This chapter had to be very short for many reasons sorry it is though... It would be longer but when you get to the end you'll understand why it's so short. This chapter wasn't my favorite one to write at all in fact it took me at least a week just to type it because I hated what I did in it so much!

Chapter 8 Into The Darkness

Trigger was lying unconscious on the floor. He had been stripped of all reasoning, and any chance for an idyllic present, past, and/or future had faded away into a bleak and dismal reality. He wanted nothing more than to join her in everlasting sleep, nothing more then to forever leave his pain behind him and take off the forbidding shackles of life and go freely into a carefree world, so that he could live eternally in peace with his Belleza, forever to be together in eternal slumber. He felt the cold come upon him as a shadow in the night, eclipsing his appendages, up to his stomach, to his chest, and finally his heart. He wanted nothing besides her to be looking in his eyes with the same passion that she had many yesterdays ago. He wanted nothing besides her back in any way that it would be possible. He hadn't even had the heart to force himself to die. All the functions in every part of his body had stopped. He slipped into dream as he lay on the ice cold steel floor. His dreams were of his life, for it was flashing before him in quick succession. Each moment of rational thought passed through his eyes, ever moving, ever changing. His life, before his eyes, was only enhancing his passion for death to end his pain sharply and abruptly. All he could remember besides the past week was why he had fallen in love with her from the very beginning. Even though his body was asleep, his eyes started to water as the images in his mind became more and more real and more and more painful each time he had seen her laugh, each time he saw her happy and content with the world around her, each time she was just being herself and loving life. Life had begun so joyously and now he had seen his love killed brutally by none other then Dr. Hamsterviel. That thought repeated cruelly in his head as his body filled with hatred, hatred for a very unlucky gerbil. (Hamster that's HAMSTER!!!! (Fine then hamster but still very unlucky!)) Trigger lay on the floor well knowing what his future was to be... He was to avenge Belleza's death by killing the very small and/or tiny Dr. Hamsterviel...

He slowly opened his eyes as he woke up from his deep sleep. He saw a beautiful purple woman kneeling over him with her face in her hands.

"Belleza? BELLEZA?" Trigger coughed. Belleza looked at him and franticly wrapped her arms around him. Trigger was alleviated from the immense pain he had felt only moments before, but his mind had something different in store for him and Belleza. His mind had labeled her, as dead and he knew for a fact that the dead could not come back to life. Even though she was hugging him so strongly, he again fell into the darkness. "No...no... you can't be Belleza! She's dead!!!" Trigger said as he slipped further and further into the darkness that swept him away not soon to come back.

"Trigger what are you saying? I am Belleza! I am... I AM! Whats wrong? Can't you see that you are my love and I yours?" Belleza managed to get out in between tears and sniffles. She slowly laid her hands over her stomach. Trigger crawled away from her by pushing on the floor with his hands.

"NO! NO!!! YOU CAN'T BE HER SHE'S DEAD I CAN SEE HER RIGHT NOW DEAD ON THE FLOOR!!!!" Trigger yelled at Belleza pointing to the dead body of 237 that still lay cold and forbidding on the floor, "Besides you don't even look like her!! Your way to fat to be her!!!" Trigger yelled standing up. He walked to her and stood just inches about her face.

"Trigger look at me I am alive what would ever make you believe that I, Belleza, was killed by Hamsterviel? The person who needs me almost as much as you do." Belleza cried in a flood of tears into her hands. All the hate that had accumulated in Trigger grabbed hold of him in a hellish blaze and forced him to rein fire and brimstone on Belleza and Trigger's love for one another. Trigger was full of hate for her expressing it in ways no mortal eyes have ever seen or will see again.

"No she is dead..." Trigger forced his hand into a fist that was gripped so tight his arm started shaking. "...And you are nothing more than a pathetic excuse for a genetic copy!!!" He punched her hard in the face. She fell to the floor as she cried holding her head in her hands.

"Trigger!? Why must it be this way? Why must it end in pain? Why must you spit on our love?" Belleza asked in a struggle to keep from crying herself to an early death. She got back to her feet and ran to the kitchen as swiftly as she could.

"No you are a copy! A copy that must die!" Trigger yelled running after her. Belleza tripped and fell landing her on her stomach on the floor of the kitchen. Trigger walked in ominously grabbing a knife. Belleza tried to move again but she couldn't move even if her life depended on it. (And it did). Trigger walked to her and placed his hand on her neck to hold her up above him as he placed the knife to her stomach. "You are a fake of the purist thing in the universe and as of such you must die before you cause any more pain in this world!" Trigger yelled. Even though Trigger had said all of this, he knew that to kill her would truly kill him inside.

Trigger tightened his muscles in preparation to thrust the knife into Belleza killing their baby Kamea. The ship suddenly was jolted by a blast at the hull by something that came completely out of nowhere. The knife jabbed upwards into Belleza's chest, sharply going all the way through her. Air was franticly escaping the aircraft pulling and sucking anything it could get a hold of. Trigger grabbed the floor for anything that he could hold on to. That was securely fastened to the floor. Unfortunately he found nothing to hold on to and flew swiftly out the hole in the ship that was made earlier.

"Trigger!" Belleza yelled jumping after him. Trigger moved motionless in space as Belleza moved ever closer. Belleza could only think about her love for him as she had already forgiven him for the knife in her chest. Her breath became short as she caught his foot and pulled him to her. She looked into his eyes as he looked in hers. She cried tears that would never be seen by Trigger's eyes, for it was her heart that was crying. She held him close never letting for of him. She wouldn't be able to take the pain of losing him again. She would never let go of the one she loved; she would never let go... never. She kissed his lips and Trigger was immediately swept away into another world. Their breaths became shorter and eventually their breaths didn't come at all. Belleza never had the chance to tell Trigger of their unborn child to be name Kamea.
