"I'm not asking for an apology...!" She half-shouted, or atleast she tried to; the words barely reached an octave above a murmur, and despite the cool calmness she always held, the silent surety that everything would be alright, she was starting to panic; you could see it in her eyes, in the way that her small hands where holding on to his, gently trying to pry them away from the greasy silver locks of hair. "I don't even care if you think I'm not real.... J-just please, don't....." "Die." The final word echoed in her mind like a hollow prayer, and she tried to block it out, squeezing her eyes shut as though in pain; for all intents and purposes, she was, the feeling in her chest growing worse by the second, but she wasn't about to say that.
Her skin burned, her chest constricted, and despite herself she let out a quiet whimper, whether from pain or sorrow or both she couldn't be sure; but that didn't matter, as long as she could get him to stop talking like that, as long as she could get him to keep living she didn't care; she'd caused this whole mess, or atleast thats how it seemed. She'd destroyed him. And if he died because of her, there was no way she could ever face daylight again.

Kitten shuddered a bit, his instincts sweeping away the havoc in his mind. Twilight was falling apart, whether she was real or not, and even if he was on the verge of insanity, he still wanted to hold her together and not let her go. Even though she was touching him, mere inches from him, he never felt farther from her cold, stoney skin. His arms burned to move.
Slowly, uncertaintly he tooks his hands from his face, wrapping his arms around Twilight, squeezing her and resting his head on her shoulder. "Don't cry Twi-chan," He mumbled, shifting against her cold body, feeling it eat away at the feverish heat that he'd felt since she'd left. "I don't want you to cry because of me."

The small girl sniffled softly and squeezed her eyes shut even tighter, a few drops of salty liquid slipping past and running down her face; mentally, she screamed at herself, told herself that she couldn't fall apart now, or else she might lose him, might not be able to help, but there where warm arms around her now, and she could hear him telling her not to cry. She almost laughed. "I-i'm n-...." She tried to say, but it didn't survive very long on her lips, because now she was feeling unlike she had been for the last few months, and everything was crashing down on her, and she just couldn't stop no matter how badly she wanted to.
All she could do was say I'm sorry over and over again, more tears running down her cheeks as she clinged to him, as though he'd go jump off a bridge if she didn't. For all she knew, he might have done just that if she didn't; she was scared, and her shoulders where shaking again, and really, she shouldn't have been crying, she was trying to convince him that she was real, but it was just to much for one person to bear all at once.

Twilight was crying now, whispering appologies and clinging to him like he'd disappear. Kitten wished he would, wished he could wither away in her cold arms, die in the wonderful blankness that had wiped away his pain with stoney fingers. "There's no reason to be sorry, I'm still here Twilight." Well, the neko hoped he was still here. He couldn't feel anything anymore. Maybe he had died, maybe this is what heaven was. A moonlit field where everything you wanted came back. Maybe he'd see Will again. He felt blissfully numb.
Words swam in his head, appologies, explanations, all working to get spoken. None of them were enough. Nothing was enough. Everything paled to the fact that Twilight could have been back. He forgot about the small kitten that sulkily trotted back towards home. "You're going to stay, aren't you?" His voice was unbearably low and tired, like talking was taking more energy then clinging tightly to her, like it was her who would disappear. "If you are, just let me sit here for a moment longer, it's nice feeling so...numb."

Eventually, the apoligies died off, even after he had told her there was no reason to apoligize in the first place; of course, he was wrong, horribly wrong if he thought that saying there was no reason to be sorry was accurate. There where a million different reasons for her to be apoligizing, so many that she couldn't say I'm sorry to every single one of them. So she just clinged, attempting to calm herself down; by now Kitten should have known that this place wasn't heaven, really. Vampires didn't go there. Someday, she'd burn in hell for all the crimes she'd commited, and Kit would be really gone then. Maybe it was why she was so desperate at that moment.
His question made her let out a soft, sad little laugh, and she nodded a little bit, lifting one hand up and placing it atop his head; still clinging with the other hand. "O-of course I'm staying...." She said softly, reasuringly, letting her eyes slip shut momentarily; she was calmer now, not as many tears, though her shoulders where still shaking imperceptibly.

"Well good..." Murmured the sickly neko, his arms loosening, and nuzzling his nose closer to her cold neck, the smell that reminded him of so many bitter sweet things drifted lazily through his mind. "'M tired..." He sighed, his golden eyes fighting to stay open against her shoulder, "Mmm, falling asleep...in a dream..." He giggled a bit at the irony, his eyes finally sliding shut. His mind finally shut off, exhausted and starved. His heart fluttered in his chest, not receiving the command to keep beating, slowing down.
Mako, drawn out of his reminincing of the sudden wrongness of his world, felt it. Kitten's body was shutting down with his mind, he wasn't sleeping, he was dying, the god danmed kid had given up! And for once in his confident, hellish life, Mako was terrified. He tried to break loose, to get Kitten's brain to process again, but he could feel himself fading, too. He was just part of Kitten's mind, he wasn't anything specail. He couldn't save him, especailly not from himself. But oh dear god Kitten was gonna die.

For about five seconds, everything was right with the world. Just five seconds of happiness. It was to short. After five seconds, Twilight noticed that the whiskey-eyed boys heart wasn't beating like it had been just moments ago, growing slower and slower; she felt the panic in her chest sieze up once again, her eyes going wide as a look of sheer terror overtook her porcelain features. "No....." She said, carefully pulling him away, trying to see whether or not he was still breathing. "No... You can't..." She said, her breathing becoming irregular. And then she was shaking his shoulders, trying desperately to wake him up, to see the empty golden eyes. "Wake up damnit!" She sounded, near hystericly. "T-toku! Wake him up, make him wake up!" She didn't know what to do, or even if the supposed 'shield' could hear her; just that it was all she could do, scream and shake him and ty to force him awake. "Please!!"

Toku was near hysterics him, struggling to keep the kid alive, struggling to keep himself from fading like everything else. Everyting was slipping away in Kitten's mind, all his memories and knowledge, all of it was leaving. There were no flashes of light, there were no heavenly voices judging them, there was only the pure unbreakable nothingness as everything was pulled away.
And yet Kitten didn't even know what was happening, to him, he was just sleeping. He'd just fallen asleep, and he didn't know he might never wake up. Toku cried right then, for once in his life, trying to cling to the only person he lived for. "Don't die, kid. You still have her. She's here, she's right here. She wants you to wake up, kid, wake up!"
((-sobbing- I'm killing him! Take him to the hostpital! Something, Sunset!! -crying and clinging to Kitten, actually upset- I can't have him die! He's my favorite character! Who'm I gonna be emo with?!?!?!? T-T HOSPITAL!!! Though it is your choice....))

Franticly, Twilight tried to reason out the situation, tried to think or what to do, but in her paniced state that was far from an easy task; quickly, she lifted the boy up off the ground in her arms and looked around, blood colored eyes searching for help of somekind; not so far away, she saw Kitten's house, wondering in the back of her mind how she hadn't noticed it was there earlier. But despite this, she ran as fast as she could into the house, desperate to find a phone and call an ambulance; she wouldn't have made it to a hospital in time on foot. ((Gah, so short... DX; )
