[Woof]

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

[Snake grunts as he jerks awake, stiffly, since he fell asleep on the floor in the hallway real classy-like.  Next to him is an empty whiskey bottle.  He groans and runs his hands over his face and even though no one is around to see it, he's still embarrassed.  He hopes that he didn't do anything stupid.]

Hn?

[Something on his neck is 'itching' him.  Snake touches his neck to scratch and he feels something leathery.]

[He woke up with it on; a simple brown collar with soft, blue kidskin lining. He doesn't like it.  It has a damn ring on the front...where someone could potentially attach a lead.  Great.]

What...the Hell?

Why does this crazy shit always happen to me?

[This Nexus is really starting to get on his last nerve...and Snake's last nerve must be pretty strong-]

[He knew it. There was something fishy about this woman...]

Who are you to me in your time?

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She fidgeted]

An enemy...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

Hn.

I thought so.

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She sat on the floor not really wanting to say anything more about the matter]

...

[She pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them]

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

What...happened between us?

What did I do to you?

[He is extremely curious now.]

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She paused for a moment]

I was part of The Beauty and The Beast Unit, which consisted of Laughing Octopus, Raging Raven, Crying Wolf, and Myself. We were supposed to ki- stop you...

[She thought a little bit more]

You chased down our leader all over the world taking us down one by one until I was the only one left.

[She hugged her knees tighter]

I had thought that I would defeated you for sure... But alas it was not meant to be... In the end you won and I ended up here...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

Kill me?

...but I killed you first?

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

Yes... But I'm not sure if I actually died. I had closed my eyes at some point. But I had never heard any gunshots, or felt any pain... I'm not sure what happened...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

Hnn.

You were spared? I wish I knew what really happened...

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She looked up at him and shrugged]

I don't really care to find out...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

[He nods, understanding.]

Whatever I did: I'm sorry.

[He shakes his head trying to make sense of it all.]

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

You should not feel pity for a monster...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

 

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She held her face in her hands]

With all the terrible things I have done... I probably should be dead...

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

...I could say the same.

There's no point in that frame of thought.

[He sighs heavily.]

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

[She looked up at him again]

I suppose you are right.

[she got off the floor and sat on the end of the bed.]

How's your head feeling?

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

It hurts like Hell.

[screamingdolls.livejournal.com]

I suppose I should let you get some sleep then. I hope you start to feel better...

[She got off the bed and made her way to the door]

[saltpeppered.livejournal.com]

Hn.

[He rests his arm over his eyes and mentally prepares to sleep.]
