I'm listening to some song I haven't heard since the 90's. Saber is disturbed with my cousin. I'm trying to some up with some way to wrap this chase up. I had a song fic that went with this but it sucked so I'm not gonna put it up. I'm expecting to wrap this situation up this chapter and then finish the "story" in the next chapter. Then I'll have an epilogue. I'll probably make a sequel, unless you guys beg me not to. I wouldn't think my writing was THAT bad, though!

Deveann's POV
I blinked open my eyes. The wold around was hazy. The first thing I saw was Max's concerned expression. "Ughnn…" I moaned sitting up. "Did I fall asleep out here on the porch?" I asked, groggily.
"Yes, you did. Come on, we're leaving." She helped me up.
"Where are we going?" Then yesterday came flooding back; I nearly fell back down.
"We're finding Kisha." I shook my head.
"No, It's no use. Kisha wouldn't come back. She's too worried about our safety. Besides, she's probably out of the country by now." Max glared at me.
"If she won't come back of her own accord, we'll use force." Then she grinned. "And the only way I would have trouble finding her is if she was orbiting the Earth." I smiled. I wasn't sure it would be so easy to find her, though. "Do you know what she smells like?"
"We're going to sniff her out?" I cried.
"Do you or don't you?" She growled back. I nodded.
"She smells like candy. She was just in a fight so she'll faintly smell like blood and it rained last night, I doubt she washed her clothing or herself since then so she'll smell like rain as well." She smirked. "You don't seriously think it'll be so easy to sniff her out? I mean, first you have to get my Eraser form under control."
"You're looking for your mate, I'd hardly think it a hard task." She shrugged.
"I suppose you have… a point."
Kisha's POV
Kisha… Kisha… Kisha, you lazy bum, wake up!
I shrieked and fell out off my branch. I heard me crash and stood. I brushed the leaves off of myself. "That would've hurt!" I screamed, putting my hands on my hips.
You need to keep moving. They're coming for you.
"They, who's they? And you make it sound like I'm being hunted." I scoffed.
They are your friends and you are being hunted. They're sniffing you out.
"You're kidding." I grabbed my backpack and ran as fast as I could. I stumbled once or twice when my legs tingled from recovery of numbness. "How fast could he be going?!" I murmured as Ahsik urged me to go faster.
Max is guiding him.
"Oh no." I whispered. I heard a faint flapping. I looked behind me, bad move. I fell. Numb again. "CRAP!" Max was coming for me, she must have brought Deveann. I got up just in time to be picked up and nearly crushed. "I can't breathe!" I screamed. I was put down. Deveann looked into my eyes.
"You can't escape me, we're connected." He pulled me close and pressed our wrists together at the vein where you check someone's pulse to symbolize that we share blood. I shook my head furiously and stepped out of his reach.
"No! Be connected to me from a safe distance! I couldn't bare it if something happened to you! I'm just a danger to you!" I stomped my foot on the ground and shut my eyes, knowing that, numb or not, I was
crying. I continued to shake my head as I shrieked. "My life is going to end in, what, two years?! There's no point in you sticking around to watch me suddenly fall in mid walk!" I'd thought about my death over and over again. "Now let me leave!" I wiped the tears from my eyes to look at Deveann. He glared at me but didn't move. "I told you to go!" I hollered pointing at the way I'd come. He grabbed my arms tightly, of course, I couldn't feel it but the mere gesture was shocking enough to make me gasp.
"I am telling you that I am not leaving." He hissed to me. "I'm not leaving you need to cope with that fact, rationally. I love you; you love me. I don't want to spend my life with you, I fully intend to. You and I are going to grow up and get married and you aren't going to die because you've worked to hard and too long to just die! We're all big boys and girls back at home, we can take care of ourselves! You
are coming home with me, I don't care who is most dominant after that point but right now I am the leader and you are my Kisha and you are frigging grounded! Are we clear?!" I'd never seen Deveann so mad. I was stunned. And he'd never taken control of a situation this way. I giggled at his "manly" effort. I hugged him and nodded into his chest.
"Hee hee, if you promise to stick up for yourself like this more often, I will. Promise not to get killed and I'll stay until I die." I still had no doubt in my mind of my imminent doom but was now prepared
to face it.
By the way, Kisha. Yes, you are right in saying that the heart is tainted, but noticeably, yours is less than most. You should listen to it more often, it's much more honest than you gave it credit for.
CHEESY! Gawsh, where am I getting this crap?! Anyway, next chapter wraps up the story so it's all gonna end soon! Yay sorta! Kisses!
