"I'm wondering if that was a dream..." Ryuuza said to Tsukasa the next day.
"What was?" Tsukasa asked.
"Well...Sora told me that he loved me,and I told him I love him too.." Ryuuza replied.
"I don't know.You were in a coma,so you probably had a lot of be one of them." Tsukasa said.
"It probably was.." Ryuuza replied.
'For some reason,I wish it wasn't..' she thought.
"Bye,Tsukasa"
Ryuuza left.

Before she logged out at the chaos gate,she ran into Sora.
"Hey...Been awhile since I've seen you on here." He said."Yeah,it has.Can't say I haven't seen you lately though.We just talked yesturday." Ryuuza said."I have a question.."She then explained what she thought was a dream."Hm...I don't remember saying that.I do have something I want to talk to you offline about,though.I know you're supposed to rest,but.." Sora said.Ryuuza shook her head."I'll be fine.It won't be for long,right?" she asked."Nope.Well,it may be,but that depends." Sora replied."Sure.Where do ya wanna meet?" Ryuuza asked."..How about...the park?at..seven?Hopefully you'll have eaten dinner by then." Sora said."I will have. I eat at six." Ryuuza replied.
"Great.See ya then!" Sora said.Ryuuza logged out.

'Even though Sora came every day to visit, I never got to see his face when I was in the hospital..my brother was always in the way, or I was sleeping. It's kinda stupid. He knows what I look like, so I'm assuming if someone approaches me it's him.' Miaile thought.
After she ate,she looked at the clock.
"6:45..I'll go early.Takes ten minutes to get there,anyway." She said.
She then left.She arrived there,and looked at her watch.
'Good.I am early.' Miaile thought.She sat down on a park bench.
'I'll just sleep for a minute...' she thought,closing her eyes.
It then began snowing.

Sora came into the park,carrying a box of some kind.
'7 right to the last second.Now,where's Miaile?' he thought.
'And wait..when did it start snowing?'He looked on the ground.
'It's already a foot deep.Maybe Miaile stayed home because of it..'
He looked around the park,and saw a giant lump of snow on a bench.
'Almost looks like a human..'
He brushed the snow off,and then dropped the box."Miaile!" He exclaimed.
'How long have you been out here...' he thought.
'It's my fault.I should have figured she was still too sick to leave her house for something other than school...'
He put his hand around her wrist."No..she-she can't be!..Not after all she went through..she just can't die like this...'He tilted her neck slightly,and put his hand underneath her cheek bone.'Still none..'
"...I must be some kind of selfish bastard.I ask her to come here when I know she's sick.Only for what?A stupid gift!Now the only gift I've ever wanted is gone.."
He picked Miaile off the bench,and carried her home.
'So..this is how it feels to lose someone..it sucks,dammit..."

10 minutes later,Miaile's brother heard a knock on the door.
"Someone's got nerve.It's late."
He opened the door.
"Oh.You again.Miaile's upstairs..I think...""She can't be.Your sister is.." Sora said,going inside and placing Miaile on the couch."Hey,who said you could come in..wait.That's Miaile.." Her brother said."She's WHAT! You..you killed her,didn't you!" her brother asked.
"No.. I.. Well,she is gone.." Sora began.
"WHAT! You murderer!" Her brother exclaimed.
"NO!It's not like that... " Sora began. Miaile's brother then started to choke Sora
"S..top..let me..ex...plain." Sora said."No explaination needed,you bastard."

Outside,Tsukasa(IRL) walked past the park, and as she walked, she
kept hearing an argument get louder and louder.
'Hm.I wonder what they're arguing about. Probably something stupid.
Then again, it's none of my business..' she thought,then walking past Miaile's house.
She noticed the door was open,and saw what was going on.'Wait.I KNOW him.
I see him almost every morning on the way to college.Dad told me that guy's Sora In real life.
So what'd he do to make that guy so mad?' she thought.
Tsukasa knocked on the open door."No need to knock.
Door's open.I'll get to ya as soon as this murderous bastard is dead." Miaile's brother replied.
"That's why I came here,to stop you.WHY are you trying to kill him?" Tsukasa asked.
"He killed my sister,Miaile." Miaile's brother replied.
"Let him go! NOW" Tsukasa demanded.
"And why should I!"
Tsukasa then kicked him where the sun doesn't shine.
"That's why.Sora-kun,are you OK?" she asked.
"Never..coming here again.." Sora said..
"I really don't blame you." Tsukasa said,sweatdropping.

