The black haired female held the cruxis crystal in her hands. He told them to destroy it, but she couldn't. The red stone glistened in the sun light that danced through the gaps of the cherry blossom tree. Her brown eyes glanced up at the pink leaves then back to the ruby red crystal in her hands.
He was gone. Just like those before him. The villagers, Grandfather, Corrine, now Zelos. Her grip tightened slightly as she bit back the tears begging to stream down her cheeks. A lump grew in her throat as she tried to swallow back the sadness that overwhelmed her. She shouldn't cry, but she really wanted to.

The cruxis crystal warmed in her hand, pulsing under her touch. Her eyes widened as it glowed brightly and a silhouette appeared before her. Red floated in the empty air. Blue eyes locking with brown eyes. A causal smile met a saddened smile. Tears finally freed from their bonds.

"Didn't think you would miss so much, Miss Ju-" He started only to be interrupted by the broken and hurt words of the female.

"Baka! Idiot! You promised me!" She screamed, hot bitter tears rolling down her cheeks. She crumbled to the ground, burring her face into her hands.

Her voice grew soft as she whispered out the last bit of words. "You promised that you would find me a place, that we could be together..."

Zelos' eyes widened as his ghostly form kneeled down to the broken ninja before him. His ghostly hand resting on her back. Her body shook before she looked up at him, here eyes studying him carefully through the tears. His form faded slightly before growing stronger. He looked down at the weeping girl, thinking over his decisions.

"Sheena," he whispered softly, drawing her attention. Her puffy eyes still had tears running from them, but he couldn't wipe them away. "I'm sorry, Sheena."

The ninja shook her head, looking up at him. "I should have seen that something was wrong," she muttered. "You are going to disappear just like Alicia, aren't you?"

Zelos nodded his head, looking up at the cherry blossom tree. "Yeah. Soon." Sheena frowned as she stood to her feet, trying to hug him, only to have her arms faze through his ghostly form.

"When I fade, will you please destroy my Cruxis Crystal?" He asked turning back towards Sheena. She nodded her head, whipping away her tears. "I have a bit, so tell me what's happened."

"Lloyd made the pact with Origin and now possess the eternal sword. Cruxis is gone and worlds have been joined together," she stated. "Seles was released from the abbey, just like she wanted, but..."

"But what?"

"She's sad that you died, so is everyone." The ninja told her friend. The man frowned heavily. "She opened up to me though. I'll watch over her for as long as I can, I promise." The ninja vowed. "And summoners always hold their promises close to their heart."

"Thank you... And Goodbye, Sheena." He whispered as he began to fade. Sheena's eyes widened as she tried to grab onto him in a desperate attempt to keep him there.

"Ikanaide! No Don't Go!" She cried as he began to fade away. He gave her a sad smile as he began to fade away. She reached her hand only to catch nothing but air. He was gone. The teenager crumpled to the ground wailing, releasing all her sadness.

"See you later, Sheena."
