A/N: I only seen Run Lola Run once and I even missed the beginning but the story and image remained powerful in my head. So I have not seen the movie far too many times.

A/N: This may be the last time Piper and Leo will relive this... than again maybe not. Most people say 'third times a charm' but I'm not most people. So voice your opinion.

Leo turned the corner of the city building. Leo wasn't looking where he was going. He didn't see the homeless man. Even if Leo did see the bum there was no time to stop. It was all happening so fast.

Thump

"Fuck, next time watch where your going," said Leo franticly.

"I'm sorry, I'm very sorry. J-just don't hurt me," whimpered the fragile man.

"Ah for goodness sakes where's my bag?"

"..."

"I found my bag thanks for nothing."

"Sir-" the homeless man didn't get Leo's attention. He took off running again before the homeless man could tell him that...

"...You took the wrong bag."

The poor old man opens the bag to reveal its contents. A huge smile came upon his face showing what few teeth he had. Then the bum realizes that he must scurry before the young man figures out what had happened. Before the young man can take his rightful bag back. The old man gathered his things placed them in a stolen store cart.

' Ten minutes to spare. My lucky day!' Leo panted while he opened his bag. By the looks of his face he wasn't his lucky day anymore.

He screamed.

"This is it. This is how I'm going to depart this life," Leo whispered towards the heavens.

"Good Morning America it's currently 10 o'clock" chimed in the radio.

"I can't do this anymore. Please just let me die!" Piper shouted upward. The last time was much more horrible death than the first. The first time when Piper was killed she was taken by surprise. The last time Piper knew what was going to happen but it was more painful. Damn it. Piper had successfully gotten the money. She gave Leo's bosses the money and that time Leo didn't rob Wally's Market Place. It was supposed to be peachy keen from there on. Piper and Leo were given a second chance and they fucked up. If Leo hadn't defended her, would things go differently? How long is this charade going to last? Until justice is served or until the higher beings that are up to this gets tired.

Silence was what answered Piper's requested. Piper wanted out but she realized that she can't whoever was up to this was more determined than she was. With a new outlook Piper would die a hundred times more until they finally get it right. She was not going to give up.

"Holly shit. I better get out of here!" Piper quickly changed to her clothes. 10:04 the clock read. Piper runs out the door.

***

Ring.

Piper answers her cell phone whilst running.

"Leo" She glances at her wristwatch. 10:10 it read.

"I lost the money Piper. I'm such in idiot...I lost a thousand dollars that my bosses need TODAY."

"Leo, sweet heart, calm down. Stay in front of Wally's Market Place and wait for me. I'll have the money don't worry. I love you and just stay put. I have to go. Bye."

"Piper?" Leo asked shocked. 'What the hell,' he thought.

***

As Piper ran she had flashes of images of her moments with Leo. When they first met, first dated, first kissed etc. All these images flooding in Piper's mind. Only one of the images seemed to sick out more than the others, the night where they displayed the ultimate act of love. The aftermath of it seemed to stay in Piper's head not budging.

Piper remembers the discussion they had that night. She remembers how morbid it was.

----------------------------------

"Leo what happens after someone dies?"

"What do you mean?"

"Like do you believe in heaven?

"Yes. Piper, why are you asking this?"

"I just wanted to prepare myself for what's to come after I die."

"Too bad you won't find out. You're not going to die Piper. I'll die before you die."

"Leo I don't want you to die before me. I don't think I could bare it."

"Don't you think it's the same with me Piper? You're all I have."

"Maybe we shouldn't discuss this anymore."

"Fine. Just remember this Piper wherever you go whether its heaven or hell. I'll follow you."

-----------------------------------

'Argh why I'm I thinking about that' Piper thought. She was racking her brain and then suddenly she shouted "I'm I suppose to stop this 'cause my attempts failed. I can't stand back and let everything happen! Let nature takes it lovely fuckin' course!"

Not caring that people were starring Piper continued "Well screw that. You here me! I'm not going to give up. Fat chance." Piper knew it was pointless to shout but it sure as hell felt good.

Piper glanced down at her watch 10:15 it read. 'I'm going to make it' thought a very determined Piper as she ran in her father's building.
