Please note, this doesn't really happen in there series, it is one of those, what if, stories. They are not dead in my books! This is the last Sapphire/Dylin. Srry! I might in the future have more, but for now, this is it. My friend Mogo118 on DeviantArt wrote a two shot with them if you want to check it out. A special kind of love 3 part 1 and 2! The series is amazing! Now to the end... of the story.
He stared at the sunrise and was blinded by the sun. About a month ago, he would have been annoyed at the sun. But, he felt a part of him was connected to it now. He loved the sun, no he loved the sun's daughter, but she left him. A giant, just like the one that had taken her brother, oh how long ago, had gone on a rampage. They were in charge as older campers, 17, to go take care of it. The beast, was seriously insane, it picked them both up and dropped them hard on the ground. She pulled off her necklace and hit the button and it became a spiked discus. She launched it and it really hurt him. He had his shield which reflected his back. She attacked again, he hit Dylin and he flew against a wall. "Dylin!" She screamed and she was hit too. She went unconscious. He grabbed his sword and slashed the giant, but he was exhausted. The giant laughed and went over to Sapphire's limp body. He picked her up and threw her down. He lost it. He slashed so hard by the time he turned to gold dust his hand was bloody from gripping the sword so hard. He ran up to her limp body and shook her. "Sapph, Sapph wake up!" Just then a moon beam hit the ground and formed into a beautiful woman with night black hair and navy blue eyes. "Mom." He said under his breath. "Hello Dylin, I cannot interfere with Hades collection, but I can save her. Put her into a forever sleep. She will not die." "Don't! You can't bear it." Said a raggedy voice behind him. He turned and saw Sapphire. He ran over to her. "I'm dying, don't torture yourself." "Every day will be torture without you!" "I love... you." She said closing her eyes. He fell to his knees crying. His worst nightmare was arising. Forever sleep. And she had just gotten over her fears, now he had to live with it. "Sapph, I love you too." "Dylin, come lets go back to camp. We can alert Chiron and I can handle my brother. Last time he grieved a favored child, we had 3 days without day. That was ancient times though." "Let the mortals think as they will. I don't care anymore. She is dead. The Bright twins are now both dead. I couldn't save either one." From stress, sadness, or exhaustion, Dylin collapsed. He awoke in his bed. "Sapphire!" he said. He looked over at his brother. He shook his head no. Dylin threw the covers over his head and laid in his bed. He refused to eat. Finally, Piper of Aphrodite came in. "Dylin Moon, Eat, please. Do not starve yourself." She said in her charm spoken voice. She handed him a plate and he ate. She gave a weak smile and left. A few days later, Sunny, Sapphire's sister came into his cabin. "Sapphire's funeral is starting soon. I thought I should see if you were coming." "Thanks Sunny, yeah, I'm coming." He changed into some darker clothes. He had plenty, and walked outside. They were doing the ceremony a night because Helios wanted to attend. He loved all his children, but Helios and Sapphire had a special bond. He really cared about her, almost as much as Dylin did. The Pyre had a blanket of suns on it. Chiron said a few words in Greek and ignited the flame. Dylin couldn't watch. He turned away. He knew Sapphire would do everything in her power to not cry and show pain. But he wasn't Sapphire. He attempted to go into the flow of the schedule, but he abandoned it quickly. He ended up sitting on the beach under the stars until they disappeared in the morning light. Peresus and Cassiopeia disappeared in the sun's rays. He looked at the sun. "Why you Sapphire? Why couldn't it be me?" He did this every day. Stared at the sun as it rose and set. Then the day came. They day he sat under the stars with her to face her fears of the dark. He didn't go out. He didn't wave hi to his mom, or absorb the moons beams. He discovered he glowed in the moonlight. He absorbed the light. He went to sleep. His face wet with salty tears. He trained himself to wake up at 5 am every morning to see the sun rise. He watched the sun rise and he could have sworn he saw the sun wink. "Sapphire, I love you." Why were the gods punishing him? Taking the one who he loved.
Yes, this isn't a songfic, I didn't really have a good song. This isn't the end of this couple, this is not a real story. I will write more soon!
