Nero POV

I wake up on the ground cold, surrounded by blood. Mariena is on the ground to, she has a wound in her shoulder leaking onto the floor, causing the blood puddle. Her beautiful body laying there unconcious. I cant help but admire her beautiful black and blue hair that frames her face, her pure black eyes, and her cute little nose. I finaly convince myself to get up and help her. I pick her up, and lay her on the table. She moans deeply and in pain. "Its ok, everything is going to be ok." I tell her. I start sewing her up. Every stich causing a new moan. Once i am done, i wrap her arm up to keep her from messing up her stiches. Once i have finished my task, she wakes up. Fully concious now, she sits up and turns her body, painfully, to the right. Her legs now dangling off the side of the table. She looks at me, and then she sees the puddle of blood behind me. She starts to look worried and asks "where are the others? And who's blood is that on the ground?" I smile at her and help her off the table. "That blood" i point to her arm and say "belongs to you. I woke up and you were next to me, losing unspeakabke amounts of blood, so i decided I would stich you up and then go look for the others. But since you are up and seem to be fine, do you want to help look? You take the upstairs, if you see anyone, holler and i will be there." She nods her head yes, making her beautiful hair bounce on her shoulders, and starts heading up the stairs. I inspect the downstairs. Not a soul. I decide to go upstairs and help Mariena, but she is already comming down the stairs, shaking her head. No one. These men took Josh and Yui. They are going to pay. I close my eyes tightly, concentrating. Im trying to pin-point their location through telepathy.

Mariena POV

While Nero is  concentrating, he starts trembling so hard the floor is starting to shake. I pull him close and try to lend him strength. I cant help admire his jet black hair, and those cute kissable lips. Ok, ill admit it. I might have a slight crush on Nero. Nero slowly stops trembling, and opens his eyes. Right now, his eyes are black, like mine. Same as his hair. We stare into each others eyes for a moment, not knowing what to do, i let go of him. He then realizes i was staring, and gets down to buisness. "I found them" he says. A smile starts to form,  drawing his lips up into a cute smile. "They are being help inside a ababdoned warehouse, a couple blocks from here." I get over excited, and push my face up to his, smashing our lips together. He starts to kiss back, but then realizes what is going on. He then quickly pulls away, with a dumb founded smile on his face. "Come on, Riena, not now. We need to find them as soon as possible. We dont know what could be happening to them right now." I look at him, secretly loving the new nickname, "im sorry, i-i-i didnt mean to, i just got over excited and, well, you know..." the words barley escaping my lips before he responds. "N-n-no. Its fine, um, i, um, didnt mind it actually." He blushes. "Maybe we can continue once we find Josh and Yui?" I say nervously. "Totaly" he says. We walk outside,on our way to the abandoned warehouse to find our friends, and torture and murder the douch that took them. He reaches for my hand, and takes it. "Is this ok?" He asks. I intertwine my fingers with his. "I think this answers your question." We walk in silence, holding hands, on our way to the warehouse.
