Exhausted from their own seperate events, the Eds and Raz stepped into the apartment. On the way up, Double D had explained to the others exactly what had happened.
"Are you serious?" Eddy exclaimed. "C4s, heat-seeking missiles, AND flame-engulfed sythes!? What a total coward!"
"And he STILL didn't kill you. Noob." Raz smirked. "Wish I was there to see the kickass move you pulled off."
"It WAS rather impressive." Despite his gloominess, Double D couldn't help but smile, placing a tired Felix down in bed. "I'm surprised I actually pulled it off without a hitch."
"Hooray!" Ed cheered. Why, the other two didn't know. "I KNEW you could do it!"
Double D noticed their confused faces and explained. "Ed helped me practice it, throwing punches at me and all. There were a few mess-ups, imperfect illusions, sheilds not raised in time..." He chuckled as he observed his stomach. "Garnered a bit of bruising, but better that than a stab wound, right?"
"Definitely."
"Woo! Our Sockhead's becoming a class-A fighter!" Eddy pounded his back. "Way to show that dickweed who's boss!"
"...a lot of the defending came from Felix..." Double D continued, casting a glance towards his sleeping angel. "...and a few others who joined the fray. I never caught their names."

The Bear closed the door behind them. He picked up Felix and put him under the covers of the bed. "Awr..." he said. (Don't forget, nobody notices him unless he does something important)

"Nnnnnnnnn... Ugggggggghhhhhhh..." Felix was stirring and his eyes began to open. "D-D... Double D... Is that you?"

"Ah! Felix!" Double D hurried to his side. "Are you alright? You passed out after you fixed the city."
"Nice work on that, by the way," Raz spoke up. "You can barely tell what happened."

The Bear nodded and made another "Awr?" noise

"... Where's... Where's Shinichi-san... He's supposed to be with you, right?" Felix asked.

Double D stood back, mortified. "....."
"..." The other three didn't speak up either.

Felix looked down. "I... I failed... I couldn't protect him... I couldn't protect you... I can't protect anyone!" Tears were streaming from his eyes.

"No! No, Felix, please!" Double D embraced him. "Please... you did everything you could..."
"Yeah, that jerk was cowardly," Raz tried to be helpful.
"If this is anyone's fault... it's mine."
"Huh??"

The Bear stepped back a bit. "Awr?"

"How is it your fault?! How could it be your fault?! I let myself get unstable! I let myself descend into that same darkness I worked so hard to escape from!" Felix said, trying to make Double D realize it wasn't his fault.
"True, so why are your wings white?" Leon asked from the window.

"That's just it!" Double D turned away. "You wouldn't have HAD to... if he wasn't there... and he was there... for ME..." He began to visiably tremble. "Everywhere I go, there always seems to be someone out for ME..."
"That jewel piece's probably part of it," Eddy pointed out.
"If that was the case, Shade wouldn't have tried to BLOW HIM UP," Raz argued. "So it wasn't the jewel piece he was after. But I don't think it has to do with him and Felix either."
"See??" Double D turned back sharply, tears running rivers down his scowling face. "People are even seeking me out for reasons I can't even BEGIN to fathom!" He turned away again. "...all these attacks... all these assassination attempts... they only end in destruction and... death..."
The murder of Shinchi finally hit him at full force, and he fell to his knees.
"Oh, god...!"
"Double D!!"

A box came flying through the window. Bear caught it. "It's a box of supplies and crap!" shouted NT9 from the Mafia's Limo "The Mob supports ya! But don't tell no one! Spread the word!" Leonard smacked him on the back of his metallic head. Leonard entered through the hole in the window. He had bandages over his shoulder and side. "Sorry about that guy's death..." said Leonard "Particularly because I didn't cause it but... whatever"

"But how can you blame yourself for the freaks and the scum in the world? I can say this easier then Felix, though I do not really care. Still, don't speak of yourself in an offensive manner when offensive tactics should be mounted upon your enemies," Leon said. Felix tried to speak, but Leon had said everything he wanted to say, though he had been more blunt about it.
Leon stared at Leonard. "You returned?"
