Part seven:

A Farewell

***
Trowa looked out of the window in the room they shared. Prince Quatre was still lying on the bed, his eyes surveyed the kingdom beneath them. It had been twenty years since he last saw him and he prayed that he was ruling Langit now with Relena by his side. And perhaps he was happy. Perhaps they would meet again and he would tell him why he did what he did. Perhaps he would forgive him.

His eyes rested upon a figure beneath the tower's window staring up at him. Through his flittering hair and worn clothes he saw his violet eyes and the scars on his back. And Trowa knew. And he knew he was wrong. Perhaps in time he would forgive himself.

Duo looked up at him, smiled sadly and turned around disappearing into the dark forest.

He brought out the single white feather. And brought it to his nose, inhaling what Duo used to be. He kissed it lightly and let it fall out of the window. Never taking his eyes off the dancing sliver of white as it was devoured by the world beneath him.

notes: i originally intended for the fic to end here, but my cuz said i should make a happy ending for once so i did, I made one for trowa and heero, it's like choose your own ending, both can be found in my page. So all of those needing a little hug after reading all that angst can click on the link to my page and go read the endings i made for her. This is not some shameless ploy to get you to visit my site its just I don't feel right about posting the endings since I don't own them.

But for me this is the real ending.

This fic has garnered its share of good and bad reviews and I would like to apologize for my inexperience. If I had offended anyone that was not my intention, I am not a writer after all, just a kid with an idea
