Okay and here's the final chapter thanks so much guys! Hope you guys read my next story as well.
Chapter 46: Goodbye and Welcome New future
The world of Filgaia felt a bit more peaceful now.
Would there be no more wars now…on these lands?
"Sara? Are you about done?" Jet voice asked. "Yeah, I'll be out in a minute!" I yelled back to him.
But even so. Even in a restroom. They had them up.
Wanted posted.
They are everywhere you look. Everywhere you go.
And I can't help but blame myself when I see them.
It had a picture of the four of them on it.
A reward of 221,500 gella for them.
It said on the Poster…
The Drifters are suspected of murdering the Order leader, and assaulting the Order members. Minor injuries: many. Serious injured: None. As Key suspects to the Crime, their whereabouts are still unknown…
It's my entire fault this happened. If...If I haven't been around…none of this would have happened to them.
But because of me…they will have to live life on the run.
How can I apology to them? I wondered as I left the restroom.
"About time…what took you so long?" The silver hair boy asked me. "I…I'm sorry." I quickly told him. "Sorry? For what?" Jet asked. "It just I been…" I started to say. "Are you not feeling well again?" Jet asked sounding worried.
"No, it's not that. It's not that at all." I plainly told him. "…Then stop worrying. You think far too much. It's not good for you. Especially because of your condition…" Jet told me as he took my hand. "…I-I know that…" I quickly told him. "But you don't have to watch over me all of the time. I know I'm weaker now…but I can still take care of myself." I told him.
Jet gave me a look before saying a word. "Maybe…I like looking after you." He told me. I felt my face quickly heat up. "…why did you have to go and say that?" I asked feeling annoyed with him. "Because I wanted to see your reaction…" Jet said with a grin.
I've been trying to tell you something…
"I hate you so much sometimes…" I told him. "Yeah…I know." Jet said still grinning. "If you know then why are you still grinning?" I asked. "I don't know." He plainly said.
But you never understand…
Soon we stopped before a train. "Is this the one we are taking?" I asked. "Yeah, Clive said the one on C3 and this would be it." Jet told me. "We should hurry in then Virginia and the others are waiting…" I quickly said. "Yeah…" Jet said as he pulled the brown robe over his head. "You look foolish wearing that." I told him.
"I feel foolish. But I'm sure gallows looks like a boat with his on." Jet quickly said. "Yeah, I'm sure he does…" I said as we both started to laugh.
I feel like we've been going around in circles…
We then got onto the train. We found Virginia and the others waiting inside. "Ah, there they are." Virginia quickly said. "We're starting to worry…" Clive told us. "Sorry about that…" I whispered to them. "I'm sure they just lost track of time making out." Gallows added in. Jet quickly kicked gallows in the face. "…Are you going to take that back now?" Jet asked him. "Y-yes…" Gallows said under his shoe.
You look at me like I've become a stranger on the Street…
I slowly shook my head a bit as I watched the two of them.
Why did I feel so out of place around them now?
"Sara did you make the seal paper?" Clive asked me. "What? Yeah, here it is." I said as I handed it over to him. "Thank you…but still it's pretty sad we need this not to be found. " Clive said with a sigh. "…" I quickly looked away from him.
I know they don't blame me. But I can't but blame myself.
It's my entire fault…that things came to this.
"…I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that Sara." Clive apologized to me. "n-no it's alright…" I quickly said.
A skeleton that's hiding in your closet…
"Stop that now!" Virginia quickly said pointing toward me. "Stop what?" I asked. "Stop blaming yourself! None…no, nothing that happened was your fault! And we don't blame you! So stop being so hard on yourself!" Virginia yelled. "V-Virginia…" I whispered.
Jet gave me a worried look as I quickly looked toward the floor.
I see you next to me…
"…I know it isn't my fault…but if I haven't been there…I wonder if any of this would have happened. Maybe…Even…" I started to say. "Well…she has a point…" Gallows quickly said. "GALLOWS!" Virginia and Jet both yelled at the same time. "What? I mean look at it from her point of view! Anyone in her shoes would feel the way she does." Gallows pointed out.
