He staggers over to me, faltering at every step, blood pouring from his neck. He collapses on the ice next to me. I gather all my strength and manage a strained whisper.
"Hige, is that you?"
"Yes Blue, I'm here."
Content that I am again by his side I manage a smile. I regret nothing. I have served my purpose; the others must continue to fight Darcia without me. I joined a pack, I went on an adventure, and I met the flower maiden and most of all, I found someone who accepts me for what I am. Hige, I love him so. I will miss him. Pain surges through my body, it consumes me. The end will come soon and my suffering will end. At last. I have suffered too much, but now, it ends here. I have served justice.
Hige runs his hand through my hair and two drops of blood trickle down my forehead. Everything starts to go blurry, and I close my eyes.
I rise again in a field of lush grass. My wounds have been healed. I look forwards to see Toboe and Pops. I run towards them and my heart races with joy. This is it. This is not the end, it is a new beginning, it is Paradise, and I am here. I made it. My name is Blue, and I am truly happy.
