It was there on the steps of the Ziggaraut, there in the snow that I leared
what it was to love someone. I stood there, body and senses numb as Rock
kicked Kenichi in the stomach, sending him reeling to the ground. Rock took
a step toward me, picked up his sunglasses and put them back on. I stood
there, still numb, his gun in my shaky hands. Tentatively, I pointed it at
him, quietly sobbing to myself. "Go ahead, shoot if you can. I am a human
being, don't forget." he said coldly, waiting for the gun to drop. Instead,
I turned and aimed at the one person who had actually wanted to help me. I
spoke one, solitary word as I shot, "Kenichi." The bullet hit him between
the eyes, ending his life on impact. I whirled around to point the gun at
the detective that was hurrying to his nephew. I waited, silently, until he
approached the small figure that was lifelessly drowning is his own
spreading pool of blood. I took careful aim, and killed him as well. I,
then turned to look at the stunned Marduk. I whispered his name as I
dropped the gun. He just stood there, taking in the sight of Kenichi and
his uncle dead in a heap. I walked over to them, kicked scornfully at their
dead, yet still warm bodies, smirked and turned my attention back to Rock.
I ran to him, throwing my arms around his neck, crying. He said nothing,
clamped his hands onto my shoulders with the force of a vice, recorsidering
me as I knocked his glasses away. He lay his arms around me limply, as if
he were the one I had killed. The sound of an approaching car startled me,
and I jumped out of the warm embrace. Duke Red swiftly moved out of his
limousine to take me away again, but I kicked him in the shins and fled,
Rock at my heels. We ran together, to an empty house where he sat down on
the couch, taking me gently into his arms again. I cuddled to his chest,
saying nothing. He tightened his grip when his father swept past the door.
When he left, Rock started to laugh. I silenced him by placing my lips
carefully on his, so as not to injure him further; His lower lip had spilt
when the Duke slapped him. He pushed me away and picked me up, carrying me
into a bedroom. He lay me down and crawled in next to me. I pushed his
jacket off and started to work on getting his shirt off as he undressed me.
He kissed down my neck to my collarbone and sucked at it a little before
continuing his descent down to my breasts. " I never thought that one day,
I would make love to a robot." he whispered. "If you love me, does it
really matter?" I asked, stroking his hair. He said nothing, made no noise,
just continued to kiss me. I touched his shoulder lightly so as to draw him
back to me. He lifted his head and I captured his lips in mine, licking the
blood off his dry, cracked lips. He parted them to let my gently probing
tongue do as it pleased. I puled back when the need for oxygen was too
great to ignore. He mimbled something incoherantly as a protest for
breaking off our intimate kiss. I finally got his shirt off, immediatly
after which, he got mine off. He didn't lift my bra off at once, just
continued to kiss around them. I helped him undress completly and he helped
me do the same. We lay there, kissing for a long time before he finally
entered me. I moaned as he moved around inside me, holding me in place. He
started to move his hips as our heartbeats synchronized. I moaned even more
as I followed him into orgasm. It took a full five minutes for us to calm
down enough for him to pull out of me. I lifted his head and kissed him one
more time as we fell asleep in each other's arms.
