As all the brawlers cry their eyes out over their fallen bakugan. Flora and Helia came back in the room and she took a seat next to Klaus. She took Heila's hand and placed his arms around her. The room is filled with light crying and sobs. Alice wrapped Shun into a loving hug. After a few moments of silence, Flora decided to say something.
"Skyress was an amazing partner." she said with a small whimper.
"Damn straight she was." Shun agreed with a small chuckle.
"She was a protector, a lover, a fighter. Everyone loved her." Dan said.
"And God forbid anyone looked at Shun wrong." Marcho said with a small chuckle.
The whole room started to fill with laughter.
"I remember one time when we were in a middle of a battle and I started to get a little worried about us losing the match and Skyress looked at me and said "don't you worry about it Shun. I will handle it". I knew at that moment it was going to be alright. She always had that personality to make any worries go away. Just like my mother did." Shun explained as he had a sad smile on his face.
"Oh Shun." Alice said as she held his hand tightly.
"I remember before me and Alice started dating that she had to approve of her." Shun said with a small chuckle.
"I was so embarrassed." Alice said lightly giggling.
"I miss her so much." Shun said before sobbing once again.
"Shun, I hate to say this but we have little time to mourn. We can do a simple ceremony to honor Skyress but I promise to give her a proper funeral when we arrest Illing." Flora said as she wiped her tears.
"It's okay Flora. I understand. I hate to ask this of you but can you, Musa, play the flute. I have heard you before and Flora talks very highly of you musical skills." Shun asked nervously.
"Of course I will. Anything for a friend of Flora." Musa said with a small smile.
"We can have it at the stream she visited. It was her favorite spot to go to." Shun said.
"Lets go." Flora said as everyone stood and followed behind Shun and Alice.
They follow them to a small river and Flora passed out small petals to them. Shun sat down on the ground and cradled the rose in his hand.
"I'm gonna miss Skyress. I really am. You'll get your justice Skyress. I will see to it." Shun said sadly. "Flo, remember that poem you wrote when my mother died. Can you read it for me?" He asked.
"Of course." Flora said as she sat next to him.
POEM:
We Remember but Never Forget
We remember you love and care
We remember your loving words
We remember your words of advice
We remember your loving smile
We remember you as if you never left
But sadly you did
You had to leave us, not by choice
You no longer needed to be here with us
You taught us everything we needed to know
The only lesson left to teach us,
Was how to say goodbye
We thank you for the lesson you did teach us
You taught us how to be better people
You showed love those who love you
We will miss you, our fallen friend
But we will never forget
We will never forget your love and care
We will never forget your loving words
We will never forget your words of advice
We will never forget your loving smile
We will never forget our angel in the sky
We remember you but we will never forget you
Flora said from pure memory. Shun noticed the tears in her eyes as she spoke and slowly wrapped her arm around her. When she finished, she placed her petal in the water along with Shun. The rest of the bawlers, winx, specialists followed in suit. As the flowers slowly floated down the river, Musa started to play a song of mourning on the flute. When the flowers were no longer in sight, she slowly stopped. Flora kissed Shun on the kiss before she got up and walked to Heila for a hug. Alice got up with Shun and walked back to the BBA. This was sad day for the BBA. This was a sad day for he brawlers. This day sparked something in all of them. Avengance.
The poem is 100% original. It took me a while to figure it out. This poem goes out to those who are dealing with loss. I want all of you to know that it does get better. It takes forever but it truly does. Thank you and see you in the next chapter.
