Alone
Ray stood behind the bar, he didn't really mind this job, it didn't pay as well as an assassin, but it paid enough to support him, Mariah and his growing son. He was cleaning a glass, it was quite quiet in here tonight, he glanced over to the corner of the room. There he was, like he always was these days, Ray shook his head, Kai's life had really gone down hill. His building had been completely destroyed, even though the fire engines had arrived quickly, it was still beyond any kind of help they could have offered.
Kai sat looking at the gun on the table in front of him, a martini in his hand, like he did every night, and just like every night, he so nearly picked up the weapon, put it to his temple and fired. But he always stopped himself, he didn't know why. It wasn't as if he had much to live for.
He had never found her body, he had searched tirelessly for hours and hours after the fire burnt out, he had picked through every piece of rubble which was all that was left of his glorious SubRitz. There was no sign of her.
He could have rebuilt it, he had the money, after all he was a multi billionaire, but he didn't. Ray had eventually come for him and dragged him away from the remains, for a few months he had shared Ray's apartment with his family, but that only made it worse, watching the two of them raise their 4 month old son Rhydan.
He should be living with his family, in the SubRitz. He should be holding Aruna every night as she grew heavier and heavier with his children, twins, a boy and a girl. So when he couldn't take seeing Mariah every day with her son he moved out and rent out a place which he found out had been Aruna's own apartment.
He sipped his martini, he came here every night, frittering away his money on alcohol, he never even bothered to look at women, he knew there would be no one as worthy as Aruna was to be his wife. He sighed and looked up, he saw Ray staring at him from behind the bar with concern in his eyes. He snarled and stood up, he didn't need pity he had chosen this way of life for himself now, if he had wanted he could be living the high life again. He stalked out of the bar and went out onto the streets. He was no longer the desirable, rich, and important Mafia leader, he was just a normal guy who had fallen from his perch and landed in the gutter with all the other failures.

No matter how long she stared at them, she never got tired of looking at the stars, they were so beautiful. The woman sat on a bench in the park ignoring the chill night air of Zone 1 that nipped at her skin, causing her to come up in goose pimples.
She had only been on Zone 1 a few months. When she had crawled, injured and pain ridden from one of the gate ways down to Zone 2 she had collapsed in agony and lain in the street till someone had found her and called an ambulance.
She had been swiftly rushed into hospital where she had stayed for five weeks. When she finally came out it was with a heavy heart, the doctors had told her that her babies were dead and would be born still. She had cried for hours, closing off her mind from her bitbeast, not wanting to hear whatever it had to say.
When she had finally allowed him to talk to her, he had told her that only one of her children was dead, but one tiny heart still beat, Scarlath couldn't tell if it was the boy or the girl, but he knew there was one still alive.
She sighed at closed her eyes, resting her hand on her stomach, at least she would have something to remember him by.
She knew she could go back, she knew that he would welcome her, and every day she was away from him was a blow to her heart. But after everything she had done, loved him, slept with him, tried to kill him, destroyed the SubRitz , she couldn't go back. The guilt had faded, when she had come out of the hospital she realised what a fool she had been, he had forgiven her, she was so stupid, she could still be living with him, sitting within his warm embrace, arguing over babies names.
True. She could go back, but she doubted he would even recognise her now.
She opened her eyes as she heard footsteps, a man was walking into the park, he was young and quite handsome, not a patch on him though. He caught sight of Aruna, sitting alone on the bench. He could only see the half of her which was facing him, and that was beautiful enough, so he decided to try his luck.
The young man came and sat down beside her.
"Hey beautiful, need some company ?" He said.
She didn't turn to face him, she merely said.
"Go away."
"Oh, cummon, no one likes to be alone." He said, moving a little closer to her.
It was then, she turned to face him, the moonlight illuminating her whole face, the man couldn't help it, he gasped and his mouth fell open. The whole right hand side of her face was a mess of scars, but under the quivering starlight, the marks left by hideous burns and blisters seemed alive and her flesh seemed to boil and churn over her bones. Pits ran like ditches over the once smooth surface of her flesh, imprinted onto her for the rest of her life.
It wasn't just her face, it was the whole right hand side of her body, the slender arm, the shapely leg, they were now twisted and gruesome. He inched away. She must have been a beautiful creature once, but now, now she was only a shadow. A Shadow of what she once was.
"I am alone." She said.
Wild-Roze : Well, that was short. Hands up if u want a sequel !!!! But... I first have to think up the plot for the sequel, but the chances are it will be crap, but cast yer votes anyway, and I'm gonna leave u guessing weather the baby is a boy or a gal. I'm making no promises tho, I might decide not to write a sequel at all, I'll post another chap telling you if I will or not, so feel free to flame me if you want more and you get disappointed , okay ? Well, I'd like to say thankyou to everyone who reviewed, I was hoping to get over 100 reviews for this fic, who knows, after this chapter I might, I hope so anyway.