"…!" Jet and Virginia opened their mouth but couldn't get a word to come out.
But still you feel so far away…
"She cannot help but blame herself. Even if it was truly Siegfried's and Beatrice's doing. They still used the power that was inside of her. But still…" Clive started to say. I slowly looked up toward him. "Do not be too hard on yourself. Your health isn't good to start with…if you push yourself to much you may…" Clive started to say. "I know…but thank you…" I whispered to him. Clive lightly nodded to me.
Where did we go wrong?
"We should get to are car now…I just have to put this piece of paper on the door inside the car right?" Clive asked. "Yes, the door then cannot be seen from outside. Pretty much hiding us all together." I told him. "Understood…well then should we go leader?" Clive asked her. "…Y-Yeah…" Virginia whispered as she led the way with Clive and Gallows following slowly behind her.
Where did we go wrong?
Thank you…Clive for your kind words…but for now I can't stop blaming myself.
I-I just can't.
I heard footsteps by me. I slowly looked to my right to find Jet stand there staring toward me. And I stared back at him.
I guess this is a part where…
You look at me and say goodbye…
I slowly started to open my mouth but he spoke up first. "Idiot." Was the only thing he said. "What?" I asked. "Stop doing that!" He yelled grabbing my shoulders and quickly shook me. "I hate it…I hate that your blaming yourself! When I am at fault here!" Jet told me as he rested his head on my right shoulder. "…what? What are you saying?" I asked him. "None of this would have happened to you…If I haven't fallen at protecting you. If I had just protected you from those damn demons…then you wouldn't be…" Jet started to say.
Don't…
Don't let me go…
"Jet…none of this is your fault." I told him. "Oh? It isn't? But it's yours?" He asked me. "I…" I couldn't say anything. "…The demons maybe gone. But…I still hold true to my words. I-I will not let you die…" Jet whispered to me.
It's not the end…
"Jet…" I whispered to him. "I mean it…I-I will save you somehow…" He told me.
He has done so much for me. He's my partner…He's my best friend. And he's also the person…I…No…I couldn't even say that to myself. I just couldn't.
Girl you know…
It's not so bad…
I didn't know what to say to him. I had made more trouble for him. No not just him…but also for Virginia, Clive and Gallows.
I'm not strong at all. I'm a weak person.
It's not the end…
I looked at the silver hair boy before me. The boy who had changed so much in so little time.
He grew in more ways than one. He wasn't as stubborn as he had been when I first met him. He wasn't as cold anymore too. He had really changed.
I've been around the world and I have seen so many things…
Jet quickly picked his head off my shoulder; then he slowly stepped back from me a bit. His face was deep red. Maybe…he was unsure of what he had done.
"I…uh…" He quickly coughed. "w-we should get to the train car." He quickly told me. "…yeah." I whispered to him.
"Jet…wait a second…" I told him as he started to walk. "What is it?" He asked looking back toward me. "I…I…it's just…" I could say it.
I can even tell you where I'm going…
"…?" He gave me a confused look. "…" I sighed to myself. I couldn't tell him. Even if it was, the right thing to do.
But no matter where I'm heading and no matter what I do…
"I…nevermind…" I quickly said. Before I knew it I felt Jet take a hold of my right hand. "…?" I quickly looked up at him. "Whatever it is you can tell me…when you're ready right?" he asked me. "…yeah." I quickly said hiding the letter behind my back.
Something keeps me coming back to you…
I couldn't give the letter to him even. Why was I so scared to do this?
I'm a chicken. I can't even do something so little.
Soon we started are way down the hallway.
I see you next to me…
But soon we stop by a wall. "They are in here…" I told Jet as he let go of my hand. "I'm glad…you can tell where the seal is. Because I can't…But I guess this is your field." Jet said. "…I guess…" I whispered to him as I slowly opened the door.
The two of us quickly entered and closed the door quickly behind us.
But still you feel so far away…
"There they are." Clive said as we entered. "Looks like the seal's working without any problems…" I said. "Yeah it is. It's a big help." Virginia told me. I nodded to her as I sat down beside the window and Jet sat down beside me.
