Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Um... random declarations of love. I think the last lot went along the lines of 'I will always love you' 'I can't live without your love' then 'Our love will not fade with time' ^^ Corny but cute an incomprehensible. Excellent))

"Um... Because I have no coat?" Brooklyn asked, raising an eyebrow. "And You didn't want me to freeze?" He eyed Bryan's much bigger frame. "Are you sure that one of your coats will fit me?" He asked.

Kai gave Taki a pained look. "Now really isn't the time." He told him, glaring darkly at Ralef. "Please don't leave?" He asked quietly.

Fayina smiled. "Do you really believe that?" She asked Sacha.

"Always." He replied, kissing her on her cheek. He noticed a salty taste on his lips and sighed. "Please don't cry." He asked.

"I can't help it."

((Yes fluff. Aren;t you glad it's in Russian? ^^ but otherwise are saying goodbyes -forever-))


"Except it might slip off and fall in the snow and then will be really cold." Brooklyn told him, grinning. He yawned, a lot like the kitten in Kisa's arms. "If we're leaving at midnight I probably should get home and have a nap before packing and evading Garland... somehow." He told them.

~

Kai smirked. "I think there might be a few rules against that." He told Taki. He shut his eyes for a second before opening them again and getting eye contact with Taki again. "Do you promise you'll be here when it's finished?" He asked nervously, aware of just how pathetic he sounded.

Sacha smiled despite himself. He nuzzled Fayina's hair, knowing that despite it's unfamiliar texture and colour it was the person he loved. "I love you." He told her firmly before pulling away slowly. "I always will."

Fayina let out a sob and leant against Sacha's hand against her cheek. "Me too" she told him quietly.

Sacha nodded and stood up. He turned his head toward Ralef and nodded slightly before looking back down at Fayina. "Ya tebya lyublyu. Do svidaniya." He said with a small smile.

Fayina bit her lip, trying not to cry again. I have to be able to do this

Brooklyn grinned. "Can't you two at least pretend to be happy?" He asked them, turning away and beginning the walk back to his place. "We're going to find Kai." He told them over his shoulder. He noticed Kisa still playing with the kitten. "Bye squirt."

~

Fayina looked at Taki like he was coming to take Sacha away from her. Why do I have to do this? she wondered helplessly. She understood why Sacha thought that it had to be done now but at the same time she wanted just a little bit more time with him.

Any time at all would have been several blessings at once.

Fayina started when she felt Sacha's lips on her forehead. She looked up at him, tears blurring her vision. She didn't know what to say. What was she supposed to say at a time like this? So instead she remained silently looking up at Sacha.

Sacha broke the eye contact and looked over at Taki. I hope all is forgiven he thought finally before giving Fayina a small nudge in his direction.

Fayina kept her face blank, using the training Sacha had given her to try and hide how much she was hurting. She couldn't control her tears, however, and wrapped her arms around Sacha's waist one last time. "Я буду всегда любить Вас. Пожалуйста помните это." She said, burying her face into his clothes and trying to imprint every detail of him into her memory. "Пожалуйста. Никогда не забудьте. " She said as she slowly pulled away from him and backed toward Taki.

Sacha watched her walking away and bit his lip, feeling the tears that had been wanting to fall since Fayina had walked into the room "Я никогда не буду." He assured her. "Смерть не будет изменяться, насколько я люблю Вас. Это выходит за пределы смерти. " He told her before switching back to English. "Please remember that." He asked.

Fayina smiled sadly at her own words being repeated back to her. "Всегда" She assured him. "Always."

((Hehe. Welcome the event of Russian characters! I doubt there'll be anymore Russian. You do get the semi-gist of what they're saying though, don't you?))

Fayina reached to take Taki's hand, holding it tightly as she followed him out of the room, not looking back. If she did she didn't think she could have left. Please remember that I'll always love you She thought sadly, envisioning Sacha as he used to be, before the air of defeat had come over him.

Sacha wiped his eyes silently, never taking his eye's off Fayina's back. When she had left the room he turned to Ralef. "What do you want me to do?" He asked calmly.

Kai blinked at the change in mood before looking over at Ralef to see what he wanted. I hope Ki-Fayina's all right

((I have to change the phonetic Russian to cryllic when we post it- Mostly it was saying that 'I'll always love you. Don't forget' and similar such things. Online translators are the bomb))

Kai nodded and followed Ralef quietly, avoiding looking at Sacha. Is he really going to die because of me? He wondered as they stepped into the second lab. He suppressed a shudder as memories from the day before flooded his mind.

Sacha followed them silently, staring straight ahead. I'm sorry Fayina he thought sadly, glancing behind himself at the closed door that she was behind before the door of the second lab closed in his face, putting another barrier between them. I'm sorry

~

Fayina let out a sob and threw her arms around Taki, holding him tightly and crying into his clothes. "He's gone." She managed to say through sobs. She held on to Taki tighter, unable to truly comprehend that she'd never see Sacha again. "He's gone." She said again miserably.

((Well how many people will be able to read Russian anyways? It's there for effect and gives them... I dunno... something else... They could be talking about green beans for all any non-Russian person would know. Which I find funny))

Sacha's eyes narrowed as he turned to face Ralef. "Since when have you ever cared about the wellbeing of someone who doesn't exist?" He asked quietly. He looked around the room. "Where do I have to go?" He asked.

Kai's breathing deepened as he tried to control his panic. He did not want to be there. He looked at Sacha. How can he be so calm? Kai wondered with a hint of awe. He trusted that Taki wouldn't leave him somewhere that would prove to be too dangerous.

Besides, he had to look after someone else.

Fayina adjusted her grip so she held Taki around his neck. She buried her head into the join between his neck and his shoulders and tried to stifle the sobs that racked her body. He's really gone she thought miserably.

Rei opened his eyes slowly, looking at his clock and cursing when he realised that he hadn't gotten as much sleep as he intended to. He shut his eyes again, trying it will himself to sleep.

It soon became evident that that wasn't going to happen.

Rei cursed audibly as he rolled out of bed and staggered to his en suite. Hopefully a shower would make him feel like he hadn't only had five hours of sleep.

((*cracks up laughing* That is pure pure love))

Sacha nodded and began to make his way over to the cylinder, a feeling of futility and finality washing over him. Is this really it? he wondered as he reached the doctors there. He looked at the tube, a dead feeling rising in his stomach, nothing he did mattered anymore. "Am I going in there?" He asked flatly.

Kai looked at the nurse, his eyes widening in recognition. "You again?" he asked quietly.

~

Fayina followed him like a lost puppy. "Where are we going to go?" She asked hollowly. "Is there anywhere we can go?" She reached up to hold Taki's hand again, afraid to go without some sort of human contact. I want Sacha she thought miserably.

~

Rei reached the tiled floor of the en suite and quickly stripped himself, stepping into the shower without looking at his reflection. He didn't want to see himself.

He sighed in satisfaction as the warm water hit his body, he may not have felt alive but this was helping. I have to remember to say hi to Taki today he thought as he began to micro sleep in the shower.