"So,why would you kill Miaile-chan for?Isn't she Ryuuza?"
Sora nodded.
"Yes.And it wasn't intentional. And no one had better say ANYTHING else." Sora said,glaring at Miaile's brother.
"And can we leave?I don't feel like going through that again..." Sora said.
"Anyways...Wait. My throat's STILL killing me..ow..stupid pain.." Sora said.
Tsukasa sighed.She then went into the freezer and got an ice pack.
"This might help with the pain a little."
"Thanks,Tsuka-chan." Sora said.Miaile's parents came into the room.
"Who was that girl?Is she your girlfriend?" her dad asked.
"No.She apparantly knows murderer boy there."
"I DIDN'T HURT HER! Anyway,I asked Miaile earlier to meet me in the park at 7.
I would have never asked her if I knew it was going to snow like this.

She DID come,but by the time I got there,she was already...already...""I was too late.I had no idea it was gonna snow,or I would have told her to stay home.It just came out of nowhere.." Sora said.
"I'm really sorry..."
'And they think they're suffering?I told her to come out so I could tell her I love her,
and give her a present. Her birthday's today..' he thought."It's alright,Sora-kun.
You didn't know it would happen.Neither I,or my wife blame you.
Miaile went out of her own free will." Miaile's dad said.
"Can I be alone for a minute?" Sora asked.
The three members of the Kiseisa family nodded.
"You're saying goodbye to her,aren't you?" Tsukasa asked.
"..Yeah." Sora replied.He put his hand on top of Miaile's.
"Miaile...I regret telling you to go there..if I had known that was gonna happen,
I wouldn't have asked.Miaile,I only asked because
I wanted to tell you that I'm in love with you.That I couldn't live life without you.
And now you're gone. Fate is cruel, huh..." Sora said.

A few minutes later,he turned around."Ok..I'm ready.."
Tsukasa looked at his eyes,
"Sora,your eyes are red. Were you crying?" She asked.
"...of course.The one I fell in love with is gone.
Why wouldn't I?" Sora asked.
Sora then left.
"Miaile..."
When he got home,he logged into "The World"
"She's gone..." he said.
"Who?" Bear asked.
"He actually is caring about someone?" Mimiru asked.
"Haha,very funny.Of course." Sora said.
"Wait..where's Ryuuza?
Everytime I see her,she's with you." Mimiru said.

"...Ryuuza's gone,Mimiru.She's dead." Sora said.
Tsukasa then logged in.
"I'm amazed you didn't already start arguing,Mimiru." he said.
"I was going to. But I feel like I shouldn't.If what's he's saying is true,
then that'd be cruel and heartless.." Mimiru said.
"Did he tell you about Ryuuza?" Tsukasa asked.
Mimiru nodded.
"He's not lying. She is dead.
I saved him from the wrath of her brother, actually." Tsukasa said.

"Yeah. Damn jerk.. anyway, thanks,Tsukasa.
He would have killed me if you didn't come in" Sora said.
Tsukasa nodded. "No problem."
"So,where's she being buried?" Mimiru asked.
"...I don't know.And I hope she never has to be.
She was much too young to die.." Sora said.

