"Well without further ado," Fei Wang said, "Let's begin."

"You're crazy!" Sakura screamed, "I'll never help you!"

"My dear, you act as if you have a choice,"

Suddenly it was as if a switch was flipped and Fai saw a huge amount of life energy flow into Sakura. She tried to resist, her eyes bulged and her fists clenched, but eventually she succumb and Fai could see her eyes dilate till her could no longer see her pretty green irises. Her back glowed a brilliant gold and Fai watched in horror as huge white and pink wings erupted from her back.

"It's working!" Fei Wang screamed, "Tsubasa has awakened! Quickly feed her the sacrifices."

Kyle chanted some sort of spell and Fai felt like his whole body was on fire. He screamed and writhed around in the bottom of the sphere and looked over to see his companions doing the same.

Suddenly Fai heard a loud pop. Then he certain he had died because he could hear a gruff, wonderful, voice call his name. Fai couldn't help but wonder why the horrific burning pain was still continuing after his death. Maybe this was what hell felt like.

But then Fai could hear yelling and the crashing of sword on sword. He opened his eyes and there standing just a few feet away was the man he loved more than life and air.

"Kurogane!" Fai knew it was a breathy pain filled scream. Kurogane fought his way closer and closer Fai.

Fai felt his pain dissipate suddenly and he collapsed in a crumpled mess on the floor as the sphere disappeared beneath him, never once taking his eyes off Kurogane.

Kurogane saw Doumeki's arrow meet its mark and Kyle fall. After that Fai collapsed and fell out of the weird ball thing and Kurogane saw his pretty blue eyes close as he fell unconscious.

Fei Wang Reed was shouting, "No! It wasn't supposed to happen this way! I can't fail, if I fail…"

Then Doumeki was shouting.

"No! Watanuki, hold on!"

Kurogane turned to see that Watanuki had been freed from his bubble and was convulsing and coughing up blood. Syaoran, who was carrying an unconscious Sakura walked over to the Couple and Subaru followed shakily after.

Subaru gently placed a hand on Watanuki's forehead and closed his eyes. After a moment he shook his head.

"It's no good, he's lost too much of his life energy."

"Give him my life then!" Doumeki yelled.

Watanuki lifted a bloody hand to Doumeki's face, "D-don't you dare give up your life for mine you bastard. I-if you do I s-swear I'll kill myself and then I-I'll find you on the other side and make your afterlife a h-hell."

Watanuki's voice was weak and trembling as he spoke, "Geez, even when I'm d-dying you cause me trouble. I wonder why I f-fell in l-love with such an ass."

Doumeki clutched the shuddering boy closer to him, "God, Watanuki, don't do this to me. Please don't leave me!"

All of a sudden the commotion ceased and a new player was there.

"Fei," Said Yuko, "It's hard to believe you've fallen these far, harming children to achieve your goal."

"I did it all for you," He said, "Everything, everything I've done, I've done for you."

"Oh, so murdering your best friend was somehow for my sake?"

"I did it so we could be together, Clow was just in the way, he could never love you the way I do! It wasn't until later that I found out your soul was bound to his. I never intended for you to get hurt," He looked at her pleadingly, "But I fixed things! I kept you from dying with him."

"You deprived me of a death with the man I love and trapped me in an existence worse than death. To live for the fulfillment of other's wishes but never being allowed to seek your own? That is a fate worse than anything you could have done to Clow!" Yuko cried.

"That's why I'm doing this," He gestured around the room, "To fully resurrect you! To bring you back just as you were. And then…"

"And then, what?" Yuko spoke coldly, "I'll just decide I want to be with you forever? Clow was the only man I'll ever love. And as of this moment you have no more power over me." She looked sadly at the gathered children, "Thank you for giving me back my freedom. Please take care of my son," She looked fondly at Watanuki.

"Your what?" Fei Wang and Watanuki said in unison.

"Yes, Watanuki is my and Clow's only child," The group watched as Yuko began to fade away, starting at her feet and moving upward, "There was a flaw in you spell Fei, it stopped me from ending my own life, not from giving it to my son. Goodbye."

With that a small black butterfly came and rested against Watanuki's chest before disappearing inside. A warm light surrounded Watanuki and he took a deep shuddering breath before sitting up with tears in his eyes.

