Title: A flash of light
Author: Patrick Huu
Summary: Last reflections of a crewman before he dies... It's kind of corny. A double drabble, if you want, written while I was a little depresses

A flash of light. That's her.
She did come, a silhouette against the light.
And she hurried over. She always was one who hoped.
But it is too late. I know it, deep down there.
This is it. My final journey. I did it again, they tell me - I performed a miracle.
A flash of light and they are all there.
My friends, my colleagues.
My love.
I don't know if she knows, or if she'll ever know.
She tells me to hang on, but I feel my life slipping away.
I didn't think she would care about me.
But she came to my rescue. In a flash of light.
I am content with my life.
I have done good, and I've been in more adventures than anyone else.
Except for her.
I do not fear death. It is only the next great adventure.
But I do fear for her.
I also know he'll be there for her. She will not be alone.
I know she'll be all right.
I crack one last cocky, defiant smile at them and let what is left of my vision linger on her.
And with a flash of light, it is all over.