"Snap out of it! She's gone! Learn to deal with it! Yeah, she was your friend.
But there's nothing you can do about her death. It happened, just LIVE WITH IT!" Mimiru exclaimed.
"But I don't want to.It hurts too much.." Sora said.Mimiru walked away.
Tsukasa and Bear followed her"That's kinda mean,you know.." Tsukasa said.
"I know.I'm not trying to be for once.
I hate to be the one to suggest it,but we should ask him to join our party." Mimiru said.
Tsukasa shook his head.
"No.It'd probably remind him of Ryuuza. She was the only one who ever willingly went with him." "True.But still...I don't even LIKE him, but yet I feel sorry for him." Mimiru said.
Sora caught up with the group.
"..I know none of you like me, but you didn't have to run away..." he said.
Mimiru was about to yell at him,but stopped herself.

"Sorry."
"Anyway,I have to logout.Bye." Sora said.He then logged out.
"Oh!I just remembered!Wouldn't this place remind him even more
of Ryuuza than going into a dungeon?" Mimiru asked.
"Probably." Tsukasa said.
Back in the real world,Sora left his house.
'I'd better check when the funeral is.. but I really don't want to say goodbye..' he thought.
He went right to Miaile's house,and knocked on the door.

"Hey,it's YOU again!Go away!" Miaile's brother exclaimed.
"No.I have to know when Miaile's..." Sora said.
"Ok,stop being an idiot! MOVE." A familiar voice said.

Sora blinked.
'That's impossible.She had no pulse..' he thought.
The person the voice belonged to pushed Miaile's brother aside.
"Do I know you?"
Sora blinked. "Miaile!But you were.. I'm dreaming." he said.

Miaile shook her head.
"Nope." she said.
"And you don't let me finish.." Sora said,sweatdropping.
"You were gonna say I was dead,right?" Miaile asked.
"Well..yeah.You didn't have a pulse." Sora said.
"You never DID answer my question." Miaile said.
"...You must have amnesia or something.I'm Sora."
"..So YOU'RE Sora.I can't believe it!" Miaile said,smiling.
"What,am I that bad?" Sora asked.
"No, no ,not at all. It's just we're in the same homeroom in school,
and I never knew you were the same guy I'm.. Never mind." Miaile said.

"Same...oh,wait.You sit 3 rows in front of me,
and everyone ignores you for some reason." Sora said.
"Yup.That's me." Miaile replied.
"I always found that stupid,myself.
But anyways.." Sora said. He then continued.
"But how are you alive?I checked your pulse before carrying you home,and you had none."

"I didn't? Odd.. I went to sleep, and then I found myself in my house.
Guess that teaches me for sleeping on a bench. Say... it WAS snowing... Sora,were your hands cold?" Miaile asked.
"Yeah,actually." Sora replied.
"It's harder to feel things like that with cold hands." Miaile said.
Sora sweatdropped. 'Of course it is... Ms. Obvious. Of course, I won't say that to her.'
"Anyways,so what was it you wanted that day?" she asked.
"You mean you don't hate me for asking you,and making you almost die?" Sora asked.
"No,I couldn't.I went of my own free will. Besides, you came exactly as promised.
Only I was almost frozen by then due to there being a blizzard" Miaile said.
Sora embraced her tightly."Thank you,Miaile.It means a lot to me.."

"Anyways,what I wanted was..." he began.
"Well...Miaile,I love you.When I thought you died,
I didn't know what I'd do.You mean everything to me.."
Miaile blushed bright red.
'How do I feel about him...' She thought.
'I have to decide quickly..' She opened her mouth to speak,
yet no words came out.
'What?'
"You really thought you could get away that easy,Ryuuza?"
'WHAT! The voice? How?' Miaile thought. She noticed the entire scene vanish before her eyes,
and standing next to her was Higure.
"Higure,what's going on!" she asked. Higure looked at the ground.
"Ryuuza,what just happened was an illusion.You never went outside. None of that happened.Unfortunately..you're still in a coma.." he said.

"WHAT!How!" she asked.
"Think about it. How is it possible for you to have never seen Sora in real life,
if he was right in front of your face?
And it's impossible for someone to seem dead,
then come back." Higure said.

"But why was I data drained?" she asked.
"...I'm sorry.I can't tell you. She'll kill us both." Higure said.
"Wait.Which coma is this? Did I even MEET Sora?Was the
whole event,and everything that happened a lie?" she asked.

