St. Elmo's Fire: 1) I really meant to not put any tag because the one shots might go past anime, and 2) Sorry, I got used to doing that.
Ash's POV
I ran, I ran away from everything. Just kept running, humming a song I knew since birth.
Oh you dark black eyes, full-of-passion-eyes
I laughed. Don't have that anymore... Ever since that incident.
Oh you burning eyes, how you hypnotise
How stupid I was then, listening to the advice of people who wanted to bring me down.
Now I love you so, but I fear you though
There was one not like the others, though. I thought she was a traitor, but she ended up being one of the only loyalists.
Since you glanced at me not so long ago
I feel so afraid. My country is being persecuted in every other country but eight.
Oh I see you now, you are dark and deep
Oh yes, the world is. Why does everything have to be so complicated?
I see grief and feel that my soul will weep
It's already weeping. This is the worst (and possibly last) day of my life.
I see now in you a winning burning glow
Yeah, as if. I miss my family and TRUE friends...
In my poor heart will a fire grow
But just maybe, I'm not hopeless. Maybe I can still live a normal life.
I' m not sorrowful, I'm not repenting
I'm proud to be a Vostoki. I'm proud of the great Motherland.
I accept all that my fate's presenting
I just need to get to Johto, and I'll be okay... I'm almost there! I hear the sound of rushing water, and footsteps...
All the best in life, God has given us-
Oh no, they've found me! I need to run, I need to hide somewhere! Hey look, a giant boulder! I can hide there!
This I sacrifice, to you dark black eyes
While I tried ducking under a rock, I felt a gunshot. I felt something penetrate my chest. I felt weak. I slowly slumped over.
I was killed, and nobody knew, nor cared.
A/N: Sorry for the dark ending. Just for a brief backstory, Ash here was an adopted child from Vostok, a nation persecuted by all countries but eight, including Johto, the asylum he was trying to run to. Delia tried to protect her adopted child, but got arrested and accused for treason. Ash thought Misty would be the first to turn him to the police, but instead she, Dawn, and a a few others defended him. So now, he tried to run to Johto, where Vostoki peoples are protected and defended. Sadly, he didn't make it and got shot by Tohjo Falls. And that's it. This is my first time doing something like this, so please review with good intent, or else those non-constructive flamers will be nuked and sent to North Korea.
THE END
