• Niki rubbed her eyes, opening the door to the small bathroom that she shared with the West family. She heard a sudden clatter and looked up. Xsander was standing there, his normal black shirt and the top of his mask off. His eyes widened when he saw her there. Niki stepped forward, amazed by the long pale scar that ran the length of his body, from his neck to below his pant line. Her eyes travled up his body and stared into his shocked green eyes. "I'm sorry." she whispered. His reply was even more muffled than usual, because his hand was tight on the bottom half of his mask. Xsander finnally looked straight into her eyes, and was lost. He bent to her as she stood on her toes to reach his lips. The black mast fluttered to the ground as his lips met hers in that fatal kiss.
