Three floors to go, in order to see her again?

Krion entered the tower and saw the two stairway which he took to reach the top during the last time he was here. He remembered how tiring it was just to climb all the way to the top. However this time he was going to do something different. He turned to his left and walk towards a statue of a devil, and pushed the belly button as though it was a button and awaited for something to happen. Sure enough, a door opened with a 'ting!' sound. He stepped into the rectangular shaped room and face the door.
He then pushed another button on the wall and soon the rectangular shapped room began rising upwards with the door closed.
"Aah, thank goodness to whoever invented the lift." Krion commented, happy that his legs were not going to be tortured.
Suddenly the lift stopped before it reached the third floor. The door opened and the very same reaper which Krion had just fought with stepped into the lift. Surprised a bit, Krion tried to start a conversation. "So...where's your other twin?"
"He's taking the stairs." the reaper replied trying not to feel akward.
"Did he knew about the lift?"
"Nope." the reaper replied almost giggling.
"Oh, poor him." Krion replied trying to hold back his laughter.
Soon they reached the third floor and went their seperate ways with the reaper phasing through the walls.

Meanwhile, on the top of the tower. Hien stood near the edge of a balcony, staring at the magnificent full moon that shone tonight. "He's going to be here soon." a girl's voice spoke breaking the silence.
"Is everything ready?" Hien replied as he turned back to face his younger sister.
Reina grabbed a mircophone and drew it at Hien while saying, "Would I be here if it was not?"
"Heh, it was just a formality."
Reina smiled and said, "I know." She then turned on the speakers in the hallway where Krion was.

Back at the hallway, "Attention, Godslayer. Or should I say, dear brother. You took longer then expected to arrive here, I was begining to fall asleep."
Krion reloaded his gun and was about to fire when, the voice spoke again. " Before you shoot, I've prepared something to motivated you. It's a song, that you should know very well."
Music soon started to fill up the atmosphere, with a voice singing in the background.

The first time,
When we set eyes.
And forget the tears that we shed.
How could I?
Ever bear to forget you?

"Rena?" Krion whispered as he heard the voice singing. As the song continued, many reapers began to asend from the last stairway. Soon, Krion was totally surrounded by reapers.

As I stared back at your crimson eyes,
All the loneliness,
Just suddenly vanquished.
Without a trace.
Without a doubt.
I know now.

Krion drew his twin blades, each sword had a dragon head before the blade stuck out. And now, the eyes of the swords were glowing bright red. Without saying a word, he swung his swords around him to gain some space before jumping into the air. Each word the voice sung was like a sword peircing through Krion's heart. Reminding him of what he had lost, what he couldn't protect.

You are always gonna be the one.
In my heart.
Now and forever till time sleeps on.
I remember your smile.
Just to carry on.
The love you gave me was, all I
Ever need.
Now I have the courage to follow my dreams.
I know I can still go on
With you in my heart.

Switching his weapons in mid air, he kicked a nearby wall and fired bullets along the way. Reaching the other side of the room, he switched back to his swords and made a mighty leap towards the reapers. And with one swift blow, he had already slayed half the reapers in this hallway.

Now that you were gone.
I find myself.
Lost, alone under the pale gray moon.
Oh how could you,
Even forget to say goodbye?

Once again my tears had shed.
Though I know you'll be back,
In the morning.
And at that time.
I'll be smiling back,
With you.

As the battle continued, one of the reapers was knocked so hard that it made a large hole in the wall. The moon's rays soon touched Krion's skin, his eyes now watery as he remembered what Rena had once asked him on such a night.

"If you were the moon, and I was the night.Would the light be drawn to your radiance...or be lured into my darkness?"

A philosophical question no doubt. However as she smiled underneath the moonlight from behind Krion. It struck him on how beantiful darkness was. How much comfort that one smile of the night gave him. Indeed, she was as comforting to him as the night sky which represents our dreams.

You will always have a place in my,
Lonely heart.
Now and forever till time sleeps on.
I'll remember your smile.
So please don't forget me.
Under the showers of the pouring rain.
So numb, so cold.
How oddly that,I'm still able to smile.
I remembered, that it was you
Who taught me how.

"I...I wish to see you again, please...let it be you. Standing there, waiting for me. I don't want to lose you again!" Krion cried out as he unleashed a dark wave of energy, wiping out the remaining reapers. 'Just behind this door. Please...let it be you.' Krion thought as he opened the door slowly.

You are always gonna be the one.
In my heart.
Now and forever till time sleeps on.
I remember your smile.
Just to carry on.
The love you gave me was,
All I ever need.
To make me smile again, I'll remember yours.
Now and forever.

To be continued...muhaha!
