"High Dive from Heaven"
a fanfic by Jacob "Robertoa" Corley
Chapter 6: Truth
He pulled the trigger and a shot echoed through the ship, followed by the thud of a body on the metal floor. Before Stitch lay the body of the small girl he once thought he loved, lying in a pool of blood flowing from the gaping holes in her head.
Angel still stood before him. Lifting her head, she quietly spoke. "Thank you, Stitch. I knew you would make the right choice."
Stitch stepped over Lilo's body and hugged Angel. She was as soft and warm as he remembered. He dug his sharp claws into her soft flesh and pulled three large gashes on either side of her spine. She winced in pain, and her back arched, but she was okay. With sad and confused eyes, she asked, "What did you do that for?"
Stitch smiled. "Wings… in heaven."
Angel smiled and began to cry. She grasped him and did the same. Six streams of swampy green blood flowed freely from Stitch's back. He cried out in pain, but Angel held him. "I'll never hurt you, booji bu." Immediately, the physical pain failed to discomfort Stitch. He felt the pain, the open wounds on his back, the blood congealing around Angel's claws, which were still lodged under his skin, but he knew that it was not bad: it was Angel's love. He smiled, knowing he would be okay.
"I love you... Angel." Stitch closed his eyes and held her tightly.
The two remained like that for what seemed like an eternity: standing in a pool of Lilo's blood, their own green blood and tears flowing freely down their bodies. Neither one cared, both were at peace.
Angel had succeeded; the last hurdle had been cleared. After releasing each other, they both stepped into the elevator and rode to the main level, ready to face the new life they had made for themselves.
"Aaagh!!" Lilo quickly sat up in bed in a cold sweat, hyperventilating. She looked up at Stitch lying in his bed. He had cried himself to sleep after seeing Angel taken away from him. Lilo glared and frowned at him for a moment, then got out of bed.
She walked to her desk and pulled out the log she had made for all of the experiments. Turning to 624's page, she analyzed what she had already written. The boxes labeled "Name" and "Primary Function" had been filled in earlier that day, but "One True Place" was still blank.
Lilo grabbed a red pen and, in the box, scrawled "back in hell, where she came from!!"

Yeah, that's it. Hopefully, you're not too terribly freaked out (otherwise, you would've stopped reading a while ago, I guess...) If you didn't already know, this is my first fanfic (oO big surprise, huh?). I've always thought "Fanfic - the lowliest form of nerdy obsession," but writing this really has been fun. I hope you enjoyed reading it, and you didn't just jump to the end to see what happened . As usual, reviews, suggestions, ideas for more, etc. are welcomed and appreciated... Okay, that's all. You can go away now... really, you can, there's nothing else... yet.
