Chapter VIII: The last night by your side

Several days passed since Kaoru's grandmother died, she was feeling better, however many strange thing started to happen in Wutai, the number of monsters increased, I helped to get rid of them, but there were earthquakes and other disasters.

The nightmares disappeared since I started feeling something for Kaoru...I was her support and she was mine...when the guilt came back she was always there to ease my pain.

However I was always scared that those disasters were caused by that evil and selfish witch that once possessed me, that evil spirit that corrupted my soul and was part of me even if I tried to deny it...She can return anytime...what if she does, what if she possesses me again? What if I hurt Kaoru, what if...?

"Thinking again, huh? What are you thinking this time?....mmmmmm let me think o yeah you're probably worrying about something....about your past....am I right?"

"Kinda.....but don't worry...I won't let anything happen to you...never...even if it costs me my life"

"Don't say such things...I-I love you....if something happens to you....I would probably die...you're all that I have in this world"

"I won't die...I promise..." we heard a roar, I knew that it meant I had to fight, Kaoru didn't like me to fight, she was always worrying about me, however I grabbed the Masamune and went to fight the monster.

This monster was strong, stronger than any other that I had fought, it had huge claws....I was careless...it almost kills me...fortunately I could kill it before he killed me...I fell on the ground bleeding...

"SEPHIROTH!! NO! Please!, don't die on me, don't die on me...."

I passed out, It was only a wound but I lost too much blood, when I woke up I saw a beautiful angel staring at me tending my wounds, I was better, the wound was almost closed , I just felt weak. It was past midnight when I woke up, Kaoru took care of me all that time.

"Are you alright?" She asked

"yes just a little dizzy"

"you fool! You had me worried sick! What do you think you're doing!"

she started crying as she hugged me with all her might, it was kinda painful because the wound was still fresh but I could understand her concern.

"you think that I'm happy about this, I love you! If something happens to you I...."

"I'm alright....please don't worry about me..."

"I just want to be with you, like this forever" she closed her eyes and fell asleep in my arms.

That night we slept together, it was the most wonderful night I ever had, I felt comfortable, and I was in peace, I didn't feel guilty, I didn't have any burden, I thought that I could forget about everything, and start a new life trying to atone for my sins.

But that same night the nightmares returned, this time it wasn't the same nightmare, this was even more terrifying; Jenova returned and destroyed everything, she tried to posses me again but Kaoru interfered and Jenova...

I woke up, and saw her, still sleeping next to me. I held her close and promised I would protect her at any cost.
