Ok. This isn't a Oneshot. Well, maybe. I haven't decided yet. If it turns into a story, It's gonna be short. Please don't flame for that.

I Don't Want To Leave You

Summary: As Mio's world begins to fall apart, she begins to face another difficult choice. MioxItsuki.

Warning: Spoilers for the first ending of Project Zero/Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly.


Mio's heart raced as she finally reached her sister at the brink of the X. As she took a step foward, Mayu's voice made her jump slightly because of the adreniline pumping through her veins and heart. Maybe...just maybe, they'd make it home...both of them..together.

"Mio." Mayu's voice seemed icy cold and full of sorrow, so icy in fact that on hearing it, Mio's body temparature dropped. "We were born together..."

Mio took a half-step towards her sister. "...But we have to live, and die separately.." Mayu's eyes took sudden interest in her shoes. She couldn't look her twin in the eye. "I knew this...I knew.." Mayu blinked back tears.

Mio responded by taking more steps towards her sister. "Mayu.." She walked closer and closer, ignoring the spirit priests watching their every move. "We'll be together...we will."

Mayu blinked, but this time, kept her eyes shut a little longer, as if grimacing. "We can't be together forever."

Suddenly a loud clashing could be heard. The vielied priests banged their staffs on the ground repeatedly. Mio's heart beat against her ribcage. What was happening?

Mayu suddenly lay on her back, on the stone altar just centimetres away from the hellish, black Abyss.

"But with this, we can become one." Mayu's arms reached for her sister's wrists to firmly place them on her neck. "So it's alright."

Mayu beckoned to her sister to lean closer. As Mio did, Mayu whispered her final words. "Kill me."

Now, the priests' banging became more frequent, as if impatient. Mio just had to stare at what was happening. She felt powerless. It was as if her hands were being controlled by another; it was like floating above and witnessing herself destroy her twin sister, Mayu- her own flesh and blood- with her bare hands.

As Mayu's life gently faded away, her life flashed before her eyes. She no longer saw her sister on top of her, killing her with her own hands. No, she saw scenes from her childhood, of her slipping down the steep mountain path because she couldn't bear the pain of being left alone. As the scene stopped, she saw her beloved sister again, only briefly. Mio slipped from her light hold on her arms. Mio faded into the dark. Everything was dark. Mayu had slipped away.

Suddenly the clashing of the priests' staffs on the cold, hard ground stopped. As Mio felt the sickly, pale ice that was her twin sister's skin, she softly let go of her neck, which now had a crimson bruise- in the shape of a crimson butterfly. Mio watched in a mixture of confusion, amazement and horror as the crimson firefly-like insect gently beat it's wings and ascended to the heavens.

While the beautiful, crimson creature that was Mayu's soul flew so gracefully, two mourners made their way foward and each gripped an end of Mayu's human body. Then, with no hesitation, threw Mayu's lifeless body into the darkness that was the Aybss.

The butterfly reached Mio's level. A voice, that was by no doubt Mayu's, could be heard. "Thank you."

Mio ran to the very edge of the deep, rectangluar Abyss. "Mayyyuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" She called to the butterfly leaving her to flutter up to the heavens above.

Mio ran as fast as she could up the steep hill, tripping multiple times along the way. She had lack of attention to what she was doing; due to the tramatic event that had just happened. Worse, she'd made it happen. It was her fault.

"Mayu! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" She called multiple times between sobs as she chased her sister's butterfly.

Mayu's butterfly flew foward, to join the rest of the crimson butterflies that seemed to pour out of the Abyss.

Then, her sister's butterfly doubled back, to land on Mio's finger for a split second, and then, flutter off to join the other chosen children to flutter up to heaven, on the wings of a butterfly.

Mio's arm still reached out for her sister's butterfly that was leaving her to ascend to heaven. Mio's head pounded. She finally realised what she had done. Unable to take anymore, Mio covered her crying eyes with both hands and dropped to her knees, sobbing as the sun set in All God's Village for the first time in a century.

As the clusters and clusters of crimson butterflies cleared the sky, Mio was still sobbing, and didn't notice two figures walking steadily towards her..
