Rock stood out side of Deads church (That she recently re-decorated). She had sworn she saw Black gold saw snooping around by the church so went out side. No way was Gold saw touching Dead and Akuma! Rock promised to protect them and damn it she would! Dead came out side. "Come on Rock...She wont come back...she's probably looking for Strength..." Dead wrapped her arms around Rocks waist lightly scratching her. Rock looked at Dead and saw the most beautiful thing ever. Dead was smiling. Not a dark,crazy sadistic smile, a nice kind smile. " Hey Dead. You should smile more often...You look cute."

"Come on!" With that note Rock ushered inside.

Akuma was sleeping peacefully in a 'nest' Dead had made out of soft scraps and old clothes she didn't need. " Ne, Dead she's really cute..." Rock walked over to her and bent down. Dead chuckled and bent down next to Rock. "Yeah, She is." Akuma opened one of her pale green eyes and stared at both of her parents.

"Unlike us, she'll have us to love her while she grows up..." Deads words hung in the air...

"Yeah... She's lucky..." Rock whispered hanging her arm around Dead. They both knew they were born from pain and hurt. Which is why this child was out of place. No one that young could hate as all they do is eat and sleep. Rock also knew one day she would have to return home to where ever she came from... This time couldn't come too late or Dead might become way to attached to her. Separating her from Dead could be a very risky move... Like separating a child from their mother... Especially if it was too late.

"Dead? You do know one day she'll have to go back... Don't you?" Dead looked over at her Black rock shooter.

"Yes...I know..." She then looked down sadly.

"It's ok Dead... Until that day, we will be the best parents we can... Won't we?"

"Oh Rock...Of course we will!" Dead tackled Rock to the ground covering her abdomen in wet kisses. Rock laughed quietly and intertwined their fingers together... Her free hand stroked Deads back.

Akuma looked over at her guardians and gave a confused look. 'What are they doing?' Was probably going through her head. Watching as Dead assaulted Rock with more kisses and licks she was probably also thinking ' Why!? Why now and here?!' She curled back down into her nest and closed her eyes. 'Who are these people...?Are they my real parents? I don't remember anything until the woman with horns found me...' She shrugged it off and returned to her sleep.

Rock and Dead had stopped their business and were now just cuddling. Rock slumped against the wall stroking Dead, while Dead herself was stroking Rocks stomach, leaving small faint red lines. They had never been so peaceful before... It was nice. Dead looked up and Rock, her eyes half open. "I really do love you..." Rock looked down and smiled.

"I love you too..." Dead crawled up to meet Rocks eyes... Nothing needed to be said in that one moment. Dead chuckled and pressed her lips against Rocks. Rock was shocked at first but soon closed her eyes and melted deep into their first kiss. They pulled apart and looked at each other, Then diving back in for another kiss. Dead slid her tongue into Rocks mouth shocking her a bit but soon using her own tongue deep into Deads mouth. Both pulled apart for oxygen soon after. "Rock...y-you're amazing..." Dead panted out sliding back down Rocks body.

"Heh...you think? Well, You're pretty good your self..." Rock said while rubbing Dead's back. She chuckled and kissed her stomach. Looking over at Akuma both smiled and snuggled close together...
