Can you stop, please?
Can you stop the fire?
You cant stop the fire,
you wont say the words.
Please, Please

I lay on the floor, feeling myself slipping from this world, trying to hold on hard to my soul and my dreams as they floated around me. I guess it was finally it. I was dying.

It went as planned though. I wasn't supposed to live through this mission. That's the reason why I took it. To die. I've been taken for granted, I've been forgotten about. I didn't want to go on anymore, knowing that he didn't care about me as I did for him. And that hurt alot more then now.

But really, suicide wasn't what I was going to do. I'd rather die with honor and dignity, the way I just did; by taking up a dangerous mission where the chance I'd come out living is 5 percent.

All around Central, there's been thefts and murders, all suspected to be one man. The militay found where he was stationed; what my job was was to distract him if I could, as my orders were to corner him and if I could, kill him. Which I succeded to do. But then he dropped the gun.

The next thing that happened I thought only happened in movies. Or was completely rare at least. But I guess at the right angle, it could happen. As he dropped the gun, something clicked off inside the gun, setting it off when it hit the ground. That's why I'm on the concrete floor, my head gushing blood from the gun wound.

I hope he'll come though...I want to be able to see his face before I pass on. He should be here, he was in the building as back-up, he should've heard the gunshots.

Minutes past, and I feel the cold tendrils of death surrounding me. I feel so tired, not sure if I can stay consious anymore. Then I finally see him.

The shock of me on the bloody ground passes him quickly. He rushes to my side, lifting my head from the ground and screams my name. I smile dizzily at him. "You came..."

"Dammit Riza...just...hold on okay? I'm gonna get help."

It was getting harder to talk. I just shake my head at him, no matter how much that hurt. He gives me a pained look, setting me down gently and running off.

I sigh, wishing he would come back. I never got to tell him...that I loved him...

The world swirled to black as my eyes closed and I lost all sense of consiousness.

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll look up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"
