You Found Me

Is this a dream?
If it is
Please don't wake me from this high
I'd become comfortably numb
Until you opened up my eyes
To what it's like
When everything's right
I can't believe

"Do you hate me?"

"No, I never could, Alex. You know that."

I ran through the street, my lung burning. I gasped for air as I ran down the street, not even the power of the Hellspawn within me gave complete immunity to getting tired.

"Why? I'm not someone to love. By how you talk of Matt you'd think he was your Knight in shining armor."

"There!" I gasped, seeing the church. I gasped for air, but I wouldn't let my body weaken.

You found me
When no one else was looking
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

"He's not my Knight. You are. Why? Do you want me to like him?"

"……"

"Alex."

I rammed into the door and forced it open. As soon I charged in I saw Poison in a tuxedo, an actual look of surprise on his face. Standing next to him was Dragon, with a blank, almost dead look to her. I had two words to this God forbidden wedding.

"I OBJECT!"

"……"

"Alex…"

"I'm going to die one day, everything does. The scary part is that we never know when or how…But I think I do…Heh…I'm just like my parents. I'm an asshole like my Dad, and sensitive like my Mother…Never a good combo. I'm going to kill myself, of that I'm also completely sure. That's why I act like this, why I'm so mean, so angry all the time. It's like a defensive mechanism, because when I die, I don't want to hurt you or anyone for that matter…"

So, here we are
That's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back
I'm fading out
All that has faded me within
You're by my side
Now everything's fine
I can't believe

"How did you get out?" Poison groaned. The church was empty, just Poison, Dragon, the Priest, and me. Good, no accidental casualties.

"I'm here for my girlfriend."

"Oh? Dragon, dear, who is this man?" Poison sneered.

"I do not know, Master. It does not matter," Dragon's voice answered. I mean Dragon's voice, because that was not her. I knew it.

"Dragon, I'm going to save you! I promise!"

"Alex…"

"That's why. That's why I'm mean, cruel, and an asshole."

"Alex… I wuv wou. I care about you, and I always will," her voice said and it tore me apart inside. Her arms wrapped around my neck, and she hugged me tightly, both of our eyes getting wet.

"I don't deserve you."

You found me
When no one else was looking'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

"Let's GO ZERO OMEGA MODE!" I yelled and my glowed gold as Poison stepped closer to me.

"Stay here," Poison ordered Dragon. "Let's GO ZERO."

In mid transformation our fists met, slamming into each other. The shockwave shot out and we were both pushed back. I could feel the armor finish covering me and I held my Dragon's sword in my hand.

"Armageddon Kick!" Poison yelled as his right leg glowed blue and he jumped into the air and nearly slammed his foot into my head. I ducked under it and attacked with the sword, but Poison disappeared.

"Damn it!"

SLAP!

"Alex, never say that. I care about you! What I felt for Matt is minuscule compared to what I feel now…I love you…"

I held her in my arms, the tears freely falling down. I kissed her cheek, forehead, and lips, tasting her own tears.

You found me
When no one else was looking'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me

"Apocalypse PUNCH!"

A fiery blue fist slammed into my head and I fell back. I shook it off and rolled to the side, dodging another Armageddon Kick. I quickly forced my body up and held the blade up. Poison's arms glowed black as he pulled them back and suddenly shot them forward.

"Ending Wave!"

"Supreme Sword Strike!"

In one golden brilliant strike my doppelganger was killed, with me standing tall. I saw Dragon still standing there, no emotion on her face. I ran over to her and grabbed the ring on her finger, pulling it off and throwing it aside.

"Dragon!"

"A-Alex?" she groaned, holding her head. Suddenly realization hit her and she smiled, hugging me. "Thanks."

"Always a pleasure."

My eyes opened in surprise, and I gasped for air and looked around, a cold sweat on my body. "A dream? It was a dream?" I whispered. The talk I had with Dragon, her forced wedding with Poison…

I got up and ran to Dragon's room in the Zero Robot, not caring how loud I was.

(You found me)
(When no one else was looking')
You found me
(How did you know just where I would be?)
You broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
The good and the bad
And the things in between
You found me
You found me

She opened the door and groaned as she saw me. Before she could say anything I grabbed her and pulled her into a passionate kiss, one she was happy to return.

After a few minutes of this lovely kiss, we pulled back, both of us blushing in dimly lit room.

"What was that for?" Dragon asked.

"For being you," I whispered, and kissed her again. "That was for my mistakes," I whispered, before another kiss. "That was for the future," I smiled, and laid one last passionate kiss. "That was for anything I missed."

THE END
