The question had sunken deep into Key's head just as easily as her knives drove into Preston's body. However Kiri never would have imagined that this would have been the question to explode her mind. Kiri thought for sure that the determined revenge seeking girl from three above all others would have been fighting for something other than her own prolonged life. Yet it would appear as he saw her eyes desperatley searching for an answer that she didn't have anything to fight for. The Key to District Three was simply killing to live, she was destroying other people's lives just to return to her's where no one would be waiting. Dark Key, Darker than I ever thought you were. As much as Kiri desired to interrupt her thinking with some sort of snide comment he chose not to. The total break down he could tell she was going through was enough for him. However he could also feel rage bubbling up from deep inside him due to her reaction. Rhyme. Key had killed Rhyme and for no fucking reason. She had slaughtered her simply for revenge with nothing to gain from it except bloody hands.
Kiri forced himself to calm down as he felt his hands shaking with anger. Part of Kirito wanted to argue that we were also just like Key but Kiri could tell Kirito even knew they weren't. The tribute before him was killing practically just to kill and it would appear that Kiri had finally dragged that realization to the surface of her mind. Good, Kiri thought as he continued to watch her crumbling from the inside out, You should suffer.
Eventually Key made up some horrid excuse for her reason to fight. Kiri snorted at the ridiculous answer about how she had to fix a clock. If she had been there seventeen years then she should have been able to fix it by now. In fact Kiri is just about to voice that very thing to her but her fingers wrap viciously around his collar as Kiri grips his knife ready to stab. Yet he nearly drops the knife as her lips lock into place with his.
Tidal waves of emotions slam against Kiri's mind as both he and Kirito are utterly blown away by these actions. However Kiri could tell that the kiss they were sharing was not a normal kiss. No, he could feel the bitter hatred they were both sharing for one another in the taste of her dried lips. Still though Kiri couldn't break himself away from her since he was literally frozen with shock. Never once before did Kiri feel as vulnerable as he did in this moment. It made him sick to his stomach that they were even touching none the less kissing.
Finally though Kiri watches as the girl falls back into the water sending droplets scattering through the air. Each of them stare at one another with eyes wide full of terror and disbelief. They did not like each other. They sure as hell did not love each other. For Ripred's sake they hated each other. They hated each other so much that Kiri was sure the Capitol would mass produce some sort of advertisment to market off of it. Yet still they shared a kiss...
It took Kiri a while to finally regain a sense of semi control as he watched her scoop up the boy from four. Kiri actually felt an odd sense of fear as she began to vanish and the darkness engulfing him. Only just in the last moment he called out to her softly. "K... Key. I don' know if we will eva' see each otha' again, but if ya win please do two things for meh. First of all fix that clock of ya's. Second, make Kirito's Ma well again. Howeva' I plan to do that myself still so watch out Key Ward. We are in the home stretch now and the fun is only just beginning."
Then finally the darkness washed back over Kiri's body as her light danced away deeper into the sewers. Kiri let out a sigh as he rubbed the palms of his hands harshly into his eyes. Once again Kiri had been returned to the place he belonged, into the darkness he was born from. However a new sense of strength filled his body as he stood and turned his back towards the way Key had gone. "Ready to win the game now Kirito?" Kiri asked aloud as his gaze fell upon Asher's broken body. Yes, let's win. Kirito whispered and a deep grin slipped onto Kiri's face. "Perfect. Then let's go and kill anyone who tries to stop us." Then as Kiri's voiced echoed through the system he began his walk towards the exit, not of the sewers but of the arena itself.
