Thanks to all my reviewers for this story, I love you all and you inspired me to keep writing. This is the last chapter for this story, and yes there will be a sequel. I'm not going to write another ending, though. (Because there's as sequel and that would be hard…) So yes, this ending might disappoint many of you, and I hope that you keep reading. If you have any ideas/themes you might want to use for the sequel, just tell me and I might use them! By the way, I will explain everything I leave you with in this chapter., So you won't be too much disappointed. Thanks all again, and please review!
Yuffie's P.O.V.
Leon opened what was left of the door, and it lead us into a place with endless flowers. It reminded me of the church in Midgar, and of Aeris. I almost wish she'd have come here now. I didn't know if there'd be a swarm of Heartless, or if Leon'd go crazy and start attacking me with his Gunblade. Nor do I know any of the fiends here.
And now, I'm going with the 'Leon'd go crazy' theory. He was looking around, and looked like he might pass out. I don't know CPR either. And what if he was gonna die? Ahh! Then I'd die too!
"Squall, where are we? On a flower planet or something?" I asked him. I noticed that when I steeped on a flower, it didn't break. Very… odd.
"No." he darted off forward. I nodded my head, and went after him, running as fast as my overly-tiny legs could carry me. I was slower then Squall when he ran at full pace, though.
"Wait up!" I yelled after him, but he ignored me. Soon he was out of view, and I didn't even have flowers to have a path. Now what? I assumed that he was going in the same direction, so I just kept running, taking short breaks now and then to catch my breath.
About four hours later, I was still running through the flower field. Tears were threatening to fall out of my eyes, I had no idea where I was Squall is ignoring me, I'll probably never see Vinnie again, and what if Squall was dead? What if I was going to die in a flower field for Leviathan's Sake? Then that would be a complete dramatic move! Not to mention so un-Yuffieness. But my life was already a soap opera. Ugh… this is so cliché.
"Squall! Squall Leonhart!" I called with a few last breaths before I fell atop the flowers. My muscles were sore all over. I can't move. I want to sleep. Should I sleep? What if I die? Should I say my prayers now? Should I keep going? Should I go back to the ship? Should I sit here in my own thoughts?
I rolled over, and faced the blue sky. I saw a white feather falling gracefully to me, and I caught it. I held it tight. Perhaps an angel is passing her wings onto me. Is it my time? No. I still have all my life to live! What about Vincent? Will he miss me? Will he come to my pathetic funeral?
Things started to blur. Why was this happening to quickly? Isn't it usually a day after this starts happening?
I found myself drifting on and off into consciousness. I think I was asleep or something when I felt a dog lick my face. A dog? In a flower field? What was going on? Was I hallucinating? Thoughts were going around in my head when I felt myself being picked up bridal style. The I drifted into a deep slumber…
I was sleeping peacefully until I felt cold water splashing atop my mouth.
I coughed, and my lungs burned. Warm liquid poured down my mouth slowly. I coughed more and more, and I felt someone feel my head, and speak something I paid no attention to. I was tired. Couldn't they see that? I want to sleep, not go train or anything. Sleep! I didn't feel good. I felt a fever, and my lungs were burning. It was getting harder to breathe with each breath I took, and I felt myself being frustrated each time I tried to inhale.
I slowly opened my eyes to see what was going on. Leon was standing over me with another woman. Who was she? I don't recognize here?
The light was turned on, and I closed my eyes. It hurt. The light hurt so much…
"Stop!" I mumbled, trying my best to yell. The best that came out was a small whimper, that I'm sure went unheard because of all the noise. Why won't they shut their mouths? It's hurting my ears. I couldn't hear what they were saying. I couldn't hear anything, the same liquid was now coming out of my ears as well as my nose.
Then they placed a thin white blanket on my body. Why were they shoving something so heavy atop me? Why won't they just stop? Leave me alone. I screams din my head. But I knew it was pointless.
The I felt someone swallow me up. And I could hear them screaming my name clearly, "Yuffie, don't leave us!"
I looked around me, and I couldn't see where I was. I had no memory of what had happened? I was completely lost. Then I saw Vincent standing in front of me. He had black feathery angel wings on his back, and his hair was flying freely in the light breeze.
"Vinnie," I called out to him. I reached out for him, but my hand went through him, and around where I touch turned into a light green thing.
"It's not your time yet, Yuffie. You can still go back."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean… I'm not real, Yuffie. I haven't been real. I sacrificed myself for you, Cloud, and Aerith. We all did."
"What?"
"When you die, you can choose- be a guardian, or to live peacefully in your own made-up paradise. I chose to be a guardian- pacifically yours. When I noticed that everything was going downhill, I asked Zeus to let me come back to you. Only for a little while. The help you.
"We all decided to come. To help you get through everything before you committed suicide. We owed you that much."
"What do you mean, though?" I began to cry.
"I mean… you don't deserve to be depressed, Yuffie. Now is not your time. We will meet again… I promise. Go back to them. Now's your chance!"
"Yuffie…"
"Come back!"
"… I love you."
I looked back a Vincent. Even though he wasn't facing me, I know that he wasn't lying.
"Do you promise?"
"…I promise!" I yelled, and ran in the other direction. I ran as fast as I could. I closed my eyes as horrors looked upon me. The heartless staring at me… and then everything stopped. I was back.
Slowly my eyes opened, and I came to face Leon, Cloud, Aerith, Riku, Sora, Kairi, and some other people I didn't know. I couldn't breathe on my own and everything still hurt. But I knew I'd get over this eventually. I glanced that the thingy that keeps the heartbeats, and I noticed that now it was going up and down, but before it was a straight line. A small smile formed on my lips, and I glanced at Leon. I closed my eyes, and fell into a restful sleep, knowing everything was going to be alright…
-The End-
