49My Jesus. I've let you all down. I should certainly say my hiatus was uncalled for, and out of the blue. Please forgive me! I really didn't mean to mess up the story line so bad, plus a lot of the nursing terms and sicknesses don't really make sense. Eh, I'm really bad at writing... well, good thing this is just fanfiction isn't it?
Don't you just hate it when the bad guy you based your bad guy off of turns out to be good in the actual story? Ashura, you suck balls. (not really, you were pretty cool, it just sucked that you had to turn good. Now I don't have good villains in my stories...)
Erm, hopefully things will be better explained in this chapter, but then again, I don't even know how its going to turn out. Let's hope for the best!
Wight- a supernatural man-like being

Fai glanced at the door, a little shocked.
"H-He's coming? What do you mean?" The blond whimpered, feelings flooding into his already horrid thoughts. Kurogane stood, one thing on his mind as he stormed out of the room. Fai looked at the children. Sakura and Syaoran stood, holding the babies closely. Fai bit his lip, waving the others to him.
"Let's put the children to sleep, shall we?" He smiled weakly before he turned on his heel.
After Syaoran and Sakura had agreed to stay with the infants in their nursery, Fai went to Kurogane. The doctor stopped dead when he saw the officer cocking his gun.
"W-What do you plan on doing, Kuro-chi?!" He cried out softly with wide eyes. The dark haired man grunted in reply as he stood. He went to his lover and looked at him.
"He won't do it again." He hissed vehemently, making Fai shiver. Kurogane walked passed Fai and headed for the front door. The blond caught his arm before he could actually reach it though.
"K-Kuro-love! You can't actually kill him!" He pleaded with round eyes. The taller gritted his teeth.
"I have to. If I had a vision about him, that can only mean he's going to harm someone I care for. I'm not going to stand by and let it happen." He leaned down and kissed his lover before he shook him off. He placed his gun in its holster and he put his jacket on. Before Fai could stop him, the tan one had left.

The police officer made his way to the park. He was at a brisk pace, knowing that the park was only 5 minutes away and he was too angry to drive. He had just turned the corner when he saw what he wanted to see. Ashura was sitting at a bench and reading a book. Kurogane growled deep in his throat, approaching the other. When he was about ten feet away, he pulled out his gun. Ashura looked up slightly and smiled as he gently closed his book.
"Well, if it isn't the officer who took my beloved Fai into his awful grasp and planted his dirty seed into him. How pleasant to see you, child." He said lucidly as his smile widened. Kurogane felt his grimace strengthen.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, asshole? Leave Fai alone." He commanded darkly, his finger gliding down to the trigger. The other continued to smile.
"You plan to shoot me? After I have done nothing? I've already served my time for what you accused me of first."
"You're still a danger to my family-"
"Family? What family? Have you been screwing my angel?" Ashura stood, his smile turning bitter.
"You must know that Fashu wasn't Fai's in the first place. He just adopted him as his own when he moved in with me. And he certainly isn't worth being a mother to any child. He's not good enough." Kurogane felt his face flush as anger built up even more.
"What the fuck do you think your saying!? He's worth more than you will ever know you damned asshole!" He shouted as he pulled the trigger. But instead of hitting the target like Kurogane was sorely wishing it would, it hit the park bench, becoming wedged in the wood. Ashura had successfully avoided the metal. Kurogane's eyes widened; never had he seen anyone move that fast. And before he could react, Ashura moved swiftly to his side and pushed him with so much force the darker skinned man flew a few feet into a tree. Kurogane looked skeptically at Ashura, his eyes wide as the other dusted his hands. The yellow eyed one noticed his shock and smiled wildly.
"Oh? Did I surprise you, good sir? Have you yourself not been gifted with the mechanics?" He chuckled deeply when confusion washed over the other. Ashura lifted up his pant leg and cut into his leg. No blood came forth though, like the red eyed man expected, but the glistening of steel shone in the dull sunlight of the fading evening. The longer haired man smiled wider.
"Something happened in the prison and caused me to get some... adjustments done. I assume your crash gave you something similar." He pulled his clothing back into place as he walked over to Kurogane. He watched the other try to stand, but he delivered a painfully fast kick to Kurogane's side, sending him into another tree. This time he went so fast he broke his body print into the tree. The taller coughed wickedly as he slid to the ground. He panted as he watched Ashura approach him again, but this time his left hand caught the foot aiming for his side again. He was stunned when he heard a click come from his wrist. The click was definitely not human. The ex-doctor smiled at Kurogane.
"So you see now..." He said smoothly as he retracted his foot from Kurogane's grip. The officer stood quickly, feeling his side. The bruise was bad, but nothing broken. He looked at Ashura, his anger boiling away into confusion. His body... what had happened? The doctors and nurses didn't say anything to him nor Fai about added medical assistance.
"W...what..." He murmured as he stared at his hands. Before any other pondering could happen, Ashura attacked him again, linking his hands with Kurogane's in a strength battle. Kurogane could clearly feel his right hand strain under the pressure of the others hand's unnatural coolness and vigor, but his left hand was forcing back with just as much power. His feet secured himself in the dirt, pushing Ashura back slightly. The bewilderment on Kurogane's face melted to determination as he shoved Ashura to his knees, who just smiled as the strain bled on his face threw sweat.
"So... Y...you see your power..." He whispered, his voice exerting the most it could. The taller just grinned evilly in response before he forced Ashura an inch into the ground. His mind was racing with the evil thoughts of murder suddenly as he raised his left hand. His eyes were wide and wild as he stared at the one who lay before him. Something in his mind clicked, and he realized what he was actually planning. Kurogane forcefully pulled back as he sat on his knees, gasping for air that he didn't realize he was missing. He looked at his hands again. They were both rubbed raw from the shear force of the two strengths combined. One was bleeding and muscle was visible. The other was shining just as Ashura's had. So he spoke the truth. That meant that...
He looked down at his legs. They were broken as well... Could his knees have been replaced? Now that he thought back, he had ran a lot faster than he meant to several times. Plus when he gripped Fai's arm that time in the hospital, he seemed to have hurt him... And what the hell had happened to his mind just then? He had had no control for a split second... Oh gods, what had happened?!
He stood shaking, not looking back at Ashura until he retrieved his gun. The other seemed to be on the brink of unconsciousness.
"This is a warning, asshole. Come near to Fai, me, or my children again, and it will be a lot worse..." He warned with a growl. And with that, he walked home.

