Final Chapter.

Epilouge

Fields of Elysium

Though the horror and pain still lingers, the red glow of her eyes finally dims. Rage and sadness no longer entrap us, and we can finally rest. I had missed the comfort of my bed. With the length of our mini-adventure, I feel as if I had been seperated from it for years, decades even. I had no trouble immediately walking in through the door and passing out. My lover was happy to see me home, finding the time to give me a light peck before sleep attracted me. If he had done all the things Dusk and I had, he would be completely drained as well. But alas, our day was complete, and our rest was well deserved.

The little wolf that had began this whole adventure rested comfortably on our living room couch. It was late, so we had no time to travel. We had no idea where she would be off to in the morning, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't miss her to some degree.

A gentle breeze blowing in through our window, the shimmering light of the full moon above illuminating the room with a blue hue, a sense of accomplishment. Yeah, everything was perfect...comparable to the fields of Elysium...all...was calm...

...at least in our house. But in others, rage was stirring...

------------------

"You little bitch. I thought you were one of the nicest little girls I had ever met, and you betray me. We may have only known each other for a short time, but now I say that I will loathe you for the rest of my days."

"Officer Vanilla. Your badge."

The rabbit looked down at the badge in her paw, accompanying the shiny new gun strapped to her hip, "Thank you sir." with a salute, she turned and walked out of the room.

"Don't think I won't find you wolf. What you did was unforgiveable. I may have become what I loathe as much as you, a puppet for the military...but..." she gripped the gun on her hip so tight, she nearly bled, "This is for Cream. You've scarred her for life."

Vanilla loaded a clip into the gun, "Now is my time to return the favor..."

---------------------

I've felt hate rise up in me...

But now, outside walls, I'm free...

I wander out where you can't see...

Inside my shell I wait and bleed...

I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time...

everything, to me, is blasphemy...

My eyes are red and glowing, the hair is standing straight up...

this is not the way I picture me...

I can't control myself, how the hell did I get here?

Something about this is so very wrong...

I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this...

Is it a dream or a memory?

Don't leave me hanging because you know what I'm feeling...

I'll go crazy, I'll go crazy.

And if I asked you, would you stop me from falling?

Would you save me? Would you save me?

Suffering insane...

All I can see now is pain...

Tiger in chains...

Please God, save me...

Rouge...would you save me?

--Dusk Alucard.

Comparable to the fields of Elysium? No. Flames owned by Hades would come swiftly...

Oh yes, there will be blood...

DARKEST AFTER DUSK

THE END.

(Sorry to end things on a cliffhanger, but since I'm getting slow with updates, and weighed down my my humor fics, I felt the need to wrap this up. If anyone is interested, I will continue. Please review, I hope you enjoyed it. If a sequel is to be made, look out for the title, "Perfect Darkness". Much love to all who read this and reviewed!)