"Well it's good to know we can travel by train safely without being found." Virginia quickly said. "Indeed it is. Horses cannot take us everywhere." Clive pointed out. I started to stare out the window. I was starting to get sleepy. Was it because I used some energy to make that seal?
Where did we go wrong?
"Sara, are you alright?" I heard Virginia ask. "Yeah…I'm just sleepy." I told her. "Well…we haven't had time to really rest lately…" Gallows pointed out. "True…with everything that happened I'm surprised we aren't all runned down." Clive added in.
I guess this is a part where you look at me and say Goodbye…
"I'll just rest a bit…and I'll be fine." I told Virginia. I felt my eyes slowly close. "Hey…Jet?" I heard gallows ask. "What?" Jet asked sounding annoyed. "Want to switch seats?" Gallows asked. "No." Jet growled.
Don't…
Don't let me go…
"She's doing pretty well for her condition…" Clive said. "Clive! How can you say that?" Virginia asked him. "He's right." Gallows quickly said. All eyes turned to Gallows.
"The sickness she has can go different ways. The weak shamans normally die within two to three days from what Granny when say." Gallows told them. "And the strong ones?" Jet asked gallows. "Could be months or even years for them. But in time…they can't walk or move they're arms. It maybe even better if they do die before it gets that bad…" Gallows told him.
Jet quickly grabbed gallows by the neck. "Jet!" Virginia yelled. "How can you say that?!" Jet asked. "I'm only telling the truth. Think about it! She would be in less pain…if she didn't live years with her sickness. Soon the med granny made for her will not help it be bearable." Gallows told Jet. Jet slowly let go of him.
It's not the end…
Jet had a look of horrible over his face. "It really become that's bad?" Clive asked. "From what I heard yeah. Most shamans who lived long with it…ended up killing themselves. Even if…it's a sad way to go…" Gallows said.
"…that painful…and that what they got for saving the planet. Using they're power." Gallows slowly shook his head. "It's no wonder…the race died out." Clive said as he shook his head. "Sara…" Virginia whispered.
Girl you know, it's not so bad…
Jet didn't say a word as he stared toward Sara. "Jet…" Clive whispered. Jet didn't say a word. "…It much be painful to watch this…" Clive spoke to Jet. Still he wouldn't answer.
It's not the end…
"I…I'm going to find a cure…" Jet slowly said. "Whoa wait! Do you know what you're saying?" Gallows asked him. "Of course I know what I am saying! If a cure is the only way to save her then that's what I will find!" Jet yelled to Gallows.
The three gave Jet a shocked look. "So…someone finally came clean to her huh?" Gallows asked hitting him in the side. "…what? I…I just!" Jet couldn't get much more out of his mouth. "Ha ha! It's about time! I mean Gees you just kept giving her puppy dog eyes so much!" Gallows added in.
What Can I do…?
Jet quickly glared toward Gallows. "Uh oh…" Virginia and Clive said together. Clive and Virginia both closed their eyes as Jet punched Gallows in the stomach. "Why can't you ever keep your big mouth closed?!" Jet asked out of angry. "…Ouch gees…I guess I asked for that one…" Gallows cried rocking on the floor.
What you're gone…
A deep blush was across Jet's face. "Big idiot…" Jet growled. "Aww…it's not fair. Jet has a cute girlfriend with a nice…" Gallows started to say. Jet pointed his Arms at Gallows. "You don't want to finish saying that…" Jet quickly told him. "…O-Okay…" Gallows said as sweat rolled down his face.
When it feels so wrong…
Soon Jet and Gallows sat down back in their seats again. "So…uh where are we heading again?" Gallows asked. "We told you three times…" Jet said annoyed. "Yeah…but I can't remember." Gallows told him. "We are heading to Humphrey's peak to let Clive's family know he is alright." Virginia spoke up. "Then we head too little rock after that." Clive added in.
What can I say to make you wanna stay…
The path was in place. But little did they know…they would be off track very soon.
