| - Valkerie's Thoughts: This time for sure. This time I'll get him. Tarakudo: Maybe when your lucky? Valkerie: Why. Won't. You. You. Just. Hold. Still?! Tarakudo: Now where's the fun in that?? Valkerie: Damn it. That's the 15th time this week. Tarakudo: 19th time. Valkerie: Whatever. Tarakudo: What's the matter? Valkerie: It's been 12 years. I can understand why you wouldn't remember. Tarakudo: We are here Valkerie. Valkerie: Where is he-* Valkerie: Why are we here? Tarakudo: Kenjin, Look after the ship. Myself and . . . or Valkerie will be back shortly. Tarakudo: There is something I must show you. Valkerie: Where are you taking me? Why are we here? Tarakudo: Just wait. We are almost there. Tarakudo: They all recieved a burial worthy of their name's and lives. They all recieved a Warrior's funeral. "Here Lies Keiran and Valerie. They Died to Protect Their Family" Valkerie: You buried them. You let them rest in peace. I- Tarakudo: They were some of the greatest people I had ever known. They deserved a burial worthy and they recieved it. Im sorry. Valkerie: When I got this sword, my mother told me to not let anger control my life. I did, up til now. Valkerie: Thank you for doing this. Tarakudo: It's the least I could do for you. Valkerie: Tarakudo? Valkerie: Tarakudo! Valkerie: TARA!!!!! Valkerie: ARE ANY OF YOU DOCTORS?! Viper: Doctor Sssssssssssstein issss. Doctor Stein: I TOLD YOU YOU INCOMPETENT IMBOCILE!! ITS SHTEIN!! SHTEIN!!! NOT SHHHHHHHHHHHHEIN!! Doctor Stein: Vat? Don't be shtupid. Vis is natural, he vill take medicine now ok? You must leave yes yes. Shcreaming not goo place for you. Valkerie: This is natural? How? How can coughing up blood and collapsing be natural? Doctor Stein: Poor Naive Girly, You do not know the veason vhy he is like zis? vould you like me to tell you? Doctor Stein: I vill take zat as a yes. Doctor Stein: Now, as you may know zis man used to be a demon of sortz. Zee Demon's name vas Kralak zee most powerful of body possesing demon's, Hence vhy your island shtood no chance the moment he shtepped zere. Doctor Stein: You see zee reason I came onto zis ship iz because Tarakudo iz an interesting subject in vich for my demon research, he changed himself and fought back zee demon, he now haz complete control over the demon's power's alzo zee price of his zanity iz high. Doctor Stein: For a normal human being or Devil Fruit consumer zis vould kill, But for Tarakudo it iz a temporary cure, by temporary I mean every 3 month's, Just zo he can make zome girly happy. Iz zat a good enough explanation? Valkerie: A demon inside him. Explains the split personallity thing i witnessed back when we first met. Valkerie: How long til he wakes up? Doctor Stein: NO! It iz not a shplit personality. It iz a shplit soul. NOW!! OUT OUT OUT!! COMPLICATED OPERATION TO BEGIN NOT FOR GIRL EYE!!!! Valkerie: What's going on? I feel..... weird. Like I'm worried about him. No. I'm fine. Besides, Tara will be....TaraKUDO will be fine. He's too strong to let a demon get to him. Rosette: Not like you to be worried babe. Why don't you walk your little tooshie to the island and do what Tarakudo came to get you to do. Don't worry hunny, we will sort out everything else. Viper: Itsssssssssss Okay . . . He'll be fine, You go and sssssssssssssssssssssssay goodbye and what not to whatever's here. Musssssst have been important for Tara to only take you. Valkerie: Thank you. Will one of you come and get me when he wakes up? Viper: Sssssssssssure we will. Now go ssssssssssay goodbye to the onesssssss on thissssssss island. Valkerie: Hi mom. Hi dad. I know I haven't been here in a long time. I've been busy. I wish you were here. You would like my friends. I found the man that killed you, but my time with my friends has changed my heart. I no longer wish him dead. In fact, I see him as a friend. You would be proud. It's like you said once dad "A strong warrior can defeat his enemy, but a wise warrior can spare his enemy." Tarakudo: Sorry for my little display earlier . . . Valkerie: So it wasn't you who killed them. It was that demon in you. Valkerie: You didn't deserve this scar. It did. Tarakudo: No. I went along with the Demon believing it's trick's. I was the