In an intentional breach of safety regulations, which threatened her with nausea and shaky hands, Mimsy was barefoot in a laboratory again.
This was important. And it had to be, if she was standing in defiance to some of the most crucial sets of rules in her life, rules that stayed concrete and unchanging despite the world's inability to do the same. She was guilty of change too, of course - she just wanted it to be in the right direction.
Which is why she had to try to understand this. She was at a crossroads, and choosing the wrong direction to move forward with could produce inconceivably horrible results.
(Turning back was no longer an option.)
Her eyes settled on the series of objects that sat in front of her on the laboratory table: one pair of bee-colored rain boots, one petri dish, two slides. Each of them were in some way relevant to her recent progress on the long-term experiment of the molecular structure that dictated the existence of love. Each of them were in some way relevant to him, because he said that he loved her, even when nobody else had.
She sighed as her fingers ran the length of one of the boots, covered in grime from some unknown period before they found them. If she was going to keep these, there was no way that this would suffice. She would have to repair the damage from the previous owner's neglect before she wore them again.
With careful steps, she moved to retrieve a small dish of water and an armful of cleaning supplies. This was important, but manageable, and she was going to have exactly what she wanted.

[align=center] [color=#4E387F][size=54]❉[/size][/color]Y[size=10]uki clung onto Kurai as they stood on the tree. She felt colder and colder. Finally the coldness turned into numbness, taking her into sleep. She fought to stay away, but slowly, she was being taken into her sleep. She smiled up at Kurai as she looked at him looking out for Kagura. Finally she heard Kagura and Kurai having a conversation about who won. She smiled and finally closed her eyes falling asleep. She was half asleep, half awake. She felt other hands touch her, making her jump and twitch a bit. It scared her a bit, but finally she settled down. She then felt happiness flood, and overwhelm her when she slept, but she wasn't sure why. She felt her face heat up, making her become redder. She slowly faded into darkness and after a while she began to dream. She began to dream of her [i] Black Wing-ed Angel[/i]. A nickname Yuki had made. She heard him call her name, and then suddenly she was falling into darkness.
The darkness consumed her, taking her in. Yuki tried to scream, but no voice came out. Then, a man's voice called out her name, echoing in her head, and through out her body. Fear consumed her now. She reconized that voice... It was her papa's voice.The man who would name his family dark, unwanted names, to show how much he detested them all. She shook as her name echoed through her head, and she remembered what her father had told her."[i][color=#999966] Do you know what your name means Yuki? It means snow death... Wanna know why I named you that? Because the day you were born, it was snowing outside in the night time... And on the day you were born, you killed my beloved.... Your mommy...[/color][/i]"

[color= #C11B17] You didn't find us, we let you...[/color]" He said as he jumped down from the tree and landed infront of Kagura. He looked down at Yuki. She had fallen asleep, but even still, she coughed violently. She was red all over, meaning her fever was burning higher.Kurai looked up at Kagura, giving her a worried face. He kissed Yuki before handing her to Kagura. "[color= #C11B17] Please take care of her for the meanwhile. I am sorry for being such a burden on you. But she was very happy to have played. I leave her in your hands for now, I need to take care of a few things...And, as instructions, if she wakes up, and I'm still not here, tell her I'm looking for the Black wing-ed angel. And DO NOT TAKE OFF HER BRACELET,RING,AND NECKLACE![/color]" he said yelling the last part. He looked furious as he warned them not to take it off her. He then calmed down as he looked at Yuki.He kissed her again and then bowed in apology. He bowed at Kagura and the others and took off, disappearing into thin air. [i][color= #C11B17] I have to look around to see if her home is anywhere near by... Or if we can.... Find her brother...I'll get new clothes for her and food if theres a town near by.[/color][/i] He thought, thinking of Yuki.

