I'm writing the second to last chapter! It's so exciting! After all of the procrastination! And, to add to the good news, the last chapter will also be uploaded by Monday! Better get this started then…ON WITH THE STORY!

XSenko's POVX

I had so much fun with Yun while at the lake, I almost forgot about what I had to do when I got back…almost. Now I was laying in my bed, waiting for Yuki to come back from his check up. Staring absently out the open window, I made stories out of the stars and the full moon that they all surrounded. Somewhere lost in my thoughts, I heard the click of the door opening and closing. Without moving my head, I looked across the room to see Yuki silently walk to his bed and sit down on it.

Looking at him made me think of our last night on the houseboat, looking at the sunset, so perfect. I found myself blushing when I came back to reality. He was just sitting there, so I sat up, getting a better look of him. He didn't notice me sit up, seeing as his eyes were focused on the tiles below his feet.

"Yuki..?" I said hesitantly, trying not to disturb him too much. He looked up at me, his face telling me to continue. "Well.." I looked down, nervous about what I was going to do. "If it was me who was going to die, it would be better, because…because you have so much left to live for! You would get over me and I would watch you from heaven until someone else comes along and becomes your guardian angel! And…and…" I was crying now, it all seemed too much now. I shut my eyes tight, feeling the hot tears slide down my face. I can do this, all I have to do is remember why. I opened my eyes and turned to face Yuki, who was looking concerned and fighting with the urge to stand up and hug me for comfort. I put a determined look on my face and continued. "And if you were the one that died, I would still be stuck here, nothing left for my future except to wait for the news that I will die and I can't stand that life. You have so much more to live for. And so…" I took a deep breath in. "I have researched it and I know how I can cure you completely and I can die instead. All of your sickness will go to me and since I'm already sick I'll just die and you can live a long life." I saw Yuki's eyes grow wide. "If not for anything else, do it to break my own curse. Do it to prove that curses can be broken. Do it to prove to yourself there is hope for yourself! This is something I want Yuki. I want you to live the rest of your life sickness free with hope in your heart! And if I die tonight instead of you, the spirits won't be able to stop me from getting what I want, and it will break my curse. Please Yuki….Do it for youself…." My voice was becoming a whisper. "Do it for me….Yuki….I love you." His eyes were no longer as wide, but there were silent tears sliding down his face as he looked at me. I couldn't read his face.

"I love you too, Senko." He whispered back to me. My breath caught in my throat as he spoke. The way he said, it was like the world had stopped to listen to his heart speak.

Both of us still had tears staining our cheeks, but we each smiled at each other. Sad to ruin the moment, I spoke quietly, eyes downcast. "So…Will you let me die in your place?" Even though I couldn't see his face, I could feel e was in deep conflict with this problem. There were so many reasons to let me die instead, and only one otherwise, but it was still a hard decision. (if you didn't figure it out or whatever, the one other reason was because he didn't want Senko to die…so yea clearing that up). I heard him sigh so I looked up to face him. His hand was on top of his head, running through his hair. He seemed to be just sitting there, thinking about what to do over the weekend, or something simple like that, but when you looked in his eyes, you saw an equivalent to a war being battled out. I suddenly felt bad for putting such a burden on him, to decide who dies.

"I know this must be hard to figure out….but Yuki…I want you to live, because you can. Don't feel guilty about being the one who lives, because it's what I want and as long as you don't completely forget about me, I'll watch over you and be content." I silently slid my legs out from under the covers and stepped across the room to him. Kneeling down in front of him, I tilted up his chin, so he was facing me. "Please Yuki…I love you so much, but I know that there's someone else out there for you. But even if there was for me, I would never be able to meet them. You could leave Yuki, you could live. And Yun, you have family and friends still here with you. You won't be alone at all. They don't want you to die. Please Yuki, it would be better if I died." The tears were still running down our faces, but we didn't care.

He leaned forward and kissed me. His kiss was filled with passion and a longing to live like this forever, like he didn't want to let go. I kissed him back, with the same feelings and longings. We both deepened the kiss, never wanting it to end. After a few minutes though, we had to for lack of breath. He kneeled down onto the floor in front of me so we were at the same height.

