The Doorway

*frowns*
I can't do that.
*looks at Hitomi*
I know you're uncontrollable right now, and if I try to stop you, you might eat me.
*shakes head*
So I know there's nothing I can do.
*waves to Shide*
Good Luck.
*jumps into a tree*

Shide stares at her and grabs her arm. "Please don't leave...I don't want to die yet."

*Pins him down and smiles* Bat's right, you can't do anything.

*gets grabbed*
What do I do?! I man I barely know, or my friend?
*looks back at him*
You're lucky I have someone I care about.
*gives him a look that says 'Run.'*
*starts walking*
*bumps into Hitomi, hard*
*falls on top of her*
Sorry, I tripped!

*Growls and falls over, letting go* Get off me! *Grabs for Shide*

Shide keeps hold of one of his guns, the other hidden under the carpet. "Thanks Echo." He slowly walks to the door.

*growls and rolls off Hitomi*
Shut it Shide.
*backs up a safe distance*
I've done what I can do.
I'll be a good girl and watch now.

"What do you mean? I'm just going to hide!" Shide's eye twitches.

*Looks at Bat* Hey, no fair. Why did you do that just to let him go?

*shakes head*
When you kill him, my conscience wouldn't be clear.
*looks down*
I had to do something.

"So you let me go for your own sake and not for another human being?" He looks hurt.

*Laughs* What an excuse, but that is just how you are~ *Jumps on Shide*

*shakes head again*
You two make me confused.
*looks sad*
Like I can't follow my heart, or my instincts.
*looks coldly at Shide*
If Hitomi doesn't eat she dies. Period.
It's the circle of life.

*Nods* What she said. I can't go too long without eatinngggg. *Drools*

He blinks and hides his gun. "Yet if she eats me, I will die instead."

*sighs and crosses arms*
Like I said, circle of life.
*waves*
Sorry kiddo.

"You know...That seems like an unfair thing to do to me..." He looks up at the ceiling and sighs. "If I die here, you'll never know...."

*growls*
Stop trying to guilt trip me.
*eyes shine silver*
I'm a gunslinger for a reason.
The reliable link.
*looks angry*
The less connections the better.

"Fine, kill your brother, see if I care." Shide gets a bored look and goes limp.

*Crosses her legs and sits on his arms* Bleh, weirdo guy.

*looks to Hitomi with a blank stare*
You eating or not?
Watching this is tearing my Guilty meter up.

*Pokes his cheek and thinks* What did he just say?

Shide closes his eyes for a minute, and then looks up. "Well? Am I dying today or what?"

*sighs and repeats*
"Fine, kill your brother, see if I care."
*glares and walks off*
This isn't my fight, and I shouldn't have gotten involved.
*waves*
See ya.

Shide kicks Hitomi off and runs for Echo. "You're a cruel girl!" His voice sounds sad and silly.
