Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

One shot. One hit. One scream.

The scream of a female.

It ringed threw the building…so loud…so fearful…so scared.

It was all happening too fast.

"Elena!" Reno screamed.

I simply nodded telling him to go get Elena and that I'd take the murderer.

Murderer…That's what we are…That's what the Turks are.

Murderers.

We jumped. Reno grabbed Elena and slid down on the elevator wire. I used my super-awesome teddy bear (haha-inside joke here ^.^) powers to jump towards the door way and kick the guy.

Wait a second…

I know this guy…

Zack Fair? What? He's dead…and didn't use a gun…

As I continued fighting the guy I found out it was actually a guy in a costume of Zack Fair…that and he kept screaming "I am Zack Fair! You can't kill me!" …Idiot. To end it quickly I pulled out a gun and shot the guy. He dead dead.

I went to meet up with Tseng only to find more guys trying to get in my way…

So….I killed them with my gun.

I finally got to Tseng's 'safe house' (His house can he actually bothered to buy one)

Reno was there.

With a very bad looking Elena. Who seemed to be unconscious.

"How is she?" I asked Reno.

Reno looked up and I could see he was close to tears.

Wow…

Poor Reno

"She was shot right above her right breast." Tseng told me. Okay so that's bad, but lucky it's not on the other side.

I nodded in acknowledgement.

"Rude who shot Elena?" President Rufus asked me. Opps…almost forgot he was here.

"Zack Fair." I said. I want to see their reaction.

They all just kind of stared at me.

"Rude…Zack Fair is dead…Do you need mental help?" Tseng told me. Haha.

"No. I meant it was a guy IN a Zack Fair costume." I explained.

"Wow…Did you eliminate of him?" Tseng asked me.

"Yes."

Silence.

Until…

"Reno you have been quite tonight." President Rufus stated.

"…" Is the response we got from Reno.

STOP TRYING TO BE ME RENO!

Just kidding!

Silence again.

"So anyone want pizza?" Tseng asked.

No one wanted to eat while Elena is in this state.

"…" Is what everyone said.

Silence again.

I turned my head when I heard the sound of coughing and gagging.

Elena was coughing up blood.

"Elena?" Reno asked her.

More blood.

"Elena!" Reno almost yelled.

Did I mention Elena was laying in Reno's lap?

Well she is.

After a minute she finally said responded.

"Yeah…Reno?" She asked him.

"You can't die 'Laney, You just can't!" Reno was telling her close to tears.

"I'm not goi-She started coughing up more blood.

Saw a tear fall.

"Elena!" He was definitely crying now.

It definitely wasn't looking good for Elena and we all knew it…

But her.

She stopped long enough to tell Reno one thing.

"Reno…I promise…This is a fight…I will not lose." Closing eyes…

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time
