"I dont like fancy dresses." Alex grumbled as Endress brushed her hair while her mom looked for a dress for Alex. Endress frowned and looked at the brunette. "I dont exactly like them either Alex. I'm not a dress up kind of girl. I enjoy the thrill of adventure...seeing the world..."

"Why don't you continue the passion?" Lana asked, exiting the closet with a nice short dress for Alex. Endress sighed and shook her head. "I met Duncan again and...i didn't wanna ever leave. We got to travel a bit. But when I found out I was pregnant with Lalna, I had to stop. I had to raise a family." She said, parts of her black hair falling into her eye.

Lana smiled, moving the hair as Alex got up, dressing into the dress with ease. "You settled down?" Alex said. The raven haired girl nodded, "But I guess if I hadn't then Lalna would be here! Neither would Alice or Alelna." Alex smiled at the thought of her little girls. Star and Matthew would be watching them tonight while the others went out.

"Its nice having a family..." Lana said softly. Endress smiled, "Yeah...but it's even nice knowing that once your children have left you can get back into your hobbies."

"Endress!!" The black haired girl laughed. "Joking!" The three settled their laughter, Alex turning to the two smirked. "So...we going to ignore the time I found you making out with Endress in her brewing lab?"

The two flushed a bright red that spread to their ears. Endress covered her face while Lana stammered an answer to her question from the blue. All the while Alex just grinned.

~~~~

"Tell her." Lalna glanced at the two, obviously anger and scared at Lalna. He shook hi head. "I told her after the world had been blown up those blueprints were destroyed. And-"

"But there not Lalna!!! Alice found the once she can find them again!" Rythian shouted. Duncan looked like Livid was ready to bust out and strangle him for being an idiot. Lalna gulped, his tux suddenly feeling quite tight around his neck.

"I-I'll destroy them in the fire when we get back! Just please dont tell Alex!" Lalna begged. The two sighed, shaking their heads.

"Fine." they said together. "Lets just go enjoy this night...at least it'll be normal." Duncan snorted, slapping the brunettes ass as Lalna walked and whispered in his ear, "As normal as it'll get until were in the same bed."

~~~~~

"Holy gods of Tekkit! Martyn and the others really outdid themselves!" Endress exclaimed grinning. Duncan laughed and took her hand, gazing at her. She'd done her hair in a nice wavy fashion. He always liked that way. And she was wearing this gorgeous long sleeveless dress, just hitting her toes.

"Duncan? Earth to Duncan?" he snapped out of his gaze, blushing lightly. "Sorry Endress...but your right! They did great! The lanterns are a great blue and pink! And everything seems to go well perfect!" He exclaimed. The girl smiled walking around and greeting old faces, soon enough the blonde lost her in the crowd. He sighed, shaking his head. Usual Endress. Then a thought struck him.

What if Nano was here? His heart began to race when suddenly a familiar face, dare I say faces appeared in front of the dazed scientist.

"Duncan? Duncan, friend you alright?" He knew that voice anywhere. "Xephos! My friend! Its great to see you after soo long!" The blonde grinned, looking down slightly he saw the face of his old friend Honeydew.

"Hey Dew! Hows your neck?" the two taller men laughed slightly as Dew rolled his eyes snorting. "Haven't heard that one before...hey we just saw Endress! She was talking to Sips and Sjin about something."

"Great. Thanks guys. I promise I'll buy a round of drinks later!" Duncan said running off toward the sound of laughter of a certain dirt salesman and his boyfriend.

~~~~~

"Hey Martyn! This is going great! Who did the decorations?" Martyn chuckled, "Spruce and Frost. They have a sense of decoration. Dusk and me did the music...did you guys know Dusk was a DJ?" Lana snorted, "DJ Dusk eh?"

The two had a small laugh when suddenly somebody bumped into her, making her fall. Rythian luckily, had walked over in time to see who it was. It was Duncan, rushing off toward the sound of laughter of a dirt man and his boyfriend. Rythian helped her up. "You alright Lana?" she huffed, laughter from earlier gone. "Fine."

Martyn smiled, "Well I gotta go find the other three. Especially Spruce. Do not want him getting drunk."

"He drinks?"

"Only when there's a party Rythian. Only when there's a party." with that the blonde walked off, leaving the two alone in the middle of a crowd. Rythian turned to her, smiling under his mask. But frowned when he saw that she had walked off. He sighed, closing his eyes. he looked around, trying to spot her in the crowd. But the only other blondes he could make out where Hannah, Minty, Duncan and Lalna.

No Lana.

~~~~~~

"I'm hungry."

"So?"

"Go get me some pancakes or cake from the snack bar please?" The brunette grumbled, getting up from her seat and setting her beer down. "Fine. But you better save my seat." He smiled and kissed her softly as she walked away.

