Summary:They were lucky to have lived in a world where there was a happily ever after, but what if that was not the case? An exploration of a "What if?" that results in what most would not expect...

An Ending of Sorts Anger courses through your veins, You can't be human, Your father falls, To deceive the deceiver, Why must he be gone? It is not up to you, ----------- He laughs at their pain, The traitors of blood, The one you protected, They rush to your side, You scream in joy, ------- The golden maiden falls, Blood runs down your swords, --------- Inert forms fade into green, An idealist is no more, Two souls are now one, Feathers of light rain down from the sky, Nothing is left to take them out of this,
A possession of sorts,
Who can really tell?
Could it truly be you?
A self buried in horrified despair?
Power strengthening,
Blood having long gone,
To somewhere far far away--,
Where?
Your senses flee,
As emotions are repressed,
Why is everything so fuzzy?
As he should have,
Before he made such a foolish choice,
The master of lies,
He countered with his own fabrications,
It was time for him to die,
Before you can truly meet!
Stars hide in the sky above you,
As blood pools at your feet,
To voice your beliefs,
The demon,
What a sad thought!
It is he who speaks,
And your soul falls farther still,
Down into a silent abyss,
…Oblivion?...
…Wings?…
They are not yours to wear,
Yet at least,
------------
Ubiquitous and ever present,
It is time,
He believes,
To put the rest through their paces,
In his mind,
At least,
Fall side by side to the ground,
Amid shocked gasps and shrieks,
Tears silently streak,
Alone with your,
Friends?
He smiles maliciously,
And falls to the ground in faux despair,
Ignorant of the danger,
How foolish your friends are,
How innocent and eager!
Or was it him pain,
His bloodlust rises,
You watch silently,
Why do you even care?
The abyss brightens!
Your fall slowing down,
You are being rescued,
Since when did you glow at all?
-------
To the ground splattered red,
Moans and cries erupt,
How could you have done this to them?
Stained a bright luscious red,
You smirk at their stillness,
He smiles at their pain,
Cackles burst forth,
Wings now erupt,
They are yours!
The abyss is done away with!
You are now truly corrupt!
---------
As the sky swallows you up,
There is no way to salvation,
A truly,
Truly foolish thought,
All led to naught,
A good intention was led astray,
As easily as it was got,
Since that moment,
Rather ironic,
As both were identical from the start,
People have lost their hope,
The worlds will now inevitably die,
Falling into the same dark abyss,
But the wings have already taken flight,
An ending of sorts is what is left to the night.
A/N: An alternate ending where Mithos does successfully posess Lloyd in Torrent Forest after releasing Origin's seal...and all hell breaks loose... I have a strange obsession with writing about Mithos...Dunno why...Guess the lunatic factor kinda pulls me in...
