Together Forever: Prologue
Gwen's POV:
As the rubble fell to the ground around me and smoke from the fire invades my lungs I think about my life. My life, which will now end. I knew it would end but never like this. In a warehouse trapped in with the dancing flames that lick at my skin, a pain I am now use to. Summoning the last of my power I try to create a small Mana dome over my aching body. But my power slips through my fingers like water. More rubble falls, more fire descends, the more I realise I won't make it out of this. As I stumble around hope still present in my mind.
I have to make it! I have to! It can't all end, not now! Not after mine and Kevin's first kiss! I need to tell him I love him, feel his warm arms wrap themselves around me.
"I'm sorry Kevin!" I cry into the universe. Then my knee's give out beneath me, as I land I smack my head on the floor. I can feel the wetness of blood and tears.
My eyelids flicker closed.
This time I have to realise they aren't coming to get me. I have to understand that I won't ride in Kevin's car with the window down with the wind making my hair fly out behind me. I have to understand that I can no longer glower at my cousin for making such a stupid comment. I have to understand that our first kiss will be our last kiss.
I open my eyes one last time to see a shadowed figure towering over me, just looking at me.
I... really... did... try... to... make... it...
