    “ Sure.” Said Rin rubbing her arms slightly, it was a habit. She was close enough, to break into tears, but she wasn’t. She smiled a smile which was sad enough, though no tears were shown. Even though she was internally shaking right now, but she was fine physically.


    She smothered a giggle watching him fumble with the wires. “ you can connect with bluetooth.” She said with a warmer smile.

    Karkat and Milo looked at her, like what? What do you mean disappear? What happened to him? Those were the questions they didn’t want to ask her but wanted to at the same time. Milo looked at the doctor almost craning his neck to see Shara, he wanted to just go over there, but he had to remain where he was.
    ~
    Manuel leaned into the touch on accident, if he was a cat, he would have purred. “ I haven’t eaten in 17 months. i think I’m fine.” He said softly looking at Marinna. Damn she was beautiful even though she was caring.

    "I'm fine Mars." Said Rin apparently lying with all of her might. Though she knew that he would press until she came up with a reasonable excuse. So she was on her own for that much of the thing. Even though how much she wanted to tackle him into a hug. She was restriaining herself, this was literal torture.


    ~


    Karkat and Milo both nodded. Though Milo had to remain there seeming he had the rest of the remaining hours of school even though they just both skipped. Within all good reason, though. Karkat sighed though he had overheard what was going on, he looked at the book which held a lot of remedies which was in mandarin.


    He couldn't read that at all. He knew his aunt couldn't read it either. He'll be damned if she could.


    ~


    "I never had parents so this is probably new to me." Said Manuel still savoring the touch.

    "Mostly him chewing her out of going by his own medication in addition of taking herbal Chinese remedies. Yes he pretty old." Chuckled Karkat in agreement.


    ~
    damn....what am I suppose to freaking say?!?! she thought sighing in vain. "No... You are to damn perfect! And so stupid at the same time ." Said Rin chuckling slightly trying to make herself feel better though it was not working much to her own disappointment.


    ~
    Was there anything else? No none anything Manuel could think of. Even though he could not scarely remember his parents that who had abandon him due to well his eyes. "Most people consider me a freak." He said sighing.

    " I swear your words could send a any woman unsuspected related coma of sentimental value." Said Rin relishing the nuzzle, technically everything in a nutshell. She ruffled his hair even though he hated it when she did that, well to bad it was his fault that his hair was really soft.


    "Not everyone can be always be happy mate. They have to have their down moments." She added smiling. This really went against the code really well and Rin didn't care.


    ~
    "What?! A burden when I think that?! Or why should I? Sorella I don't think that those b-tches are feeding you lies. And Milo using you to learn to how read and write English? Bull sh-t." Said Karkat sighing shaking his head though he was furious beyond belief.


    Milo looked at her just apparently crushed, could you blame him?


    ~
    "Its in a mother DNA to worry about her children . Though I wouldn't know much of raising kids though I had one hell of an experience of raising hell spawn of a girl. Hellfire was her nickname from me. I feel for the fool who manages to piss her off." He looked at marinna looked just like her.


    " please tell me you are her indentical twin?" He asked.

    Karkat and Milo could say nothing; they both just watched her burst into tears. Milo’s heart ached for her, even though he simply had enough, she looked so much better with a smile, than with tears. Milo who didn’t care at the moment just picked her up, and held her close. He hated sadness; he hated it with a burning passion. Nothing could brought with sadness expect depression, and a long line of self-hatred.


    Karkat could only watch the touching moment. “Sorella…. You will get better. You will. Just please don’t give up on yourself. You seriously think that I would just simply leave you here in this miserable hell hole? You are not weaker than me, in a sense you don’t get angry has fast has I can. I barely think, I just act.” A few more seconds later, his voice would have cracked even though he refused to speak anymore.


    Milo could not form words in order to speak, he only held onto her refusing to accept the fact that she was going to give up on herself after recovery was going to well.
    ~
    “That’s pirate queen to you!” Laughed Rin ruffling his head even more just to tick him off. She did behave like a pirate for sure, though it made a lot of sense. She had nothing else to admit though; she felt the kiss on her cheek. She inwardly relished it like always, even though one day she would give him, his chance to sweep her off her feet literally.


    Until that day she would stubbornly play hard to get.
    ~
    “ You have an older sister called Rin correct?” he asked almost stifling a groan. It was hard to believe something so kind was related to that spitball of fire.


    “ I never had such a panic attack or nearly died of worry because she was within in the entire room. We barely got along most of the time. It was either words or gestures were used none of them were not polite to use for any mother to hear.”

