Summary: Sometimes love is not enough to overcome all obstacles…
Bittersweet
My love
We hold hand,
We fight,
We kiss
We sigh,
Tonight,
I give,
My soul
To thee.
My love,
Tonight,
I die in peace,
I say good bye
Its bittersweet
The fight is over; Angel and Spike were the only ones left. Corpses of demons lay scattered around them. Spike almost jumped for joy if it wasn't for the fact that he's utterly exhausted. He took a glance around and noticed Gunn's body. Dead, lifeless… no longer able to see the sun rise or sun set… but he died with the knowledge that somehow, his death is not wasted, that his death helped save more lives than anyone in the world. A few feet away from Gunn lay Illyria's body. The armor gone, leaving only flesh that's marred with scars and bruises, and the horrible thing is… it's also lifeless…
Spike looked over to Angel just in time to see the other man collapse. Immediately, Spike grabbed him and slowly lowered him down.
"Angel… we survived. We're still here." Spike told Angel, noticing the slight pump of Angel's heart…. Angel's shanshu has been granted!
Excitedly, Spike asked, "Angel, can you feel it? You're a real boy now!"
Coughing out blood, Spike realized that Angel was badly injured. That he had a huge gash across his stomach and his guts are almost spilling out.
Tears flooded Spike's eyes. "NOOOO!" He screamed as he held Angel close to him.
"No. NO. nononononono.. NO!!! You can't die now! NOT NOW!!!!" tears were flowing freely from Spike's eyes. Each tears dropping down to Angel's face.
"S-Spike… I… I love… you…" And with that, Angel's eyes closed and Spike heard the faint pump of Angel's heart turn to a complete stop.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" a loud roar rung throughout the L.A. night.
