Me: This story is almost over…
Nanaha: it's too short
Me: I know…
Nanaha: we don't own Mephiles
Me: ONWARD WITH THE STORY!
It was starting to get dark out. Mephiles and Nanaha were waiting for Haze to come, so far there was no sign of him.
Nanaha passed back and forth "Is he even coming?"
"He will…" Mephiles gripped the gun tighter.
"Mephiles what if he-AHHHHHH!"
Nanaha fell to the ground, Mephiles ran over to her.
"You're such a bad bad girl…running away from me…tsk tsk…"
He looked up to see Haze standing on top of a street lamp, his finger on the button.
Haze smirked "You never kept your side of the deal…so I'm just going to have to do it…"
He jumped down and threw the switch to the ground, breaking it in two.
"You are heartless…why would you do this…"
"It's fun to watch others suffer…now it's your turn…"
A fireball appeared in his hand and threw it at Mephiles. He picked Nanaha up and jumped out of the way. Mephiles placed her on the top of a building.
"You stay here…"
She nodded as Mephiles jumped down, turning into his crystalline form. Haze threw another fireball at him, only for him to catch it and throw it back, hitting Haze right in the face. He staggered back a bit from the hit, and fell. "I hope…you know…she never really loved you…she's playing you…just like a card game…"
Mephiles watched as he slowly got up "That's not true…" he growled back.
Haze started to smoke, and was soon engulfed in flames "Well…of course it is…she told me herself…"
Mephiles growled, and spotted the gun on the ground. "…I don't believe you…" he slowly started to inch closer to it. Haze saw this, but didn't show he did.
"I'm just trying to warn a friend before you have your poor heart shattered…" he said in the most sincere voice he could "Trust me it's not the best feeling…"
Mephiles was getting closer " I don't think it's possible for you to have your heart broken…seeing as you don't have one…or a soul…"
"Oh please stop! Your complements are too much!"
"Those weren't complements…"
"Whatever…" he vanished in a puff of smoke, appearing in front of Mephiles, the gun in hand. "Hm…I wonder why you want this so much…we should test it out to see what happened" He pointed it at Mephiles and pulled the trigger.
He closed his eyes and waited for it to hit. But it never did. Mephiles slowly opened his eyes again. The bullet was right in front of him, a sky blue glow around it. He looked back to see Nanaha, hovering as two black bat-like wings kept her aloft. "H-Haze…"
The flames on him disappeared "Y-you….may have already t-taken something I l-love…p-please…d-don't take another…" she let the bullet fall to the ground "Y-you…weren't created to do all of this H-Haze…"
He clenched his fist, looking from Mephiles to Nanaha. Haze growled at pointed the gun at her "WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW!" There was a pop and Nanaha felt to the ground
"NANAHA!" Mephiles ran to her, Haze smirked.
"A-are you o-okay?" she looked up at him, and lifted her right wing. There was a hole straight through it. The bullet had gone through a bone and was bleeding profusely. "Oh my god…a-are you going to b-be okay?"
"I…I don't k-know…" she laid her head back down, Mephiles turned to Haze and growled.
"You monster! You heartless monster! You two are practically family! How could you do this to such an innocent soul?"
He just laughed "If I can recall…you were like me a few years ago weren't you?" he walked closer "…A heartless killer…driven by revenge and power lust…not showing any mercy…Tell me…Mephiles the Dark…is that not you?"
"No…it's not me…I've changed…"
"Sure you have…the minute someone angers you…you'll just click back to the monster you were…and no one will be able to stop you…"
Nanaha weakly looked up 'D-don't listen to him…he's trying to get into your head…' Mephiles looked back her 'Don't worry…'
Haze was now right in front of Mephiles "Instead of staying here…why don't you just crawl back to where you came from…"
Mephiles looked back at him "Heh…I'm sorry I can't do that…I made a promise I intend to keep…" he kicked the gun out of Haze's hand "Nanaha! Now!"
She got up as quick as she could, her hands glowing. He tried to move but noticed she had him in her telekinetic grip. He growled as the gun flouted down into Mephiles' hands. Haze felt a strong force pulling him down; he gave it all his strength to stay up, but was pulled to the ground.
" I promised to do whatever I had to do to keep Nanaha and our child safe…" Mephiles pointed the gun at Haze's head "…Now…I shall do just that…" The gun was fired, Haze's body went limp. Nanaha released it as she fell to the ground. Mephiles turned back to normal, dropped the gun, and turned to her.
"We better get you to the hospital…" he picked her up
"Mephiles…what if he killed the baby…" she buried her face into his chest and started to cry
"…Everything's going to turn out okay…don't worry…I promise..."
He started to run, hoping for the best outcome from all this.
Me: Not one of my best chaps…
Nanaha: I think it's pretty decent
Me: one more chap and this is done
Nanaha: I like the next chap :3 R&R!
