Tears poured down from Illyana's big, blue eyes. Her bottom lip trembled. She was surprised when Kitty wrapped her arms more tightly around her quivering body. "I -- I killed you!" she wailed. "You must want me far away from you!"

"On the contrary, my dear," Kitty replied with a grin she hoped would be contagious, "I want you all over me."

Illyana gawked at her. "But . . . But how?!" she cried, stunned.

"Illyana," Kitty consoled, caressing her beautiful face with loving hands, "that wasn't me you killed. Not really. You killed a me from an alternate universe to survive. And it wasn't like it was really even you. You were already being affected by Limbo and Belasco."

Illyana shook her head. Her long, blonde hair flew wildly about her face and entangled with Kitty's fingers. "I knew what I was doing, Kitty! I chose to kill you so I could live!"

"Not me," Kitty said again. "A me from an alternate reality who was probably evil any way."

"She wasn't."

"You don't know that. She pretended to be the real me, so you don't know what the real her was like." She silenced Illyana's further protests with a finger against her mouth. "Now hush. It doesn't matter what you did in Limbo. I love you regardless." She caressed her hair. "It's behind you now, love. Let the past stay buried where it belongs." She kissed her passionately. The past would never stay buried, but Kitty would also never stop loving her best friend.

The End