"..." Higure replied.
"But DID I even MEET Sora?
I don't care if nothing else happened.. I..I.." Ryuuza said.

Higure smiled.
"I don't care what Morganna says. I have to tell you." he said.
"Wait.Have to? I never did meet him,then..just you.
And Mimiru-chan.No Sora..." Ryuuza said.
"I'm sorry.But you never did." Higure said.

"That's a cruel joke,you stupid voice! I finally meet someone who LIKES me,and doesn't think I'm worthless,and I never actually did meet him.
You created the perfect guy for me just to fool me!" Ryuuza exclaimed.
"Stop this at once!" Ryuuza heard a voice exclaim.
She turned around,and saw a girl in a white dress, and a white cape with the sign for 'infinite' clasping it together.

"Aura!" Higure exclaimed.

"Aura?" Ryuuza asked.

"Aura was the second of those kind of AIs.She's here to defeat Morganna!" Higure exclaimed.

"Yes.You're right,Higure. She has caused so many bad things to happen,
and must be deleted immediately!" Aura exclaimed.

Higure began laughing.

"What's so funny,Higure?" Aura asked.

"Sorry.I just remembered something the player my data's based off said.
He said that someone should stick a magnet on the main computer at CC Corp." Higure replied.

"That makes no sense.." Aura said.
"It'd delete Morganna.Everything else too, but mainly Morganna." Higure said.

'So...Higure really IS part of Sora's character data..' Ryuuza thought.
She smiled.
Aura sighed,then shook her head.
"Higure,will you help me with this?" she asked
Higure nodded.
"Of course."
"Then let's go." Aura said.
Ryuuza checked her data while they were fighting Morganna.

'I still have all my abilities...and I'm a Twinblade.
Higure..lied to me?' she thought.
"Higure!Why'd you lie to me!" she exclaimed.
"Huh? Aura,can you keep fighting her alone for a minute.
I have to tell Ryuuza-chan something." Higure said.
"But I.." Aura began.
"It'll only be a minute.Please.
In case I die..she needs to know this." Higure said.
Aura nodded.
"Thanks." Higure said.
He looked at Ryuuza.
"Ryuuza-chan,most of what happened was a dream. But only what happened
after you got data drained the second time.
As I said,you're still in a coma.
And yes,you DID meet Sora.
He's been at the hospital you're at everyday,actually."

"But you said.." Ryuuza said.
"Yeah,I know what I said. Remember how I kept saying Morganna would kill me?
She was going to then as well if I didn't lie." Higure replied.
"But you said you'd disregard her,and tell me anyway.." Ryuuza said.
"I know.It was a setup,again because of her threats." Higure said.
"I'm really sorry,Ryuuza." Higure said, returning to the fight with Morganna.

'But how is this battle going on...I'm not in "The World"...' Ryuuza thought.
In the real world, Ryuuza's eyes opened for a few seconds, and saw a computer was running. She also noticed one of her classmates sitting next to her.

'What's he doing here? I thought all my classmates hate me..'
she thought,closing her eyes again.

In the hospital room,her classmate was now watching the computer screen.
"Come on...just kill that thing already!" he exclaimed

Back in Miaile's dream..
'How am I seeing this?' she thought.
"Higure, one question.
How am I seeing this if I'm not playing?" she asked.
"Easy.At the moment,you're IN the system.
If Aura and I don't kill Morganna, you'll be in a coma until someone does...
it's very complicated." Higure said.

"What!So right now,I'm dead in a way!" she exclaimed.
"Sort of."
He returned to fighting.
"That's creepy.." Ryuuza said.
At that moment,Aura disappeared.
"Now only this pesky data remains." Morganna said.
Higure continued fighting.
"WHY WON'T SHE DIE!" he exclaimed.
"You fool.I cannot die." Morganna said.
Higure fell to the ground.
"Dammit.." he said,beginning to fade out.
"Ryuuza..I'm...glad..I... told you. I..I... didn't... expect... this, but.." he said.
Ryuuza knelt next to him.
"Come on, Higure.. You're not gonna die!" she exclaimed.
"...I hope not." he said,now disappearing even more.

