Tank Kirikvich
Tank listened to every word that Jorden said, each new piece of knowledge of this man Rei making him more and more angry. When he saw the scratches though, he could not be angry, only heartbroken. They were a permenant reminder of a horrific time in his life, much like Ash's scar on her stomach, unable to forget that with such a momento. Tank felt tears running down his face and he slowly held the young Dragon to him, whispering into his ear, "I promise Drakon, that I will never, ever, do anything to hurt you. I will do the killing of anyone who tries to treat you any less than the strong, kind, and precious male that you truly are. I will never let that trash touch you again, I will do the tearing off of the balls on him if he tries. I will only do as much as you want, and I could never force you to do anything Drakon. I promise you, Jorden. I love you far too much to hurt you in any way."

Tank Kirikvich
He smiled and laughed softly, remembering all of the death threats he had received the first day alone. "Yes, I can. She must have made me almost do the pissing of my pants hundreds of times. But Harmony was merely looking out for you Drakon. She saw my size and strength and did the assuming that I could be just as dangerous, but I do not blame her for that. If someone had done that to Krista..." His voice trailed away and he silenced himself.
He suddenly heard the bullet fired again, the feel of her hands as she shoved him aside, the sight of her blood as the bullet went through her skull, the smell of the cars' exhaust as it sped away, the gunman yelling, "Till we meet again Mikhail. I will always remember that day, and you this one."
He remebered how his sister didn't move, breathe, how here eyes were empty and blank as he held her to him, begging her to be alright, to say something, anything. He finally returned to the boy in his arms and smiled, pushing away the memory quickly and kissing him over and over again. "She was right to be doing the freaking of the out. You were hurt and she was the one to find you. Do not blame yourself Drakon, it was that trash that is to blame. Do not let him win. Never let him win."

Jorden Gregory Ariake
I want to find something I've wanted all along...
Jorden didn't miss the flash of pain in Tank's eyes when he mentioned his sister Krista. Jorden didn't know the entire story, just that Krista had been killed. He hated seeing his lover in pain, and wondered absently if Tank had bottled that memory up as effectively as Jorden had his awful past. He returned the kisses Tank gave and smiled slightly, placing his palm gently against his boyfriend's face, his fingers barely touching his hair. "I'm just glad you listened, Mikhail. It helped to finally tell someone. And... if you ever want to tell me anything, you can. I don't want you to let your past haunt you, like I've let mine haunt me. I know you've been through some horrible things, but you're with me now, and we can face them together. We're a team." Jorden smiled and kissed Tank's lips softly, his hand still resting gently on the male's face.
Somewhere I belong...

Erin Joyce Lee
"They tell me that love is wonderful..."
A couple of weeks after Tsubatsu's death, on May 11, Erin entered the shop early one morning. She looked around at the guys; she'd called them all in three hours before the shop actually opened, so they all looked a bit tired. Erin had left Ash asleep in their bed with a note beside her saying that Erin had gone out to get groceries for breakfast (which she would do after this, as a cover). She smiled and handed out the coffee and donuts she'd brought, looking around the circle of yawning men. "So, I'm sure you're all wondering why I've called you here. It's come to my attention that the birthday of Ashika Rose Dresden is in seven days time. This gives us seven days, gentlemen, to come up with the best surprise party ever." She dragged out a whiteboard and pulled a red dry-erase marker from her work station. "So, let's get some ideas rolling, shall we?"
"...but how can something so painful be wonderful?"

Erin Joyce Lee
"They tell me that love is wonderful..."
Erin just grinned and shook her head, obviously hyper even though her espresso sat untouched on her desk. "Sorry, guys, I know it's early, but trust me, if I'd left any later in the morning, Ash would have caught me. Probably would have asked where I was going, or asked to go with me. And I intend to keep this a complete and total secret from her until the event itself. I would plan this by myself, too, but you guys have known her longer than I have, so I need your help to make it the best birthday ever. Can I count on you guys?"
"...but how can something so painful be wonderful?"
