DISCLAIMER: don't own anything in here, except for the really twisted ending. It having been so long since I played the game I have thought up a better ending, so if it doesn't go along with it please don't hurt me. HOORAY! The last chapter. Oh yeah! I owe someone a story, but for the life of me I can't remember who it was, so If it's you could you e-mail me please?

And Yes, I skipped the whole confrontation thing because I stink at writing fight scenes.

"speech"

'thoughts'

(Edit: yeah you get it.)

Homunculus, again, felt torn, he didn't want to leave Eike, not after the American had nearly gotten killed by a mentally unstable child. He was, of course, grateful that the balding library caretaker had stepped in, but . . .

"I, have a bad feeling." He bit his lip as the blonde laughed bitterly.

"Come on! I just managed to go an entire day avoiding being murdered. What could possibly go wrong now?"

"Please Eike, go straight home . . ." The American waved a hand airily,

"Yeah, right, whatever." The inhabitant of the Philosophers stone opened it's mouth to begin another plea, then decided against it.

"I love you, Eike."

Eike blinked, a mistake, because between one second and the next Homunculus was gone. The blonde sank to the ground and stared up at the velvet black sky and decided to put Homunculus's last comment down as wishful thinking.

"Phew . . . what a day." The stars twinkled back in agreement, and Eike chuckled softly.

"And to think, I'm probably the only person in the world, who understands just how precious life is . . ." The American lay down soaking up the warmth from the sun-warmed cobbles. There was the sound of a car, coming in fast, the blonde didn't have time to do anything more then twitch.

Homunculus's head shot up as Eike's soul began to slip away yet again.

"No!" the seraphim cried, drawing odd looks from the other people on the almost deserted street. Bracing himself he threw out his power and wrapped it around the light that was the blonde's essence. Once the connection was established the soul went to the place most familiar to it, dragging the body along with it. The man made creation fell to his knees wincing,

"Damn this body!" he growled before disappearing himself. Far away a soft voice murmured, already done, my lovely minion, already done.

Eike groaned and opened his eyes to all to familiar surroundings.

"Noooo . . ." The books rustled and rearranged themselves, the scenery outside the window inverted itself, and the clock held still. The blonde slowly became aware of the presence next to him, a black clad arm thrown protectively over his chest, soft breaths tickling his neck, and an extremely heavy leg, entwined with his own. After many muffled gasps and painful twinges, Eike had managed to sit up. He stared down at the bandages on his chest and legs, trying remember what had happened.

Homunculus's eyes shot open as the body next to him tried to stand.

"No you don't." He declared, pushing the mortal back down onto the floor. Eike winced as his rear landed on the floor with a thud. Turning his attention to the man . . . person . . . Thing, next to him he asked,

"What am I doing here?" The black haired seraphim bit his lip.

"You got run over by a car. . ." The blonde clenched his teeth,

"I know why I'm DEAD but why am I HERE?" The answer was an intelligible mumble. The put upon man pinched the bridge of his nose,

"I couldn't hear that."

"Because I didn't want you dead!" The shorter male stood and strode over to a pile of books that held unnaturally still.

Eike was tired of beating around the bush, tired of being killed and resurrected without cause.

"What do you WANT from me! I'm of NO further use to you! Why won't you let me rest!" Homunculus's shoulders slumped at this outburst, but then he stiffened, determined to let the Human know his mind.

"Because I'm selfish. I love you and I won't let ANYONE, not even DEATH take you!" At the Last few words he pivoted and the mortal was taken aback by the fire and passion in the normally cold beings maroon eyes. Eike's surprise changed slowly into elation.

"Then why didn't you just say so from the beginning?" It was the demon's turn to be surprised as the human opened his arms.

"I love you as well, But," Homunculus became cautious.

"I demand an apology for what you put me through." The blonde's face became stern.

The black clad creation knew it was a just request, and the fact that it would be witnessed by no other creature smoothed his ruffled ego. His strange footsteps echoed in the near silence.

Thump click,

thump click,

thump click.

There was the slight rustle of cloth as he knelt before the man he had worked so hard to save.

"I have mistreated you badly. And put you in all types of peril. Can you ever forgive me for my mistakes?" Eike smiled softly.

"Of course."