"But.. I must tell you.. I wish the two of you luck in the future. You both seem to be destined for each other. No,wait. I KNOW you'll be happy in the future.Just...keep..going.Your feelings... aren... aren't.. unrequited. I.. KNOW they... aren't."At that moment,Higure vanished completely,like Aura.
"Why..." she said.
"You bitch!" she exclaimed.
"Ah,angry again, arent we? You said the same thing before." Morganna said.
"You put Sora into a coma with your thing, me two times, killed Aura, AND Higure.
Higure was my friend!
I know he was an AI, but he didn't deserve to die!" Ryuuza exclaimed.

"And what will YOU do?
You do not have the power of the amulet anymore." Morganna said.

Ryuuza blinked,then smiled.
'That X must conceal it..' she thought.
Her eyes went from normal,to a shade of red.
"You're dead,bitch." She exclaimed.
She mentally blinked.
'Why does it sound like Sora and I are talking at the same time?' she asked herself.
'Wait...Could that be...?'

'Higure?'
She then mentally smiled."Data Reconfiguation!"
She noticed a huge black cellphone thing fall from the sky,
and turn into tiny little dust particles.The dust particles then reformed into a trash can,
then into a single speck of dust.Ryuuza/Higure smashed the dust particle in his/her palm.

"Now come back.I dare you." Higure/Ryuuza said.
"You see,Ryuuza..that's why Morganna wanted the amulet.
It was the only thing that could destroy her." Higure said.
"Thank you,Higure,for everything." Ryuuza said.
Higure separated from her body,then smiled.

"Gambatte!"

Miaile then woke up from her coma.
"Miaile-chan!You're up!" her classmate said.
"Yeah..but why would you visit me? To give me a hard time?" Miaile asked.
The classmate shook his head.
"No.Besides,I never did. Miaile-chan,you ARE Ryuuza in the world,right?" he asked.
Miaile blinked,then nodded.

"I'm really glad.I have the right girl then..." Her classmate said.
"I know your name,but what's it in "The World?" Miaile asked.
Her classmate blinked.
"Oh wait.That's right.You wouldn't know.You've been in a coma..."
"So,who are you?" Miaile asked.
"Sora." he replied.
Ryuuza blushed.
"Sora-kun?"
He nodded.
Miaile sat up,and hugged him.
She blinked as she felt him hug her back.
'Higure wasn't lying..' she thought.

"Miaile,I.." Sora began.
"Sora,I.." She began.

"I love you!" the both exclaimed at the same time.
They then kissed each other.

A few months later,in "The World"
"Hey,Ryuuza!" Mimiru exclaimed.
Ryuuza turned around.
"Hi,Mimiru-chan!" she replied.
Sora sweatdropped.
"Ryuuza,you weren't mocking her,were you?" he asked.
"No.Might have unintentionally,though.Sorry." Ryuuza said.

"No prob. So,anyways, can I ask why you're ALWAYS with Sora?
Ever since you came out of that coma, you're always in a party with him." Mimiru said.

"Well..." Ryuuza said,blushing.She looked at Sora.
"A few days after Ryuuza got out of her coma,we began dating." Sora said,also blushing.
"So,how do you both find time to play the game AND go on dates?" Mimiru asked.
"Amazing.You didn't yell at me,or call Ryuuza an idiot for dating me.." Sora said.
"That wasn't the question! And I didn't say anything cause I KNOW you've liked each
other for awhile, and there's nothing I can do about it.I should have said something
WAY back then. Then again, I DID warn her.." Mimiru said.

Ryuuza sweatdropped.
"And it wasn't needed. The one you said was horrible is the one I ended up falling in love with.
Kinda funny.." she said.
"Anyways,we ARE on a date right now."
"But HOW?You're playing the game!And online dating doesn't count!" Mimiru exclaimed
"I have 2 computers in my house.Ryuuza just put her data into the second computer." Sora said.Mimiru sweatdropped.

