****************************************************************************
******
Sheik: reaches her hand down near Panther's waist and picks up the sword lying on the ground Now I will end this with the sword that you slayed me with!a noticable rage is seen within her
Kuja: Make him suffer a little bit more...
Sheik: Shut up! This is my vengence, not yours!
Kuja: floats in the sky with a shocked look on his face Very well canary.
Sheik: stares at Panther long and hard, watching him pant and bleed
Panther: Is this......what you've always wanted?....You're alive now.....why kill me?...his eyes slowly begin to close as everything begins to go dark
Sheik: is silent for a few moments
When Panther forces his eyes open, he sees Sheik above him holding the sword above his chest, aimed for his heart. Panther switches his glance from the deadly sword to Sheik's face, which has changed to a raged sadness. A tear begins to form in the corner of her eye, welling slowly.
Panther: loses his ability to speak as his eyes close once again. A small, warm spot is felt on his chest and it slowly soaks into his shirt. Sheik's tear had fallen on him and he could feel the live warmth against his skin
Sheik: sobs and pants at the same time and raises the sword high above Panther's heart, aiming it preciselyshe whispers ever so softly to herself, but Panther overhears her I'm sorry
Panther: a sudden painful sting vibrates through his entire body, and a slicing, breaking, and crushing of his own bones is heard. With his eyes still closed, his whole body begins to go numb and dull. He could feel his own heart giving it's final thump in his chest and could feel Sheik pull out the sword and collapse on the ground.
An unexplainable feeling goes through Panther as he sees replays of his life. Of things he didn't remember and things he never knew. Of images he tried to forget and images he would always remember. It suddenly stopped on one image in particular, and a movie seemed to play in his head. He saw himself holding Sheik's dying body in his arms, her hand on his face. She's saying something to him and the words slowly begin to come to him, but he couldn't make it through
In Sheik's eye, she saw Panther's body begin to jump and move about like he was under going shock, in which he was. She felt so tired and weak, so she lied on the ground next to Panther and lied her hand on his head and she seemed to be sucked into a movie. She saw rain falling and lightning flashing, when an image of Panther was seen. He was running, frantically, mud splattered on his face. He was looking ahead so she turned in the direction he was looking and a shock came over her at the image.
It was her, her own body in the air, floating. When another strike of lightning she saw the reason, it was him, Kuja. His sword was jammed deeply into her stomach. She noticed the smile spread across his face. Suddenly, time fast forward and she was looking down at herself, dying, her wound gushing freely. She heard herself and made out the words that Panther could not," I'm....sorr-".
Her face suddenly burns and she is thrown back a bit, as if someone hit her in the face. She opens her eyes and sees Kuja's white face above her
Sheik: You...stands up slowly You made me kill him.
Kuja: Isn't that what you wanted? Your revenge?
Sheik: tears burn her cheeks as she stares at Kuja, she finally notices the truth. It was not Panther who killed her, but the man in front of her You knew it wasn't him! YOU USED ME!blows Kuja back and watches him fall to the ground
Kuja: begins to laugh crazily, his eyes wide YES YES! IT WAS ME! And it took you that long to figure it out? Hahahahahahahahahaha......fool. I knew and you fell for it all, every single lie.
Sheik: How could you? How could you do this to me!?
Kuja: We're in the mortal world too, so there's no way to bring him back. No mercy for the weak. Now you know. Yes, it was I that killed you.a trickle of blood gently slopes down his neck and he looks himself
Sheik: You're right. No mercy for the weak.Kuja's face goes blank and his head falls completely off his body rolling next to her feet, blood gushing everywhere.
Sheik feels as if she could throw up, and she does. She sheathes the sword in a hole on her dress on her back and she begins to slump forward slowly, blankly walking nowhere, braindead and weak.
****a few hours later
Sheik is seen on the beach lying on the sand, the waves washing over her. She's awake but can't move, so she thinks to herself
Sheik: [ What has happened? I'm so confused now. I can't remember anyhting. What have I done to Panther? How do I know him? Why was he crying over me? Why am I being used? I only wish I could be dead again.....] **************************************************************************** ****** .........Incredibly short. Yes it is true, Panther IS dead. Not what you expected, huh? "Since when does the main character die?" ...since now. Everyone is dying, and Sheik seems to be alone on a planet she doesn't remember. Will she remember anything? Has it come now that, suddenly she is the one that wishes she could revive Panther? Is what Kuja said true? Since this is the mortal world, is there any way to revive Panther? So many questions, and secrets unanswered. This is the final chapter, but don't hurt yourself..stay tuned for the next exciting second half to this story(yes there's going to be a series of stories) Through the Eyes of the Dead.
