Belldandy stood up and started to walk towards the house. Megumi 
and Urd followed. As they reached the porch they slipped off their 
shoes and stepped inside the open door. When they entered the hallway 
they got a sudden chill when they heard a scream coming from the 
living room. "What was that!?!" Belldandy said as she jumped to the 
sudden sound. "Oh it was probably Skuld fighting with the computer 
again. Don’t worry about it." Urd said as they continued down the 
hallway. They reached Keichi’s door and stopped. Urd reached for the 
door knob and tried to turn it. It wouldn’t twist. It was locked! 
She jiggled it again more aggressively. She turned to look at 
Belldandy who had a confused look. Urd backed up to the wall behind 
her and ran full speed towards the door. She hit it and fell to the 
ground. Grabbing her shoulder that was throbbing with pain she 
exclaimed "Oh God that smarts!" She stood back up and looked at the 
door "Well I just don’t get it" She sighed as she turned to walk 
back towards the living room. But before she could take a step she 
heard something, a creaking sound. She turned and looked at Belldandy 
who was looking at the door. The door sprung open. They looked at 
each other. "What in the world is going on" Belldandy finally spoke. 
Belldandy peeked inside. There was no signs of any kind of 
extraterrestrial life so she walked in. Belldandy got a little 
scared so she turned around and motioned for Urd to come in. "Uh-uh, 
no way, your on your own now sis, there is no way I am going in 
there!" Urd replied shaking her finger from side to side in a no-no 
kind of way. Urd turned and walked past the door into her room, 
slamming the door behind her. She plopped on the bed and crossed her 
legs as she sighed and stared at the ceiling. "Oh come to think of 
it I am kind of ~yawn~ tired" she moaned as she began to close her 
eyes. Meanwhile Belldandy continued to walk into the room. It was 
pitch black as if she was blind. She couldn’t even see her hand when 
she waved it in front of her face. She turned back towards the door 
and it slammed shut. She walked back towards the door to where the 
light switch was. She tripped over a pile of clothes and stumbled to 
the floor. She could feel that she had scraped her knee. She stood 
back up slowly and put her arms in front of her like you would if you 
were sleep walking. She quietly walked towards the wall. She walked 
very slowly, with her feet not lifting off the ground and stepping 
toes first so that she wouldn’t fall again. Her finger touched the 
wall. She swept her hand repeatedly against it trying to find the 
light switch. She finally found it and switched it back on. She 
looked at her knee now that she could finally see what she was 
looking at. There was a tiny scrape nothing that a Band-Aid couldn’t 
cover. She walked back over to his bed. There was a chair next it. 
She grabbed the arm of the chair and moved it towards her and slowly 
sat down. She put her gentle hand on top of his and said softly to 
him "I am sorry we couldn’t spend more time together. I miss you so 
much already. I can’t believe you are gone." A tear left a wave of 
sadness as it rolled off her cheek to the floor beneath her. She 
whipped the tears off her face, her hand felt so cold against her 
cheek. She put her hand to his forehead and ran her fingers down 
his dull face, feeling every niche, every crease, and every wrinkle. 
She moved the bangs out of his face. His hair so soft and shiny, 
almost lively. She stared at his blank expression, and his lifeless 
body, the soul that had been completely drained out of him that she 
had loved so much, that kept her moving every day. An inspiration 
to her life, all gone. No hope left, just sorrow. "You have no idea 
what it is like." She whispered gently in his ear. She climbed into 
the bed and laid down next to him. She put her hand on his bare 
chest and swiftly swayed her hand up and down his chest. She rested 
her hand on his shoulder. Her eyes became blurry as she could feel 
the tears start to come. She tried to hold them in but the pain, 
the agony, it hurt so much. She looked up at the side of his face, 
"You don’t know how much I love you and I guess now you will never 
know." The tears began to fall, rolling off the side of her face 
and hitting the pillow. "I need you Keichi, please, please come 
back" she said to him knowing he couldn’t hear her. She kept thinking 
he was there just sleeping that he would wake up soon, but on the 
inside she knew he was gone, gone for good. She didn’t know what 
to do. She leaned her head over and kissed the side of his cold dead 
face with her soft lips. All she knew was that the only thing left, 
was love.
