Green Arrows P.O.V

Mean, I really pitied the guy. First his son and now, less than a week later, the closes thing he's ever had to a daughter.

As I stood there at the funeral. Superheroes young and old, had gathered to say their final goodbyes to her.

Just like they had a few days ago to him.

At a corner, Raven's closest friends, Argent, Jinx and Ravager, were crying their tears out.

Can't blame them, they knew Raven better than anyone.

Except for maybe...

The heroes who had gathered bowed their heads down in respect for their fallen ally.

Up on top of a large table laid a girl, her eyes closed, her face pale.

They had chosen to dress her in her hero outfit, since not many people were close to her aside from her hero life.

There she laid, still beautiful as ever, flowers embroided in her hair and her engagement ring, still on her lifeless fingers.

They had patched up the wound from the dagger, but if one looked close enough, they could still see where her life had ended.

No, no one blamed him. Of course not. We didn't know the whole story.

But he didn't show up today. Kind of ironic since this girl was his sister.

A rain storm came. I felt the rain pour down.

I smirked, Raven used to have these, special skills where the weather followed her mood. For the past few days, it had been unbearably hot a few minutes and pouring rain the next.

It felt strange though, I could still feel as if she was with us. As if the storm clouds were her making.

It was as if she knew the mood and changed the weather to make it this way.

I looked up to the storm clouds and nearly died of fright.

Up there, sitting on a cloud was a girl whom I could recognized anywhere. She was sitting with a boy and they were hugging kissing each other continuously.

But... It can't be.

I craned my head to get a closer view.

She cuddled up close to him and closed her eyes, leaning her head onto his chest.

In response, the boy pulled her in closer and started stroking her, saying words that I couldn't hear from here but it appeared that he was comforting her.

I looked towards where she laid, no, she was still there. Her body still lifeless and not showing any signs of movement.

I checked the newly dug grave next to hers and saw absolutely no sign of movement.

I looked up again and saw the same figure, but it can't be.

She's dead.

He's dead.

They were both looking at us now, both smiling.

The boy had the girl crushed into her chest and she was eagerly cuddling him.

Both wore faces of content.

I was still disbelieving all that I had seen until I saw the rings on their fingers.

I stopped trying to deny the inevitable and started staring in awe.

Both hands were locked together, as if by some magical force.

They couldn't be separated.

Their bodies emitted a glowing light.

Then I realised. This was it.

It was done.

Their lives were sealed.

They were one now.

They were together.

The two lovers, separated by death, had been reunited and now that they had surpassed death.

There was nothing keeping them from being together for eternity.

I just wished they could see this. That he could see this.

The boy who had killed one lover had also eased the pain of his partner.

His partner, who would have had to wait centuries before joining him.

No, he had shorten her pain, her suffering and had ended her tears once and for all.

By killing her, he had allowed them to conquer the one and only thing that had stood in the way of their eternal love.

Death.

And now, they will be together. Their love will go on and on for the centuries and centuries to come. Long after the world has had its final battle, the sun, it's final flame and the universe, it's final star.

No, that will go long after that and beyond because now that they're together, who knows what their love will bring to the world.

He was still holding her in his arms and she was cuddled on his chest. Both looked happier than I've ever seen them before.

They were still in the clothes which they were buried with but they were no longer preparing for the next battle.

His worries that she will be caught unprepared.

Her worries for his safety and vulnerability.

But that was all over, they no longer had to worry for each other.

No longer begging that the battle wouldn't be his last.

No longer begging that the battle wouldn't be the end of her.

No, the worries were all over.

The boy looked down and whispered something into her ear which made her giggle.

She gave him a peck on the cheek.

Suddenly, she looked down to me. She saw the funeral and gave me a wink.

With a swift wave of her hand, the storm clouds disappeared.

The rain ceased and bright orange clouds appeared to take their place.

I looked up and with a thumbs up, she nodded.

"Strange weather we're having." Superman said.

I nodded and smiled up.

She gave me a big grin, the biggest I've ever seen from her.

He smiled up at her lovingly before they both nodded down to the funeral.

He grinned

She giggled.

They both put their fingers up to their eyes and pointed down towards to us.

They had given me a sign.

A sign that showed that they'll be watching us.

That when we have need of them again.

We only needed to call.

I nodded knowingly and with a wave, a cloud came and blocked them while they were entering into a very passionate kiss.

When the cloud moved away, they were nowhere to be seen.

I waved them goodbye and realised that a few others were waving too.

It wasn't just me.

The funeral continued and once it was over, Batman walked over to me.

"You saw." He said.

"Yes."

"They're together."

"They are."

"They're happy."

"They should be. They've gotten over the one barrier that was keeping them apart."

Batman nodded.

"Their love..." Batman said.

"Will last for eternity." I ended.

As we walked away from the graveyard I looked happily into the sky above.

Their story was tragic.

Their killer, someone who was close to them.

And yet, with all being said.

It was their killer that should be thanked.

For he had ended their fears.

Their suffering and their pain.

Now, they are together.

And they will be together.

Forever.
