In Death Could not Part.......
Author's notes: This is a fic about an alternate, bittersweet ending to FF9 . My very first fic, written in
Garnet's P.O.V. I don't own the characters, only the plot of this story.
I couldn't bear to leave him, but it just had to be. I looked down with tears in my eyes at the one I had come to love. The roots were going wild, I hoped with all my heart that I'd see him again.......alive. We landed safely in Alexandria. I quickly resumed my duties as queen. Two long months passed, I still didn't hear from Zidane. This was too long a wait. I went to the Iifa tree, hoping to find him. He wasn't there. I searched Madain Sari, all the while saying to myself, "I hope you're here, I hope you're here ". But he wasn't there. Exhausted, I went to the Black Mage Village to rest. When I got there, I was greeted by many sad and mournful faces. Monokone came up to me, sobbing her heart out. She pointed towards the graveyard. I instantly knew something was wrong . As I headed towards the graveyard, I hoped and prayed that what I feared the most hadn't happened. When I got there, my heart skipped a beat. There was a new grave. I read the tombstone, it said : Here lies Zidane Tribal Angel of Death Number 2 , He Died Saving the Man who tried to Destroy Gaia , ... a Truly Noble Deed. May H e Rest in Peace I started sobbing and sobbing, my heart was broken. He was gone.........with him, my hopes. Zidane, my true love was dead. Behind me, I heard a Black Mage say, " W-we found him at the Iifa Tree. We brought him here and t-tried to heal him, but it w-was t-too late. H-his last words were......' Tell Dagger I loved her'......Th-then he s-stopped." I couldn't think clearly. I remember running and running, blinded by tears, then a sensation of falling, then pain, then blackness...........I saw a bright white light shining on me, around me, in me. Then I heard a familiar voice. " Dagger, how'd you get here?" Zidane?!! I was so happy that I leapt into his arms. He told me all about what happened. Now I know where we are,...... Heaven. I am finally, once again happy. Zidane is with me, we will never be parted again.
Ending notes: Garnet's body was found by one of Vivi's children, in a valley near Conde Petie. She
was buried beside Zidane. A new tombstone was erected for the both of them. It read:
Here lie two who helped save the world, a love so Strong, in Death
Could Not Part.
Freya, Stiener, Vivi, Eiko, Beatrix, Amarant, Quina, and all of Tantalus came to mourn the death of two of the saviors of the world.
