Chapter Seven- Die My Beloved

Suichi and Piero were sitting on the benches watching Ulrich and Odd playing ball with some of the other kids there. Not once had they gotten up to join. 'Children's Games" were not their kind of fun. Besides the kids had not even noticed their absence. It felt as if they were baby-sitting them.

"Thank God, it's almost lunch time!" said Piero annoyed and bored.

"Yes, the tension is killing me," answered Suichi.

"But I get to shoot anyone right?" asked Piero.

"Yes! I told you already. They both get shot then we dump the bodies over the bridge. How hard is that to fucking remember?" said Suichi exasperated at Piero's lack of memory.

"Goddamn! I'm sorry, but the way you explain things confuses me!"

"Shut the fuck up, idiot."

"NO you shut the fuck up!"

"Why do you act so childish?" asked Suichi staring at the older boy next to him.

"I don't know," he said honestly. The only times he acted his age was with girls.

"I know. It's 'cause you're a retarded creation," said Suichi rolling his eyes at the boy with model looks.

"Do not call me a creation, Suichi. Or should I say X.A.N.A? 'Cause you're a creation too!"

"Yumi!" said Shyla panting. Finally she had found Yumi reading a book on a bench out in front of her house

"What's wrong Shyla?" asked Yumi concerned.

"Odd and … Ulrich are in trouble."

"What?"

She handed the notebook to Yumi, so she could read for herself.

"I helped Xana materialize himself, but I didn't know he would be like he is!" she said desperately! "We don't have time to talk now! We need to hurry and save them!"

"But this is Suichi's notebook!" said Yumi confused.

"Who the hell do you think X.A.N.A is?" asked Shyla pulling Yumi up as her eyes widened in realization.

The two girls began running. Yumi threw her book on the ground and Shyla held fast to her backpack. As heavy as it was she would not leave it behind. The remainder of the jewels that had been stolen was in there. If she was going to fix one mess she might as well fix all of them.

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

Suichi and Piero walked behind Ulrich and Odd. Piero took out the gun from his backpack and handed it over to Suichi. They smiled wickedly at each other. They were nearly at the bridge crossing, which was- to their luck- empty. Suichi placed the gun inside his shirt since it conveniently had a pocket.

They reached the bridge when Odd asked them what they would get for lunch. They were not sure.

Suddenly they both halted, while Odd and Ulrich kept walking not knowing. Suichi aimed the gun at Odd first, and shot. Shyla jumped in the way making the bullet blast through his shoulder, instead of his chest. 'Made it just in time,' she thought to herself as she grinded her teeth from the pain on her foot. Odd had landed on top of her.

"Damn IT!" yelled Suichi running with the gun toward her and the three friends, who were stunned at what had just happened. Shyla was getting Odd up in spite of the pain, but holding his hand. Suichi stared at her completely pissed off. He was man enough not to hit her, so he directed his anger toward the others. He aimed at Odd, the being he hated the most, but Shyla knocked the gun upwards making the bullet shoot up to the sky.

"BITCH!" Suichi could not control himself any longer and hit her across the face. She fell on the floor nearly bleeding. He started punching Ulrich. Yumi kicked him from the back, but having no effect at all.

Meantime, Odd was fighting with Piero. Piero kept smacking his face as if he was a punching bag. At the rate he was getting hit, he wouldn't have a face soon. Odd managed to kick him to the ground and land a punch on his stomach. And just in time Shyla hit Piero over the head with the gun, knocking him out. The back of his head started to get wet with blood that ran quicker by the second. Suddenly his body started becoming light, which quickly disappeared into the air. There was nothing left of the good-looking boy.

Shyla and Odd did not even stop to think about what just had happened. Yumi and Ulrich were being thrown around like rag dolls by Suichi. They need to be helped badly. Shyla aimed the gun at Suichi.

"Stop or I'll shoot you!" she said trembling.

"Go ahead and do it! I dare you!" he answered her by walking toward Odd and her. She pulled the trigger but nothing happened. "Actually the gun only had two bullets, you idiot! I didn't think you would come to stop me!" He punched Odd unconscious on the ground.

"I loved you and yet I hated you, Shyla!"

"Well then don't hurt me!" she said as he tried to kick her face.

"But I want to, now!" Shyla tried to kick Suichi, but he bent his back dodging her kick. Shyla let her foot fall down hard to hit him on the front of his body. He reacted by putting right hand on top of his left, making an X. Shyla's foot landed in the center and he pushed it upwardly with all his strength making her spin in the air.

She landed perfectly on her feet.

"All those years of gymnastics finally paid off, I see," said Suichi smiling at how good her fighting skills were.

"Guess so," she said smiling. She tried to punch him, but he slapped her hand to the side, and gave a hard kick to her stomach. She backed a few feet away from him, gasping for air. She quickly regained her posture, showing no sign of pain. Suichi ran at her, pulling at her backpack as she tried to spin around to get away from him. All the jewels fell out on the dirty ground.

"Trying to take my stuff?" he asked as he looked at his stolen possessions.

"Yeah! They're stolen. I was stealing them to return them!"

"Shyla, never try to con a con man!"

She gave a high kick at the same time as Suichi, their feet landing against each other. They kept pushing at their feet trying to make each other fall to the ground. Then Shyla jump with her other foot and kicked Suichi in the face with her high heel. She landed on the ground faced down, and so did Suichi.

He got up bleeding from his left cheek. He kicked Shyla back to the ground. Lifting his foot up high, attempting to try and break her back, then dropping it down failing. She rolled over to her back then pounced up.

Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi had all regained consciousness. Shyla, meanwhile, was punching Suichi senseless. She had trained for the day they would kill each other like this long and hard. They were both bleeding baldly from their faces. Suichi finally manage to break free and back away.

He reached into his pocket and got a small control out.

"Shyla I will kill whoever is infected! So stay were you fucking are!" yelled Suichi defeated.

"You fag! You turn to this because you're losing!"

"Damn right. And I don't want to kill you!"

"What is going on Shyla?" the three friends asked at the same time.

"One of you is infected with some virus!" she answered with her back turned

Shyla turned to face Odd. She mouthed the words 'I'm sorry'. She turned back and tried to kick the control out of Suichi's hand, succeeding. The control landed far apart from all of them. They all ran towards it. Every one got their hands on it, but Yumi accidentally pressed the button.

Ulrich began to scream as blood began to pour out of his mouth. The thick, dark liquid poured out of his eyes, ears, nose, and the rest of his orifices. They knew this because he had been wearing shorts, and it was trickling down his legs. His screams of agony seemed to fill the world over. Yumi's insane cries and yells were no help either.

Shyla shook her head as she looked over at Odd who stood stalk-still staring at his dying friend. A tear dropped from her eye as she ran for Suichi who was standing over the edge of the bridge. She pushed him off.

"If I'm going down so are you," he screamed at her, grabbing her shirt. They both fell off the twenty-three foot high bridge yelling.
