Clara didn't pull away, but instead, welcomed the embrace of his lips. Though the bullets still sounded off like lightning during a storm, this was her haven. Her soft lips trembled on his own, and that only made his arms wrap around her body tighter, assuring her safety.

"I'll never let anyone hurt you." Boris whispered into her ear, instantly calming her a bit before the warmth of his lips repositioned itself on her own once again, but fiercer. She held her ground by holding to Boris's back while tail swayed rhythmically back and forth.

Suddenly the bullets stopped. And Clara became scared once again at the thought of the outcome.

"BORIS? RACHEL? DUM?!" The voices echoed through the mansion, finally reaching the two lovers. To Clara's dismay, Boris pulled away and picked up the shaken girl along with her blanket still wrapped around Clara's body.

"Here!" He called out, opening the door and exiting to see all of the men (and women) with a face of relief. Julius had Joker's bloody watch in his hands, and vowing to never let a soul have the tainted heart. Hatter, though losing blood from his shoulder where but one deadly metal pierced his skin, laughed. For the first time in his life, he wanted to protect something dear to all; and he'd do anything to keep that sunshine.

"What are laughing about?!" Clara panicked as she bandaged up his arm. Clumsy Hatter. Must be all that Mercury going to his head, she thought.

"Just thinking how ironic this bullet is." He chuckled as he relaxed.

~~~~~~~~~~the fall out.

"Clara, are these your friends?" Elliot asked, pointing to the wide eyes as they returned to Scotland and Clara's high school. She smiled, racing to see her newfound friends. They were all glad to see the girl that was shy and quiet in class, and a large group hug started around Clara. Then, Boris joined in, so did the twins, Rachel, and...oh, just fuck it all- everyone came in for the hug.

"Well you done done me and you bet I felt it, I tried to be chill, but your so hot that I melted." Boris smiled through his singing, taking Clara by the hand as many of their friends played the melody off their guitars. Now it was night and a large party had formed where the people of the Country of Hearts became accustomed to Earth, Scotland.

"I fell right though the cracks, and now I'm trying to get back! Before the cool done run out, I'll be givin it my bestest, and nothin gonna stop me but divine intervention." Clara joined in, because she knew they would always be with her, not only in the heart, but now physically as well. The key to Julius's tower could be opened from any door, and now that the conflict is coming to an end, so is the danger.

"I recon it's again my term, to win some and learn some, badada, won't hesitate, no more, no more, it can not wait-" Elliot was cut off rudely by Gowland's horrible playing skills on the guitar.

"IM YOURS!!!" His voice cracked and made Boris jump back with a hiss. Clara laughed like never before, taking Julius and Blood's hands as she gave them a smile.

"Why aren't you dancing?" She asked, certain of the answers to be given.

"I can't."

"I never learned."

"Why?" She asked, pleading with her eyes to dance with two of her heroes.

"Because when in the Country of Hearts, we have bigger roles that don't involve dancing." Julius pushed up his glasses at his scientific answer.

"I'll show you." Clara smiled, taking each of their hands and leading them to the dance floor. And Clara, no, My daughter, was everything I had hoped. She filled everyone's life with meaning once again, and I was able to see her smile once again, even though I am gone.

My name I Annabell Hawk, and my daughter is someone I couldn't be prouder of.

End.
