Yup. The epilogue to 'Sacrifice'. Because I just had to write another songfic. Nya...

Author's Note: This in no way reflects my opinions about Ayane. I like Ayane. She's angsty, and she appeals to many teenagers around the world who think their lives suck. She's got lilac-colored hair. She's cool. But she's also very evil. Duh.

Sugarcult

"She's the Blade"


Don't you make a move tonight
You can only stagger

Magenta eyes watched the brunette that wandered familiarly around her kitchen... her eyes narrowed at the sight of a very happy-looking Hitomi.

Once shes got you in her sight
You're the one she's after

The woman, now nearing her late-twenties, was waltzing around the kitchen as she cooked and hummed, completely unaware of being watched.

She's the blade and you're just paper
You're afraid cause she's got closer
You're back-steppin and she's back-stabbing everything in your life

Anger boiled within the watchers small, lithe form. Was Hayate-sama happy? No. Because he was with-out his Hitomi, the woman he said he'd love forever, and then she turned around and slept with a screaming monkey of a fighter, named Jann Lee.

She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back
She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back

She reached around her back, grasping the hilt of the ninja-to that laid there. She pulled it out a little, then stopped... she'd thought she'd heard something...

One by one you count the fights
Doesn't even matter

On the other side of the house, another person was watching Hitomi. A red-headed, very handsome man, now in his mid-thirties. Like the other watcher, he too was a shinobi.

That she's got you by surprise
Misery's your master

He kept his eyes on his love. He only knew that there was an assassin lurking around her home... stalking, tracking, waiting for the right moment to strike. He wasn't sure who it was, or why they were targeting her.

She's the blade and you're just paper

It didn't matter. If he had to watch and protect and love her from afar, he would. Even if it meant 'shimmering' in from Japan occassionally, and asking Kasumi and Hayabusa for help.

You're afraid cause she's got closer

And on the North side of the small house/dojo, another redhead and her guardian waited.

You're back-stepping and she's out wrecking everything in your life

And that was when the assassin struck. In a flash of soft purple butterfly wings, Ayane disappeared.

She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back

She reappeared in Hitomi's kitchen, barrelling into the German woman, and knocking to the floor. The blade was out, and Ayane was desperately trying to place against Hitomi's tanned neck.

She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back

Gripping her assailant's wrist and the hilt of the blade, Hitomi was able to keep it away from her skin.

She stole everything
She controlled everything
She stole everything
She controlled everything

The three other ninja took the opportunity to step in. In flashes of white feathers, sakura, and leaves, Hayate, Kasumi and Hayabusa (respectively) appeared in Hitomi's kitchen.

She's the blade
She's the blade

Ayane was stunned for the moment; she didn't know they had followed her. Seeing an opening, Hitomi used one hand to push the blade away, and balled a fist, punching Ayane square in the nose.

She's the blade and you're just paper
She's the blade and you're just...

Kasumi mumbled something, gathering energy in her hand, and throwing a ninpo spell at the Hajin-Mon leader. In the same flash of butterflies, Ayane disappeared. Hayabusa followed her, while Kasumi and Hayate stayed behind.

She's the blade and you're just paper
You're afraid cause she's got you closer

Hayate helped Hitomi off the floor, unable to not take her into his arms. They embraced for a long while.

She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back

Hayabusa reappeared a few moments later, Ayane draped over his shoulder. Unfortunately, she was still no match for the Super Ninja.

She stole everything your heart desired
Now you want it back

He and Kasumi disappeared with Ayane, leaving Hitomi and Hayate alone for a moment. They just stared at each other.

She stole everything
She controlled everything

His head bowed, kissing her lips softly. As she started to kiss back, he 'shimmered' out, leaving her only kissing air.

She stole everything
And controlled everything
