DOM'S P.O.V.

There I was, sitting in my room, on the floor, absorbed within my own thoughts when I heard Neal calling my name. He got to my room and started calling out.

'If you don't get out in 10 I'll…' he paused here, trying to find something decent for a threat. Whilst he was thinking though he opened the door and came in uninvited. Mean person… he stopped and looked around for me. You know, sometimes, my idiot of a cousin can't see what is before his eyes.

'You'll do what?' I asked standing up.

'I don't know what I do, but I will certainly try to keep you alive for as long as I could,' he said and dragged me to his room. Out of all the threats he could have come up with, that one had to be the worst. Why couldn't they just kill me and be done with it all?

My cousin-in-law was sitting there calmly, as thought she had been waiting for us for about two seconds. Although, with the noise Neal made, she probably had been doing something else and only got ready when she had heard Neal dragging me.

'Sit Dom,' he ordered and my body responded from habit and I sat down. For some odd rather disturbing moment Neal had reminded me of Lord Raoul… Really disturbing…

I sat up straight until I was bored with it and then went back to slouching and stared at the roof. I really didn't want to be here pretending that I cared about the world around me. Neal said something to Yuki and I heard her laugh slightly in return. Then he remembered why he had brought me from my daydreaming and poked me.

'What?' I said annoyed. Well, I had a reason to be. He had just poke me and woke my up again from my daydreaming. I was daydreaming now so that I wouldn't do it in battle, at least I had a good reason. Great reason in my opinion!

'I would like to tell you something,' he started to say and I had to roll my eyes. Would my cousin ever stop being so melodramatic?

Or would he ever join the players?

'That's nice,' I replied and looked away again. I wasn't in the mood for this all. I never was unless I had just woken up and still thought about Kel.

Then he said something that I wasn't expecting though I really should have been.

'Dom, how you feel about being godfather to the child Yuki and I are expecting?' he said and I couldn't help but grin at him. There would finally be mini meatheads to turn on him! And Kel and I…

I stopped and my grin faded. Kel and I would never happen any more. I sighed and looked away again.

'I can't,' I said.

'Why not?' Yuki asked me whilst I could tell that Neal was wishing that she wasn't going to go there.

'Because,' I started, allowing my face to show what I was truly thinking, 'do you really want someone who is practically useless? Would you want your first child learning that when their world turns upside down slightly, to just give up?' I ended up yelling at Neal.

I froze when I saw that he had snapped. And he wasn't just yelling, he was screaming at me.

'If you stop your moping you will be able to get over this all. You are just being an idiot, Kel had friends other than you. Don't think that the rest of us weren't affected,' he yelled and I punched him. He didn't even flinch.

'How would you feel if Yuki was torn away from you?' I yelled back, now I was starting to lose it as well.

'I would be doing something to help! Not sitting here crying like the idiot you are!' I was determined to kill him now.

'And you think I have an option over this all? I am stuck here when all I want to do is go into Scanra and tear it apart piece by piece until I find her!' I yelled back.

'When I see her again, if it be here or in the black god's realm, I am going to tell her of all you have done and then tell her not to bother with you anymore!'

My jaw dropped, had I seriously become that? Never mind, he was still going…

'And once I have, so help me, I am going to make your life a nightmare, I am going to call on as many gods as I can without being killed again and make sure that you aren't allowed near her!'

My jaw snapped shut and my eyes narrowed. I walked out before I drew my sword and challenged him to a duel to the death. But I still acknowledged that I had to change my ways.

I smirked. Challenge accepted.

That was really fun to write!

Probably written really bad though... Oh well. I had fun and that is what matters :) And it is really long (ok. Longer...)

I NEED MORE REVIEWS THOUGH TO CONTINUE! I ONLY HAD ONE LAST CHAPTER (Although most of you live in America and yeah... If you live in Australia then tell me about what you think of the politics :) )