"That's not a date..that's called you're both playing the world at the same time in the same room!"
Ryuuza shook her head.
"We have the computers next to each other.
Besides,going to someone elses house IS a date."
"Considering we just came back from a movie and dinner.." Sora said.
"SORA!She wasn't supposed to know we went out FIRST!No fun!" Ryuuza exclaimed.
"Oh,I see how it is..you go on dates BEFORE getting online.." Mimiru said.

The couple nodded.
"You two.." Mimiru said,shaking her head.
"So..you've been dating...6 months?"
Ryuuza shook her head.
"I've been out of my coma for a year and 6 months.So it's...1 year,5 months,and 3 weeks."

"Shows how much I talk to you.
You both always run off somewhere
before I get a chance to say anything." Mimiru said.

Ryuuza sweatdropped.

"Sorry.Didn't mean to.Anyways..we have to go."
"Oh..I see how it is..." Mimiru said, grinning mischieviously.

"NOT FOR THAT!" Ryuuza exclaimed.
"School tomorrow." Sora said.
"But you're both in the same house! That has to mean what I'm thinking it does,
unless one of you is gonna walk home in the dark!" Mimiru exclaimed.
Ryuuza shook her head.
"No. None of us is.We live in the same house."

"And you're both still in high school." Mimiru said,her eyes turning to dots.
"NO!we're both freshmen in college!" Sora exclaimed.
"And we have to be up by 6 am.So bye!"
He logged out.
"What'd I do!" Mimiru asked.
"Nothing.He's apparantly just tired..he just went to bed." Ryuuza said.
"Oh.Explains why he's WAY more irritable than before.
So,you two engaged yet?" Mimiru asked.

"No. We're seeing if even living together works.
If it does,THEN we'll get to.
Come to think of it,we promised each other that if we lasted 6 months together,
we'd be married.. but he still hasn't asked me.
And it's only 2 weeks before it's been a year since we said this." Ryuuza said.
"You both live together,and expect me to believe you don't.." Mimiru said,
cut off immediately by Ryuuza.
"I'm not kidding!" Ryuuza said,sweatdropping.
"And you both don't even.." Mimiru began.
"Well...if you were gonna say what I'm thinking, yes.. we do." Ryuuza said,blushing.

At that moment,they heard a man's voice.
"Well,I see someone's been prying again." Bear said.
"Mimiru,if you keep this up,you're gonna end up one of those gossiping old ladies!" Tsukasa exclaimed,jokingly.
"But how do you know what I was doing?" Mimiru asked.
"We logged in just as you began to ask Ryuuza and Sora questions." Tsukasa said.
"Oh...do you think I got too personal?" Mimiru asked.
Both Bear and Tsukasa nodded.
"Oops.Sorry." Mimiru said.
"And Sora's not lying,Mimiru-chan.. the class they're taking IS at 6 am.
I took it Freshman year,too." Tsukasa said.
Ryuuza sweatdropped.
"Completely forgot about that class! Sorry! I have to go! Bye!" Ryuuza exclaimed, logging out.

IRL

"Took long enough,.." Sora said.
"Sorry.I lost track of time.
Mimiru wouldn't be quiet. Tsukasa pretty much saved me from her." Miaile said.
Sora laughed a little.
"It figures.She doesn't know WHEN to shut up."
Ryuuza then sat down next to Sora.
She sighed.
'When's he gonna ask me?It's been longer than we said..' she thought.
She then noticed Sora taking a small box out of a nearby drawer.
"I'm sorry this took to long,Miaile.I had a VERY hard time deciding which one.." Sora said.
He opened the box.
"Miaile Kiseisa,will you marry me?" he asked.
Miaile smiled,then blushed.
"Yes!of course!" she exclaimed.

