Part 4 Scene: Heimdall Woods Day 2 Approx. 10:30 A.M.

Through the clearing, he saw Sheena running at him, full speed, her cards drawn, ready to fight. Regal was confused; why would Sheena be fighting me over this? She has no place. And as much as I'd like to hurt her, I can't…

As she approached, she readied what appeared to be a Pyre Seal. Regal simply slapped the card away and lightly flipped Sheena to the ground and ran on.

From here, he could see Zelos, so he called out to him. Obviously, Zelos heard him because he recoiled a bit. "Don't go anywhere, Zelos! I need to explain!" He slowed to a stop and sat next to Zelos, pulling him a little closer. "Why are you upset?"

"You should know…" he replied.

"Of course, but I need to hear what you heard."

"Something about abandoning your love for me that I didn't even know you had!" Zelos was becoming even more upset.

"Zelos, there's a reason. I had a dream last night where Alicia visited me. She said she really HAD talked to you and only wanted me to be happy. She told me the only way that'd happen was to aband—"

"Abandon your love for me, right?"

"No for HER!"

"Then why'd you say MY name?" Regal could see that Zelos had understood the gist of what he'd meant.

"Because. Zelos there must have been a pause somewhere there because Alicia had asked me who else I loved. And you're the only one I DO love." He looked away a bit shamed, for why, he didn't know. "But now you must hate me, am I correct?" He asked, a bit saddened.

"If you came out here to apologize and explain this stuff to me, how COULD I hate you? You loved me enough to find out why exactly I was sad and make things right." He hugged Regal. "Fact is, I love you, too." At this he kissed Regal on the cheek.

Regal blushed madly, thinking of what might happen next. And then…

"POWER SEAL PINION!"

Without either of them knowing, Sheena had stuck a card to Regal's back and yelled the…incantation?…which caused Regal to lurch forward to his stomach, laying flat on the ground.

"Sheena, stop!" Zelos shouted. "Relax! He explained everything; I'm fine now, no need to attack Regal anymore." He drew his sword. "But you…You fed me LIES! You told me he'd never love me back like I loved him. All this time you had me BELIEVING that and now it turns out to be your own jealousy!?"

"J-jealous? Of-of you and Re-rega-regal? I-impossible! No way I'd be jealous of you!" She was completely lying through her teeth. She was ENTIRELY jealous.

"Face it, Sheena, it's over between what we used to have. Never again will that happen."

"What do you mean, Zelos?"

"I mean I'll never date you again. But you should consider yourself lucky; I usually don't give second chances at friendship." He re-sheathed his sword and turned to Regal, who was now sitting up. "Regal, will you…Will you go out with me?" ((Yeah Zelos, it's kind of already been established…))

Regal stood. "Of course, Zelos. I'd never say no to you." He put his finger under Zelos's chin to lift it up and placed a soft kiss on his lover's lips. "Now come on, you two, we have to get back so we're not late for the duel."
