Merry Christmas! THIS IS THE END... FINALLY.

Xiaoyu woke up to a cold rag on her forehead and a frantic Miharu. "What's going on? What happened?" she asked.

"Well, you kind of fainted." Miharu looked around nervously.

Xiaoyu glanced back at the tv screen to find that Jin was still on it. Her eyebrows furrowed

and she sat up.

"You ok Xiao?" Miharu placed her hand on Xiaoyu's shoulder. She had to admit that she was worried about her troubled friend.

"I'm fine Mi, why wouldn't I be?" Xiaoyu was looking at the floor so that her bangs covered her eyes. She was furiously trying to fight away the tears underneath and Miharu obviously knew that.

"You are not fine. You haven't been fine for a long time." Miharu hugged her friend. "But if you want to keep it inside then I won't force you." Miharu did her best to comfort her.

"There's only one resolution Mi." Miharu was surprised at how mature she was being. Normally she would've ran upstairs to their bedroom and cried her eyes out for days.

"What?" Miharu asked quickly.

"I have to confront him. I just need closure and then I can move on with my life." Xiaoyu gave her friend a melancholic smile and a soft nod was received.

"I will drive you. Remember Xiao, whenever you need me, I'm there." she kissed the top of her friend's forehead. "You are like my sister, I want you to know that I would do anything for you." Xiaoyu nodded.

"Then we'll go tonight. He should be in his office and I'll go. Thank you Miharu, for everything."

"Go get cleaned up then. We want to wipe it all in this bastard's face." Miharu succeeded in getting a small smile to come through Xiaoyu's tears and it was enough for her as she watched Xiaoyu jet up the stairs.

After about two hours Xiaoyu's primping was finished. When she came down the stairs Miharu couldn't help but smile. Her friend looked beautiful. Xiaoyu was wearing makeup, for the first time in over 4 months, she also took the time to do her hair instead of letting it just be in a pony tail. Her hair had grown quite long by now and it was now to the middle of her back. Xiaoyu had applied lavender eye shadow, a dab of black liner, and sheer pink gloss. Her outfit was even more out of the ordinary. She was wearing a small mini skirt, a revealing halter top, and 3 inch platform heels. Xiaoyu walked down the stairs with a sad smile as she approached her friend.

"Are you sure that you want to do this? Are you ready?" Miharu made sure that her friend was positive.

"I have to." Miharu extended her arm out for Xiaoyu and she gladly took it.

In 20 minutes Miharu pulled up her red nissan in front of the Mishima Zaibatsu, now officially called Kazama Corp.

"Remember Xiao if anything goes wrong then I'm right here or if you change your mind then I've got this baby prepared to peel out." Xiaoyu nodded and mouthed a thanks before stepping out and walking up the many stairs.

She walked up to the door and pushed the buzzer. "Sorry Miss, we are not open at these hours."

"No but you don't understand, I have to see Jin."

"No, you don't understand, no exceptions and his name is Mr. Kazama." said the rude secretary, putting extra emphasis on his title.

"Look lady, I need to see him and I'm coming up whether you like it or not."

"Security!" the lady yelled over the intercom.

"No, let her up." the secretary was overruled by Jin Kazama himself.

The door slightly buzzed and then opened. Xiaoyu reluctantly walked in, she took one last glance at Miharu as she sat in the car before letting the door close behind her. There was a woman waiting for her, no doubt that rude secretary.

"Follow me miss?"

"Ling, Ling Xiaoyu." all of the people in the area turned to look at her when she said her name. This surprised her, how could they know about her?

The woman led her to the elevator, up to the 20th floor. The doors opened and the woman motioned for Xiaoyu to get out, she did so and the doors closed quickly behind her. Leaving her alone in a strangely dark office. She could feel her heart beating faster and faster with each second. She felt breath on her neck as two strong arms engulfed her. With much hesitation, she turned around and pushed him off.

