They all reached Tetana about the same moment. Her hair was in tangles, and her breathing was raged. Teresa pulled Tetana into her lap and tried to sooth her.
Usagi knelt down by them and asked, "Why'd you do that?"
Tetana turned her head to usagi and whispered, "Not only is is... my duty to protect you.. but to protect... this planet.... And I couldn't let... you do it by... yourself..."
Usagi nodded her head with tears in her eyes. Tetana turned to Buffy, "It was an honor being able.... to fight with you... we won, right?"
"yeah we did, " Tetana smiled and looked toward Teresa.
"Teresa you know that I... love you, right?"
"Of course I do."
Tetana raised a hand to Teresa's cheek - who covered it with her own - and looked her in the eyes, "I will be.. watching... You wont be.. Alone, " Tetana's eyes closed and her hand fell from Teresa's grasp.
"NO! Tetana wake up. Please, sweety. Wake up please. Don't leave leave me! Tetana!" and for the first time in 13 years Teresa sobbed., "Tetana please..come back."
Kennedy gave Willow a push towards Teresa who was now rocking Tetana's limp figure. Willow gathered Teresa into her arms and motioned for everyone else to leave.
"It'll be alright, Teresa."
"No it wont. Tetana is, was, the only person I've ever loved. The only person who ever understood me. And now she's... she's.. she's gone!"
"I understand how you feel, but you will survive."
"We were ment to be together forever."
"How do you know that?" Willow asked, curious.
"We were soulmates."
They lapsed into silence and watched everyone get ready to leave sunnydale, or rather the big crater that was Sunnydale.