6 months later

"Why are we here again?" a woman with kind of short brown hair asked.
A woman next to her sweatdropped.
"We were invited, Mimiru-chan. By Ryuuza. Remember?"
"Well, I know I was. Did she do all the inviting, or did her lazy fiancee ask as well?" Mimiru asked.
"Sora asked most of us,actually. Only you and BT were asked by Ryuuza,cause Sora'd try to PK BT online,and you because you hate him." The woman said.

"But why'd they ask online,Tsukasa?" Mimiru asked.
Another woman quickly answered the question.
"They didn't know your addresses. And didn't ask me to find out for them."
"And how would you have known them!" a man next to her asked.
"You know I have my ways, Lios." she said.
"Helba!You're not supposed to hack into other's personal data!" Lios exclaimed.
"I normally wouldn't.No point in it.But for a friend I would." Helba said.
"They could have asked me,too.." a young man about Sora and Ryuuza's age said.

"Don't tell me..Wiseman,are you involved in this hacking too?" Lios asked.
Wiseman smiled.
"No.Well,that's partly a lie.I don't hack.I always ask Helba."
A woman in her 20's now stood next to Tsukasa.
"So,where's the party?" she asked.
"The wedding didn't start yet,Mistral." Tsukasa replied.
A boy a little older than Wiseman then came in.
He was with a girl about Mimiru's age,and a man in his 20's.

"Why were we asked last?" he asked.
"You couldn't be found.Did you think you were forgotten,Kite?" Helba asked.
"Well..." Kite began."Why would you be forgotten?You are the one responsible for getting Sora out of a coma." Helba said.
"Well..that's true.But why didn't one of them just look us up?" the girl asked.
"BlackRose..we're outlaws,remember?
Our data's not easy to find.Helba, you invited everyone else on my list,right?" Kite asked.

Helba nodded.
"Yes.All but Gardenia.She refused to come."
"But why?I don't think they did anything to her.." BlackRose said.
"I don't know.Now if you'll excuse me, I must find our Best Man.
Well,Ryuuza's anyway. Sora wasn't too happy with her choice." Helba said,leaving.

"So,who are all of you?" Mistral asked.

"I'm Kite. The girl next to me is BlackRose, the guy's Balmung, the other girl next to him is Rachel,the one next to her is Marlo, the one next to him is Elk,the one next to him is Terajima Ryoko,and,the poor girl, next to her is Piros."
"I see! Hi,Kite-san! Here,I'll take you to meet my husband and my baby!" Mistral exclaimed.
She grabbed Kite's hand, and dragged him off,
leaving the rest of his party sweatdropping.

At that moment,the ceremony began.
"We have gathered here this day to join..." the preacher began.
Both Sora and Miaile spaced out,until they heard the exchaning of vows thing begin.
"Do you,Sora,take Miaile Kiseisa to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold,
for all eternity?"

'What's he talking about..' Miaile thought.
"I do."
'Oh.It's that.' Miaile thought
"Do you,Miaile, take Sora to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold,
for all eternity?"

"I do." Miaile said.
"You may kiss the bride."
Sora then kissed Miaile,and everyone in the room clapped.

"Say, Rachel, maybe you and Piros will get married,too." BlackRose joked.
"EW!I hope not! I don't wanna catch the bouquet now.." Rachel said.
"I hope I do.." BlackRose said,looking over to Kite.
At that very moment, Kite felt a tap on his shoulder.
"Hey.Why'd ya forget about me?"

Kite looked up.
"Oh!Nuke Usagimaru! I didn't,
well.. when I was introducing everybody, I guess I did. Sorry." he said.
"No problem." Nuke replied.
Next to Nuke was a 16 year old girl.
"..She's not your girlfriend,is she?" Kite asked,his eyes turning to dots.
"Um..NO.This is my sister,Rikani." Nuke said.
"Hi,Rikani.I'm Kite!" He said,extending his had.
Rikani shook it.
"Um...hi."
A minute later,Miaile threw the bouquet to the audience.

"Avoiding!" Rachel exclaimed,moving slightly."What,am I that bad?" Nuke asked.
"No,BlackRose jinxed me!If I catch it,I'll marry Piros!" Rachel exclaimed.

