Blood...
Thats what he felt on his clothes at the moment right...?
It was blood, it was streaming down her Goddess-like face...
And tears...
He felt tears on his face...
He layed there crying...crying as he mourned the loss of his one true love...
was her death meant to be...? Was it God's work here...?
Or was it just a cruel play of fate on his family name...?
For Johann Faust VIII...nothing could be certain...
- 7 years later...
"Hmmmm...If I move the incision here...and then cut through a part here...yes...yes indeed..." He smirked insanely, proud of his handiwork while his skeletal wife watched over his shoulder, not showing any emotion, devoid of smiles and cheerfullness that he knew she used to have. She was emotionless, but he knew...or perhaps through his morphine induced delusions he forced himself to think, that she still loved him as much as they used to...even if it was true, she was emotionless and devoid of happiness now. But he didn't ever notice, because he was just happy she was there. If he had more Furyoku, he would have kept her in her natural skin toned form that his oversoul let him use. But he was just too weak to keep up that much power for too long. Much to his great sadness. But still she was there! So he was content, at least until he finally finds a way to resurrect her fully.
"Ah! My dear! Its complete!" He smiled victoriously and madly as he shone his new creation, he had killed an enemy of Yoh Asakura's and made the enemy's finger bones into a very cruel yet appealing necklace; The necklace itself had a chain, but the other parts, the decorated parts were made of the fingers, the sharp edges added to the sinister look of the accessory. But to Faust, it probably looked like the Heart of the Ocean (See TItanic Movie 1998) and he just smiled putting one necklace on while putting the other on his beloved's skeleton. He smiled even more and he hugged her gently, to which she hugged him back thoughtlessly.
"My dear it looks so lovely on you! Im just sorry that it had to be made from...those pests..." He says and he shrugs not caring for the mutilated bodies of the 2 thugs that had tried to kill Yoh earlier. Faust sighed contently with his beloved's skeleton in his arm as the two of them went to the bedroom and layed together on his bed, he slept not a wink but he stared all night at the skeleton, knowing indeed that she, was staring back at him. Even without her eyes, her skin, or anything, inside that skeleton, inside those lifeless voids of eyes, he saw her own, beautifal blue eyes, staring lovingly back at him and he kissed her jawbone lightly.
"I love you my dear Eliza, more than life, more than anything in this entire world." I smiled and nuzzles her, he heard a mild grunt from the skeleton and he smiled inwardly,he knew what she was saying. She was saying the exact same thing, only directed at him now and he more than happily held her as close to him as he could, until finally, morning would come, and they would be off to the Shaman fight.
