[ON HOLD AT THE MOMENT] This is going to be story I wish and this time I will finished.
It is a forgotten time, thousands of years in the past. Dragons roamed the skies and magic surrounded the world. You follow the story of Murai Tetsu, A 19 year b...
We took some shelter from the sandstorm. Zero was out of it, starting to cool down. She looked like she was having a dream in her sleep. She Suddenly woke up and started panting. She started looking around and saw me next to her.
Murai: A bad dream?
Zero: .....Where are we?
Murai: We're behind some cover form the sandstorm. We lost the others while trying to continue forward.
Zero: .....
Their was a bit of silence between us as we waited for the storm to settle down. Next thing I noticed my arm slipped and touched her prosthetic arm. I pulled my arm back immediately making it less awkward. So I tried to talk to her to pass the time away.
Murai: So... I told you my backstory, what's your's.
She was surprised and looked down.
Zero: .....
Murai: It's alright. You don't have to tell me.
Zero: No! .....You deserve to know.
She then began to explain more about her past to me.
Zero's POV:
Zero: For the longest time, I had no real given name. My oldest memory is my mother. She would whip me back constantly until she lost all sensations on it. I thought that she was only raising me in the only way she knew and didn't I blame her for her cruelty. I accepted long ago that I was an unwanted child and a bothersome pest to my mother's livelihood. Later on, my mother sold me off to prostitution. I was caught by people from the brothel and brought back after trying to runaway. Eventually, Something in me snapped and I decided to kill everyone in the brothel and to make an escape by myself. I barely escaping from being sold into prostitution again. I then decided to only take as much money as I needed from then on.
After I told Murai that, he was pretty quiet.
Murai: So you don't have real name, do you?
Zero: I did, once I was sold off. They called me Rose sense my mother never gave me a name.
Murai: .........I'm sorry.
Zero: Don't be. I'm discusting anyway.
Murai: No your not!
Zero: Huh?
Murai: We can't change the past. But... I don't care what you were. That's not the Zero I know right now.
Zero: ......
Murai: Your strong. You've got a bit of a temper and very easy to piss off but... I can tell you don't want to be left alone.
I looked at him and was confused, but I felt the feeling again, deep inside my chest. He held me as if I was someone he cared about. I don't know why I was feeling this way still. But for some reason I felt like I wasn't alone anymore. He broke off the hug leaving me confused and I blushed abit.
Murai's POV:
Zero looked like she needed a hug. So I hugged her. Once I broke off, she was blushing while looking away. I didn't care what Zero was in the past. No one should have to go through something like that, even if they think they were a mistake. I put my right arm on Zero's cheek and looked her in the eye. I wanted her to trust me when I said it. Although I didn't realize that I was falling for her even more.
Zero: Hm?
Murai: N-Nothing. (Blushing) One more thing.
Zero:?
Murai: What did you mean by you were already dead?
Zero: ....
Murai: Did you actually die?
Zero: .....Yes. .....But, this flower brought me back from the dead.
Murai: What?
Zero didn't tell me anything else.
Murai: B-But your alive right now!
Zero: No I'm... I'm...
I grabbed her shoulders telling her the truth.
Murai: You are alive. I don't care if you did die once or something. You're still alive, right here in front of me.
She then blushed again and with right arm started caressing my cheek making me blush.

Zero: Eversince I met you, I've have had this annoying feeling in my chest. But It felt warm. like I wasn't alone. I can't feel pain. I'm starting to become less human as the days go on, thanks to this damn Flower. But when It comes to you, I still feel something that I guess reminds me.... that I'm still human.
Murai: Look, that Flower doesn't decide who you are. (Blushing) Your you.... That's all that matters.
Zero: ...Mu...rai...
She then moved her closer to me. I don't think she realized what she was doing. It was like she wanted something. Our faces were close. Any closer and we'd kiss. But then-
Dito: Now theirs a sorry sight.
We both looked in front of us and noticed the others. We quickly backed off each other and looked away from each other. Realizing that the storm died down.
Zero: L-Let's go!
Murai: (Blushing).....
We continued on through the desert and found the entrance to the Shrine of Sands. Lailah and Mikhail found us. They told us because of the magic and the storm it made it hard to help us. They joined us as we headed inside the shrine to find the Intoner Two.