"And why would you do that?" Nuke asked.
"Cause she said that we might get married! If there's even a chance,
I wanna avoid it!" Rachel said.

"I see. If I were a girl I'd wanna too. That guy's creepy." Nuke said,sweatdropping.
"I'm amazed it didn't land yet.." Rikani said.

Once she was done saying that,the bouquet landed in her arms.
"Ah,I see.Your sister's gonna get married before you!" Rachel said.
"I hope not.That'd be REALLY embarassing.." Nuke said.
After that,people began to leave. Rikani stood up, as well.
As she was leaving,she saw a guy she'd never seen before walk past.
"Hey..Do any of you know who he is?" she asked.

Rachel nodded.
"Yeah,he's that quiet guy,Moonstone." she said.
"Moonstone,huh.." Rikani said,blushing.

10 months later

'I can't believe it..' Miaile thought.
'I never expected this to happen..
but I'm still happy..'
She blushed,then went to sleep.

About 4 hours later,she heard her brother talk.
"Say..what DID Miaile have an operation for,anyway?" he asked.

She also heard Tsukasa talk.
"I wonder if she came through ok.." she said.
"Operation?What are you talking about?" she heard Sora ask.
"Why else would she be in here? Is she in a coma AGAIN?" Miaile's brother asked.
"No. I'm making sure of that." Sora replied
"Then what IS it?" Tsukasa asked.
Sora simply smiled.
"You'll find out soon enough. But be assured,she's fine." he said.
As soon as Sora was finished talking, both Tsukasa and Miaile's brother
ran towards Miaile's room.

"Um..please leave Miaile alone.." Sora said,sweatdropping.
Both ignored him unintentionally,and saw Miaile lying in a bed, a baby in her arms.

"See?She's sleeping.Leave her be." Sora said.
Tsukasa smiled.
"The baby's adorable.But why keep it such a secret?" she asked.
"Well...um.." Sora began.
"I wanted you both to see for yourselves." he said,
'I also wanted to avoid her brother's comments..' he thought,sweatdropping.

"Well, well. Looks like someone did something other than play that stupid game during their honeymoon.." Nikaite said.
"Shut up." Sora replied.
"And he's shy about it,too. Family reunions are gonna be fun." Nikaite said.
"And if you keep it up,you won't see any of us at family reunions." Sora said.
"Finally you act like you used to.I was wondering if being married would
completely change you for the worse,but it didn't." Tsukasa said.

"And why would I?" Sora asked.
"I dunno.For whatever the reason, most people do." Tsukasa said.

Miaile then woke up.
"..."
"Oh,hi,Tsukasa-chan. Hi stupid Nikaite.What are you doing here?" she asked.
"We both thought something happened to you cause you were in the hospital." Tsukasa said,
"Oh,I see.I'm glad you were concerned at least.But as you can tell,I'm fine." Miaile said.
She then looked at her husband.
"Hi,dear." she said,smiling.
"Morning. " Sora said.

"So,think of any names for him yet?" Sora asked."Hmm...How about Sora?" Miaile asked.
"That'd be confusing.." Sora said.
"Besides,I wouldn't want a copied name."
Miaile smiled.
"Sora it is."
Sora sweatdropped.
"Should have known she was gonna do that."
"I wonder what those jerks in school would do if they found out the 'nobodies' were married..?"
"Probably taunt us. Or me, rather. They liked you." Miaile said.

"A little. Not really, though. But really...
"Who would have thought we'd be married?" Sora said.
Miaile laughed a little.
"I never expected it. They certainly didn't"
She then smiled warmly.
"I'm leaving. The lovebirds are making me sick." Nikaite said, then leaving.

Tsukasa then followed.'I never expected Higure to be right,either.
He knew this would happen. Funny how an AI knew our true feelings for each other.' she thought.
'I can't even thank him... After all,he died protecting me.
But yeah.If I ever meet you again, somehow.. well, Thank you, Higure.
If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be alive right now, and the happiest I've ever been at that.'