host to it's insanity. It was me who killed them. Hence why I've done so much to make up for the live's i've taken. Valkerie: Like letting me strike you back then. And making these graves. Tarakudo: Y-yes. Valkerie: Thank you for this. Also..... Valkerie: I forgive you. Tarakudo: Y-you F-forgive me? Valkerie: Yes Tara. I forgive you for back then. Tarakudo: Thank you. Valkerie: Oh.....no. Tarakudo: Why are you bleeding? What's wrong?! Valkerie?! Sword: Foolish girl. You should know better. If you reveal your positive emotions, the sword will punish you. Sword: If you are able to help her in time, this will not happen again. Though I possess this sword, I cannot leave it. Her fate is in your hands. Tarakudo: STEIN!!! Use your medical skills NOW!!! Dr. Stein: OFCOURSE YOU DO!!! MY GENIUZ IZ UNIMAGINABLE!!! I VILL HEAL HER VITH EAZE!! Dr. Stein: Hmmm Zis iz odd. Tarakudo: What is? What's odd Stein?! Dr. Stein: The cause of the blood vesselz in her ear'z to leave zee body is due to a similar reason to yourz Tarakudo. Tarakudo: What do you mean? Dr Stein: ZIS!!! Tarakudo: WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!! THAT'LL KILL HER!!! Dr. Stein: Shut up you demonic idiot. Zee only vay she vill survive is through zis extract. Now be quiet or you vill have to leave! MY GENIUS IS AT VORK!! Sword: You did well young murderer. She will live. Sword: Because of you, she will live to see tomorrow, and will be able to express her emotions freely. Tarakudo: You. Your the one that caused her pain weren't you? Sword: She knew the rules. Why do you think her friends never saw her smile. It wasn't just because she was in mourning, or because of what you did, murderer. It's because she couldn't. The sword wouldn't allow it. Tarakudo: Call me murderer again and I will break you. That is not a threat. Its a promise. Anyone has a right to their emotions. Sword: How would Valkerie feel if I was broken. I'm the only thing she has of her parents. Besides, what else would I call you. You are what you are....murderer. Tarakudo: Tell me. What happens when the already dead die? Because my face will be the last thing you ever see. Sword: You kill me, and Valkerie dies too. We're bonded, like the green haired girl and that damned mutt from my realm. Demonic Tarakudo: You are lucky. Not because of your bond. Not because of Valkerie. But because of the island we are on. Her Parent's are here. It's a shame she's bonded with such a pathetic weasel like you who takes their pride in causing a girl pain for her emotions? The day your bond is broken you better run and hide in your own pathetic way for I will hunt you down and slaughter you for the pain you cause her. Sword: Hahahahaha. The pain I'VE caused her? Compared to what you've done to her, I just stuck a thorn in her hand. Demonic Tarakudo: SHUT UP!! Im trying to do the best of my abilities to change it all. Ive changed myself just for her!! DON'T YOU DARE COMPARE YOURSELF WITH ME!!! Valkerie: Tara? Valkerie: Stay away from me. Tarakudo: Valkerie please you don't understand!! Valkerie: Leave me alone you monster! Tarakudo to himself: Am I really still a monster? Tarakudo: Please!! IVE CHANGED!! Valkerie: GO AWAY!!!!! Tarakudo: No. If you want me to leave you alone you'll have to kill me. Tarakudo's thought's: Am I really a Monster? Is there really no way of changing that? Maybe I should let her finish me . . . It'd help her. It'd keep her at peace. . . Valkerie: Please, just leave me alone. I need to think. Please..... Tarakudo: No Valkerie. You mean alot to me. I'm not going to leave your side. Valkerie: Please. Just leave. I need to think. Tarakudo: Forgive me. My monstrous presence will disturb your life no longer. Valkerie: NO!!! I just needed to calm down! DON'T DIE!!!! Valkerie: I love you. Please..... don't die. Viper: Lookssssssss like she finally got revenge. Rosetta: No hun. She would never succeed unless Tarakudo wanted it. Maybe he finally caved in. STEIN!! Dr. Stein: Yez yez vat's vong now? Dr. Stein: Urg I hate having to call zis baka. Shomebody call Leo now. I cannot believe I need hiz help. Rosetta: Why'd ya need his help freak? Dr. Stein: So cold Rozetta-Chwan. Zat blade also corrupt'z the shoul, Not