Disclaimer: I don't own Wa3. I bet you didn't see that one coming!

Luna: OKay, warning this chapter is VERY depressing....at least in my view. Anyway, last chapter I spelt Kaityln's name with a "K" because i wasn't sure if was that or "Catilin". So I'm going to keep spelling it with a "K" because I'm really not sure...

Gyshai: Wow....your CONFUSING! Anyway READ & REVIEW!

Chapter3: Frantic

The halls of the Ark of Destiny was unusually dead silent. Clive ran off ahead with extreme speed.

" It's too quiet," remarked Jet, " I don't like it."

"Yeah..." said Virginia, scanning the area, " I just hope she's okay...."

Then, 3 Ark of Destiny members came from the other side of the hall, carrying automatic weapons. They had a blank look in their eyes, as if in a trance. Virginia already had her pistols out, as did Jet and Clive.

" What have you done to my daughter?" shouted Clive.

" She'll make a fine vessel for the Saint," said one Ark member in a monotone voice.

" Yeah, well your Saint is the one that killed your leader!" snapped Virginia.

" Don't even bother," whispered Jet, " They're beyond reasoning."

" Clive," whispered Virginia, " Go. We'll hold them off."

Clive obliged, and the shots rang out. Virginia and Jet took each one out with ease.

She used her Dark Matter Arcana, and Jet followed up by plugging them with bullets from his ARM.

" Too easy!" said Virginia, and without a seconds thought, she turned around to go down the hall.

She didn't notice the Ark of Destiny members creep up behind them. She didn't hear them walk towards them, stealthy. Only Jet did.

But then Virginia heard the shots of automatic weapons. She turned around, waiting for the pain that would follow but she didn't feel it. She never felt the bullets hit her body because Jet had thrown himself against her. Virginia realized in a panic what he was doing. He was shielding her from the bullets. With his own body.

Jet collasped in a heap at her feet and Virginia let out a wail. She knelt down and held him.

" No!" cried Virginia, tears stinging her eyes, " Jet, why? WHY?"

" Vir...ginia..." he wheezed, struggling to breathe, " You....have to...stop them.......save....Kaityln..."

" Jet, stop!" said Virginia, cradling him, " We'll stop them! Together! You're not dying on me, you hear? YOUR NOT DYING ON ME!!"

Jet smiled against the pain and said, "....always...looking...on the bright side....Ginny....I'm glad I met you..."

Virginia searched her pack for Mega Berries, Heal Berries anything that could help her. But she knew it was futile. All the healing items she had couldn't save him. He's wounds were mortal.

" No! No!" cried Virginia, " You can't die! I love you! Please...hang on!"

Jet reached out a hand and touched her cheek, " I ...love...you...now go get 'em...."

And with those final words, he was gone.

Luna: I know , short Chapter. Very short and depressing....but I promise it gets better. Next Chapter: Numb.