Soon the train made a quick stop and the lights when out. I quickly woke up as I started to fall forward. "What the?" I asked as I felt someone catch me. "Are you alright?" I heard Jet's voice ask. "Yes…but why is your hand on my leg?" I asked him. "My hand isn't…" Jet started to say. "Hehe…I mean Oops…" Gallows voice said. I felt a sweat drop roll down the back of my head.
So what can I do…
"I'll give you an Oops!" Jet yelled. I think it was a good thing I couldn't see what Jet was doing to Gallows. "Ouch! Oh, come on Jet stop! Ouch! I'm sorry okay!? Please! Ouch!" Gallows cried.
Don't…
Don't let me go…
"…Why did the train stop and why did the power go out?" Virginia asked Clive. "I do not know…I have never heard of this ever happening before…" Clive said. "It's a black out…" I said. "Yes…indeed it is…but why now?" Clive asked.
Just then we heard a voice from the inner com. "Thank you for riding Filgaia line 232 we are having power problems as of present. Please bear with us. The problem will be fixed shortly." The voice told us. "That could be hours…" Gallows quickly said. "…we can't wait hours…if we do…we will be found…" Virginia said. "But leaving the car now…would also be a bad idea." Clive told Virginia. What to do was the question.
It's not the end…
Just then the room started to glow red. "What the hell is going on now?" Jet asked. "Warning! Warning! The four wanted have been seen on this train. Please stay safely in your cars for the time being…A search will be going on shortly…" The voice from the over head box said. "Ah…crap…" Jet whispered. "How did they find us?" Virginia asked. "It was gallows fault…he's so huge in his brown robe." Jet quickly said. "Are you calling me fat?!" Gallows asked Jet.
"No but you called yourself fat…" jet said with a grin across his face. "Damn you little…" Gallows started to say. "Stop it! We don't' have time for this!" Virginia cried. "That's true. If they catch us…then it's all over." Clive added in.
Girl you know, it's not so bad…
"How are we going to do this? We are sitting ducks if we stay here. They are searching cars as we speak…" I said. "Hmm…okay. We will have to go in two teams." Virginia told us. "Two teams?" Jet asked. "Yeah, one team will lead them away from the location and the other will head for the back of the train and jump off." Virginia told us. "…I'm liking this idea less and less…" Gallows said with a sigh.
"We don't have much of a chose right now. It's the only way. We still meet at the same location." Clive told the others. "Okay…that all and good but who's on what team?" gallows asked. "I will lead the team to draw them away. Clive and Gallows come with me." Virginia told them. "Aww…so unfair…" Gallows cried.
"Fine, then in the mean time after ten minutes Jet, you take Sara and yourself and hurry off the train." Clive told us. "Alright…" Jet quickly said.
It's not the end…
"I still really hate this plan…" Gallows cried. "Too bad deal with it…" Jet told him. "Easy for you to say you have the easy job." Gallows cried. "Gallows come on." Clive told him. "Alright…" Gallows said with a sigh.
Soon the three left the train car. And then it was just me and Jet again.
You know it's not the end…
"Then minutes huh?" Jet asked me. I didn't say a word. Because…I didn't want to do what I had been planning. But I had a feeling…I would still go ahead and do it.
"Sara?" Jet asked me. "…She did this because of my condition didn't she?" I asked him. "…She just worried about you. Everyone worried about you." Jet told me. "I know that…" I whispered to him.
Don't leave me this way…
"Then why are you…" Jet started to ask me. I didn't let him finish as I rested my head against his chest. "S…Sara?" He asked me. "It's so tiring…all of this…" I told him. I could feel it. His body was shaking. I had surprised him very much so.
Cause it feels so wrong…
"…" Jet didn't say a word as he put his arms around me. "I-I don't want to let go…" He told me. I felt heat quickly take over my face. What was I thinking? I had to start. I took out the letter from my pocket and quickly put it in his left pocket.
Stop all these games…
"W-whoa! W-what are you doing?" Jet asked as heat took over his face. "Putting my hand into your pocket?" I plainly told him. "Y-yes…I can see and feel that. But why?" Jet asked as he turned redder. "Why not?" I asked.