    Karkat held her hand even though he was close to tears though. Milo just held onto her, doing what he does best. He was only a comfort system.
    ~
    “Nope it’s your fault your hair is so soft!” She laughed. When it came back to that, she nodded simply smiling slightly. “This time I’ll connect the phone to the blue tooth and you just dial the number.


    “ It seems that you have never connected a phone call that way.” She added smothering yet another giggle. Rin who had heard the name Romana before, she held back a wince of complete sympathy. She knew Simon, and she learned of his fate, which was tragic in all sense. Even though she had learned Italian through well Simon has well, now this was terrible.


    “Mars. I knew Romana’s husband before he was died.” She murmured softly even though the pang of grief was real. She wanted to cry so badly. Who knows how long she managed to keep it in for so long, has if she refused to mention that dark moment, well she wasn’t in the stages of grief, she was just rejecting the fact that one person died, she refused to grieve. She just refused no matter of how painful it was, she was slowly coping but it wasn’t enough.
    ~
    Manuel whistled lowly, he couldn’t believe it. “Dios… I am surprised. Honestly somewhere she got the entire bad persona mostly her hyper-activeness, and her sense of danger is alarming. She laughed in the face of danger, and still one hell of a daredevil. Though there is a sense of kindness within that lunatic madness.”


    “ Even though that is your sister. I am surprised I still alive, that she didn’t kill me with worry.”

    Rin had a feeling that is she is going to love befriending Romana. That was a life she could get used of living, a mafia related one for that matter. She had an almost grin splitting through her face, she tried hard of suppressing it. Though the grin slowly traveled through, much to her own amusement. “Altro che Marte è un grande idiota. Sto bene, a quanto pare non riesce a controllare la sua bocca ha sempre. Gotta sempre vantarsi su qualcuno o qualcosa. Non c'è molto di me di sapere altro che io sono la sorella adottiva di Diablo.” She said in fluent unbroken Italian, and she proceeded has always to ruffle his hair.


    Diablo [ Manuel] had legendary skills that came to sword fighting, even though his was more leaning towards a more direct dirty fight which ended up with someone getting gutted, or dying in a terrible way. Rin perfected his fighting style throwing the traditional ken-justu.


    In terms Manuel was a hitokiri battosai [a hired assassin]
    ~
    Milo and Karkat looked at one another, neither of them wanted to repeat what they had heard, or what happened. Eventually Karkat spoke up, “ What happened was that she started saying that she was sorry for been so weak, useless, and always hold me back from doing what I wanted to do. That it was better off if she just disappeared, that I would be able to do what I wanted, without any string attached. Mostly stages of depression.”


    Milo nodded even though he was in the stages of shock.
    ~
    Manuel watched her nod off, “ Try and get some sleep… I’m the one who holding you up.”

    “You sound like Rin….” Chuckled Manuel wincing softly in pain, his ribs were bruised but not broken. The former assassin would hate to tell what he was before now, even though he was exhausted. He looked at Marinna, and asked her a question. “You barely know what I am or what I did to end up in this predicament. Even though you are certain that everyone deserves a second chance. I doubt it, though these hands have caused more bloodshed to fill field’s worth of blood.



    “Marinna I’m an assassin. A hired murderer, if I am going to get a second chance I think I blew my chances long ago.” He said with a cynical chuckle. He said nothing more.
    ~
    Rin chuckled. She couldn’t be more right about him, even though she adored the Korean with a burning passion. “Not like I know that he’s been contacted the last I checked which was 17 months ago that they said he was in Rome doing some work… Which I doubt since he’s Diablo.”


    Even though Rin could smell a lie, something was wrong. She didn’t venture onwards, she was going to pay a visit to the boss of Manuel’s group soon.
    ~
    Karkat nodded even though this was beyond what either of them was used to. Milo had to get home soon though, he glanced at the clock, even though his mother would be beyond worried by now. They were on a set mission, to get Shara happy no matter what happens, they were going to keep her happy even if it kills her.

    “Si…. Si…” said Rin nodding just because she had to, she needed good grades which she had. She had to pass for sure, though nothing could resort from that in a million of chances. She wasn’t like most girls who partied most of the semester away and then paid or bribed an unaware nerd to pass them onwards. Even though she did party like hell when exams were over, she almost smiled at that.


    Rin crossed her arms slightly, even though she knew a visit to the boss would be extremely rare. The chances of it actually happening would be like almost null and voided. “ The boss doesn’t just see anyone there has to be a direct reason to an unusual visit. Right now he probably busy doing god knows what. Though this should work.”