It had been thirty minutes since Alex left. Lalna was panicking. He had been looking for her everywhere. Twice. Three times. Four! No Alex.

Finally he stared at the ground, his worst fears coming to haunt him. But then the voices. Whispering angrily at him saying she'd found someone better. Didn't love him.

He sat back down to where he'd been waiting. He looked over to where Alex was sitting. Her beer glass wasn't there anymore. He raised an eyebrow as Rythian and Duncan slumped down beside him. The three had no words. They'd lost their lovers to where ever they had gone. But that's when the scream happened.

~~~~~

"ITS DEATH!!!!" everyone scattered. Running in different directions. The three boys got up, looking around. Their eyes fell on a small woman in black and red. She held a shadow scythe in her hand.

Yes I said her. It was none other than Nano Sounds herself.

When the crowd vanished the three spotted their girls laying on the ground, pale. Almost lifeless. Because that's what they were. Dead.

Nano held up her hand. In her hand appeared three flames. One green, one red. Red like Zoey's hair.

"Rythian Enderborn. Your up first." The brunette felt almost a force push him forward toward her. He glared at Death. Nano. Whatever.

"You have a choice. Save Zoey's soul or Lana's soul." she felt confident. He knew how much Zoey had meant to Rythian. She wanted everything of their lives. Gone. By their own choice. Rythian walked closer to her. Suddenly there were two images. More like memories of the two girls.

Zoey. Was always laughing and smiling. Their kisses, their smiles, their lessons. His kisses, his smiles, his lessons. Her kisses, her smiles, her lessons. He looked over at Lana. She was usually embarrassed, yelling, or looking badass. He had made his choice.

"Give me Lana back." Nano scowled, snapping her fingers. Suddenly the green flame re-joined with Lana's body and she gasped for air. Rythian ran to her, holding her close. "I couldn't bear to lose you again." she smiled, pulling down hid mask and kissing him. "Right back at you."

The two's gaze fell onto the other bodies below them. Dead and lifeless. Lana stared at them. Her girlfriend and best friend. And her daughter. Dead. Rythian led her away, holding her close.

"Lalna Jones. Step forward." he felt the same force, pushing him in the middle. He looked at her, she held up her hand, a blue flame and a swirling golden light.

"I can give you Alex back. Or I can give you the power to get rid of those negative voices in your head. Your livid." Lalna glanced between to the two. Finally he choose Alex. Whom he raced to and held tightly. Crying quietly.

Nano scowled again, snapping her head up to meet Duncan's gaze. He seemed emotionless as he walked forward.

"Give me End-"

"Not so fast. Lets see what I have to offer. A normal life, all the worlds restored, Rythian's scars restored, every single regret you have. Gone like the wind. Never happened." he stared at her. Unsure. His heart was racing a million times per second. He hated everything he'd mostly done in his life. He was about to make his choice. But then the memories appeared in the flame.

The purple flame. Endress's soul. It showed her laughing, smiling, crying, kissing, blushing. Then it showed the time they had met again. Lana may have been there that night but the gods of Tekkit know that it felt like they were the only ones on the planet. The light turned off.

"Choice. Now." she growled. The purple flame was shooting through her hand. She was trying to hide it. He looked back and forth between a flame of red and a flame of purple. Restore his honor and repair the damage...or get back the love his life. That flame was her. 

The fire inside her, never going to let out.

"Endress. I choose Endress." She screamed, throwing the flame into the air, watching it drift down into the palm of Duncan's hands. She continued to scream, shooting water at him. He closed his hand and turned around, protecting the flame at all costs. Suddenly the water stopped. He turned around and saw she was gone. Lana held her sword where she had been. He turned t her.

"Just go give her soul back Jones." He did just that. Kneeing down he gently placed the fire by Endress it slowly sank into her. They watched, almost as soon ad the soul was in her color was back in her face. She opened her eyes. Well, he assumed the other had opened. She always had it covered with hair.

She looked up at him, "Duncan...? Did I drink again?" he laughed, holding her close, she shivered, "Duncan your all wet!!! What the hell happened?!"

~~~~

"I see...fucking Nano. Ruins most things." he laughed, nuzzling his nose into her hair. "Well we still have each other. Wet and all." she blushed lightly. Suddenly a familiar song came on, the two looked at each other. Getting up from their seats.

"May I have this dance, my love?" she blushed, taking his hand. "You shall. But never. Ever. Try to act that corny again." he laughed. "Promise." the first lines of the song started as other couples took to the dance floor as well.

"Love of mine, someday you will die. But I'll be close behind...ill follow you into the dark..."

Forever and ever. Through thick and thin, life and death. They'll be together...green and purple.
