A/N: I have to write an ending to TLOTT for English, so I figured I would post it on here as well, and see what you think of it. It's in the princess's perspective, and it's the way I would have ended the story. Enjoy! (:
As I watched him approach the dreaded door, I started to wonder if I made the right decision. The young man whom I was in love with, about to meet his fate. When my father announced that my love was going to be put in the arena, I knew that I must be the one to decide his destiny. He was mine, and mine only. I would not let his life be trusted in the hands of fate.
Bribing the guard was the easy part. A few worthless pieces of gold and empty promises was all it took. What a foolish man. After hearing the arrangements, the choice was all that was on my mind. I believed that if I could not have the youth, then no one else could. Once mine, always mine. That was my belief. But on the other hand, should I left him live, and be happy? I did love him. That cannot be questioned. I spent long hours until I finally made the decision.
When the day of the tribunal arrived, I was not nervous. I had made my decision, and my decision was final. Either way, he could not be mine ever again. My semi-barbaric side influenced the choice greatly. My father passed that trait down to me. But we are not discussing my father. We are two seperate, different people. Anyways, back to the ceremony.
The moment he walked in, I felt my heart breaking. I would miss him greatly. My true love for him made the decision even more difficult. I figured that he would look to me for some type of advice, and I was right. When he looked up at me, for the last time, I rose my right hand. He immediately descended toward the right door. His trust in me was unshaken. When he reached the door, I whispered, too low for anyone to hear, "Goodbye, my love. I am sorry."
He pulled the door open. Before he could say a word, the beast was upon him. The tiger killed him within seconds. The sad part was, deep down, a piece of me enjoyed it. You may call me twisted, or cruel. Like I have said before, I am partially barbaric. Before you judge me too harshly, know that for weeks, I grieved over the loss. I still miss him dearly. Forever will I cherish our memories together.
Just know that I will never regret my decision between the lady, and the tiger.
Please review! I'm only thirteen, so I apologize if there were errors. Thanks for reading. (:
