Maybe it's a Dream:// Act 3





A/N: No inspiration really bites --;; I also changed the title of this Fic to 'Maybe it's a Dream' from World of Glass.

Anyway people seem to think since I named Yamato "Kamui" that this story had something to do with X. Well it doesn't ^^;;

It has nothing to do with the story of X and the only thing similar is that I used the name Kamui and maybe the sword thing. The only reason I chose it was because I needed the double meaning of the name for my story to work ^^;;

Also this is NOT a crossover of Angel Sactuary --;; I'm just using various concepts from it o_O So expect A LOT of it to have nothing to do with either anime/mangas.

"Rapheal!" Mimi gasped, pushing Yamato out of the way, as a blast of energy tried to hit him.



"They've already started..." Jumping into a fighting stance, Mimi was soon enveloped in a shining light and her clothes were replaced with holy garments.



"So you're a guardian! I should've guessed from the strange energy you were giving off!" staring at her, Rapheal sneered, sword in hand. "I won't hold back though. If you stand in my way, I'll destroy you!"



"I won't let you have him!" Mimi shouted back, calling forth a silver staff, "His life is precious!"



Watching the two with wide eyes, Yamato leaned against his hands. He saw blood run down the tips of his fingers but it wasn't his. Realizing it must be from Mimi he looked up to see her engaged in battle with the angel Rapheal.



Feeling useless, Yamato quickly turned away, "Goddamnit! Why can't I do anything?!"



Then he remembered how he was able to fight, back when he first met Mimi. He had created a sword of light and beaten the creature...how had he done that again? Could he even do anything without Mimi's help?



Feeling the worthlessness wash over him, Yamato cursed under his breath, "I can never save the people in my life...they always die trying to save me."



'Yamato...'



"What?" he heard a voice in his head.



'Kamui...'



"What is this...?"



'Yamato...Kamui...'



"Get out of my head!!" he tried to block out the sound, "Stop it! Stop the noise!"



"Yamato?!" turning to him in alarm, Mimi wondered what he was talking about. She saw him toppled over, holding his head in pain.



Panicked she wondered if Rapheal had done something to him while they were fighting but was answered when he asked, "What the...What's with him?!"



They both stopped fighting, watching him as Yamato screamed at air, "Get out! Who are you?!?!"



"Yamato!" scared, Mimi rushed over to him but the other angel grabbed her, "What are you--"



"Look!" he pointed towards Yamato, a shocked expression on his face.



A bright blue light had suddenly enveloped the boy and he started to float. Trying to break free and go to him, Mimi screamed, "Yamato!!" as the light took over the area.



'Yamato...Kamui...let me out.'



*Ba-Dump, Ba-Dump*



When the light subsided, Mimi waited with bated breath. Was Yamato alright? She couldn't let him die...not this soon.



"Rapheal," a bell-like voice called, startling the two. Stepping out from the shine, a beautiful woman emmerged, dressed in heavenly white and long golden tresses down her back.



Reeling back in shock, Rapheal's eyes widened as Mimi gasped, "Kamui-sama!"



The woman's face was devoid of emotion and she lifted her hand, pointing towards Rapheal, "Tell your God...I will destroy this earth and all he holds dear...I will punish thoughs who shun me..."



Speechless, Rapheal stumbled back in horror, "H-How can you! How can you still...still keep this form?! That body was destroyed long ago!"



"Body and soul...are two different beings," she answered but before he could reply, Kamui sent a blast of light at him, causing Rapheal to be thrown, hitting a building.



Watching in horror, Mimi's eyes flickered to show something else. Revelation. Trying to get up, Rapheal clutched his bleeding arm, in pain. Turning to Yamato/Kamui he scowled deeply and said, "The light shall always triumph...stop living in a dream that died long ago," before dissapearing.



After he left, Kamui's body emmited another bright glow, before transforming back into Yamato. Running to catch him, Mimi cradled his unconcious body in her arms.



Gazing blankly, she combed his bangs with her slim fingers, watching him breath peacfully. Her wings fading and normal clothes returning, she sat in the middle of choas, police sirens going off in the background.



