What They Couldn't See

A/N: A Xenosaga fic, my first to be exact. As known, there are so many questions left unanswered in Xenosaga, so you can't really complain if the idea seemed kinda farfetched. Besides, it's just a fanfic. Anywasy, I hope people will enjoy, much feedback needed for a sucky writer(that's me :D)'s improvement. I just played the game, so there might be some inaccuracies.

Disclaimer: I don't own nadda from the game, i write cuz i have no life :P.

She bent down by the broken body on the ground. With much effort, held the limp hand gently, and felt the slightest tremble. "Why?" She whispered, it came out more like a whimper, tears srung from her eyes as the hand she held reached up to touch her cheek.

"Daddy...." The small voice so much like her's managed to say. "He loved you so much.... He never looked at us...... You were always more special......."

She shook her head, hardly believeing what she heard, not wanting to believe. "No! That's not true! We're all suppose to be the same." Stood lifted her head, saw the battle that was oblivious to her moments ago, lost in her own pains. She saw the one person in the world that showed her more kindness than ever needed to, fighting for her, but also his own dignity. "Jr...." She wanted him to stop, but knew he couldn't ignore the taunts of her crazed tormentor, killer of her sisters. The very thought angered her so.....

"MOMO...." Tiny voice, so small....

Hand to her cheek, her tears flowing. "Tell me please.... what did you see in him? Why do you follow him? After all he has done to hurt you?"

The Kirschwasser didn't answer, instead, showed her memeories and final thoughts.

What you saw in....... Jr........ was almost ......the same........

"Come my precious Kirschwassers. Have you not lived in shadows long enough? You all deserve more than what your foolish father gave. I can give you that! You mean more to me than he ever could feel!"

To be needed........ to deserve more......... to be like....... you.

He stood, eyes shone with deadly madnesss, one by one he struck them when he felt the need to, one by one they fell, fueled by his own madness and insanity. They may be Realian, but not invincible.... Yet they obeyed and followed him still.... Simply because, they had nowhere else to go.........

Then all was gone, those horrible images. The hand went completely limp, cold ever so fast......

Even until the very end, MOMO still couldn't understand why. They gave their trust, hopes and dreams of becoming real..... To a horror that wasn't real himself. She couldn't see how they lacked the love her father gave her, the care. The kindness and support of her new found friends. And, the sense of belonging from, him........

She couldn't understand.... and probably would never ever see. They succumbed to false promises, because that was all they needed, all they ever got, so it was enough, just to follow that dream.......... Even if it never comes true.
