Notes: Hi, this is my 3rd Yu X Naoto Fan fiction. But this time it is not a one-shot; this story will have 2 chapters. I may upload the next chapter on the next day or the day after as I have other ideas ready to written out. I will be doing the next chapter of "Fate questioning our bonds" VERY soon. So here goes:

Summary: Inspired by "Light" and "Dark" by FortunesRevolver. The Fight of the True final boss of the game and the scene of Yu Narukami leaving Inaba.

~Chapter 1: Falling before the Goddess~

"Why are you still fighting? Give up! You can never defeat me, mortals!" Izanami-No-Okami yelled at Yu and his friends as they fought desperately, trying to bring the goddess down to save their world from turning into shadows. "We have come this far, we not giving up now until you are dead!" Yu shouted back at the demonic creature. We are almost there; we just need to hang in there a little longer.

~Before the fight~

Earlier that morning, Yu was at his room, packing up as tomorrow will be day he would leave Inaba to go back to the city. Yu was about to pack up his clothing in his cabinet when he saw a picture in one of his side pocket of his jacket. He reached out and took out the picture from the pocket and stared at it. It was the picture of him and his friends standing together, smiling brightly towards the camera. He smiled warmly as he recalls the memories he had made with them. He recalls the days he spent hanging out with his friends at the beach during the summer and skiing down the mountains during the winter. He laughed mentally that they still find the time to have fun while trying to solve the mysterious murder case that happened in Inaba last year. He remembers those incidents so well that it felt like it just happened yesterday, still pretty much fresh inside in his head. All his friends, Yukiko, Yosuke, Chie, Kanji and Rise each had made a memory that was meaningful and unique to him that will make him remember them till the end of time. But none can made longer-lasting memories than his beloved girlfriend, Naoto. He never regretted his actions to show affections to her when they were alone. He could never forget how cute she was when she blushed or how happy she was when he told her that he was going to spend the day with her alone. He wished he could stay in Inaba forever, to spend the rest of his life there with his friends and the love of his life.

He sighed as he put back the picture into his luggage and began to finishing up his packing up. When he was finished packing up, he heard Nanako calling him to come down, "The phone!" Yu went downstairs to receive the phone from Nanako and then he put it to his ear. "Hello?" he wondered who it could be calling right now. "Oh hello, Senpai. Naoto here." It was Naoto calling from the end of the line. "Oh hi, Naoto." He was a bit surprised that she would be the one calling him. "Is there something you need?" "…" That was a moment of silence in between them "Is there something you want to talk about?" Yu asked. "…Yes…" More silence, Yu could sense that his girlfriend was having trouble speaking to him. It was then he realized just she wanted to talk about. "It is about tomorrow, right?" He heard a sharp grasp from her, which was when he knew he hit the jackpot. "Yes, it is about tomorrow…Can we meet up at the hill?" Naoto sounded depressed. "Sure, I will be there in a moment." He put down the phone, grabbed the keys and headed towards the bus stop.

Yu meet up with Naoto at the hill, the place where they usually hang out and spent time looking down at the small town of Inaba. But this time, it would be the last time the couple would spend together as one of them would have to leave Inaba tomorrow. They stood looking out to the distance, admiring the view beneath them as the flowers bloom, swaying left and right as the gentle and warm winds blows, signaling the arrival of spring. Yu wished he could stay, so he could see this view with his beloved one forever, never to worry of one leaving the other alone. But Fate had other plans, Yu sighed sadly as he reluctantly accepted it, knowing his wish would not come true due to his parents constant need to move places because of work. "I wished you wouldn't have to go…" Naoto sighed as she turned her gaze towards Yu. "I wished so too" said as he turned to face her. "But I knew it would never happen…knowing the fact that you are transferred here temporary and to have to leave someday." She said sadly as she slowly held his hand and gripped it tightly. "Naoto…" Yu felt ashamed and pained to see her depressed. He searched desperately in his head to try to find the words to comfort her. "I thought about it last night…I thought about how I lonely I feel once you leave Inaba." Naoto cast her eyes down to ground as she continues, "Knowing that there won't be a case to solve with you, knowing that I won't be to spent time with you here and knowing that I won't be able to see your face again makes me feel somewhat listless." She looks up to meet his eyes and smiled sadly, "But even though I felt this way, somewhere in my head tells me that you will come back to whenever you can."

"So please don't forget your time here…treasure the time we spent solving the case together, the fun time we had spending together with your friends." Naoto fought hard not to allow the tears that were beginning to form in her eyes. "And don't forget about me…remember the time we spent together…when I confessed my love for you…when you accepted me for who I was…" She could not hold it back anymore. Tears started pouring out from her eyes as she grasped Yu's hand tightly. Yu took his free hand and gently pushed her head to his chest, allowing something for her to cry on. Her hands cling on tightly onto his shirt, hanging on to him, not wanting him to leave her. Yu whispered quietly to her ear, "I will, Naoto, I will not forget the memories we had made together in the past few months." He wrapped his arms tightly around her. "I won't say goodbye, because I know for sure we will meet again." Naoto looked up at the sliverette wiping off her tears. "So wait for me, Naoto…I will do whatever I can to come back for you." She nodded in response. They slowly closed the gap between them and pressed their lips against each other, taking what seemed to be last opportunity they had to see each other.

