Me: I am sorry for the crappy birth scene. I have never seen a baby born or read anything about it.

Faust: Then you should have allowed me to explain it.

Me: We'd be here all night. Anyways, here's chapter 19!

CHAPTER 19

The five boys decided to have lunch together, but an unexpected person sat at the table next to them. Jeanne-sama. She held a baby in her arms, it was cooing softly. "Michelangelo, my angel," she whispered to it. They all stared at her in horror. Another born follower. Literally. "What are you all staring at?" she asked. Then she set the baby gently on the table, it kicking it's little feet at the blacket that Jeanne wrapped around it. Jeanne chuckled at it's cuteness. Yoh then got out of his seat and sat next to Jeanne. "So his name is Michelangelo?" he asked. The albino girl nodded, not looking at Yoh. Lyserg tugged on Hao's poncho, trying to get his attention. "What's Yoh doing?" Lyserg asked. Hao shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe he just wants to see the baby," he answered.

Yoh asked Jeanne if he could touch it's cheek and she nodded. He pulled the baby to him, and smiled at it. The infant's little eyes were shut now, but it was still squirming. "You be a good boy to your mommy, okay? I know Jeanne-sama will take good care of you," he said. Jeanne's finally calm eyes now turned to those of someone who was caught. Hao saw it and smirked. Yoh then gave the baby back to the girl, and walked back to his original seat. Jeanne looked at the baby with sad eyes and thought to herself, 'Can I really do what must be done?'. Horo actually felt sorry for the girl. She lost a friend (he doesn't know that it was Marco's baby), she's a sinner to the eyes of her god, and is probably extremely depressed. "Horo, you shouldn't feel sorry for those kind of people." Ren said. Horo sighed. "I can't help it," Horo said.

Jeanne's finger went to her son's little hands, and smiled when he grasped it. Though it was still odd to most of the boys that the baby was greyish in color. But Horo and Ren dismissed it for Jeanne's genes (she is really pale!). Then once Jeanne ate and left, Hao explained it to them. "Yoh and Lyserg know this already, but do the two of you know that humans and ghosts can actually mate?" he asked. Ren absorbed this information and just waited silently for Hao to continue. Though Horo's face was... well, his eyes were the size of dinner plates, and he was totally silent. Then he gasped "OH MY GOD!". "Shh!" another customer said. Hao rolled his eyes. Could this boy be anymore immature and stupid? "Anyways... it appears that Jeanne used illegal witch craft to unite Marco in some clay or mud hardened body and they mated. And the pregnancy is only for three days maximum. Though I think is going to happen to that child is that Jeanne is going to kill it and bring Marco back," Hao said.

Ren huffed. "That's ridiculous Hao, why would someone go through all that for someone?" Ren asked. Yoh smiled. "Love can certainly change a person, and make them do such crazy things." Yoh said. Horo then fainted right there and then! Ren's eyes had that look that said, 'You're freaking pulling my leg, aren't you?'. Lyserg didn't look to surprised and neither did Hao. Yoh slurped his noodles, not minding that his friend Horo just fainted. Ren propped his boyfriend back up and lightly slapped him in the face. "Horo, horo, wake up," Ren said. About five minutes after, Horo's eyes began to flutter and he woke up. He remembered everything and realized something. "Isn't she catholic?" Horo asked. Everyone nodded. "But you still can't help but feel sorry for her, I mean... she's risking her sanity and being found out by the church so she can bring the one she loves back to life." Horo said.

Everyone thought about it and agreed with Horo's logic. Even though he's seen most of the time as an idiot, the blue haired boy could be smart sometimes. "Ah! All this thinking is making me hungry!" he yelled. Then again, I think I spoke to soon...

JEANNE

She was walking down the street with the baby in her arms. She rocked it, trying to make it fall asleep. The sun was still high in the sky. Good. She wanted all the time she could with her first born while she could. Then she felt a ice cold hand touch her shoulder and saw it was the spirit of Marco. "Jeanne, I know it's tough. But you must kill age his body, and destroy his soul. We can always have more," Marco said. Even though he was trying to comfort her, she still felt hot tears fall down her cheek. What about the baby's soul? Didn't Michelangelo deserve life? This was his body after all. But Marco... she wanted him back again. "Oh Marco, it's so hard. He's so beautiful, and he looks exactly like you. See, he has your nose." Jeanne pointed out.

Maco smiled and his cold hand extended to touch the infant's cheek. "Yes, and he has your delicate features as well." the blonde commented. Jeanne then started crying. "There's no other baby that looked as beautiful and perfect as him." Jeanne said. Marco pulled the girl into his arms (well, if ghosts can hit Yoh in the face... then they can hug!), and kissed her tears away. "Don't cry Jeanne, just spend your time wisely with our son." Marco said. She nodded and moved so she could stand up again. The baby then opened it's eyes and looked at Marco (faust: babies actually can't open their eyes for the first two weeks Feona/ Me: shut up!). It was filled with happiness. For some reason, the baby knew that Marco was it's dad. It's little hands reached out to Marco, making the man smiled. Jeanne laughed.

"He's so adorable. He gets it from his daddy," Jeanne said and walked on. She hoped though the sun wouldn't stop shining, ever. "Michelangelo, I love you," Jeanne said to her baby. The infant didn't understand of course, but then it started crying. She rocked it gently again, trying to shush it. Then when that didn't work, she then rocked him side to side slowly and sang. Soon Jeanne's voice soothed the baby and it calmed down. "Why are you going to kill him if you care about him so much?" a voice asked. The dedicated catholic girl looked to see it was that blue haired boy Horo. She sighed. "This is the only way to bring Mar- "I know, but that doesn't mean the baby should die in Marco's place. Marco knew serving you was a risk, and knew death would come. But look what he's doing?" Horo said, trying to get the naive girl to open her eyes.

She then wanted to believe that all he said wasn't true, but she couldn't push it out of her mind. "Oh, you're right," she said. Horo felt own tears coming to his eyes, but he fought them back. "Your name is Horo, right? I- I can't believe I'm going to do this. But if somthing goes wrong, will you please ask Asakura Yoh to take care of him?" the desperate girl asked. Horo nodded. She handed him the baby briefly so she could wipe the tears from her eyes and face. Then Horo gave the baby back, her face now smiling. "Thank you, Horo. For helping me make my desicion," and then she walked on to the grassy hill in the park inside Patch village. Horo sighed. It seems like only the five of them were getting a happy ending.

Ryu is dead, Faust still doesn't have his wife back, and Anna is so miserable that she isn't coming out of her room. Why was destiny nice to them, but not others? Even Jeanne is being pulled apart, trying to choose who should live? Her new born son Michelangelo, or the love of her young life, Marco? "I'm so lucky that it's not me, but I feel so... useless. People need help, but I can't do anything." the ainu said to himself. "Why do you worry about people you barely know?" a voice asked. He knew it was Ren. Horo sighed and laughed. "I don't know, I guess it's just the way I am." he said. He could see Jeanne sitting under the tree, smiling down at her baby. "Why can't everyone have a happy ending? It's not fair,"...