Fai found himself pacing in the nursery, his actions ranging only between worrying about Kurogane and bouncing one of his children around happily or feeding them. He was in the middle of turning left when he heard the front door click. He raced down stairs, noticing Syaoran and Sakura's doors were closed and their lights were off, and searched frantically for Kurogane. He gasped when he saw the blood on Kurogane's boots, and he could see a slight trail go through to the kitchen.
"Kuro-chi! Kuro-chi! What happened!?" He cried out, looking into the kitchen. He saw the taller washing his hand in the sink, grimacing in the light pain the wound had caused him. The blond looked at the wound to the face of his loved one.
"What happened?" He repeated, noticing the metal in the left hand. The officer looked away.
"I don't really know. I met up with him at the park and... Do you know anything about robotics used to replace limbs?" He asked, finally facing his companion. Fai blinked.
"Yes, but..." He looked down at the others hand again. He paused, placing two and two together when he reached down and picked up the taller's hand to examine it. The skin had eroded away by rubbing to show the existence of a steel palm. Fai's eyes widened before they met Kurogane's.
"You... You have..."
"I assume I have replacement legs too... did anyone tell you about this?" He asked harshly as he turned off the water. Fai shook his head slowly, noticing the skin was still real on the metal.
"Will I heal?" He heard his husband say. Fai looked down.
"I hope so." he smiled weakly up again, but noticed that the grimace wasn't going away. The doctor tilted his head to the side a little.
"...What happened? What is it?" He asked softly. Kurogane scowled.
"He too had something like this done... He was too fast... He dodged my bullet and attacked me... I don't know how it happened... It was so fast... I couldn't think clearly..." He mumbled, looking at Fai. He sighed and started to walk to the bathroom for medical supplies.
"Something tells me that this fight didn't end the war... Fai... we might be in deeper than we thought..." The doctor grabbed his chest, following his lover.

The dark haired man sat upon his bed as he stared at the sunrise. His bandaged hands rest in his lap as his eyes stared blankly into the orange clouds. He heard his lover rustle next to him, sitting up in bed.
"Kuro...?"
"...Your son..." He replied softly. Fai blinked, rubbing his eyes.
"Which one?"
"The one you forgot...You didn't say he wasn't yours..." Fai's eyes widened before he looked down.
"Ashura told you that didn't he?" He said gently, his hands messing with the hem of the blanket. Kurogane grunted, his eyes looking down too. Fai bit his lip, blue orbs wondering to the others face.
"Yeah... He wasn't my son biologically... He was Ashura's... but I loved him as my own anyway... I raised him for two years and I had completely forgotten he wasn't mine..." The room went silent in the morning mist, the two males contemplating the little one.
"Do you think... he'd forgive me... if he knew...?" Fai whispered, his head bowing in self-loathing. Kurogane looked at the blond, frowning.
"Probably not, but I'm sure if you'd ask, he would. I'm sure if you treated your new children differently, he would." He saw Fai raise his head, blushing slightly at the wisdom spoken. He smiled.
"You know I will... and Fashu will too."
