Hokmuto turned away from Spacegodzilla.
'It's over, my angel, it's- ...Femuto?'
He realised that one of the crystals that Spacegodzilla had created had impaled her chest when they fell to the floor. She was still breathing, but only just. Her wound was smothered in blood.
'Hokmuto?...I think... I think I may be dying...'
I approached her, as Hokmuto collapsed beside her.
'Femuto, please, I implore you, don't die! Please! No!' He desperately begged, as he gently caressed her head.
'There is nothing I can do...'
'No!' Hokmuto would repeat, unable to believe that this was actually happening.
Tears streamed out of his eyes. Femuto coughed up small flecks of blood as she wheezed.
'We have been together for many years... I can't let you go...' Hokmuto sobbed.
Femuto began to weep.
'Please, Hokmuto... look after our babies...' She whimpered, as she began to hyperventilate, trying to stay alive for her mate for just a little longer.
'I beg you, please don't die! I can't lose you!'
'Hokmuto... you have to know that things will be much better for me when I die... I am in so much pain...'
'Are you... are you suggesting that you want to be out of your misery...? That you want me to kill you...?' Hokmuto asked in horror.
'Yes.'
This began to remind me of the time I had to kill Junior. I could still remember the terrible feeling I had after that experience, and the look of pain in his eyes. Small rivulets of tears came streaming out of my eyes.
'I... I can't do it...'
'Please, Hokmuto...'
There was a short silence.
'Okay...'
Hokmuto placed his front limb onto his mates neck.
I had to look away, as this was all too familiar.
'I'll see you soon...' His mate cooed.
'And remember... I will always love you...'
Hokmuto lowered his head in sadness.
'I will always love you too.'
He quickly exerted force into Femuto's neck, snapping it instantly. A horrendously loud 'crack' echoed across the land.
Her breathing stopped.
'...Femuto?'
No reaction.
I've killed her. I've actually killed her. Hokmuto thought.
He began to sob hysterically, and hugged Femuto's limp body, nuzzling her.
This was so very similar to when I killed Junior. I had to leave, otherwise I would suffer a breakdown.
'I'm sorry this had to happen,' I said, crying.
Hokmuto slowly got up from Femuto's body. He remained silent.
'I really cannot do anything, which I regret to say. I must now search for Gigan, if that is okay...'
'Good. Please, leave my mate and I in peace... I won't be able to leave her for some time, I will only slow you down...'
Ugh, me and my tragic scenes... sorry, I just HAD to include this!