[align=center][size=21]❦[/size][size=9]Kurai just bowed his head when Alan said '[i]once they meet again...[/i]' [i][color=#7E2217]Never again...[/i][/color] Thought Kurai. He sighed as he looked at Kagura, returning her sad look. [i][color=#7E2217] Ignorance is Bliss.... Isn't it... Kagura?[/i][/color] Kurai asked sadly. He didn't want Yuki to suffer. Nor did he want to part from her... But, life was full of sacrifices. And Yuki knew that all too well. He wanted to tell Alan how wrong he was... How they could never set foot in hell... How one day... Yuki will be gone forever... He then remember something Yuki and him talked about. When they were walking together,right before she returned with Ryuu... Kurai's eyes seemed dead. His eyes dead, he walked over to Kagura, and took her head, leading her into the kitchen. "[color=#7E2217] Excuse us... I have something I need to tell Kagura...[/color]" He said and sat Kagura down. Sitting across from her, he took her hand and held it. "[color=#7E2217]Let me... Show you something...[/color]" He said as closed his eyes. Then, an image started... Memories of Kurai and Yuki...
[size=20]* * *[/size]
[color=gray][i] Yuki looked at Kurai with a sweet smile. "[color=#4E387F] Nothing can ever last forever... I know that so well... Both You and I...[/color]" She began to say. Kurai had a confused face."[color=#7E2217]Yuki?...[/color]" He asked softly. Yuki turned around so that she wouldn't have to look at Kurai. "[color=#4E387F] I belong in hell... Because... Even if I can never hate another person... I still hate... Hate so very badly... Hate so much, it hurts me...[/color]" Kurai was confused even more. Yuki was a pure angel. Hating was something he never knew about Yuki. [color=#7E2217]But.. Who could she hate if... If it's not another human being? Could she hate me?[/color] His voice rang out. Yuki's sad laughter rang out. Kurai's head was lifted up to looked at Yuki. " [color=#4E387F] I'm going to hell because I want others to be happy. I want others to have a chance at happiness. And I know that one day.. I will no longer be able to cross the line from hell to heaven. That one day... I will no longer be able to see everyone dearest to me.. So... I have a wish for you Kurai...[/color]" She said ending her voice in almost a whisper.Kurai nodded, and Yuki continued. "[color=#4E387F] So many regrets.... I never found my Angel... And I dout I ever will. And It hurts alot... Because... I loved him.. My angel... He was my dearest brother....[/color]" She whispered."[color=#4E387F] But, I shall never forget him... But as a fair deal... I'll tell you who I hate in return you must do me my favor...[/color]" Yuki was standing by the window looking up at the moon. The room was dark, the only light came from the full moon. It shone over Yuki, dancing over her. Kurai's eyes widened a bit as he swore he saw Yuki's wings for a moment. Frozen, the image of Yuki... Yuki looked at Kurai, tears streaming down her cheeks, her expression seeming as if someone was torturing her. She looked ready to die. Yet, she looked so beautiful. She was 16, all grown up. Her wings spread wide as she looked at Kurai with such sad eyes. Kurai blink rapidly, and then the image was gone. Yuki's face was dark because of the room. The only things he could see where her tears, reflecting the moon's light. "[color=#4E387F] The person... I hate most of all... Is me...[/color]" She said softly.At that moment Kurai felt his heart sink. He felt his stomach do a flip.[color=#7E2217] But... She never said anything. None of her actions ever suggested... But... But... why?![/color] He thought to himself frantically. Yuki smiled in the darkness."[color=#4E387F] Because... I make people suffer...[/color]" She began to explain. Kurai was shocked speechless."[color=#4E387F] My angel dirtied himself to protect me... I caused my mother's death, and caused my father to go mad with grief.... And thus, I will create grief for Alan, and Ayame, and everyone else... So... For that reason... Promise me... That once everything is returned to normal... Erase me... Erase me from their memories...Make seem as if we had never met. So that none of this... Could ever cause them grief...[/color]" With that... Kurai fell to the ground. His eyes wide.[color=#7E2217]Erase their memories of you?... But even if I did that... You'll just hurt even more... You'll be the one to sacrifice the most... The one who would have to endure the pain of being forgotten...[/color] He thought as he looked up at Yuki. He picked himself up... His hand rolled into a fist... And silently... Without a word of argurment, he nodded."[color=#7E2217] I promise you...[/color]" He said in a whisper. Everything... Everything will be forgotten. The existance of Yuki will be erased.[/color] With that, Kurai let go of Kagura's hand. He opened his eyes slowly, and looked at Kagura intensly, waiting for her reaction. [/size]

The next two slides were simple, prepared with relative ease. These were the first kinds of samples that every student examined under a microscope when learning to use it, and she had done this countless times with equipment both at school and home. It had the same simplicity to her as turning on the television might to anyone else. Almost reflexive. With a deep breath and high expectations, she tipped her head down to look into the microscope-- An insatiable curiosity could not be told 'no', so she'd looked towards him, as was inevitable; everything stopped, even her breathing, and insistent fingers nudged her chin up, directing her back towards the stars.She clenched her eyes shut, blindly adjusted the focus, and tried again. The normality surprised her this time - shouldn't it be different? Shouldn't it have some indication of what happened? A growing frustration felt tight in her chest, and she pinched the bridge of her nose. Surely there was some evidence here.

It was understandable, when she thought about it, that there was nothing in the previous samples. They were hers, by technicality, and it made sense that there would be nothing if she tried to see it in herself. She didn't feel it. She couldn't see something in herself that she knew she didn't have. That was so obvious now that she felt idiotic for ever thinking otherwise. But this was his, blonde and shiny, like a little glint of sunlight beneath the glass. He felt it. There was a far greater change that she would see some difference in his particles when he had it. She switched the slides and scanned it with an edge of desperation. Normal. " Really?" she muttered, flipping the switch to 'off'. Svensyl laughed endlessly in the back of her mind, which turned into a fit of giggles when she looked at the petri dish and found no change at all. She buried her face in her hands and sighed. This was not what she'd anticipated. After that she would have expected to find something to support her claim, but everything appeared exactly as it always had.

She stood with her head in her hands until her elbows ached and her fingers were numb, until it made sense again.
"No wonder," she breathed, picking her head up to look at all of the samples again. How could she have been so foolish? Though these samples were the most relevant samples in a general sense, they missed the mark by a longshot for her ultimate goal.
This had been like looking for antimatter in a cupcake.
What she should have been looking at was cells within tissue from the heart. Had she collected the sample quickly enough...she cursed herself for how impressive she already imagined those results would be. There was so much potential, squandered by obtaining all of the wrong things. Maybe if she had been thinking more clearly, this would not have happened.
She would just have to try harder, over and over again, until she managed the optimal tissue sample. In spite of the tremendous failure she'd encountered here today, it felt like she could do this again. It felt like she knew which path to take.
It felt like she was going to have exactly what she wanted.
