Freak Boy continued stroking her hair with his left hand, keeping ever vigilant and guarding the place as he drank a Red Bull to keep awake. He kissed the top of Iris's head as she went to sleep and smiled...
In less than two weeks, he had endured the following trials:
Two assassination attempts
Three attacks from the A.S.S.
An assault on the FRA
A smack that was equal to two punches from Erika
An attack from Zwei
A near death experience in which his spirit left his body
and having holes in his hands he could stick a pencil through...
But it was worth it to meet Iris.

Dan hears the dim sound of his phone ringing from under a blanket of sand. He wipes the sweat out of his eyes and looks up from the bag he's filling now. He's been having to fill bags with the sand so he can haul it out of the room. So far, he's gotten enough cleared to actually stand inside.
As to the phone... that'll have to wait. Dan sighs, and goes back to work.

"Perhaps it is something about passing from the nether realm to this physical world."
I sit for awhile, not looking over at Kakashi. Finally, I turn and speak to him.
"Kakashi, I... I know that we didn't part on the best terms. I'm sorry for that. I know that I have made mistakes, and I can acknowledge them. I just wanted you to know that I'm sorry."
I turn again and face forward.
It is amazing, the space that can form between two people with the passing of time and chance, especially when those two people could never seem to be close to begin with. Sitting only inches away from this elf, I feel as if there are miles between us. Even with another in the room, I suddenly feel very alone.
'This can't last,' my mind tells itself. I think of my new-found son, and the relationship that he wishes to build with me. I can see Kakashi in my home, looking almost normal sitting beside me on the couch, but it can't last. That is one surety in life, that which you have will someday leave you.

I knock on the door of Fascia's apartment. I hope that she answers the door. It has been far too long since I have seen my old pal, Fascia. I wonder how she is. Maybe we parted on a sour note.

My tumultuous thoughts are interrupted by a knock on the door. I imagine that it is Illidan again, perhaps he left something behind, or something unsaid.
When the door is opened, it is not Illidan, but Moira, my long-time friend. I am amazed to see her face. It has been so long. I can hardly believe my evening. I see no one for months and months, and then in one day everyone I have ever been close with comes to visit me.
"Moira! What a surprize. Come in, come in. It has been a day of surprizes. Look who is here: Kakashi."
I point to Kakashi, who is still sitting on the couch.
"Make yourself comfortable. It isn't much of an apartment, but it is home for now."

Kakashi scratches at the wrapping around his face. "I know. Maybe we just weren't ment to be... but it's weird." Kakashi figits, "It feels familiar..." he says, refuring to the feeling in his skin, "d**n, these things are really itchy." He turns towards the door and sees Moria. "Moria. It's been a long time." He stands and offers a wrapped hand. "How've you been?"

"Hello Kakashi." I say indifferently. I never liked Kakashi.
"Fascia, I just wanted to see how you were doing. I was thinking about the good times we had long ago."

Kakashi scratches at his wrappings, finally standing with a small yell of frustration. "d**n it! Never bothered me before..." He reaches up and begins to unwrap his head covers. "Sorry but I'm gonna have to fix these. Freakin' curse..."

"Oh, I'm doing alright. I have just been going along from one day to the next, you know. How are things at the Leage of the Godless? How's Akira?"
I watch as Kakashi unwraps his bandages.
"Do you need any help with that"

"It is good to see you. I haven't see Akira for a while, but we are planning on getting married."

Kakashi pulls away the last layer of wrapping, revealing his face.
But something is wrong. Where, the last time he had been around, his features had been sharp and harsh, his skin covered with black marks, his eyes blood red, and very evil looking. But now...
His hair is blonde and long, his skin fair and soft. He looks like he first looked a year ago when he first met Fascia. And he doesn't seem to be aware of it!
"Wow. I haven't taken these off for... well since I left really." He looks around, "Do you have a mirror? I want to see if the curse got worse."

"Wow Kakashi, you look pretty hot, too bad you are guy! You would make a really pretty girl with that lovely blonde hair."

"Getting married? Wow, that is a big step. I didn't know that... Kakashi!" I gasp out.
I walk up to him and look at his face, now so different than the last time I saw him. Without thinking, I reach up a hand and touch his cheek. This face brings back so many memories...
Suddenly, aware of what I am doing, I drop my hand again and take a step back, smiling.
"Sorry, I just... well, yeah, I have a mirror. There's one in the bathroom, above the sink."

"Long blonde hair...? What're you talking about?" Kakashi walks into the bathroom and after a moment of silence there is a very loud exclaimation in elvish and Kakashi runs back out into the living room. "Is your mirror broken or am I seeing things?! My face! I mean... what... it's back to normal?"

"It's wonderful. How can this be? What about the curse?"
I am amazed at the transformation. I don't understand it at all.