    It was almost amazing has it was scary of how easily Rin could talk about something highly illegal has in actually committing a crime or two, without blinking an eye. She had already broken at least 36 rules, on her own accord yet her record was spotless.
    ~
    Again Manuel looked at her, she was a saint. He could barely believe that she would actually consider the fact of giving someone like him a murderer a second chance. She was insane, though then again so was he? He smiled slightly at when she fawned helplessly at her own son’s cute antics.


    “ If anyone deserves a second chance it may been my own turn… though it would be every hard of giving up the way of the sword…” he said.
    ~
    “ I should be getting back… I don’t want to worry mama any longer.” Said Milo looking at the clock, he winced inwardly.

    “You are such in a cuddling mood! Who are you and what have you done with the mars I know?!” Rin exclaimed giggling with sheer amazement of him. Even again she was touched, damn she would have done exact the same thing, and she smirked happily though. She had this fool wrapped around her finger, and she knew that he wasn’t complaining.


    “ The con, the competition, and now this… this is going to be one interesting week.” She said counting the events off her hand.
    ~
    “ Spoken like a true saint.” Commented Manuel chuckling slightly.
    ~
    Milo nodded. Even though he proceeded to what Daisy asked, he gently shook Shara awake. “ Shara..” he whispered softly/


    “ I have to go though… I don’t want my mother calling the cops on me..” Joked Milo knowing fully well that Marinna would never call the cops on him, unless it was really needed. He gave the petite girl a hug, smiling softly has he did so.


    “ I’ll see you then.” He said smiling.
    ~
    Rin smiled at him.
    ~
    “ You are most welcome.” Said Manuel finally allowing himself to be happy, and just fall in love.

    “On my honor has a knight. My lady.” He said in the style of a royal knight back in the day. Milo smiled even wider, his smiles were very rare, he rarely smiled on a seldom day.
    ~
    “ Well I was planning to go has as character from an anime that I been obsessive over for the past couple of months. Which I am still going to do that.” Grinned Rin smiling happily at her selection of her costume.


    She was going has Deidara [ look him up he’s freaking adorable!]
    ~
    Manuel finally allowed himself to fall asleep, even though now his nightmare were slowly been replaced, though not all the way. With a smiling Marinna.

    “ Then get some rest. I’ll be here when you wake up.” He said promising softly gently caressing her cheek with his hand with a warm smile. He bowed promptly like an old butler smiling with pleasure. He would smile more often even if it made her happy.


    Soon after than he departed with that small faint smile on his face. It was official he loved her dearly.
    ~
    “ Well I am going has Deidara from Naruto Shippuden. I have no idea of who you should go has.” Said Rin smiling softly, she was pleased that he was becoming such a hyperactive puppy about this.
    ~
    Manuel opened an eye slowly, even had a hundred thoughts running through his mind. Most of them were good, but his nightmares were running through. His heart clenched from the pain, and fear which didn’t settle quiet right. There was no way he was going to fall asleep easy; he would have to remain awake.
    “ Marinna..” he whispered softly.

    "Well there are hundreds of characters that you could be Mars. Though mostly since I'm playing the role of villan who blew himself up and came back a couple of series's later in a retaking phase stil kicking some serious ass though was impossible to well rekill him." Said Rin only saying what she could say before she almost fell apart in laughter.


    " I think I know who you could be though i doubt your persona could be rather questioning. "


    ~
    Milo was soon enough walking back home after daisy had had him off. He knew where he was heading and he hummed under his breath out of habit. Though something to did not settle right judging by the fact there was a bit of blood on the seat of the car.


    "What the hell happen here?" He wondered outloud glancing at his own hands knowing they were going to a topic of concern.


    ~
    " nightmare."

    Sure... Mars i hope you are not thinking of something dirty...?


    " Has long you don't start your own fanclub mars. I swear to god i will destory it, and you." she warned even though there was a faint smile lacing her threat. She would enjoy torturing him though.


    ~
    " If you wouldn't mind." Said manuel.


    ~
    Milo who just happened to walk inside, he shook his head. His mother was known to take in strays, so a human was nothing knew to him. With a wave of his hand, he motioned soundlessly to Manuel. Who is he? he asked even though never saying a word.

    “He’ll be here Mars. I know he will.” Said Rin looking at him with a side glance which said nothing more of than calm down. From where she was perched at cross legged she had an eye out, leaning against her hand seeming to amused than anything though she knew, she was amused since well Mars was furious and determined to win that date with her. She could scarcely believe that Mars actually agreed on that threatening the very life of Cronus in order to make sure he didn’t dare attempt getting romantically involved with almost his girl.


