Unfortunetly for them, there was no sign of her. There haven't even any crimes that led to her, most of the crimes lately have been just common thieves. That was also the last she seen Lia.

The soldier sighed softly, putting a finger on a pencil and gingerly rolling it back and forth absently. Lia had promised that they would see each other again... so where was she.

At that moment, was when Lightning's worries suddenly grew. What if her injuries were severe? What if some gang member mauled her and took advantage of her injured state? What if she was dead?

Thoughts whirled around the pink haired soldier's mind, forcing her hands to clench into fists, the pencil straining to keep in shape from the incredible force that was being put upon it. Warm tears were threatening to flow but the soldier was too stubborn to actually let them out.

That was then the phone rang.

Lightning blinked and picked up the phone after taking a moment to get her act together.

"Hello?" Lightning said in a cool cold tone of voice. Not really in the mood to hearing people complain or whatever shit they have to say.

"Um... Ms. Farron." said a slightly timid voice of a man.

It was Chuck.

Lightning gave a silent groan. Great, now what the hell was wrong? She wasn't really in the mood to go chasing around common criminals just because he couldn't handle them. In a way, it felt like he was terrible at it. She would constantly get calls from him, even though he commonly boasts on how he can handle any situation. Pathetic.

"What?" Lightning answered coldly with a hint of irritation.

There was silence for a moment, making the soldier just more irritated, till Chuck finally spoke up. "I-it's White Fox! She's back! She went and stole a necklace from Ms. Nabaat! From right under her nose they say! Hurry we need some assistance!" he said, sounding panicked since Jihl Nabaat would most likely have his head if he didn't succeed.

SNAP!

Broken pieces of the pencil fell to the desk, having been crushed by Lightning's fist, blue eyes wide with astonishment. Lia was alive... and she was already back to stealing? What the hell?

She silently growled. "I'm on my way!" she said immiedietly, hanging up the phone then dashing out the door.

She was going to see her, one way or another.

When Lightning reached Jihl, she was currently throwing a hissy fit and rampaging. Yelling at the officers and cops for them to get their lazy asses off and find her necklace. Lightning wasn't really paying attention to them though.

She looked around, leaving Jihl's house and walking along the sidewalk. Where was she? That was when she saw a shape dash as quick as a flash of lightning, into a alley.

Lightning had blinked for a moment, till she saw a glimpse of white silver hair, flutter up in the air, before it disappeared after its owner. The soldier instantly dashed after, giving chase. She could hear the footsteps of the fleeing person, as they dashed from alley to alley.

The soldier could barely keep up. She forced her self to dash faster, careful to examine any clues like footsteps. She took was about to run past another small dark alley till a hand reached out, grabbing her arm while the other went over her mouth and pulled her ing.

Lightning was struggling for a moment, about to elbow her attacker in the ribs till a familiar voice spoke up.

"Geez you sure can run fast you know?"

The hands then loosen their grip and settled on being wrapped around her waist, letting the soldier turn and look face to face with soft blue eyes.

Lia.

Lightning blinked a bit in astonishment, watching as Lia gave her a slightly goofy grin. Then softly glared at the thief, who looked surprised.

"Where the hell were you? It's been a month!"

Lia blinked but chuckled. "Sorry... I wanted to come but everyone kept fussing over me. Especially Flora, she insisted that I don't go." she said, the name leaving a bitter feeling in Lightning.

Lightning sighed softly. "Are you alright?" she asked softly, till she felt warm lips touch hers.

"Never been better, soldier." Lia purred softly and lovingly.

Lightning blush but returned the kiss. Feeling a inner bliss. In a way, Lightning guessed she had caught her thief to her heart.
