Mori had always suspected that something would bloom out of the relationship of our two little maniacs. Whether that be a bittersweet rivalry or a beautiful love story was hard to tell at the time, but the two had a knack for getting along. And getting on each other's final nerve. If anything, it was a skill they possessed purely for the other person. But, it made life far more interesting, so Mori was never one to complain about what the two were up to. As long as they didn't kill each other, they were free to do whatever they wanted.

But, something intrigued him about their relationship. For a star to be born there is one thing that must happen: a gaseous nebula must collapse. So, someone must crumble; collapse for the others success. He knew that. They most certainly knew that. But who was willing to take the fall for someone they had such a love-hate relationship with? For a man they could hardly trust outside of battle. So they made a bet, because when has that ever screwed either over before? This isn't going to be about their destruction. This is about the birth of a relationship; a new found trust. Are you ready?