"The naive and innocent always get caught up in war...but what are you labeled? When you are forced to live as one who has died both?"



*****



"Mmm..." Yamato clutched his aching head. Sitting up, he looked around to find that he was lying in his room.



"What the..." he tried to remember what had happened but all he could think of was fighting Rapheal and passing out when a voice in his head called to him.



"I must be going insane," he concluded, getting out of bed. Then it hit him. What happened to Mimi?! She was wounded the last he knew...



Running down the stairs, he almost tripped but was relieved to see Mimi flipping the channels of his T.V. in confusion.



Turning to him, she smiled, "Oh, you're up! I'm glad, dinner is waiting if you want it."



"Mimi..." he stumbled onto the couch, "What...happened?"



Smile faltering for a moment, she turned back to the screen, "Nothing. Rapheal left saying something about being back and I brought you home after you fainted."



"I...fainted?"



"I'm sure it was quite a shock to be challenged by an archangel. Any human would..."



"I'm sorry," Yamato blurted, blushing, "I couldn't do anything and then...I'm sorry I couldn't help you."



"Yamato..." she looked thoughtful, "You helped me."



"I did?" he looked puzzled, "I thought I fainted."



"Without knowing you were there with me I don't think I could've gone against someone like Rapheal! He's very powerful..."



Blushing, he quickly headed towards the kitchen, changing the subject, "So dinners ready? Yum! I'm starved!"



"Huh?" Mimi switched off the T.V. "That was rude!! Don't walk away from me!"



***



"I failed. Forgive me," kneeling in front a of shrouded figure, Rapheal bowed his head in shame.



"Kamui was able to break free and reviel herself?"



"Yes...she...that boy. He really is her reincarnation but she was able to break away from him."



"And he has chosen to go against us?"



"Yes, well...Kamui said she shall but the boy...he...I'm not sure about him."



"They are one."



"Yes but...he seemed...he did not seem to know she was..."



"I see. Watch him."



"Yes."

Dusting, Mimi hummed a tune, "La, La, La...

Angels fly with wings of gold!

But what do they do with hearts of lead?

Oh, fall from the sky!

From way up high and to their doom, they will plummet..."



"Such a depressing song," Yamato mused from the couch, "I wouldn't expect you to sing something like that...I mean you are an angel and all."



"Uh, yes," answering hestitently, she continued with her work, "You could say that."



"Mimi," staring up at the ceiling fan, he sighed in frustration, "Mimi tell me something. If you and Rapheal are both angels why fight? Aren't you both good?"



Stopping her duster, Mimi paused for a moment not sure of what to tell him.



"Yamato...in the heavens it isn't like you would expect. There is much chaos and struggle for power and it is far from the paradise that people look forward to. God just watches and creates but he does not stop the darkness. Nothing can."



"But then why do we suffer from good and evil?"



"What is good? What is evil? There is no real definition...so how do we know we are fighting for the right side?"



"I..." surprised by her answer and question, he frowned, "I thought you were supposed to tell me."



"Even I do not have that power or knowledge. Some of the angels in heaven have

decided that to ensure the earth's future the only way is to kill Kamui. Others think it should be your holy decision. Our two sides struggle and we fight for your life Yamato."



"But how do I choose? When I don't know light from darkness?! You told me Kamui already chose to destroy but does that mean I have to go along with it?"



"This is your life Yamato...it's your decision."



"That's just it! This isn't my life! It's some damn angel's that made a mistake in the past!! Now I'm cursed because of her! I didn't ask for this!!"



Getting up, he stormed up the stairs and into his room, slamming the door. Plopping on his head, Yamato smothered his head with a pillow and sighed, 'I yelled at her for my problems again...'



Still standing where he left her, Mimi frowned, "I told him too much. It hurts..."



Turning with a sigh, she proceeded to finish dusting but stopped when she made it to a small picture frame. Picking it up, she studied it, gasping at the people she saw.



Tracing one of the figures with her finger, Mimi smiled sadly, "When angels fall, they fall hard.

With tears of blood and sins full of sorrow...

Oh, weeping angel of heaven...how is it in hell?"
