"Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord, and may perpetual light shine on her. May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace." As the priest read Johnny sighed heavily as he placed a bouquet of roses on the cold black coffin that held a dead Aisha within. Johnny Gat and Shia Walsh had chosen to gather on this day to pay their respects. The weather and scenery of the Mourning Woods Cemetery characterized the mood, the pouring rain and darkness symbolized the silent tears that Gat never cried and the gloomy surroundings connected to the hollow feeling Shia had in her stomach. Shia watched as her boyfriend knelt down and placed his hand sentimentally on the grave of his ex-wife, she did not kneel beside him nor did she comfort him, she knew what he needed, he needed someone present not a shoulder to mourn on but a support who would just stand by, he needed his best friend and so she was, in addition to his lover, his best friend. Father had waited so that Johnny could take a moment and whisper something of his own to the coffin, before the priest could continue the hallow ceremony was interrupted by loud engines that growled in the most displeasing way and that belonged to motorbikes, the Ronin.

"You two have humiliated my family for the last time!" Shogo Akuji yelled.

"Leave little boy." Gat warned still looking down at the coffin.

"Look at me when I'm talking to you!"

"Fuck off Akuji, I'm not killing anyone at Eash's funeral. Tonight….tomorrow…you name the time and I will gladly fuck you up…but not now," Johnny said calmly.

"How noble," Shogo spat as he armed himself, the rest of his crew followed his lead "nobility is sorely overrated," he said. Having no choice Shia and Gat took cover and armed themselves as well, the two were up against a crew well over twenty people but they also had rage on their side. When they took out nearly all of extra Ronin, Shia ran after Shogo who had gotten onto his bike.

"Stay here I'll bring back," Shia told Gat as she got on one of the dead Ronin's bike and chased after Shogo. She shot and chased Shogo all the way back to the cemetery where his bike crashed, before he could get up Shia grabbed him and started bringing him towards Gat who was patiently waiting for him.

"Let me go!" Shogo whimpered as she forcefully brought him to his death, she pushed Shogo right into Gat's fist.

"Get up," Gat ordered coldly to Shogo, the younger man obeyed his command and faced him. Shogo tried to kick Gat, but Gat caught his leg and broke it with his elbow, Shogo screamed and fell to his knees, Gat held onto his shoulders head-butted Shogo before letting him fall to the ground. "Get up," Gat repeated. Shogo again obeyed and tried to punch him, like his other attempt this was unsuccessful in that Gat dodged the punch, Gat punched Shogo and kneed him in the face making him fall to ground against a grave. "Get up," Gat repeated once more. This time Shogo did not listen.

"Please stop." He pleaded as he held onto the grave with his dear life.

"Not so fun when you're fighting someone who isn't tied to a chair is it?" Gat spat.

"I didn't kill her!"

"You ordered it." Gat said before punching Shogo through the hard grave.

"I'm sorry," Shogo said weakly as he barely held himself up from the ground.

"Well that brings her back doesn't it…" Gat said sarcastically as he grabbed Shogo by the collar and started pulling him towards another coffin "you couldn't even let her have a burial you fucking piece of shit…" Johnny said as he threw him back down, he tipped the coffin so that the person inside fell out, Shogo's eyes widened knowing his fate.

"No please no..," he begged as Gat threw him inside the coffin "kill me but don't do this!" he cried from inside the coffin as Gat picked up two shovels one of which he tossed to Shia. Gat lowered the coffin ignoring Shogo's screams and started the Texas funeral; Shia followed Gat's lead as Shogo kept screaming for mercy. When they put Shogo at least six feet under Gat went back to Aisha's coffin and continued to whisper to it. Shia followed and quietly stood behind him. Gat turned to Shia who was soaking wet; her curls fell flat and were plastered to her face as well as her black dress to her body.

"You should go, I might be a while," he suggested "I'll meet you back at the hideout, I just need to say goodbye," he explained before turning back to the coffin. Shia respected his request and called for cab to the Saints hideout. When Gat decided he was finished saying his farewells he drove over to Aisha's house. He walked around and chuckled at the good memories he had of his dear friend and past lover, he walked into their master bedroom where the magic happened sometimes and where most of the bickering occurred and went into the bathroom for a quick shower. He quickly changed into a dry pair of clothes and gathered all his things in a box he found in the garage. He put the box inside his car before saying bye to his old life forever and driving to the Saints hideout where his new life was. He found his "life" alone in the lounge of the hideout shooting down cans with a pistol. Gat snuck behind Shia and grabbed her by her waist and spun her around sexually before looking into her blue eyes and saying "I love you."

"I love you too," she smiled before grabbing him into a heated kiss. The two stood there making out passionately not even noticing Peirce make an entrance.

"AHEM!" Peirce coughed loudly making them break apart "I see you got your girl, you guys are so…"

"What do you want Peirce?" Shia asked cutting him off.

