Atlantic had gotten a call from someone telling him to meet at a warehouse by the harbour.
It was around midnight when 'Tic reached the dark building and entered. As soon as he did lights came on all around and infront of him stood another hitman. No one had said anything but Atlantic just knew right away what, and who he was. Tic walked up to a table in the middle of the room where the other man stood. All around he heard snickers and whispers about him. Atlatnic took in all of his surroundings then looked at the man.
"You must be the 'Atlatnic' everyone is talking about." the man said slowly.
"Yes i am him."
"Well then it is honestly a plasure to meet you. I am Julian. New president of the hitman occult."
"Heh. So what'd you need me for?"
"There is talk about you, Atlatnic. Talk that one day you will steal my life and in doing so, steal my job."
Atlantic looked at Julian, "I have no intentions of taking your life, let alone your job. I work alone."
Julian stepped back slightly. Atlatnic was hit over the head from behind, knocked out cold. Once he awoke he looked around again and saw Julian talking to a woman where he had been only minuets ago. Whith his eyes blurred he could not see it was Ruri.
"Hey look he's awake." one of Julian's men laughed and kicked Atlantic in the stomach.
Tic winced but didn't take his eyes from Ruri. "What are you planning to do to her?" He asked, in pain.
"We plan .. to kill'er."
Atlatnic's heart skipped a beat. 'Kill her? Why !' he wanted to yell but it hurt so bad, that he couldn't.

Ruri was unaware that Tic was also here. She had been called about a wallet she had found a day earlier.
Julian talked to her for a while, trying to build trust in her. Making killing here all the more fun.
Tenrai sat in his apartment on the bed by the window. Something deep inside hurt him. 'Poor poor Ruri .. Why didn't i stop her? One of them will die, its up to fate to decide that.' he thought and got up, looking out the window. 'Still i can help to wonder ... did he really love her as much as it seems?'

Atlantic tried to tell Ruri to run, but it was obvious that while he was out cold, Julian had let his men beat him so he couldn't move or talk. He tried reaching for his gun, but his fingers couldn't feel it at his waist.
Julian pulled a gun at Ruri, who was now being held by two other men. The smirk on Julian's face, and the fear in Ruri's eyes made Atlantic furious. He ground his teeth and got up as a shot was fired.
'Tic had made it infron of her, blocking her with his own body. "Ren !!!" Ruri yelled as he fell back into her arms. She fell to her knees holding him, crying. "Ren ... you-you saved me."

The pain is Tenrai's chest became worse. 'Ren ... no .. ' he thought and ran to the door grabbing his coat and heading to the place he had seen in his dreams.
Julian walked over to Ruri and 'Tic. He stopped and sighed, "What a shame ..." he said holding the gun carelessly.

"Ren ... Ren c'mon. You gotta be ok. You just have to." Ruri cried, shaking him slightly. Her tears soaked his jacket.
'Tic could hear her calling him but couldn't get up. Suddenly he was back with her at the theater, the place they first kissed. 'Ive gotta protect her ....' he thought and his eyes shot open.
"Ren !!" Ruri cried happily.
'Tic sat up slowly and looked at the gun in Julian's hand He quickly got up and kicked it out of his hand catching it. He felt dizzy and looked to the ground at his own blood. He shook it off and aimed the gun at Julian. "Ruri, get out of here." He told her, not taking his eyes from Julian.

Ruri stood up quickly and held on to the back of his coat, "Only if you promise you will be there. Ill only leave if you promise me Ren !" she said.

Julian had looked around for a new weapon. While he was distracted, Atlatnic turned quickly and kissed Ruri. "Don't worry. I always keep a promise." he said and turned back to Julian. "Now run!" he yelled back at her.
Ruri looked at him. "Ren ...." she whispered.
"Ruri ! Go !" he yelled again.
She jumped and ran towards the door.

Julian saw Ruri heading to the door and smirked. "Atlantic you fool. You have just shown me your weakness." He shot at Tic.

Atlantic fell to the ground facing Ruri. Another shot was fired and Ruri fell to the ground as well. Atlantic's eyes burnt as the image of her falling played over in his mind. "r ... RURI !!" he got up , despite his wounds and ran to her. He held on to her tightly.
"Ren ..." she said weakly, looking at him. 'He .. is crying.' she thought. "You were never a ... bad person ...Ren. We .... both ... know that ...." He voice had slowed down. "Always know .... that .... i ........."
Her body became limp in his arms. "Ruri ... i understand." He held her and tears of his own fell to her.

Tenrai ran, in the rain to the horbour warehouse to find his friends.
Julian held a gun to Atlatnic's back. "If you wish to die you will not stop me. But if for some reason you live, that is because you have more purpose to your life. Lets see, shall we?"

"I will not allow myself to be killed by your hands !" Atlantic growled, swinging around and shooting Julian right in the throat. After that Atlatnic fell back to the ground next to Ruri.

Tenrai ran through the doors and stopped, looking at the two on the ground. 'Which one died?' he thought and ran to Atlantic's side. "Ren? Ren are you alive?" Tenrai asked looking at 'Tic, covered in blood and two shot wounds.

Atlantic's eyes opened at the voice of Tenrai. "She ... she died." Atlantic said saddly, not able to move again. "Tenrai, tell me honestly. Did you know about this?" he asked, his eyes looking as if he was looking into space.

"I would have done anything, ANYTHING, to make it me instead of her." Atlantic said.
