AnimeCat: I DIDN'T WRITE THIS!!! My friend, a to-be-authoress very soon, Nimue, wrote this. She had me post it to reduce confusion for Demons fans. I personally think I couldn't have done better if I tried, because she did an AMAZING job(I wonder how many times I've told her that...)
Review!!! And then, when Nimue gets her work out under her own thing R&R her work, too!!!!!

Note: This takes place right after Dorothy is killed and everyone leaves.
Kien watched the retreating figure of DeathsWings until it was no more than a speck among the endless stars of outer space.
"So," he said to no one, "This is how it feels to have your heart broken."
*Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life*
Did Aseka have any idea what she was putting him through? Surely, she had to understand why he had self-detonated. She had even done it once herself.
*And you're not thinking about tomorrow
'Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees*
"We are the same…All of us Gundam pilots. We've all had to feel pain and suffering that kids our age wouldn't even dream about." Kien realized he was talking to himself, but it didn't matter anymore.
*A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?*
Kien remembered the first time he kissed her. He could tell she'd never kissed anyone before, but still, it had been absolutely perfect.
*I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb*
Kien turned and started walking back to the shuttle, feeling the hot tears welling up in his eyes.
*Comin' down, the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?*
"Well, I hope you're happy, Aseka. You've succeeded in not getting distracted from your mission. And you've lost another friend," Kien said bitterly, unable to keep the tears back any longer.
*You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew*
Kien climbed into the shuttle and started making preparations for takeoff, not bothering to dry his eyes.
*What's the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room*
The shuttle left the hangar and flew off into the eternal darkness of space. Kien watched as his tears formed floating, sparkling beads in the zero gravity inside the shuttle.
*Coming down the world turned over
As angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Always someone's there*
It would probably take an hour to get back to Earth; the shuttle was rather low on fuel and was damaged. Kien closed his eyes and tried not to think about anything.
Suddenly, the light signaling he had a transmission flashed on. Although he really didn't want to talk to anyone, his soldier instinct kicked in and told him to answer it. It was probably Mom or Dad wanting to know if he was OK.
He pressed the button to accept the transmission, and almost immediately ended it when he saw who it was.
For a few seconds, neither of them said anything. Kien broke the silence with a simple question:
"Why?"
The violet eyes turned away from him. "I just wanted to say…that I'm sorry." Aseka said, as cold as ever. But there was something else in her voice that Kien couldn't quite put his finger on…
"You damn well should be sorry," Kien said softly, feeling his anger rise.
"And….that I forgive you."
Kien looked at her in shock. This was not what he had expected. "I don't know if I'm ready to forgive /you/ yet. Do you have any idea what you've put me through?"
Aseka was silent for a few seconds. "Yes," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
*And there's no time left for losing
When you stand they fall*
"And I am so sorry…You didn't deserve any of it."
Kien wanted to forgive her that very instant, but something in his heart told him that he wasn't ready yet. "You know, there were so many times I wondered why I kept trying to be your friend. You kept pushing me away, even though you knew I cared about you. Do you know why I kept trying? Why I was attempting to make friends with someone who seemed so heartless and incapable of love?"
"Why?" Kien saw her eyes filling with tears, and felt the ache of the last few pieces of his heart.
"Because you cared about me, deep down in that heart I know you have."
*Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm*
Aseka was crying now. "Please don't cry, Aseka," Kien said, although he was still crying himself.
*Comin' down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there*
"Where are you going now, Kien?" Aseka asked him.
"Home to the Sanq Kingdom."
"Can I…come with you?" She asked timidly.
"Sure you can."
*I'll go on to bring you home
And I'll become
What you became to me*
