The Sinking Love (Not Following The Original Storyline)
Shay... stares blankly at the hanging picture...
"She is gorgeous. If only this world is not disordered, is not chaotic or is not corrupted, we will be together." Shay whispers, but loud enough for Gist to hear.
Knowing that his presence is being found out, Gist thumps his way towards Shay.
"You will change this world into a better place. You will, I swear! All of us believe in you, Shay. The ring Captain Monro gave you, it's called trust." says Gist, trying his best to cheer Shay up.
"And look at where he is now! Dead! What is the purpose of my existence? I can't even save my friend! How can I end this mad war?" in great pain and despair, Shay cries out.
"As long as the Templar order is here, we stand..."
"Understand this, Gist. I side with the right ones! If you Templar snakes make me slaughter innocents again, I will hunt you all down! I don't swear my oath to the Templar Order, I swear it to the right-doing party!" Shay stands up and walks out of the captain's cabin of Morrigan (Shay's ship).
As he steps out to broad daylight, his crew quickly informs him that they see Hope in Havana. With haste, Shay steps onto the solid land and runs toward the mansion. He sees a hooded woman, standing on the rooftop, majestic and mysterious.
"Hope!" Shay cries.
She then leaps onto Shay. With a quick movement, Shay dodges the attack then hits on the wall hard. Hope slips out of Shay's vision in the thick bushes and dense vegetations. Shay then calms his mind and follows her track carefully. The chase begins!
She jumps down from a tree and rushes away with Shay running behind her. Shay picks a shorter path and hops over an obstacle after another, then flips onto a wall and boosts himself with his strong leg. He presses Hope on the ground. Their eyes now meet, both chuckles.
"Enough talking... do what you must..." Hope whispers.
"Then how about we stop this pointless fight and talk it through!" Shay clears his though and goes straight to the point.
A sudden pain spreads from Shay's stomach, where Hope's hand is currently pressing against. Shay falls onto the ground... moaning in pain. His stomach, torn and blood dripping... his hear, broken and wounded...
"Why... Hope?" Shay uses his last energy to spit out the words.
Hope remains silent and impales herself with the same blade she used to pierce Shay... she too falls on the ground and holds onto Shay's hand tight and hard.
"Because...I love you..."
