Repo! The Genetic Opera

Bailey leaned back in her chair and walked upstairs at 9 PM. She sighed and walked into her bedroom, shutting the door softly, tearing up a bit.

GraveRobber walked in a little later, yawning slightly. "What's wrong, hun?"

"I spent an hour and a half making dinner, and you guys couldn't even bother to come down and eat." She said softly, turning off the light, "I'll be here in the morning, I'll be the one making breakfast." She said bitterly and then rolled over, sighing gently.

"I'm sorry. We fell asleep." He frowned slightly. "You could've come up here to get us, if it mattered that much." He sighed then turned and wandered downstairs.

Bailey woke the next morning and was gone all day, noone had seen or heard from her until about 9 PM at night. When she came through the door. She locked the door and smiled gently.

GraveRobber was laying on the couch in the dark when she came back. He was still obviously awake. He sighed slightly. "Rei left." He stated simply after a few moments of silence.

"And what do you want me to do about it?" She said softly, taking off her shoes.

He shrugged slightly. "Just informing you. She heard what you said last night and decided it would be better off if she left." He stood slowly and began to head back upstairs. "She left the drawing. It's on your pillow." He stated as he vanished up the stairs.

Bailey left again, but this time she went to the warehouse, she slammed the door open. "Rei?"

The warehouse seemed oddly deserted. None of Rei's stuff was there.

Bailey tilted her head and then sighed softly, returning to their house. She threw her bag on the chair and walked upstairs towards her bedroom.

GraveRobber was laying face down on their bed.

All of a sudden, there was a loud knock at the door.

Bailey blinked and walked towards the door, she opened it, ready to vanquish and use her powers if she needed to. She peeked through the door.

There was a tall, gruff looking man standing on the doorstep, holding what looked to be a sleeping two year old. "Here." He held the child out to Bailey. "I believe she's yours."

Bailey took Serenity, she looked very, very shocked.. "What's.. going on?" She said softly, tilting her head. "Serenity.."

The man raised an eyebrow slightly. "Miz Lucia found a way to make people age faster and that's what she was doing to her." He indicated Serenity. "But you've got a great friend really." He paused momentarily. "That girl with the crazy eye came and traded herself for this girl. She's now a willing test subject and all." The guy shook his head slightly and just left after that.

Bailey was horrified. She shut the door and walked upstairs, the sleeping child in her arms, she looked at GraveRobber. "GraveRobber.." She shook him slightly.

"Hmmmmuh?" He sat up groggily, staring around the room a bit. It took him a few seconds before he noticed Serenity. "How'd we get her back?" He slurred slightly, trying to wipe the sleep from his eyes.

"Rei gave herself up for Serenity.. But I'm going to get her.." She frowned, "Take care of Serenity, please... From now on, tell me you'll always love her.." She said softly.

"I can't just sit by and let you go by yourself." GraveRobber stood.

"I'm not coming back.." Her lip quivered softly, "You and Rei raise Serenity."

"What? I can't let you do this." He frowned. "I'm going with you. The both of you are coming back."

Bailey shook her head gently, "You can and you will. I'm not suppose to be here, GraveRobber, just face that fact."

"Why are you not supposed to be here?" He frowned, grabbing her shoulders gently. "I'm not gonna loose you."

Bailey looked into his eyes, "I was never meant to be, GraveRobber.."