~During the fight~

After what seems like hours of countless healing each other, dodging attacks, casting out their personas, Yu and his friends were exhausted, panting heavily as they ran out energy to fight any longer. "Why you mortals can't understand? It is impossible for you mortals to defeat me." The goddess remarked as she towers over the party. "Humans don't want the truth, they prefer the lies…They want to live in blissful ignorance, they want to live a world in the fog where they can see what they want and to believe what they want." "No…y-you are wrong…We don't -" Yu tried to argue with her that they don't want the truth but he was too exhausted to talk. "I guess I have to make you understand…" Izanami said in a dark, ominous tone. "YU, LOOK OUT!" Yosuke yelled as he started running towards him. Suddenly, he felt a sharp tug in his leg. Huh? Yu looked down to see what was pulling him. He was horrified. He saw a dark pit covering the ground beneath him, with multiple hands reaching out to him, trying to drag him down into the void of darkness. "NOT A CHANCE!" Yosuke shove his partner out of the way, knocking him out of the pit, within out of grasp of the ghostly-like hands. The hands immediately switched focus towards the brunette and started dragging him down. Realizing what was happening; Yu quickly got back in his feet and reached out his hand as he tried to save his friend. But it was too late. The many hands that surround Yosuke already pulled him down to his chest and in the next few seconds he would be gone. "YOSUKE, FIGHT IT!" "Sorry partner, I can't…" With a grunt of pain, he turned to face the sliverette before flashing one last smile as he was being pulled into the void of the darkness. "YOOSUKEEE!" In a matter of seconds, he disappeared into the darkness.

Rise grasped in horror in the background as she saw one of her friends disappeared right in front of her. At this moment, the goddess was already preparing to launch another attack at Yu. Seeing this, Yukiko immediately shoved him out of the way and she took the oncoming attack for him. She screamed as the hands too begin to drag her down into the darkness. "YUKIKO! NO!" Yu shouted. He was shocked to see that she too turned to him and smiled, saying goodbye before she vanished in the pit. "No, this can't be happening…" Rise just stood there, horrified as she finally realized that what is really going on. "We had come so far…" After the first two attacks, Yu stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do. He did not want his mind to think about what was going to happen after this. He thought if he allowed his mind to drift off, the very idea of it will become reality.

He glanced to the side; spotting Naoto who was the only one left fighting alongside with him. Somewhere deep within his head tells him that she was next. NO! PLEASE NO! His pleads were never answered. A dark pit suddenly appeared beneath him and hands reached out from the pit, attempting to grab his legs. His worst fears became reality. Naoto pushed roughly to his right, forcing him away from the oncoming attack. "NOOO!" His cry echoed across the battle field. He hit the ground hard. But it was not enough to divert his attention from Naoto.

There had been no scream or sound from the detective that indicates that she was in pain. Her sliver-blue eyes connected with his horrified gray eyes. Time stopped as their gazes met. They both knew what was going to happen next. Yu wished it could be stopped forever. Tears sparkled in the corners of the sleuth's eyes, but she blinked them away as quickly as they begin to from, refusing to let them fall. A small smile graced her lips as more hands appeared from the dark pit that she stood, her gaze never left Yu's.

Yu reached out his hand, desperately trying to grab her hand and pull her out of void of darkness. Naoto raised her hand towards his direction, reaching out to him. Unfortunately, their hands were unable to contact with each other. Knowing the fact that she cannot be saved, her slender fingers closed tightly into a fist as the hand fell, hanging limply to her side. Her smile grew faintly, but it held a sorrowful air around it that would never go away. Her lips mouthed out words slowly and quietly as the ghostly-like hands pull her from all sides. Yu heard every single word that she said.

"Please fight on, don't give up, Yu….I love you"

In the next few seconds, she was gone. "No…" Yu shook his head in disbelief as he got down to his knees in front of the spot that Naoto stood just moments ago, unable to accept the truth that she was gone. "NOOOOOOOO!" He slammed both his fist in the ground as tears fell from his eyes. WHY! Why this had to happen? TELL ME WHY! Yu shouted the question in his mind. "Now you understand? This is the cruel side of reality." The goddess said. "Now, it is time to say goodbye…accept the reality of your death!" Izanami-no-Okami moved towards him, preparing her next attack. This time, they won't be anyone left to take the attack for him. Yu stared blankly at the ground. The feelings in his legs were gone; he could not find the strength to stand up anymore. He vaguely registered the cries of Rise's voice, pleading to him to stand up and fight somewhere in the background. But the words fell on deaf ears, his brain was simply too exhausted to process those words.

"Any last words?" The goddess asked as he ready to launch another attack at him. Yu mouthed out the words silently. "Hmm?" The goddess leaned in closer to hear him better. "I…" Blood starts to boil in his veins, he clenched his sword tightly. He felt the heat building up inside him. "I AM NOT GIVING UP TO THE LIGHTS OF YOU, YOU SON OF A BITCH!" He let it all out in one go.

"Hmmph, such an ignorant mortal…" The goddess smirked and slam down her arms at him. The dark pit surrounded him once again. Hand pulled him from all sides as he began his descent into the void of darkness. He could not struggle as he had no strength left to do so. He could only close his eyes, allowing the void to consume him completely.

He was left nothing but darkness.

So… how was it? A bit dark isn't it? Well this is my first time writing such a thing…

I am not sure when the next chapter would come out. (My freaking brother wants to play the computer thus shortening my time to only write part of a story) So… stay tuned!