shure if Valkerie knew zat but it doez and I cannot perform zis operation alone. I need anozer Medic, Sho Call him in sho we can shave our commander. Viper: Sssssssssssssssssssssshave? Dr. Stein: NO!! SHAVE I MENT SHAVE!!! Rosetta: He ment save you idiot!! Rosetta: It's ok babe, Tarakudo's strong. He will get through this. Come here babe. Valkerie: It was that acursed sword. I wish I had never taken it up. I'll toss it into the ocean if that will bring him back. Rosetta: Freak? Whens Leo showing up? Dr. Stein: Sho cold Rozetta shwan. He vill be here shortly. Rosetta: Oi Freak , Whydo ya hate that babe anyway? Dr. Stein: He iz an Imbecile, Hiz Medical skill'z are unimaginable for shuch an idiot. It's completely ridiculous. Leo: Alright!! We got ourselves a challenge!!! Ruby: Umm What do you want me to do with the . . . uhhh . . sword Leo? uhh Babe uhh hun uuhhh sorry . . Leo: I want you two . . Leo: KICK IT!!! IN THE SHINS!!! Dr. Stein: You see? He iz a Imbecile!! Valkerie: Maybe I should have called Ishi. Leo: No need for that. Besides, she slaps me whenever we meet. My face still aches from the party the last time we were together. Valkerie: Leo, I swear, if you don't focus and save Tara, I'm going to stab YOU with the sword. Leo: That's not very nice . . . He's all good . .after all I am in the room! heheheeeeee Leo: This Blade is a nuisance. . . I can't see how you live with it Valkerie . . It seem's . . . Dark and . . manipulative. . . Leo: Now if my theory is correct, This herb will cause a co-reaction with this one creating a byosysticular remedy in which I must crush into powder and apply. Valkerie: As long as it saves him, I don't care. Leo: Neither do I Valkerie, Neither do I. Leo: Listen Valkerie, I have called the other Skyline's and they will be here soon. But trust me. Everything Tarakudo has done since joining the Skyline's, has been for you. Valkerie: What? For me? Why? Leo: That is not my place. Nor is it Nova's. You'll have to ask Tarakudo if he wakes. But my admittance is this, You should not forgive him for the fact myself and Nova and most other's claim he's good, Your forgiveness to him is only to be given for your own decision. I doubt you'll leave his side as you've been sat there since I put him there so I will give you his prescription of medicine if I should not be around at the time. Valkerie: Tell Silver and My friends not to come. I don't want them to see me like this. Leo: It's a good thing I'm a good people's person . . It's actually only Nova's ship coming . . meaning only Nova and the REH units . . hehe Nova: Strange . . Valkerie has never been parted from this sword in my knowledge. Nova: It appear's Valkerie now has an emotion greater than her lust for revenge . . . I wonder . . Nova: Good Morning Valkerie. Nova: Tear's fall for a reason. You don't have to hide behind the tough guy act. I know how it feels. Valkerie: It's all my fault. If I hadn't called him a monster, he wouldn't have stabbed himself. Nova: I should never have brought Rose on my crew . . . she'd still be here if I hadn't . . . You arn't to blame Valkerie. Your action's were what fate had decided. If Tarakudo died now he would have been happy you'd finally gotten your revenge. But. I know him, this won't kill him, Not now he has you. Valkerie: What do you mean by "he has me"? Why am I so Goddamn important? Nova: You caused him to fight back the Demon Kralak. The moment he saw you cry, He fell for you. This isn't my place to say but~ Tarakudo: V-V-Valk...erie... Nova: He Love's you. Valkerie: I love him too. Nova: That's good. Please Valkerie. Promise me you won't do anything stupid. I don't want either of you to feel the pain I have when I lost . . . lost Rose. Valkerie: I won't lose him. I've been hiding behind my fury for too long. No more. Nova: Good. Well . . . Im not even really needed here . . . I guess I'l be going again, See you whenever! Valkerie: Please....... Not yet. Nova: Hm? I don't see how a mopy bugger like myself will help you my dear. Valkerie: It's just.... I can't explain it, but....... I feel like I can be myself around you. Nova: Hmm . . . I see . . Ok then I will stay, But the moment Tarakudo awake's il be gone ok? I