    Rin was up on a stacked up cars which was a few feet up, though how she climbed up there without Mars having a heart attack is beyond her. She played with a strand of her hair, watching mars get everything ready. “He’s a spoiled brat he’s bound to make you do all the work, ever heard of the prince and pauper? It’s a cruel joke but seems too relevant. Anyway I can see him coming right about now.”


    Speak of the devil and he shall appear, Cronus had arrived smirking so confidently. Rin gritted her teeth scowling at the backup he so happened to bring along, she narrowed her gaze at the femme which smirked up at her when she felt her malicious glare. There was a hipster like femme who had a very widening grin on her face.


    “Look of what the catfish dragged in!” Jeered Rin grinning with malicious intent. She used a fish pun on purpose, just to infuriate the female in below her.


    “ That’s my line!” Snapped the femme glaring at Rin who fell over laughing at Cronus’s own stupid choice. The dark haired beaut coughed to hide yet another cough.


    Soon enough Rin who was pretty much solid on doing parkour stunts, landed with the grace of ninja but her eyes held not laughing matter she was dead on serious.


    “ Meenah… you are pathetic… cheated on 28 different beauty pageants, made false trophies on several accords. Can’t even get yourself a boyfriend who can’t be appalled by you. I say you and Cronus are a match made in hell.” She said with her voice dripping with scorn. Even though she looked killer in anything she wore, no matter made her look good.


    Even though she wore tore jeans, worn black converse, a sleeping with sirens band t-shirt, with a black beanie placed comfortably on her head, alongside a black with purple striped jacket. Even though she looked like your typical teenager, she already was rewarded with look of absolute need even though it was hidden from Mars, she liked teasing the male even further.


    Cronus was ogling has always, which Rin fought hard from bashing his head in again has always
    .
    “Lets get this show on the road shall we?” she asked with a shrug of her shoulders before she turned right back around and walked towards Mars with a pirate like smirk.


    “의는 그들을 죽일 수 있습니다 ...”
    ~
    As the days got worse, more and more common was Milo and Karkat to be landed in the front office for fighting, and other things has well. Though they both were seldom of what was going to happen in the next series of days, just nothing could prepare them for what was next to come.


    The gang had once more appeared on the ritual of troubling Shara this time; they had gone a step to far. Two pairs of scissors were reported missing of the sharpest kind to be exact from art, although no type of accord was noticed, though they were on a motive to make sure what the last and final threat was.


    “ Hey freak!”


    Selene [ finally came up with a name for the leader lol..] Motioned her goons has usual to hold Shara back and against the wall. She smirked mirthlessly looking at her long hair, “Such long hair…. Huh Rapunzel? How did the saying go… Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair!” she said motioning a snipping signal which was for them to cut her hair off.




    “ Mars?” Asked Rin watching the sudden change of emotions on him. He went from insanely cocky, to scared in three seconds. Something wasn’t sitting right, Rin didn’t like it at all, and she gritted her teeth only praying that whatever happened she would be there to help him. She gave a worried look at the rest of the band who shared the same look has her, though she needed to know. Living in the shadows was not of one of Rin’s greatest strengths.


    Eventually she went over there, and grasped onto his shoulder giving it a comforting squeeze even though she could guess who it was. Her eyes flashed with hidden emotions, that phone call was not good news she knew that from personal experience. “Mate the show must go on…. Trust me you are not alone on this one.” She said softly stuffing her hands into her jacket pocket only watching his emotions.


    Even though she had no choice but to hug him. The powers in a hug were unknown, but powerful. Rin knew by all forces that he was going to need that hug that anything else in world.
    ~
    Karkat and Milo could sense, no more like feel something went horribly wrong. Like the sense of clarity just died in a matter of seconds, has soon as Karkat got the phone call, Milo knew all was lost. The only thing that held Shara in an emotional sense of state was now shattered into pieces.


    They both managed to get the room, but the sight in front of them would forever haunt their memory. Karkat swallowed the urge of bursting into tears, he shifted his gaze elsewhere. Milo could only look onwards, eyes wandering from place to place only recollecting each thing playing the whole thing in his head, before he took only meaningful steps forward.


    His poor princess. His just poor princess, no one deserves such a punishment. The only thing, he could do from saving his heart from shattering was what he always done, was swoop her up into an embrace, and hold her muttering only what he could gently trying to ease the pain, trying to soothe what had been done, knowing the damage has been done.


