Rebirth
White Eyes- Gackt
Space catches the lunatic moon,
cradling it in both hands, in fear
until my voice reaches,
dawn will not be welcome
all your words...
all your mannerisms...
they were still too fragile for me
you never touched the hand I held out to you.
I gave you a kiss, you, so cold
no matter how many times I scream out your name,
no one can erase the sadness accumulating around me
I trembled, amidst this sin
of continually making even our finding one another,
into a mistake
all my feelings...
all my heart...
still remembers you even now.
You, who so loved the sky at dawn,
in the end you showed those tears in the light,
you showed me, just who you were.
Oh mounting sadness no one can stop,
Fall forever for all I care! Deeper!
It doesn't matter how you make us suffer,
it won't tear us apart!
Until this body rots, it won't be taken by anyone!
you never touched the hand I held out to you.
I gave you a kiss, you, so cold
no matter how many times I scream out your name,
no one can erase the sadness accumulating around me
Oh my one and only, fly high into the air
held by the earth turning a silver shade
Whenever I look up, you'll be smiling
and one day, we'll meet again in this sky
BUAHAHHAHAHA... GORE GOTCHA TONGUE? ...j/k, but seriously, twas bloody and I apologise... I know, im surprised myself- but oh well, has to have some violence, eh? dun worry, we'll take a break from it for now... -evil voice- for... nooow...

Ch.12- Love Sick
Kali let her eyes flutter open. The second day in that room. She glanced over at Riley to see her drooling with her arm off of the side of the bed, she smiled at the sight. Then heard the sound which had woken her up in the first place- birds were singing just outside of her window, probably in the training field in which she had a clear view of when looking outside.
She sat up and rubbed her firey eyes, then it triggered in her mind, just like yesterday morning. She then sighed, letting her head flop back down into the pillow, she rolled over thinking about Sloth... again.
Riley's silent yawn wasn't even heard as she stood up, looking over at the alarm clock, she noticed it was noon and was surprisedeven at herself for sleeping this long. She glanced over at Kali briefly, guessing she was awake since her constant snores weren't heard anymore, she stood up and got dressed in her normal outfit, then she walked to the small bathroom- inside was only a blurry glass built-in shower, a toilet- a shelf with towels above it, and a metal sink. She got ready in there, brushing her teeth, washing her face, and re-doing her braid.
Afterwards, she walked straight to Kali's bed, grabbed the edge of the blanket and pulled.
"GAH! RILEY!" Kali yelped, rolling out and onto the cold floor. She immediately stood up and started jumping for her bunched up blanket held in Riley's right arm above her head.
"NO FAIR! GIVE IT BAAACK!" she shook, cold, hopping to try to snatch herback, only for it to be held higher.
"No. You need to stop moping around already and get outside today, maybe train or something," she replied coldly.
"Aw, I didn't know you cared so much!" she said back.
"I dont. You stink AND you look a very pathetic decor to... our room." she tossed the blanket back on Kali's bed. "Take a shower and get dressed," she smirked, "I have a surprise waiting downstairs, so I'd suggest you look your best."
'What? a surprise... she better not be planning anything.' she thought. "Grrr. Fine!" Kali said, disappearing into the bathroom and slamming the door shut after snatching her casual outfit from the drawer.
TWOHOURS LATER. (I know. What does she do in there?)
Kali emerged, straightening her skirt only to be pulled right out the door by an impatient Riley.
She was led to the staircase, dragged down (while whining about being hungry), she almost then nose-planted headlong into a thick-rimmed guy (with a blindfold underneath)with black spike hair who drawed back at the immediate touching of her nose against his.
"Hoold your horses loverboy," a red-headed chubbier man said, his arm holding the man in place. He then looked at Riley. "Hey, why didn't you blindfold her?" he asked.
"The deal I made with that egg-headed, ashtray breath, perverted little slim-" "Hiya, honey." said a cool voice, slinking up to Riley the man put his arm around her shoulder and grinned, pointing at Kali.
"Heeey, wheres the blindfold. Its supposed to be a blind date." he pouted.
She scowled daggers at him as his hand recoiled in a miniature curl, she then stamped off. "Your on your own, Kal." she grunted over her shoulder, the blonde smoking man flew after her.
That older looking guy with the gray hair finally spoke. "Dont mind him. Thats just Havok, hes harmless. Im Watteau Farman." he shook Kali's hand.
The shorter man pointed at himself. "And im Heymans Breda... your Kali, right?" he addressed.
"Uhm... yeah, but what did you want me blindfolded for? a blind date?" she asked.
She then noticed the guy with glasses shaking uncontrollably and looked at him confused as he was sweating on the flowers he held mechanically out towards the door.
Falman turned him around towards her and removed the blindfold... his eyes were shut.
"You can open your eyes ya know." Breda said. Had he a stickhe would have long since poked him to see if he'd drop dead.
His eyes creaked open a slit, then all the way as he seemed to stop breathing.
Kali wondered what he was thinking...
"...why shes just... a small child..." he wondered to himself.
Breda and Falman cringed, then ran. This was when the man with glasses took to thought what he had actually just said.
ED + "short" PAIN!
Kali + "short" PAIN?
He took a deep breath and waited... and waited...
She cocked her head to the side at him.
"...are you-"
"AH!" he yelped.
"...alright...?" she asked.