Jet growled a bit. "I-I don't mind you-you doing a lot of things but not this…" Jet quickly said pulling my hand out of his pocket. The letter was now in there. "y-you can do anything but that…" Jet whispered to me. "Anything, hmm?" I asked. "I really shouldn't have said that…" He whispered to me.
"maybe…" I told him. I slowly took out of piece of paper from my pocket this time. "But…" I whispered to him as I picked up my head to stare up toward his face. "B-But, what?" He asked me. I slowly shook my head and soon we were both head to head level. "…What? Why are you looking at me that way?" Jet asked me nervously.
I didn't say a word as I quickly pushed my lips against his. "Hmm…? S…" was all Jet could get out of his mouth. I had to start now. I held the piece of paper in my hand and it started to glow.
Jet quickly pulled away from me as cherry blooms started to fall around him. "S…Sara what are you doing?" He asked me. "I'm sorry…" I told him. Soon more started to fall around him. "This…This is…" Jet said feeling his eyes growing heavy.
"Beautiful blooms of the heavens surround the one before me and put him into a better place…" I said closing my eyes. "S…Sara, no stop!" Jet yelled to me. "Sleep!" I yelled as a huge wave of blooms surrounded him. And soon he fell to the floor lying down. "S…Sara, why?" He asked.
Cause I just can't say goodbye…
"I'm sorry…but it's all for the best…" I told him as I slowly stood up. He was fighting against the spell. But he was slowly losing. "I need to go now…" I told him as I headed for the door. "N-no…d-don't go…!" Jet yelled as the spell took full control of him. He fell into a deep sleep.
"I'm sorry…I regret so much but…it's best for the both of us. For us to move on…we must forget about each other…so I guess this is goodbye…" I whispered to the sleeping silver hair boy.
I slowly shook my head as I placed a new seal on the door. Then I left the car closing the door behind me without looking back.
Goodbye Jet…I thought as I hurried to the back of the train.
---
Ten minutes later…
"Ouch what the hell?" I asked as I sat up. Then I remembered what had happened. "Sara!" I yelled as I quickly stood up. I felt something poking me in the left side in my pocket. "What the hell? I didn't have anything in my…" I started to say.
"Wait…that's the pocket she put her hand in…" I said remembering. I quickly pulled out a letter from my pocket. "…A letter…? Why would she give me it like this?" I wondered as I slowly opened it.
Dear, Jet:
If you are reading this letter then First of all I'm sorry. I must have taken the easy way out. I'm not a strong person. I never had been. I always go for the easy road. That's why doing this was so hard.
I learned so very much about myself the last months. And I guess I should be thanking you. Even if much I learned was all sad things. And I do regret so much that happened in that time…
I slowly shook my head. "What is this? This sounds like a goodbye…letter?" I slowly shook my head again as I turned the paper over.
I regret so much…And I came to learn something. Something that should have never happened. We should have never met.
"…w-what?" I asked reading that line over again.
We should have never met.
"N-no…that's not…" I quickly said shaking my head as I dropped the letter. "H-how? How could she say that?" I asked myself. I couldn't bear to read anymore of it. "H-How could you say that, Sara? We should have never met? No! No! NO!" I yelled getting to my feet.
"No…if we have never met…I-I would still be lost in this world; without a place. But because I met you…I found that place…" I shook my head as I pushed the door opened. I hurried toward the back of the train.
This isn't…No; I will not let this be goodbye! I told myself.
Back in the train car the letter sat. He wouldn't ever finish reading it.
The letter when on saying…
We should have never met. But I am glad we did Jet. I wouldn't be the person I am today without you. Because you are my partner and my best friend.
That is why I am sorry to do this to you. But this is the better for the both of us. We must forget about each other and move on. I guess this is goodbye.
Sara Lynn Maxwell
The end?

Author note: I know I'm bad. What an ending right? I don't believe every story can be a happy ending. That's why I ended this one this way. And I believe this was the best ending for this tale in truth. Plus it's a good way to open my next wild arms story. It's not the end for our team. Plus I had many others things I wanted to add into this story but did not so most likely I will add it into the next one.
Again thank you all for reading to the end.
