*You and Kurapika were lovers. Having met at the Nostrade Family, you had been together ever since, becoming precious to one another. You understood his pain better than anyone, and he relied on you deeply.

But then. He suffered a gunshot wound while on a mission. He hadn't even tracked down the Troupe yet. He hadn't even reached their heels.

And so, you were left alone. Kurapika had always stayed by your side, but now there was no one left to protect you. God had abandoned you.

While carrying out a mission alone, you were subjected to something horrific and disgusting by male members of a rival organization. Blood spills from your body as your vision gradually fades.

As you die, you call out once more to the God who abandoned you.

Lord, please give me one more chance. Please return me to the day I met him. If I can go back to that time... If I can meet him again...

I will try to trade his death for my own.

Your vision went dark. Breath failed you. Your heart stopped, then began to beat again. Fast, faster and faster.

When you open your eyes, you are inside the Nostrade mansion. Before you, the colleagues who joined at the same time as you are chatting. And then, you see the face you missed so dearly. Sitting quietly alone, reading a book. He looks exactly as he did the day you first met.

Suppreessing the tears welling up, you run to him and throw your arms around him. However, the response you receive is...*

Only then do you realize. At this point in time, you weren't lovers yet. And so, you make a vow once more.

This time, I will protect you even if it costs me my life.
