Best Left Untold
Kuja stumbled, he didn't know where to go, what to do.'How can I be alive...?' Kuja was so confused. He then heard the clang of weapons. His head whipped around. Fratly was fighting Zidane, Zidane prepared to strike down again, Kuja rushed to help. 'Look's like Zidane's orders kicked in, but why now?!?!'*1 Kuja didn't arrive in time and Zidane made a fatal wound. Fratly was still alive, but for how long...? Zidane rose his Ultima Weapon again. This one was to kill. Kuja rushed over, catching the blade in his shoulder. Kuja kicked Zidane in the jaw. Kuja then punched him in the stomache, twice. With one more kick, Zidane retreated. Kuja bent down next to Fratly.
"W-why...? Fratly began.
"I fell in love with her," What harm would telling a dying man his secret do? Fratly's eyes widened as realization struck.
"...you know, she loaths you... You'll only hurt her..." Fratly muttered.
"I..." Kuja flinched.
"You destroyed her home, our home. You destroyed Cleyra without so much as a second glance. You have done things that no one can even dream to forgive!" Fratly struggled to get the words out. Kuja winced, as if Fratly had punched him. Those words hurt.
"I won't hurt her..." Kuja whispered.
"The very sight of you will hurt her, you're nothing but a monster, an animal. Barely human, barely a being," With that last phrase, Fratly breathed his last. The words stung Kuja, 'Barely human, barely a being' He began to head over to Quan's Dwelling, where he had last seen Zidane and his comrads.
He felt blood trickle down his arm, but he didn't care. It didn't hurt. His heart hurt, 'Well,' He thought grimly, 'At least now I know I have a heart... This secret, it's one that is best left untold..'
*1: His orders, ya know, instructions at creation, to controll something or whatnot. Like when Kuja went crazy and started hacking away at Gaia's population.
