He carried her through plains of nothingness through town, through his
memory and through his heart. Until finally he reached Alexandria. With a
heavy heart he ploughed the streets, letting the people know their loos was
his loss. The looked they cried and felt the pain he was going through.
The day the ceremony came, she lay there with the loving look still on her face, he daughter Topaz, was there by her mothers side. So perfectly she stood gazing down there counting any freckle that she could find, slowly her father, Zidane came by her side.
"It's time" The only words he had muttered since he told her he was "sorry" for letting her down, for not being there when his wife needed him, not to be by her side, as he had promised.
With a heavy heart Topaz closed the lid to Garnets coffin. Her coffin was most elegant, it was covered with gold doves that shone in the sky whenever the sun peeped from the sky, letting everyone know that life goes on. The doves were mounted on a white background to symbolise her love, her life and her passion for a new adventure.
Slowly Steiner, Beatrix, Doctor Tot, Freya and Zidane took her coffin with Zidane leading the way, holding his daughters hand. They lead her down the streets of Alexandria as her coffin passed her people they bowed their heads each letting off a red rose as she passed. Some roses gently attached themselves to the gold carvings of doves, making it look as though each one had found the rose and carried it for Garnet.
They made their way to the crest of the waterfall that stayed their always protecting, nourishing Alexandria. When they reached their destination Regent Cid his wife and Eiko made their way across, Cid embraced Zidane letting him know that he was not alone, as he too was suffering with the loss of Garnet. Her daughter slowly stood upon a glass pillar a read poem she'd created just for her mother
You taught me to love to share
To be myself to love myself
To trust within my boundaries
I wont forget
I wont leave my thoughts of you in my past
But I'll them with me in my present
So I will never forget you
Your power to help others
Is embellished within me
I shall uses it with my heart, my soul and my memory
I know it's time you rested
I know that you'll never forger me, as I'll never forget you
As someone once quoted
To be forgotten is worse that death.
She stood down and ripped the poem into tiny pieces and let the wind carry them away to where her mother was resting, watching and waiting to see her daughter again.
Zidane picked up his daughter and hugged her until it was his time to makes his speech. He spoke with a rough tone, as the power of his voiced had not been properly used sine he called out her name when the blow made her fall to the ground.
" Garnet, words can't express the loss I am feeling, by losing you I have lost a piece of my self and a piece of my heart, I shat forget what you made me feel like, I shan't forget the feeling when we made love together how happy we both made each other feel"
"I shall do you the honour of looking after the kingdom that you nourished from the young age it was out upon you, I shall look after our daughter, she carries the beauty and power of you!"
"Your people will also still love you and shan't forget what you done for them, you made them happy, you made the see light when they would only see the dark."
For them to return what you did for them each person will light a candle to make sure you see through any dark that you may encounter"
With that last word the sun set beyond the horizon with nothing but darkness surrounding Alexandria, then one tiny flicker lit up a part followed by another than another then another until finally, the candles illuminated Alexandria castle.
The service had ended people had gone to continue their mourning, others had retreated to the castle. Some had laid their memories to rest they knew she would want them to move on, but other only look at another side, the side of revenge. Zidane had heard the voice it'd been running over and over in his head. Never leaving always making the pain grow and grow.
"So what are we going to do, Vivi's not dead, his sickening body still walks Gaia, disgusting others when their eyes are laid upon his body?"
"Zidane" Beatrix's voice had changed since he had last heard it, it was harder, sounding as though she wanted revenge as well.
"It's no use I've sent all my men looking for him, all the find is the devastation that he left behind, and there's nothing that can be done"
"YOUR WRONG!" Zidane voice shattered the silence that followed from what Beatrix had last stated.
"I will find him, I will I can't let her down again I just can't" and with that's last word he collapsed in sobs, no one knew what to do but to leave him to deal with his grief as they flossed to door she last image they saw was him cradling the pillow that she had laid on, but a week ago today . . . . . .
