AN: Gomen for the lack of updates!!!! I had the HSPA testing XP yucky. Anyway, I have a few questions!

What's the name of Access and Finn's friends from the manga (the two angels, I forgot and I can't go online XP) And does someone love lil ol' me enough to tell me exactly what happened to them? (Again, I read what happened, and then I forgot that too ^-^;;) And also what was the name of Chiaki's father's assistant? The hot guy with the black hair? XD I could just watch the anime, but I don't feel like getting up and trying to find it ^-^

From now on, there might be references to the manga (some heavy, so there'll be spoilers) Personally, I like the manga better ^-^ But the anime is still good. Butchered but good….

~*^-^*~

Maron nodded slowly, keeping her face neutral. Chiaki's gaze was fixed on the floor and Miyako gaped at him. Maron stood, abruptly, and the chair legs scraped along the floor.

"I-I'm sorry, I'm a little tired." She laughed weakly and started walking towards the door. Miyako and Chiaki wordlessly followed.

"Maron…." Miyako started to say before Maron shook her head. The two exchanged a long solemn look before Maron closed the door.

"Maron?"

"F-Finn!? You scared me!" Maron giggled nervously, a hand resting over her heart. The angel hovered in front of her, her gaze sad. Maron was about to ask how she got in, but then she felt the breeze and saw the curtains billowing in the wind.

"Finn….What….What should I do?" Maron let out a choked sob and fell back against the door. Slowly, she let herself slide down until she was curled into a ball on the floor. Finn flew to her and wrapped her arms around Maron's neck. Maron let out another strangled sob and carefully held the angel.

"Maron." Finn sniffled and let a tear fall down her cheek, pain for her friend's suffering.

Chiaki stood on the other side of Maron's door, head bowed and hands clenched in fists. He closed his eyes when he heard Maron's strangled question followed by sobs.

"It was the only way…." He muttered, trying to convince himself that what he had done was right. Maron's sharp intake of breath followed by a sob made him think twice. He pressed a hand against the door and fought back tears.

"Maron….what have I done?"

~*^-^*~

Maron turned on her side, trying to get more comfortable. When her head hit wood instead of a pillow, she opened her eyes. Sunlight streamed through her window, playing patterns in front of her on the carpet. Carpet? She sat up slowly and looked around, rubbing her eyes. She was in the same place she was last night when Chiaki had left, curled up against the door. Sighing miserably, she stood and stepped over Finn, who was soundly sleeping on the floor, and made her way towards the couch.

Her stomach growled in protest but she ignored. When was the last time she ate? Thinking back, she hadn't eaten anything since before her plane left America, which was a good day before at least. And even then she was so excited to be coming back she only had a bottle of water and half a sandwich.

Maron brought her legs up to her chest and rested her chin on her knees. Her eyes were sticky with dried tears, clumping her eyelashes.

"Maron?" Finn yawned and floated drowsily over to the girl. Maron smiled weakly at the angel. Finn sat on Maron's shoulder and nuzzled her neck.

"It'll be okay, you'll see." She mumbled sleepily. Maron nodded absently, gently running a finger over Finn's wings.

"I'm gonna go for a walk." She stood, causing the angel to loose her balance and topple to the couch. Maron grabbed a clean pair of sweatpants and a shirt and quickly threw them on. She ran a brush quickly through her hair and pulled it into a ponytail.

"Maron, you're really okay?" Finn watched as Maron slid on ankle socks and sneakers. She nodded as she finished tying the shoe.

"Yea I….." She staggered forward, holding her head. Finn gasped and flew worriedly to her, hands searching for an unseen illness. Maron batted at her.

"I'm fine, really. Just a little dizzy. It'll pass." She smiled and left the angel alone in the room to ponder.

"Access! Access!" Finn pounded on the glass of Chiaki's room. A small angel her size with black wings appeared in the window, rubbing sleep from his eyes.

"Finn-chan!" He struggled, but was finally able to pull the window open a crack to let Finn in. After she had tumbled in, he hugged her, pulling her close to his chest. Finn distractedly batted his hands away.

"We need to get Chiaki up! He has to follow Maron!" She tugged urgently on his arm. Access blinked, confused.

"Maron? What's wrong?"

"She wasn't feeling good and she went out for a walk. I have a bad feeling." Finn flew through the house until she saw Chiaki sleeping soundly in his bed. She was glad that Yashiro hadn't moved in yet. It would cause too many problems.

"Chiaki! Chiaki!" Finn tried to shake him, but he only grunted and rolled over. She sighed, exasperated.

"Oi! Chiaki! Wake UP!" Access yelled in the sleeping man's ear. Chiaki's eyes shot open, startled, and he looked around wildly.

"You need to follow Maron! Hurry!" Finn clasped her hands in front of her in a pleading gesture.

"Follow Maron? Why? Where did she go?" He was already pushing himself out of bed as he talked.

"She went out for a walk, but she said she was dizzy. She almost fell! I'm afraid something bad is going to happen." Finn moved up next to Access and grabbed his hand. He was a little surprised at the abrupt gesture, but soothingly ran his thumb over the back of his hand.

"I'll go." Chiaki nodded and slid on his shoes. Finn sighed, relieved that he was willing to help. If anyone could help Maron right now, it was Chiaki.

"I'll bring her back." He said before he left the two angels alone. Access grinned slyly and pulled Finn against his chest.

"Now that that's taken care of…."

"Mou! Access!" She punched him playfully in the arm, glad for the light interruption. Silently, she prayed for Maron's safe return.

~*^-^*~

Maron leaned heavily against the tree, eyes closed, as her vision swam again. She groaned and angrily pounded her fist into the tree. She was such a fool to believe he would wait for her. Her eyes filled with tears and she sniffled.

Forcing herself to be strong, she started forward in a light jog. Almost immediately, a wave of nausea spread through her stomach. She stumbled forward and gasped when a pair of strong arms encircled her. She looked up, hope in her eyes.

"Chia-Noin!?"
