"This Was My Fate"
Fate.
What's so special about it? Well, it's funny how at first you can avoid one fate, but just as easily slip into another. It depends on which path you take when given a choice. At first, I never thought much of these things. I was with Cloud and the others, and I was happy. I thought my fate was to stay with them and save our Planet. But…it didn't work out quite like that.
Now, I'm watching my friends…my family, fly to the skies to save us from Sephiroth. The wind blows, but I can't feel it. For I am really not even standing there…I'm dead. Not existing.
My fate wasn't as kind as I thought it would be. But…I wanted to see my friends once…just once in their moment of glory. They defeated Shinra, and are sailing off in the Highwind. I want to cry…I feel so happy, but so sad that I cannot share their triumph…but no tears can come from a ghost.They're going farther away now…this will be the last time I see them. I want to yell and tell them, "Here I am! I want to come with you!" But I can't…for I'm not even there.
Clutching my flower to my heart, I pray for my friends' well-being. Although I don't share their fate, I made my own. I gave them a fighting chance. My flower drops to the ground, but since it's not even real, it just disappears.
I could feel the wind pick up. My spirit is going to disappear soon…like my little flower. As cruel as this was…watching my friends leave me behind, I don't regret any of it, nor do I feel bad. This was the choice I made…this was my fate.
