This is it, the end of the line. Like I said, Death's the main focus on this. So, I hope you enjoy ending. And a few mushy stuff at the end too. :)
The group where relaxing in a Hot Spring because of their hard earned victory, Pyrrha smiled as she laid her back into the warm water, letting her muscles finally get some major rest. Jaune, though did not get the healing benefits that Pyrrha gets from it now that she is an angel, also enjoyed the hot water. Maybe him feel anew. One question was on his mind though, "Why gave you that bow Pyrrha?" Pyrrha looked at him, a bit puzzled. "I.." She started to say, "I don't know..." The two looked at each other, with Pyrrha thinking about who could have given it to her. That was when she remember what it was, a Bow of Death.

A couple where sitting in their home as the sound of a new born's cry could be heard. The happy mother was holding her child as the father smiled. "He's got your eyes," he said as his he rubbed her check drying a tear of joy off. She smiled a bit, "You've gone soft." She said as he hugged her. "Guess you have too." He retorted with a kiss on her cheek. Just then, there was knocking on the door. "Why don't you go check on that dear?" She stated giving him a rub on his beard, "I'll put the little one to bed." He smiled and nodded, heading to the door. Once he opened it a figure wearing black robes with a hood over his head was there. "Can I help you?" He asked the figure, only for the figure to smile a bit. "I kept my promise Magnus."
A few moments later, the figure was sitting with the couple at their dinner table, eating a nice wild boar that Gaol caught earlier in the day. "Well, by that logical you didn't keep your promise," Magnus stated with a bit of gruff in his voice, "So how did you come back?" Death rubbed his hair a bit, "Well... That's a bit of a funny story." He leaned back and looked up, "Well... It all started when I died... Again."

A small yell could be heard from the void, a hand came out of the darkness and pulled it self out. A scream came out as the flesh started to boil, and memories of two past lives filled its head. 'Wha-where am I?' It thought as it stood up fully, 'What's going on with my skin?' He walked around and saw two wings, dripping onto the ground. 'That looks so familiar...' Just then, a voice called to him, repeating Icarus. He followed the voice, the farther into this weird black world he went, the louder the voice became. Until, it stopped. He was standing alone, at a strange cliff. He over looked it, and saw all the souls stuck in this weird state, and a strange opening. "Hello Icarus." the voice said again behind him, "Why are you calling me that?" He turned and asked as he scratched his head, "My name's Pit... Not Icarus." He saw a female figure wearing a white hood and a black dress. She chuckled a bit at the comment, "The innocence. that is your Angel name, but your name is life was Icarus. Surely you must remember some of your past life." He closed his eyes and saw a man, making wings out of wax. "Remember son, don't fly to close to the sun... Less your wings melt." "I will daddy! I'll stay far away from it!" It then quickly changed to falling, "ICARUS! YOU FLEW TO CLOSE! HANG ON MY SON!" "DADDY HELP ME!" The sound of bones cracking filled his ears. He opened his eyes feeling the pain of the broken bones in his own body, "You had your death..." The woman stated, "I wish you would have a happy memory." She floated over to him and put her hand on his shoulder, as he looked at her face. "I want to know more...About Icarus... I mean... me? I mean.. Icarus! I mean!" She stopped him before his mind blew up and he died for a third time, "There is only one way to know who you are... Is to become death." Pit looked at her and smiled a bit, "Take Thanatos' job? Piece of cake! I'll do it!" She shook her head, "It's not that simple.. You'l hear every voice, know every pain, and understand fully what it means to be dead and the voice of the fallen." Pit thought about it, and he smiled, "If it means that someone else won't have to in the long run. I'll take it! I don't want anyone else to go through any sort of pain! I'll do it!" She looked at him, as if he was a fool. She then smiled, and remembered how she herself became it. "Do you really want to?" He nodded, "Yes madam." "Very well then." She slowly walked up to him, and gave him a kiss on his lips. His flesh started to fully boil away, his eyes turned into nothing more than red dots, his tunic turned black along with his hair, and his wings turned into bones. He fell to his knees as he felt everything, all the pain, all the lost dreams, all the sorrow, all of it filled his very being. He looked up and saw the hooded figure's human form, her skin was building just like his was, her hair was covering her right eye, and she frowned a bit whispering that she was sorry, as she was drug out into the void fully.
"And that's how I became death..." Pit stated looking at Magnus, "I at least know who I am." The gruff warrior looked at him, and apologized only to get a smile. "It's okay," he said, "As long as I can do some good, I will accept my fate. And hey, can't say I don't live on with my successor in the other room." Magnus quickly looked in the kitchen, "Pyrrha's not here." He stated, then he remembered what he named his son. "Very funny. You're lucky we liked the name so much." Pit laughed a bit, "and I thank you for it. I really do!" Gaol handed over some bread for the road, "Not to be rude, but I would like Magnus to help around the house a little." Pit nodded and smiled some more, "Of course. I'll see you in a while then?" The three heroes shared a quick hug, as Pit walked out of the home and looked into the sky. 'Lady Palutena,' He thought, 'I'm home.'
