(not shounen ai either)

Death

I can feel his hand holding mine. He's the massacre man, the destroyer of cities. I refuse to believe that he is sorry that I die.

But he clearly is. With the last of my vision I can see his anguished face.

Why do I have to spend my last seconds on earth wondering if I was lied to? If I gave up a human body to avenge myself on an innocent man? He would cry for me, as certain others never have.

I remember her, and her dead eyes, as my own are finally extinguished.

Note: Based on the death scene of Hoppered the Gauntlet in the manga.
