Killa Pat: Sorry about the long wait. I just got back from a weekened of camping and lemme tell you, it's good to be back. Enjoy the chapter.


Chapter Three

Lust walked through the rainy streets of Central. The cold drops of water touched her soft pale skin has she made her way aimlessly through the streets. Lust didn't mind the cold. "It's hard to mind when you can't feel", she thought to herself.

Lust turned into a familiar alley that had a door at the end of it. Lust walked up to the door and opened it, not bothering to knock. The smell of cigarette smoke filled the air and Lust looked in disgust at the men gathered here. They all stole one quick glance at her and then went back to their drinks. They knew what would happen if they didn't.

The bartender didn't bother talking to Lust, he just started serving her drinks, which Lust drank. Lust downed another and another glass of beer, annoyed by the fact that she couldn't feel the slightest buzz. After her eighth drink Lust got up to leave, not bothering to pay.

On her way out Lust thought she saw a familiar face among the patrons, but shook it off. "No, he wouldn't be in a place like this", Lust thought to herself has she walked out the back door.

"Funny, I didn't expect to find you in there", an all too familiar voice said from behind her.

"I could say the same for you. Scar.", Lust said turning around.

It was still raining hard outside, but Lust could see Scar clearly through the pouring rain.

"Don't you find it funny, how our paths seem to always cross?", Lust said to him.

"I no longer find much of anything funny, homunculus".

Lust half smiled tucked a wet strand of hair behind her ear.

"Would you like to know what I really find funny?", Lust said seductively, taking a step towards Scar.

"I haven't the time for your games Lust", Scar said firmly.

"He called me by my name for once", Lust mused. Lust couldn't help but notice how Scars eyes followed her body's every movement. How the droplets of rain slid down her breasts, the curves of her body, her lips, everything that made her beautiful, he paid attention to.

"You mean you don't have the time for me?", Lust asked, pretending to sound hurt in a seductive way, gaining Scars attention even more.

Lust took another step towards Scar, swaying her hips has she did so. They were know close enough that Lust could feel his breath on her skin. Behind Scars emotionless face, Lust could see past his mask and into his eyes. And suddenly, Lust felt she couldn't move.

"Didn't think I'd use this did you?", Scar said holding up the locket.

"Go…ahead then…kill me", Lust managed to squeeze out.

Scar raised his right hand and was about to place it on Lusts forehead when he stopped. Instead, he placed his hand on her cheek and lowered the locket. Lust suddenly felt vulnerable, something she had never felt with Scar before. Before Lust could do anything she felt his lips pressed against hers in a light kiss.

Lusts eyes widened in surprise and she pulled away. Never in a million ears would Lust have expected Scar to do that. "He just kissed me", kept running throuh Lusts mind.

Before Lust could do anything to stop him, he kissed her again. Lust put her hands on Scars shoulders in an attempt to push him off but found that she didn't want to. Lust felt Scars hands on her hips pulling her closer to him. It was then that Lust felt something, something she'd never felt before: human.

They pulled apart and just stood there in the rain for awhile. Then, Lust felt her lips form a smile.

"Congratulations Scar. You've won this round".

Lust turned and started to walk away. Now Lust had a better understanding of Scar. "He won't kill me", she thought to herself, "I matter too much to him for that".

--- --- ---

Lust left Scar standing in the rain stunned. He had just kissed Lust. Not Selena, the woman he had loved years ago, but a soulless copy of her, and he had enjoyed it. He had felt longing, but not for Selena, for Lust.

"What's wrong with me?", he thought to himself walking out of the alley. "Maybe I'm finally going insane", he thought to himself has he walked. But not matter what he did, he couldn't get Lust out of his thoughts.

Eventually Scar found a parked car and broke into it. "Stop thinking about her", Scar kept telling himself has he sped through the streets. Scar turned a corner and almost flipped over the car he was in.

"What am I doing? I'm driving like a maniac", he thought to himself. Scar drove until he was out of the city and the stopped abrubtly. Scar got out of the car and fell down to his knees and looked down at the locket around his neck. Scar held it in his hands and felt his eyes start to water.

"Why?", he said, "why did you have to die, and be brought back to life as a monster?"

Scar couldn't stop the memories has they came back. Memories from his childhood about Selena. He had loved her, and had been heartbroken when she died.

"I love you Selena, I'll always remember you", Scar said kissing the locket.
