I'm afraid that I may not be a good authoress…
Link: Seriously? But you have a lot of reviews!
Even so… I still think I'm not that great at writing stories.
Roy: Don't let this get you down. Not now anyways, who knows there are a lot of people that may like this so far.
… I don't know if I'm convinced yet or not. On to chapter 15.

Chapter 15
The harsh wind blew against Piper's face as she was being dragged from her lovers, Roy and Pit. Zelda was in front of her, trying to transform while running, and with some success she managed to change into Sheik just in time.
"Sheik! Boy am I glad that you're actually Zelda!"
"Look now isn't the time for this. Save it for when we make it out of this ordeal alive."
Piper went silent as the wind played a melody that she was well too familiar with, it was the semi peaceful melody of death and life. She was being suffocated since she couldn't stop to catch her breath and her heart was breaking as each step separated her from the two heroes.
"Piper!! Sheik wait!!" shouted a boy's voice. Piper looked back and saw Roy running as fast as he could to catch up to the speeding duo.
"ROY!! Sheik please wait. That's Roy back there!"
The grip that held Sheik and Piper together was gone and Piper could catch her lost breath. She gasped as Roy took her into his arms and held her tight.
"Where's Pit?"
"He's back there, don't worry Meta Knight is with him. I'll protect you along side with Sheik."
"I was afraid," whispered Piper as the tears returned after a few minutes of refueling themselves. Roy held her close and let the tears soak into his scarlet cape that hanged behind him.
"Don't be. I'll never let anything bad happen to you."
Just after Roy had said this, the ground rumbled with anger and suddenly the original escape route was cut off by a fissure. Piper's eyes widened with fear and pain.
"Oh come on! Give me a break here!"
"There's only one thing to do… we have to jump over the fissure," said Sheik as he did his vanishing trick and motioned the duo to hurry up. Roy and Piper ran to where the fissure was, Piper shook her head.
"What's wrong?"
"There's no way I can jump over that, I can't even jump to catch a baseball without hurting myself," replied Piper as she backed away from the fissure.
"We're not backing out of this, not yet. Not until it's all over with!"
"Roy! I can't, not without getting myself killed. I have to stay back."
"I'm not letting you stay over here, not with Roxas probably behind us now!" yelled Roy, his voice sounded painful and harsh as the wind whipped against his now colorless skin.
"Hold on you two, I'm coming to get you! I'm not letting you guys argue over this."
"Hurry Sheik. Who knows where Roxas is!"
Sheik vanished back over to Piper and Roy's side of the fissure and vanished them both back to the side he was originally on. Piper once again was dragged by Sheik to escape the horrifying scene that will haunt her for the rest of her life.
"Roy, why did you come back? I thought you said you would fight with Pit," asked Piper as she looked back and saw that the part of the mansion was blown up.
"Pit requested me to come back as fast as I could to live another day with you."
"Pit did that, for me? And Roy? Thank you Pit. If you live I'll kiss you for this but kill you for leaving yourself in danger."
Sheik, going at the speed of light was starting to slow down as the dust and debris from the fissure cleared up a little bit. Roy and Piper looked at each other as they were away from the mansion, and that's when Roy saw what Piper had seen when she asked him that question.
"Pit! Oh god, please tell me you're okay," thought Roy as his cerulean eyes stared through the dust to see that part of the mansion was not only blown into pieces but it was as though it had been melted by magma.
"Pit… no… I'm not staying here!"
Piper escaped Sheik's grip and darted toward where the fissure was, and froze… she took a deep breath before she got ready to jump over the fissure.
"Here goes nothing."
She jumped and found herself at the other side with ease. She looked to see her wings but she saw that one of her wings were torn. She turned her attention back to the ruins and ran toward the part of the mansion.
The limestone bricks that made the mansion walls were crushed into dust and debris, and seeing this scene reminded Piper of the graveyard where her parents were buried. She stepped on the remaining tiles of the once pleasant battle arena but she found Meta Knight and Pit lying on the ground.
"PIT!! META KNIGHT!!" screamed Piper as she ran up to them both and shook them to wake them up, but they remained cold and looked lifeless. The crystal tears slipped past her eyes and they fell onto the angel and metal puffball as she felt herself falling into a deep hole of depression. "Pit… M-Meta Kn-Knight. I-I-I'm sorry!!"
"Hehehe… interesting, you have feelings for this young angel? I shall have fun with this."
Piper looked up and saw the source of the voice, Roxas, a shadow of Meta Knight's past. She felt her face burning with rage and she felt like attacking him with everything she had.
She felt Pit's body move, she then looked and saw that he was wake.
"Piper, get out of here."
"No… I won't leave you here. I'll battle Roxas and take care of this myself!"
She stood up, her hair was being blown all over the place as she took out her sword that she had obtained earlier.
"You still have that sword you-"
"Yep. And I intend to kill Roxas with this blade and revenge you both!" yelled Piper as she flew into the air where Roxas was and that's when the showdown began…

Roy: So I have a crush on a girl with a short temper?
Pretty much.
Roy: Wow that sucks so bad!
Pit: Please read and review soon! She may finish this story soon!