"Senko I love you and you're more important to me than anything else. It hurts so much to say this but…you're right. I don't want you to be right but you are. Senko it hurts so much…" He was crying harder now, as was I. It did hurt, but it was for the better. I had to die instead of him, it was just right.

"Then one last kiss, before I begin the ceremony." We looked at each other, and kissed once more. This time is had more passion and longing. It was too much for us, we were lost in their kiss, wanting to forget everything but we couldn't. Wanting everything else to disappear but it didn't. We wanted to stay together forever, but we wouldn't.

We parted slowly, not wanting it to end. We looked at each other, breathing heavily, for a few minutes. "I better...get started." I said slowly standing up, hands still in Yuki's, which had gotten there during our kiss. He stood up as well, not allowing our hands to part.

"Tell me what to do." Yuki said with confidence in his voice. I nodded and answered. "Lay on your bed." And he did, but didn't let go of my hands once. I kneeled down next to his bed, my heart pounding in my chest, our hands still holding onto each other.

"Before I start this…I just want you to remember, not to forget me, but still move on." Yuki nodded unable to speak by this time, but the look in his eyes proved he would never forget and he just made a promise he would keep. "And one last thing….I love you, Yuki." Yuki managed to find his voice finally.

"I will always love you Senko and will never forget…Sen-chan." He decided to call me by my nickname for the last time. We smiled at each other one last time. Then I looked at our locked hands, took and deep breath, and lowered my head. With one last, longing glance at Yuki, I closed my eyes and started muttering all of the phrases needed for this to work. It was in another ancient language, so it took extra concentration to get it right.

I started to feel it, the ache in my lungs. Is this how Yuki always felt? I continued chanting. I could feel myself getting weaker and weaker, but I couldn't stop chanting for anything. I felt Yuki squeeze my hands for support. I was coming up on the final sentences. I could feel my mind leaving me, I could feel my heart slowing down. The last sentence…"Because I love him." With that, I felt my heart stop and my mind to leave, and I was dead.

XYuki's POVX

She was chanting in some language I've never heard of before. I just listened to her talking, my heart beating a thousand miles a second. After a while, I felt that constant ache I had from my disease leave. It felt easier to breathe now. I looked down at Senko, who was still chanting, but her breathing seemed to get shallower. I squeezed her hands for support and her voice became clearer.

I suddenly started to feel very sleepy. For a moment I panicked, but then I relaxed, if I died, it didn't matter as much anymore. Right before I feel asleep, I heard Senko's last words "Because I love him." With that, I was asleep, dreaming of a better day when everything could just go right.

XTo a random scene with Aktio!X (third person POV)

Akito sat in her/his (you know what, this whole akito gender thing…too confusing when writing stories so I don't know what gender akito was last time it was in this story, but I declare thee male) dark room, holding a book. It was the same book that he got from the secret library a month ago. He was idly flipping through the pages, as he had been the past hour, until he finally saw what he had been looking for. Even though he passed this page a thousand times all ready, it finally had what he was looking for, writing. It had been blank until a few seconds prior.

Hurriedly, he read through the page. A smirk grew on his face, as he read, but then it disappeared as he read the last paragraph.

This method of healing is rarely used, but does have thorough results. All sicknesses are ridden of, in this case, even the sickness, which can be more put as a curse, that has been passed through the boy's family is gone. The spirit of the rat is no longer inside of him, and it will not show itself again for some time.

Akito was furious, the rat thought he could get free, and he did to make it worse. He'd have to do something about this, but he couldn't. Yuki was now under no obligation to follow his orders, because to Yuki, Akito was no longer God. Furious, Akito through the book at the wall he was facing. It emitted a loud bang. This sound caused Hatori to come in to see if everything was ok.

"He's free…."Akito spat furiously. "The rat is free."

DUNDUNDUNNN! One last chapter peeples! That one will come up fast, its all planned out. Hahahha until the next chapter, Ja! Reviews would be appreciated but don't feel obligated to do so!
