"Oh, please, dear one...I dont like it when you're sad! I'm here, like always, I'm just slightly someone else, too!"
Nariko looked back at Ezekiel, blinking, and a look of hope on her face. That was Zaine's voice... it was really Zaine... it was really Zaine!! She actually smiled, glad that he wasn't completely dead. "Zaine..." she said, and not knowing what else to say, quickly wrapped her arms around him. She was so overjoyed that he was alive! Well, kind of alive. At least he wasn't gone forever, at least she could still hear his voice and know he was still there.
"....I love you, Nariko..."
She smiled again, resting her forehead against his. "I love you too," she said. "More than anything." She didn't care if it was Zaine with a different body or a different appearance, it didn't matter to her. She kissed his cheek, ecstatic. She obviously wasn't sad anymore.
