Ok so this is more into the story, just before the game. for the rest of these one-shots they generally follow Ellie. i also plan on uploading the third part as well right after this.
this part was actually based after the song, Too Much by all time low but its so much easier to put it with this one in order. :D
thanks, MegannElle for reviewing, im really really glad that you like the first one :D i hope you like this chapter and the second one just as much :D (Auron is my favourite as well for FFX, and possibly for all of FFs)
:D review! review! review!
Ellie sat and watched as the moon rose from the front of her house. It reminded her of him, always of him even when she couldn't look at it anymore she couldn't bring herself to turn away from it or him.
She had been alone for so long. Ten years had felt like the longest time of her life and she couldn't control it. She couldn't control the loneliness as she sat there in the dark listening for the silence. Maybe he would be back one day. Maybe.
She knew it wasn't her doing. She knew it wasn't her fault yet all the emotions seemed to be there. The way he had looked at her. Like he used to before her death.
The wind was blowing through the air making her hair messy but she couldn't bring herself to care. This was it. This was what loneliness felt like. She had known what it had felt like before but he had stopped it. This black feeling had gone away when they were together. Everything was so much easier then what it was now.
Her life was pointless and she knew it. She wasted everyday of her life sitting hoping for his return though not that anyone had realized it. She was losing her mind. Everything she saw was the essence of him. She needed him and he needed her but they were both too stubborn to admit it. She knew it.
Kilika was a small town. It was easy to live in, almost comforting. Though she missed the temple in bevelle from time to time it was no excuse. They had betrayed her and they betrayed their own teachings. She had to make her new home and that was here in Kilika. Even if it was without him.
Her eyes watered as she recalled a memory from the life before. The happiness they used to share. She could remember him smiling and even a laugh or two. She knew the reason this had happened to the both of them. It wasn't because they were both Sinful. No. It was because they had loved in a time of desperation. They had loved too much. It wasn't sinful but it was more then most. They had loved too much and Sin had wanted it. Sin knew and they knew. They had loved too much.
Looking back at that life she had to smile. She had smiled at him the day he had taught her how to use a blade. She had smiled shamefully when they had promised to be together forever. When they had sworn that one-day, in a world without sin they would be together. A tear slid down her cheek as she recalled those memories like they were part of some movie but it felt so real. It was real. They both knew it. Even if these memories felt like a dream she knew they were real.
Everything seemed pointless to her. Even re-fixing the broken homes that had been destroyed. She missed him but she couldn't say it. She missed him and with every moon that was raised she would smile if only for a short period of time. It reassured her that he was still there waiting for her. She hoped he was. She needed him and he needed her.
What would she do if she saw him again? They were no longer the same people they once were. She knew that the emptiness inside could never be fixed until the day Sin was gone. Until they could love again. Until she no longer had to feel the pain of this emptiness. Too much love was their downfall.
Everything in her life felt pointless. Everything she thought she knew she now called pointless. Her life was meaningless without him. Without love. Without the want to survive what would she live for? Nothing in her mind would compare to that past life. That life was the one she would never trade in.
Sin would be the destruction of her and the rest of Spira. She hoped for the day she would see the end of this cycle of death but she never would. The end of Sin meant the end of her. She never knew how much that had scared her until that life had passed. That one life had changed her perspective of her lives. Everything was too much for her.
She felt the sadness wash over her as she stared into the moon. She needed him but did he really need her? He had known when they had first met that they could never be together forever. She had known this yet still the loneliness filled her mind and soul. She needed the sun. She didn't want to see the stars anymore. She needed the clouds. She needed the people she used to love around her. She needed friends. Loneliness was a creature inside her that she hated with a passion but allowed her to feel something. Allowed her to remember how they loved too much.
Sin would be the end. She would end with Sin. Where did that leave him? Ellie couldn't decide where it would end or when but she knew it would. Too much time had passed by. Too much of her lives had been wasted emotionless. She refused to let the rest of these lives be the same. He had showed her that. She needed to change. She needed to feel and appreciate what was alive before one day she wouldn't be around anymore. She would never see a true life without sin. She would always remember the lives without him. They had loved too much
