YEARS LATER....
Tobias, morphed human, sat in the small, bare, sad-looking room. He rented it for the day- the day he thought would be his last.
In his dingy room, there was a clock and a gun. In his deranged mind, that gun was his only path to salvation in Rachel's arms. He wasn't patient, couldn't wait until he died. In his deranged mind, he had to speed it up a little. That was why he had the gun.
He was dying human for Rachel.
He slowly put the gun to his head and was about to pull the trigger when,
"Tobias. Don't." He saw Rachel, an angel now, take the gun from his hand and throw it out the window. The glass shattered.
"You have me in your heart, and you have the sky in reality. Now go. I will always be with you. Demorph, for, now, I understand that hawk may be the true you, or the embodiment of your soul and spirit. Demorph to hawk. Be free of grief. If you miss me, just remember : I love you," the solemn Rachel-angel said.
"W-will you fly with me?" Tobias asked fearfully, afraid of the answer.
The solemn mask disappeared and Rachel's gentle smile became her trademark grin. "What are you waiting for? Let's do it!" She said.
And Tobias demorphed, and out the broken window they flew, soaring on thermals, until Rachel had to go back. But she remained in Tobias' heart forever.
In thought-speak, he finished, he sang to Rachel part of the song he'd started years before
You're always right....
So you sailed away,
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring
What was it you wanted?
Could it be I'm haunted?
Then sincerely,
It's not so bad (any more),
He added the rest playfully
You're only the best I ever had...
Then she had to go back....but Tobias was at peace with his grief now.
He never cried for Rachel again.