"What's the problem?" Xiaoyu stumbled around in the dark until she fell over what she was guessing was a couch.

"What do you mean 'what's the problem'?" she furiously mocked him. "I haven't seen you for six months straight and what you thought everything would be perfect?" He walked over to her, she couldn't see him in the darkness, only the sound of his footsteps.

Soon he was hovering over her and she tried to push him back but he wouldn't budge. He leaned down to kiss her and at first she responded but then pushed him off. "I came here to do two things."

"And what is that?" he asked impatiently.

"I needed to closure because it's over."

"No, its just beginning..." he moved closer to her.

"Stop!" she yelled and blindly stood up. "I need to tell you something, it's important. And then I'm leaving." she swatted around her just in case he was near her.

"Okay..." he sounded like he was on the other side of the room. But it was impossible, he was just next to her.

"There was a baby Jin..." she trailed off.

"What?" he was astonished, "well where is he?" his voice became excited.

"No, you don't understand. During the tournament it..." she trailed off as she choked on her words. She felt hot tears streak her face and prayed that he didn't know that she was crying.

"What!" he was enraged, "you bitch, you lost my child!" he came rushing at her.

Xiaoyu tried to run from him, but it was useless. She grabbed her cell phone and was about to call Miharu when the glow from it revealed him standing right in front of her. He grabbed it out of her hand and she gulped loudly. He kept walking toward her, she proceeded to back up.

"You're shaking..." he mocked her.

"Stop..." he ignored her.

"It's ok, we'll just have to make another one." he backed her up against the desk. Horror crossed her features. She knew what he was going to try to do.

"I can't."

"I think we can." he smirked. "Very easily in fact." she was now sitting on his desk. He reached over to turn on a small lamp. She instantly saw his eyes, they glowed red and she knew that he was gone. Jin Kazama was lost to the world now and there was nothing that she could do about it.

"I can't have children..." she whispered. "and I would never succumb to you." she spat.

"Oh yeah?" he began to get angry and aggressive and he pulled her to him. He began to kiss her but she smacked him on the face.

"Stop it!" she yelled as she struggled with him. He pulled at her shirt and she cried against him. "I hate you! Stop!" he stopped and looked her in the face.

"You hate me? You fucking hate me!" he grabbed her throat and squeezed tightly as he shook her back and forth. She coughed and her face turned red. Tears came to her eyes and she gripped his hands tightly. She dug her nails into him until he bled. He smiled at this.

"Come on, fight me Xiao! Fight it!" he taunted her and continued to shake her. Suddenly, he heard a snap and her grip on his hands loosened. The red in his eyes disappeared and all that was left now was Jin Kazama. "Xiao?" she fell limp in his arms. "XIAO!" her head slumped to the side.

She was gone.She was dead. He had disposed of the only good thing on his life. He had murdered her with his bare hands.He had snapped her neck, it was broken. He had emotionally broken her the moment he'd met her and now physically. He pulled her lifeless body against him.

"Xiao please no! I'm sorry I'm so sorry..." he yelled against her stomach. "It wasn't me! I would never do this to you." he spoke to her even though he knew that she was gone. He held her to him as he rocked back and forth. "All I ever wanted was you..."

Epilogue:

After that day, Jin Kazama was never the same. He had built a memorial in her honor right next to his mother's and visited it each day. He no longer had any problems with the devil gene. He'd found a cure the day after he'd killed her. If only he could've found it a day sooner, then everything would be okay and she would still be with him. Miharu never forgave him what he'd done and she'd partially blamed herself for letting Xiao go alone. He'd eventually married a woman, but he didn't love her half as much as he'd loved Xiao and he never would. They would never have any children, because Jin felt that since he'd taken away Xiao's life that he shouldn't have one either. His wife would often question him about where he was going when he would visit her grave and he would say that he was going out on business. He would never forget her, his angel, Ling Xiaoyu.

A/N: all done!