    If she was able to recover would be a miracle which they would all need desperately, a long depression would be of result. This was the start of a long recovery.


    Karkat who was happen to be busy taking pictures, the only person he could think of sending them to would be no other than Nepeta. She needed to see this, even though he was downright pissed off. He wanted to kill anything, anyone, and anybody. His hands shook with uncontrollable rage, even though he keeping himself in check for his sister’s sake.


    Who knew this would inspire a song. Milo could only hum it softly rubbing small circles on the small of Shara’s back trying to get her to fall asleep. He only wished it was just a nightmare.


    “Sake ta mune no kizuguchi ni afure nagareru pain in the dark
    Kasane ae ta shunkan no tsunagaru omoi tokashi te
    Same nai netsu ni unasare te
    Saigo no koe mo kikoe nai


    Don't cry
    Koware sou na hodo dakishime tara kimi ga furue te I ta
    Sotto kazasu tenohira ni fure te mise te
    Never until the end


    Koboreochiru suna no you ni hakanai negai o close to the light
    Toji ta kimi no omokage ni kare nai namida nijin de
    Hodoi ta yubi no sukima kara
    Inori ga fukaku tsukisasaru


    Don't cry
    Hate nai itami to kanashimi kara kimi o sukue ta daro you
    Motto tsuyoku tenohira ni fure te mise te


    Ever and never end
    Tokihanatsu so far away!


    Kizamu inochi no tsubasa de umarekawaru toki o machikogare te


    Don't cry
    Koware sou na hodo dakishime tara kimi ga furue te I ta
    Sotto kazasu tenohira ni fure te mise te
    Kitto sagashi te I ta n da iroase nai kimi toiu na no kiseki
    Motto tsuyoku tenohira de boku ni fure te


    Ever and never end.”

    The phone did go off, and Karkat picked up the phone placing against his ear, he could only respond in rapid Italian for the sake of him not breaking down in English. He motioned for Milo to follow which he did hurrying onwards out of the school, again excused for the second time, and well aware they are going to get into trouble for skipping but this was proven to be the correct thing since this was a medical problem.


    “Those b-tches cut off her hair….. They destroyed everything she held dear….” He said in raspy breaths trying to conceal the anger, horror, and outermost grief he was feeling.
    ~
    Rin could only nod, and just strum along on her guitar trying hard of not showing the translucent tears from flowing down her face. She could know what would happen, though she was starting to have a feeling it would not end well has much has they all would expect it. She could only hope it wasn’t anything to serious, but then again it was from what she could tell from mars.


    Rin looked up, and smiled a small smile which held the same amount of sadness even though she was feeling for fact that Mars was worried . Even though the song she chose was completely different from what she had chosen in the first place, she didn’t need her guitar for this song. She carefully placed her prized object, and walked to the mic.


    The words that poured from her were in a complete honest mixture of Japanese and English, she probably didn’t know Shara but it didn’t save her from singing something that would at least make her feel better about herself.
    “I'm fourteen years old, I am pretty
    Genki na chiisai lady
    Yukashita ni zutto
    Karigurashi shitetano
    Toki ni wa happy, toki ni wa blue
    Dareka ni aitai


    Kaze kami ni kanjite
    Sora wo nagametai
    Anata ni hana todoketai
    Mukou wa betsu no sekai
    Hora chou-chou ga matteru
    Watashi wo matteiru


    Sou kawaru koto mo nai
    Watashi no chiisai sekai
    Kirai janai no demo anata wo
    Motto motto shiritakute
    Yorokobi to kanashimi
    Wa itsumo orimazatteyuku


    Kaze kami ni kanjite
    Sora wo nagametai
    Anata ni hana todoketai
    Mukou wa betsu no sekai
    Hora chou-chou ga matteru
    Anata wo matteiru


    Taiyou no shita de
    Hana ni kakomarete
    Anata to hibi sugoshitai
    Kono omoi wo mune ni
    Atarashii sekai de
    Watashi rashiku ikiru.”


    Even though Cronus and the others could raise eyebrows of what was going on the other side. If they knew, I think they would have quit while they still had a chance.


    Rin gave a small comforting smile towards Mars, and nodded. “Knock them dead.”
    ~
    Milo let go, though he again was not happy of been in the same place again.
    ~
    “ Something went wrong…..” said Manuel who was able to now sit up, and he could feel that inner peace just flickered out into vast darkness. He looked at Marinna, which by the sounds of it was not a good thing. he knew what inner peace felt like, and went it out he knew it was not a good thing.