"No!" Fei Wang screamed, launching himself at Watanuki but Subaru shielded him and was caught by his neck, "How dare you interfere! I'll kill you! I'll snap your neck like a twig!"

Suddenly red light and smoke filled the room and from this emerged a figure.

"Fei Wang," A deadly voice quietly spoke, "You dare to touch what's mine?"

"Seshiro," Subaru choked out.

"I remember you," Fei Wang yelled, "I cursed you a year ago to kill the only one you were capable of loving. You nearly did too, beat him and cut him so horribly. You tried to thwart my curse by killing this person's twin, and claiming not to love him to keep him away, but it backfired when he came looking for revenge."

"Yeah," Seshiro said his voice lower than before.

"You were glad to let him kill you if it would keep him safe, but when the time came he just couldn't do it, could he?"

"No, I always did say Subaru was too soft hearted," He looked right at the boy who was staring at him with wide eyes as everything suddenly fell into place in his mind.

"One has to wonder how someone so soft managed to tame the heart of a demon."

"Yes, I suppose one does. Now I'm only going to ask you once more, release Subaru."

"Not a chance," The words were barely out of his mouth before Subaru had been plucked from his grasp and was being held securely in the arms of his demon. Then Seshiro drew his sword from its sheath and stabbed Fei Wang Reed through the heart.

"No…" Fei Wang whispered as he began to disappear, "Yuko…I loved you. I loved you so much, why wasn't it enough?"

And then he was gone and silence filled the room.

Until a slap rang out.

Seshiro rubbed the pink hand print on his cheek, "There are very few who can strike a demon and live, consider yourself one of the elite Subaru."

"That," Subaru huffed, "Was for all the pain and torment you put me through!"

Subaru stood on his tiptoes and kissed Seshiro fiercely.

"And that," he sobbed pulling back slightly, "Is for being the stupidest demon to ever grace the universe, and also the man I love."

"I've missed you Subaru," Seshiro said, clutching the sobbing boy to his chest, "I love you, and this time I don't intend to let you go. You're mine, now and forever."

The two embraced, and for them it was like the rest of the world simply fell away.

Watanuki was crying, "All these years I thought my parents were dead, but for the past two years I've seen my mother almost every day. I can see it. She's showing me what happened. When I was born they knew someone was trying to kill them so they gave me away. The reason I was pulled into the shop that day was because it recognized me. She knew who I was the moment she met me. She just wanted to know me; she never expected to truly love me as her son. Oh god, Yuko…" Watanuki descended into tears.

Fai was awake now and he reached out and clutched onto Kurogane, "Please tell me you're really here," He coughed, "Please tell me that I'm not dreaming and that you really are alive."

"Of course I'm alive, dumbass," Kurogane said pulling Fai close and kissing his lips, "Why wouldn't I be?"

Fai heard a strangled choking beside him and turned to see Ashura was still alive and had tears rolling down his face. Fai disentangled himself from Kurogane and knelt beside the man who had been his savior, his parent, and his tormentor.

"You lied," Fai said simply.

"O-of course," Ashura stuttered, "How c-could you expect a-any less?"

"You've always been a liar," Fai replied feeling tears prick his eyes.

"T-that's true," Ashura said, "But h-here are t-two truths. I w-will always love you Fai, and, I'm sorry."

Fai felt his animosity for this man vanish. Instead he felt something like pity well up inside him, and moving very slowly he bent his head and placed a feather light kiss to Ashura's forehead.

Ashura's eyes opened wide in shock, "I-I didn't deserve that."

"I know," Fai said, feeling his tears spill over.

Ashura smiled peacefully and closed his eyes, "I don't deserve those tears either."

"I know."

"Thank you," Ashura whispered and then with a final shuddering breath he fell limp.

Fai felt Kurogane behind him and he turned and buried his face in Kurogane's chest, sobbing brokenly. Kurogane shushed him and whispered sweet nothings in his ear, all the while stroking his hair.

"He said y-you were dead," Fai sobbed, "He said such terrible things."

"Shhh, baby," Kurogane whispered, "It's going to take a lot more than Ashura to kill me."

Fai sobbed harder and clutched at Kurogane's shirt, "I love you, I love you, I love you…"

"I love you too Fai," Kurogane replied, "Come on, let's go home."

Well this is the last chapter, all that's left is the epilogue. Please Review!
