Next prompt, Pheonix Risen. Note, this is to take place after The darkening sky saw him die prompt. To summarize that one, Isaac had taken a fatal blow to protect Doopliss, and died in the heat of battle. Mimi, Mr. L, Luigi, Mario, Bowser, and Peach were the only other ones to see this happen.

Doopliss stepped away from the corpse, pulling Isaac's coat, still warm, around him. This.. This was too much. Doopliss couldn't believe Isaac died. Let alone to protect him. HIM. A plain Duplighost. Doopliss shook his head. No, Isaac protected him because Isaac loved him. Doopliss turned, and started to walk away.

Then he noticed the flames. He turned, watching as flames engulfed the corpse, burning it away. When the smoke cleared, the fire stopped, and the light dimmed, Doopliss gasped. Laying in the ashes, dressed in gray, Sapphire Pheonix wings attached to his back, was Isaac, passed out. How this happened, Doopliss didn't know, but he was rushing to Isaac's side either way.

The others turned, too. Isaac was stirring, slightly, at Doopliss' touch. His eyes, now ringed with sapphire blue, glanced up. He smiled, sleepily, and said, "See? Told you I'd never leave you."

Doopliss smiled, happily hugging the tired shinigami, ignoring the others.
