A/N: I have two endings. I liked both of them, so I put them both in. So, I have two columns. Release is a angsty sad ending. Rebirth is a angsty happy ending. Your choice. Or read them both! R&R!
Rebirth By Lasafara FettJust then, two figures appeared on the stairs. Pegasus, leaning heavily against Cecelia, was shirtless, revealing a rather bloody bandage across his chest. Cecelia's tear-stained cheeks were lit under the harsh lights of the hallway, but her eyes were happy, her lips upturned in a smile.
"What happened?" Yugi looked shocked. Pegasus shook his head. "We had a little misunderstanding, but it has been worked out."
With that, he kissed Cecelia softly on the cheek. "And you are all welcome to return any time you wish," Cecelia smiled softly, looking over the crowd.
Turning to Yugi, she nodded, "And thank you."
Yugi grinned. "Thank you. If you ever need any help, you know how to reach me."
Pegasus laughed, "Yes, yes I do. I'll be sure to call you, Yugi Motuh, if I ever need you."
Yugi grinned, and he and his friends walked out of the palace, free once more.

"Yeah? Well I convinced Pegasus to return their sou—" Joey was so caught up in the argument that he didn't notice that Yugi and Tea had stopped. He ran right into them.
"Hey, what's go—Oh."
There, on the bed, were the master and mistress of the house. If not for the blood spilling off the bed, it would have seemed that they were sleeping.
Pegasus, unable to bear the thought of losing Cecelia, had taken one of his knives and, crying tears of rejection, shoved it through his chest.
Shortly thereafter, Cecelia had found him. Taking the knife from his hands, she attempted to bind the wounds, but he was too far gone.
Crying, hysterical, she took up the knife herself…
They were buried together behind the palace. Yugi had conducted the ceremonies. The epitaph, inscribed on the stone, was that of a classic play:
Never was there such a tale of woe,
As that of Juliet, and her Romeo.