"I bumped into an old buddy of yours who was lookin' for ya," Peirce said.

"Who is it?" Shia asked.

"You can see for yourself in a few minutes," Peirce said.

"You brought him here?" Shia asked annoyed.

"How do you know this asshole isn't trying to kill her?" Johnny exclaimed protectively.

"Please I would never try to kill my favorite assassin," a familiar voice said, they looked towards the stairs to see Mr. Wong and his translator.

"Mr. Wong," Shia boomed excitedly as she walked towards him "this guy use to have me runnin' around killin' guys in hotdog suits," she explained before shaking Mr. Wong's hand. As Mr. Wong spoke in Mandarin, his translator spoke English for Shia.

"I'm quite please to hear about your survival…I'm here to give you my thanks for killing Kazuo Akuji's son." The translator said.

"You know Akuji?" Shia questioned.

"Akuji and I have had a long history, I have also had several unpleasant dealings with his son," he continued.

"What did Shogo do?" Peirce asked.

"When he was younger her killed Mr. Wong's dog," he answered.

"You're fucking kidding me," Gat said.

"I do not joke about Sadie!" Mr. Wong snapped.

"I you guys got some time we could…" Shia was interrupted when they heard the same engines from before, during the funeral.

"Is that.." Peirce started.

"Were you followed?" Gat asked.

"Shit I don't know."

"He was fucking followed!" Gat yelled.

"You aren't gonna believe this!" called a Saints member as he ran to the group panting.

"A bunch of Ronin goons are coming this way?"

"Well…yeah…" he said.

"You ready for this Wong?" Shia asked.

"I have not killed a man in quite some time," the translator said as they all armed themselves.

"Fuck the Ronin put up a fight today!" Gat exclaimed as he walked into Shia's penthouse, the owner of the large sky-high home was not far behind him and followed him into her master bedroom. Johnny exhaustedly fell onto the large bed as Shia sat down next to him.

"Don't get too comfy," she winked as she pulled her boots off "I'll be ready in a second," she added before walking into her walk-in closet. Knowing what was coming soon Gat started undressing. "How do I look?" Shia asked as she posed seductively in between the arch way dressed in only a set of sexy red lingerie bra and panties, her toned body glistened in the light.

"So sexy…" Gat growled as she strolled over to the bed, she climbed over to her lover on all fours and started to kiss his neck, she kept going higher and higher until she reached his lips, they engaged in one of their passionate kisses. Shia moaned as Gat's hands started wandering up her back he swiftly unclipped her sexy bra with one hand and pulled it off. Gat sat up and pleasured one of her tender nipples with his tongue while he tended to the other breast with his skillfully hand, Shia moaned and threw her head back, Gat groaned as she grasped his hair, he moved from one nipple to the other, when he was done with her breast they kissed again as he pulled her on top of him. Shia could feel his hard on poking through his boxers and into her body; she broke their kiss and started kissing her way down to the waistband of his underwear, she went back to kneeling position and started to pull them off, when she got them off she slid his erection into her mouth, he moaned and ran his hands through his hair, she pleasured him to no end with her mouth as he moaned her name. She was very skilled at "blowing" his mind but he wanted to make love to her so badly, he stopped her and switched their positions so that he was on top and thrust himself inside of her she moaned held onto his shoulders. He pulled out and thrust as far as he could, she screamed louder and grabbed onto his back, he started to move at a rhythm and got faster and harder with every thrust, Shia's nails dug into his back as he moved in and out of her, she started to scream even louder when he started hitting her spot. "You're so fucking tight," he moaned before kissing her intensely. They kissed furiously and passionately as they both got close to their climax. They moaned loudly in unison as Johnny came, filling Shia out. He remained inside of her and they shared one last kiss. Gat pulled out and rolled onto his back and Shia rested her head on his chest.

"That was even better than last time," Shia said breathlessly "not that you weren't amazing before."

"Well I've had a lot of practice since then," he said "not that I could get any better, I'm flawless in bed."

"I'd say don't cocky but I can't disagree," she said before getting out of the bed.

"Where're you going," Gat asked.

"Going to change I'll be ready for bed in a second," she said as she walked into her closet, she walked out a second later in long t-shirt, she crawled back into bed and snuggled up to Gat. They turned on the TV, planning to watch it until they fell asleep. "Baby?" Shia asked.

"Hmm?" he said.

"Are you going to move in with me?" she asked. Gat thought for a moment of how he made so many mistakes in terms of love, dating Aisha was a mistake, moving in with Aisha was a mistake, and getting married to Aisha was a mistake but it wasn't actions it was the woman, the wrong woman, Shia was the perfect woman. Aisha and his mistakes were part of his old life that he left with behind along within the coffin and the house but Shia was his new life.

"Yeah," he answered.
