"I made this for you." said Tails, self-consciously, handing her a box.
It was a few weeks after the death of Bancrek. The items that Alana, Zoi and Lucifer had been forced to wear had come loose, triggered by the killing of the worm. They hadn't wanted them, with good reason. They gave them to Knuckles to destroy, but neither he nor Bunnie could do it, so they decided to bury them, as deep as they could, with a warning scratched into them.
"What is it?" Alana asked, looking at him.
"Open it and see!" said Tails obviously.
She did, and inside was a gold headband.
"I made it to act looked like your old one, " he said looking at the ground and examining his shoes. "With one difference: It won't control you, but you'll control it."
He was met with silence, and when he looked up, he saw her smiling, lost for words. She put it on, and it sparkled in the sunlight.
"You look as beautiful as ever." he said, stroking her cheek with the back of his fingers.
She stood up and hugged him, tears in her eyes, but still smiling.
"(Thank you...)" she whispered.
"(Love you)." he said.
"(Love you too)." she replied, her tears now gone.
She pulled away a little.
"(But y' know what?)" She whispered in his ear, smirking. "(I bet I get to the practice range before you with this on.)"
She then pushed him away, laughing, running to the range.
"Oh yeah?" yelled Tails, running after her, laughing also.
They chased each other, laughing all the while.
Zoi sat on the front step of her new house, looking at them sadly, now wearing the same trousers, but a bage T-shirt and sandals borrowed from the various girls in Knothole, her leg in a cast from where Bunnie had kicked it.
"Lucky girl..." she sighed, leaning on her elbows as Tails tackled her.
"He-llo."
She turned to see Lucifer next to her, smiling, his arm in a sling. She frowned and looked away.
"But there's no use discussing my feelings with you though," she murmured angrily, half-talking to him. "As you said, 'you aren't interested, we aren't a couple,-'"
He knelt down and kissed her on the cheek.
"'This isn't a time to get intimate.'" she said, oblivious to his action. "'Thi-'" She stopped, her expression set to ' O.O '. She touched her fingers to the spot of the kiss. She looked around to him, a disbelieving look on her face. He smiled at her, eyebrow raised.
"As I said." he smiled, sitting next to her. "I wasn't interested, we weren't a couple and that wasn't the time to get intimate." He smiled, inches away from her face. "But now, it's different-" he leant forward and kissed her properly. She closed her eyes, getting what she had always wanted. After a minute, he pulled back and said "-'Heros'..."
She gaped at him, smiling. "I didn't know you spoke Egyptian!"
He smile grew wider. "You never asked..."
She playfully hit him. He grabbed her arms and put them around his neck.
"('Nat gehiyal'...)" he whispered, gazing into her eyes.
"(Now it's your turn...)" she translated to herself, moving closer...
The End.