don't think he'll like the fact I show up every time he's hurt. . He'll think I underestimate him . . Valkerie: That's fine. Nova: You make a good duo. It seems Fate had set you two to be together since the dawn of existence. I'm happy for you both. Valkerie: Thanks. Tarakudo: V-Valkerie. . . Valkerie!! Valkerie: Tarakudo!! Valkerie: Don't you EVER do that again. Tarakudo: Im so sorry Val . . I mean Valkerie. . Valkerie: You can call me Val. My parents use to call me that so I don't mind. Tarakudo: That's nice of y~ Nova: You see!! Thats File:Bsymbol.gif1,000,000 please!! Leo: Dammit man!! How did you know they'd fall in love!? Nova: Im surprised you didn't think the same . . . I mean yes they were once both cold hearted but everyone has a soul . . Leo: Yeah yeah blah blah . . Nova: So. The question is now how is Tarakudo's soul sustaining? Leo: Well. . . Im only a Doctor . . not a voodoo man . . . But according to research from several libraries, His soul is completely stable, However I can see a decreased presence of Kralak . . . meaning his soul is dying down . . meaning Tarakudo is coming closer to~ Nova: Complete and utter obedience . . Leo: I WAS GUNNA SAY THAT!!! Nova: hehe sorry. . Nova: How are you and Ruby?? Leo: We are doing great as usual. I love her for her and she love's me for me. Are you ok Nova we havn't really had much of a conversation since you came back from your . . . umm well to be frank your revenge spree you seem to be fine? How does one change through the death of other's? Nova: To be honest Leo. I tried to take my own life. While half dead I Met Rose's soul, she convinced me to keep on living for both her and I. Now I know what I am going to do with the rest of my life. Leo: I see . . . and what's that? Nova: Im going to find the find the fountain of youth!! Im going to call all our divisions in and my baby bro and we are going to having one grand drink from the fountain of youth!! Leo: BAKA!! YOU KNOW HOW MANY IDIOTS HAVE DIED LOOKING FOR THAT CURSED PLACE!!! Nova: Yup. Leo: BAKAA!!!! Nova: Indeed. but I trust you all, It's mine. . . no . . Mine and Rose's dream to see that place. I'l do it alone if I have to. Leo: *Sigh* Il alway's have your back dude. Rose was my friend aswell. If it's yours and her dream then I'm in. When do you plan on looking. . . Nova: No Idea . . . Leo: BAKA!!!!!!!!! Nova: Well I said to Valkerie once Tarakudo wakes up I'll be gone and I guess theyre probably talking now so I'll contact you once I get some more intel on the Fountain ok. Stay defending your home island's under the name of the Skyline's! Tarakudo: . . . A. . . Am . . .I . . .I-in . . . H-h-heaven? Valkerie: Nope. If you had died, you'd be in hell remember? Valkerie: Besides, if you were in heaven, You wouldn't have a hole in your chest. Tarakudo: I see . . You drive a good point. . . Although If im not in heaven . . then why is someone as beautiful as an angel with me? Valkerie: Because someone just as beautiful is with her. Now shut up. Your demon is healing you and I refuse to let you get up until that hole is gone. Valkerie: God..... I wonder if this is how Silver and Senshi felt after the War. Valkerie: Wow. The hole's gone. How do you feel Tara? Tarakudo: I feel happy Val. Valkerie: Do you want to know why I've never stopped trying to kill you? Tarakudo: Disturbingly, Yes I do. Valkerie: It's not for revenge of my parents or even for my island. It's because........ I didn't want to admit it. Tarakudo: Admit what? Valkerie: That I'd fallen in love with you. Valkerie: Are you okay? I think three doctors visits is enough for one day. Tarakudo: I . . . I. . . . Im fine. . . And . . . . I-i-i . . . uhhh. . . Love you. Valkerie: I love you too. Now shut up and kiss me you baka. Leo: Ooooh hehe . . Love is in the air. Well, I can see your all good! I'll be leaving now, I've got to pass a message on to the other Division Commander's. So . . . Seeya!! Valkerie: Wow. Definately something Nova would do. Here, read this while I go assassinate Leo. Valkerie: GET BACK HERE YOU PERVERTED IMBECILE OF A DOCTOR!!! Tarakudo: That's our Captain. Valkerie: That baka is fast. So..... What now? Tarakudo: You ready? Valkerie: You know...... I am.
