Alright! Chapter 2!
I should mention, there'll be a bit of a pattern with the chapters so...look out for that! :D

And speaking of which, the chapter names are also a bit of a reference, can you guess what it is? ;D


~Goodbye Fallen Angels~

A off white void is all he saw, no other color was seen but the ones coming from him. He looked around, intrigued, yet scared of the abyss before him. He remembered very clearly what had happened to him, but he worried about his friend; is he okay?

What had started off as a simple question turned into a never ending cycle of dread, as the more he worried, the grayer the void became.

One negative thought lead to another, and to another, and to another; to the point where the void had reach a state of dark grey. And every worry he thought up, the backdrop would change, showing off the possibility. But his worries didn't just stop at his friend, no no, once those stopped he went on to worry about someone else...someone he liked.

"RURI!" he shouted through his dread.

Falling to his hands and knees in despair, the purple haired boy tried to hold back his tears as he felt them welling up. Flashes of Ruri disappearing playing on repeat in the background like some kind of broken record, all in the while the natural color of the void got duller, and duller.

But then, just before all of the light could be snuffed out, someone approached the distraught teen.

"Yuto...?" a soft voice spoke out.

He knew that voice... Yuto looked up in response to his name being called, as well as the familiarity of the voice, and there he was greeted by a familiar face.

"R-Ruri!?"

And to his shock, as well a relief, it was her; the girl who he loved dearly was standing before him, safe and unharmed. Ruri.

Yuto got up and quickly wrapped his arms around Ruri, finally letting his tears fall as he was overwhelmed by joy.

"Ruri! Oh, I'm so glad you're okay!"

The girl was unsure on how to react. While yes, she was indeed happy to see Yuto again, it's just that...she hadn't realized until now how much she truly meant to him. She was too stunned by it all to give a proper reaction, something that he noticed.

He drew back bit to look at Ruri's face, that being of the look of someone who trying to process something.

"Uh...R-Ruri...?"

She blinked a couple of times.

"Haha, sorry about that Yuto."

"You...you're okay...right...?"

She slightly titled her head to the side with a smile. "Never better. It's been a while huh, Yuto?"

His eyes slightly widened as the background's color shifted to a pure white color, and if one were to look closer, the memories of the two as kids could faintly be seen in the void.

"Ruri...I..."

"Shh, no need to say it."

"But how do you-?"

"Because I've known you long enough to know. Let go Yuto. There's no reason to hold onto the past. You tried your best to save our homeland, to save me, and I'm grateful for it, we all are grateful for it."

She gives him a quick embrace before holding his hand.

"Now come on, it's time we took a nice, long rest."

Yuto smiled at her as his tears continued to fall, nodding in response to what she said.

The two love birds, or should I say angels, turned and waved to seemingly no one before heading on their way.

~Bye!~


Well, that was that.
