This is my first fan-fiction. It's based on a cut scene in Kirlsa involving Roger. I've seen very few fan-fictions about him so I thought i might do one. I hope you enjoy this...
It was nearing dusk, the setting sun casting long shadows through the window of the upper floor of Master Slayer, the armourer of Kirlsa. An ill girl lay in her bed there. The glare hurt the girls eyes, but it didn't really matter.
"She's upstairs" Her sister, Leena, was talking to someone downstairs. "She's burning up with fever and refuses to eat anything."
"I'll do what I can." She heard several footsteps as a doctor came into the room, followed by her sister.
"How are you feeling?" The doctor asked in kindly.
"Not too good." She replied in a weak tone. The doctor placed a hand on her forehead. She would have sworn that at that moment she had put her hand in a furnace. She jerked her hand away. As she did so the girl closed her eyes and breathed a deep sigh then started coughing. The doctor examined her carefully for a while then tookLeena aside.
"Her condition is bad." She told he in a soft whisper. "She might not survive for long."
"You mean she's going to…" the doctor only nodded with a grim look on her face.Leena reflected the emotion, displaying the gloomy expression. The fact that her sister was dying was one thing but to think that she had tried to keep her alive for so long and it was all for nothing was even more disheartening.Leena closed her eyes and thought about when she had spent time with her for so long. She remembered reading the book she made to her. She remembered how she used to feed her. She remembered how much fun she had with her.
Leenajerked her eyes open when she heard the door opening. She glanced down the stairs. A small figure wearing a helmet rushed inside and hastily climbed the stairs.
"Reen!"
He stopped his sprint at her bedside. He picked up her hand slowly, positioning it between his own.
"Reen, Can you hear me. Reen!"
"Roger?" she opened her eyes to look at the Menodix. "Is that you?"
"Reen! I heard you're illness got worse so I came right away. How are you feeling?"
"I feel very…" she broke into a coughing fit before she could finish the sentence.
"Don't die. You're too young to die!"
"I'm sorry but I can't…" she started coughing again. She brought her hand to meet his. "Roger, I want to thank you. You made me happy when you came."
"Reen! Don't leave me, I…"
"Take care of yourself. Good-bye…" at this, she breathed her last breath.
"Reen?" Roger looked stunned. The doctor took the hand Roger wasn't holding on to and checked her pulse. Feeling no blood flow through her vein, she set her hand down. She took a few steps backward and shook her head. Leena looked down, a tear rolling down her face as she closed her eyes. There was a deadly silence until Roger burst into tears. He had his head against her hand and was sobbing.Leena approached him but was barred by the doctor's arm.
"Give him his time." She gestured her towards the stairs. The two of them descended the stairs, leaving the young boy alone with the dead girl.
"Reen…" he muttered slowly. He climbed into the bed with her and placed his forehead on her cheek, bringing his mouth close to her ear.
"You didn't have to die…"
Note: I had to make up thesister's name. It only shows "Dangerous Looking Girl"when you talk to her in the game.
