"Hey. So, I guess I'm dead then. Well shit, that sucks. Hopefully I went out in a cool way, explosion maybe? Tch, knowing how useless you are, I was probably saving your life – again – so you better have escaped you idiot… which I suppose you did, seeing as you're listening to this. Okay, ignore that."
"Damn, just thought that if I did die saving your life you're probably blaming yourself. Dumbass, I knew what I was doing – yes, despite what it may look like…have looked like? Damn, do I talk about myself in the past tense now? Nevermind! It's not important. What is important is that you know it's not your fault. Got it? Don't make me have to knock some more sense into you."
"Right, now you better not screw this up. Take what's in the envelope and finish it, exactly how we had planned – the map is probably pointless right? Okay, burn that. Anyway, you're ready. I know you can do this because… well yeah, despite everything I may have said, I don't think you're weak – just an idiotic dumbass."
"And… I guess I should also say sorry – so, I'm sorry. No seriously, I am sorry – for everything. This was my fault after all – so yeah, you can blame me for everything. None of my reasons really matter in the end I guess… I mean, we were friends, right? Damn, I guess I probably died not knowing where we stood. Though, I also would never have sacrificed myself for someone I didn't consider a friend… That probably sounds pathetic, but you did become someone I trusted. So yeah, thanks for that – and for trusting me… for however long or short it may have been."
"Well, I didn't really give much thought on how I would finish this. Hopefully you understood it all, so yeah – I guess one day I might see you on the other side…"
"Oh yeah, one more thing. This is important. Whatever happens, please don't forget abou–"

'You have no new messages.'
AN: Okay, this is an AU idea that has been sitting in my brain for a bit and just demanded to be put down on paper. I've never really gotten into AU's so I'm not sure how well this is going to go, but I'm willing to give it a try anyway. Also, this has a M rating for language and violence.
