My Angel

YAY! I have reviews!

Link: you only have 4 reviews... doesn't that bother you?

Yeah but be quiet! You'll blow my story.

Roy: Since when is this your story?

Since I began writing it!

Pit: Time for chapter 6!

Chapter 6

Night soon drew closer and closer as Pit and Piper made their way back to the mansion. The stars glittered with glee, and the duo's wings began to glow brightly.

"Hey Pit, are our wings suppose to glow?" asked Piper as her black seemed to glitter with the stars. Pit just looked the other way, hoping that Piper wouldn't see that he was blushing.

"Uh, I'm not sure. Anyway so when is the dance again?"

"Let me think, 2 more weeks. Why you ask?"

"No reason. Just curious I guess."

They continued toward the mansion when Pit was about to open the door. Piper just looked sadly at the mansion. The angel sighed and went to see what was wrong with his friend.

"Hey what's wrong now?"

"... Nothing. Everything's fine!" quickly said Piper who was now putting on her hood that was on her sweater. She opened the door and ran to the library. Pit followed. Piper threw books upon books on the table that laid near a bookshelf full of books of crimes and records.

"Hall of Fame, Double Crossed, How To Kill? Piper are you just reading random things?"

"Nope, if someone dies it's always recorded. So if Snake died then Dr. Mario recorded it right?"

"I suppose so."

"And the fights begin tomorrow so I need to find out as much as I can about everyone here. And the Double Cross book is a book on many murder crimes that were comitted and no one was charged for it."

"Why the heck would you read a book on crimes?"

There was a moment of silence as Piper got off the ladder to reach the highest shelf. Her eyes stared into Pit's ocean blue eyes. She grabbed the books, and checked them out.

"I'm going to find out how Snake died and who murdered him. I'll find out and I think I have a suspicion."

Piper dragged Pit into their room and the she began to stare at the mirror. She held her sword up to her reflection.

"I know you're there! Come on out you coward and show yourself!"

Within minutes a shadow appeared and was now standing next to Piper. The person that was there was as black as a shadow and looked as mysterious as one. Pit gasped and ran away.

"Pit come back!"

"I can see that my eyes were not lying after all," said the shadow as it placed a hand on the young girl's shoulder. Piper felt as though she was frozen in time, she couldn't move and she was afraid.

"What do you want? I've been seeing you, who are you?"

"Piper! Are you okay!"

Piper looked around to see Roy and Marth with Pit, with worried expressions on their faces. Piper then no longer felt the hands of the shadow that was cast out of the mirror. The trio of boys ran toward her.

"Piper! Are you really okay?" asked Marth looking at young girl that was crying into his sapphire cape. Piper just shook her head and cried some more. Marth and Pit left the room leaving Roy to make sure she was okay.

"Piper..."

"Can anyone just tell me why did Snake have to die?"

Roy looked down at the floor in defeat. He remembered that he cried as much as Piper is when he lost his father. His eyes began to water.

"He did it to... protect you."

Piper quickly looked at Roy and looked back down at the floor.

"Yeah right. Why would he do that? I'm just a kid who wants a friend in the world."

"He did it because well, he saw something special in you that made him be more careful."

"How do you know?" asked Piper as her tears were disappearing. Roy smiled faintly.

"I spied on him before he was killed. He was saying to Pikachu how special he thought you were. It made me cry. He knew something odd was going to happen but he decided to protect you at any cost from who killed him."

"He knew? I guess his cost for protecting me was dying huh?"

"Don't let it get to you though. I know what you're going through. I lost my mother and father when I was only 13 and since then I was alone until I met Marth and Link. Things will get better. I promise."

Piper was now sitting on the bed looking at the ceiling. Her eyes glittering as the stars appeared on the ceiling. Roy then smiled broadly.

"I have to show you something though. Marth, Pit and Link are meeting us there okay?"

"Where are we going?"

"You'll see," replied Roy as he grabbed Piper's hand and they ran to the darkness that was outside. The stars were out and the moon was nowhere to be seen.

"Do you know what stars do every so often?"

"No... why?"

"I'll tell you. Stars fall and you get to make one wish on it. Tonight is the night that happens."

"You brought me... to wish?"

The swordsman nodded and he pointed up above to see two falling stars. Piper squealed with joy. She clapped her hands together and whispered something that only Roy could hear.

"I wish... this moment would last forever," whispered Piper. She glanced up at Roy and smiled. As she smiled she said, "Roy if you had one wish in the whole world what would it be?"

"I would wish for... someone who cared about me. Someone I can call a true friend, maybe even a true lover. You know what I mean?"

Piper nodded and she got closer to Roy. He glanced down on the young girl who was resting her head against his chest. Tears streaming down her cheek. Roy held her in his arms waiting for the perfect moment to say something. Piper stole the part.

"Roy... I care for you as much as I cared for anyone. Your special too, that I'll never forget. Will... will you care for me too?"

"Of course. I'll care for you as my own. We'll be together, side by side until the end."

The stars kept on falling as the two held each other in warm, embracing arms that never seemed to let go. Link, Pit and Marth found Roy and Piper holding each other. They walked back to the mansion.

"Let's not tell Roy that we saw him and Piper together okay?" asked Link, everyone nodded. The trio walked up to their dorms, leaving Roy and Piper watching the stars fall... treasuring the moment forever.

I wish I called it done now while I have the chance!

Every Smasher: WHAA! YOU WANT TO CALL IT QUITS NOW!

Now now I didn't say that. I mean the moment is perfect for a happy ending but unfortunately this story doesn't end here.

Marth: Th-there's more?

Yes. Please read and review, to those who truely understand this moment. If you do then you'll know when true love has made it's way to you. I think anyway.