"...um... yess..." he took back his composure, quite emberrassed.
"H-how old...are you?" he asked gently, trying not to rub her the wrong way.
She smiled. "16."
"...-tumbleweed-... oh."
INSIDE FURY: AHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH-
BACK TO REALITY
"Soooo..."
"So..."
Awkward silence befalls as Fury taps his foot in the entrance doorway behind him.
He could just escape now... maybe feel bad about it later for ridiculing her hight in his mind, losing the blind date bet, AND running out on a clueless girl... but we ALL know the kind of guy Fury is, sooo...
"...did you... maybe want to, uhm..." he found his face turning hot as he tugged on his collar, "I mean, if you wanted to. You dont have to." he held his hands up in defense.
Kali blinked, then looked solemn.
"...may..." She thought of Sloth. Why can she not get over him? WHY? ".be... yes." She grinned, "I'd love to."
"COME ON!" rivers streamed down Havoks face, carraning after Riley down a random hill, "PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEEEEEE! GO OUT WITH MEEEEE!"
"NO! LEAVE ME ALONE YOU JERK!" she yelled over her shoulder, speeding as fast as she could, "YOUR A STALKING LUNATIC WHO HAS NO LIFE!"
"YOUR MY LIFE!" he exclaimed.
"NO!"
"Please?" he popped out of the tree.
"NO!"
"Please?" he came out from behind the fire hydrant.
"NEVER NOW GO!"
She transmuted the hydrant besides him to explode, colliding him into the air as she continued to run.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he whined.
The hoot of an owl
"I... I... had a good time..." Kali ushered, they were planning to break to their seperate rooms in the hall as they walked.
She wasn't lying either. She truly did have a good time. Funny since the whole time she tried having as bad of a time as she could, but he always seemed to change her mood somehow... funny since they went to such simple places and did such simple things that you do on a date with another of the opposite sex... definiately a first date. He even let her choose where to go.
They went to dinner at a low-star restraunt (an attempt at not being happy). But all that accomplished was him making her laugh at playing with the cultry, making faces in the food, and being much too mannerly. She caught herself doing so and scolded herself by nature.
Afterwards, they went to the riverside. Basically a walk in the park as they talked about things. Sloths name didn't show up at all, he didn't even try to ask about her past (she was thankful for that), and seemed to find intrest in animals. Hell, after a few prying questions on her part, she found she wasn't the only military personell who slept with stuffed animals! when leaving the park, she remembered Sloth only then and found herself scolding her mentally bruised mind once again in haste.
After that would be one of the... well, okay... cutest things shes seen him do (but dont tell her I told you!). They found a dead cat in the streed and he shed a tear. She ended up comforting him on the park bench, finding herself somewhat sad by the sight as well. A dead frozen cat, not what you see everyday nor want to.
This was the WORSE part to her yet! Conveniently they were sitting down on the bench and the sun SET. IT SET! How much more romantic can you get than a setting sun and your arm around your date in a park?
She pulled her hand away and blushed then, feeling much, much, much more stupid and emberassed than ever the whole day. When did it get so late anyways? and why was he scooting up to her. His tears were wiped away and he was blushing like mad. Most likely much heavier than her and he brushed her hand with his.
Her eye had twitched, she stood up, then announced that she would like to go back to the barracks then since it was 'getting late'.
So here she was now. He had walked her to her door and that same awkward silence. Avoided all day by the two since it first began, he shuffled a few inches towards her. What was he doing?
She seemed to panic. She usually did under pressure, but not small things like this. So what if he wants the first date kiss? it'll only be one little peck, not some passionate Oh-my-god-your-fin'-hot tongue stuff!
She seemed to snap though, under only immense pressure, so her instincts were to avoid it. Could you truly blame her in the situation? so what if she was in love with some guy she met and just so happened to decide to go on a train ride with him in which he was just ripped away from her by some devious older woman? so what? so what? she still couldn't help but feel her stomach twist... she was going to be sick if the pressure became too much...
"GoodnightFury." she practically slipped under the crack in the door as she slipped her key in behind her and slammed the door shut. Breathing in relief and guilt.
Riley jumped out, a chain in hand. "GET OUT OF MY- oh its just you." she threw it over her shoulder and took her seat back on her own bed, resettling the book on her knees. "So, how'd it work out with you and loverboy?" she smirked.
Kali looked emotionless to flop back onto her bed. She breathed in the familiar scent of the pillow and sighed, feeling an unsettling dizziness wash over her. "Badly."
Next time on Rebirth:Ch.13-Whats In A Name?

Time Will Tell- Utada Hikaru
I'm always told that
Crying won't change anything
But no one cries with that purpose in mind
I worry and I just can't help it
I just can't control the time
Take off into the blue sky
From this long runway!
Time will tell
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, it's ok if you don't try so hard
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, there's no hard road to tomorrow
Surely, surely, surely
Even if there's rain, if we fly above the clouds
Always blue sky
Even the sun seems so close
Like you could grab it with your hand
Dont get depressed alone
We just can't control the time
Take off into the blue sky
From this long runway!
Time will tell
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, now I can't even fool myself with these excuses
Time will tell
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, so now it's ok to cry if I feel like it
More, more, more
Time will tell
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, it's ok if you don't try so hard
When time passes we'll understand
Cry, there's no hard road to tomorrow
Surely, surely, surely
