Okay, I did this on a whim. Like, after the new chapter, I was going to write this, but after a few film theories and lots of Reddit... yeah, I got nothing.
Really hard for me to make this satisfactory for myself (due to my unfortunate syndrome of extreme laziness and procrastination) but if you guys want more, feel free to PM me or leave a review on how to make this better! (Although I will not guarantee I will try to make it better since... the syndrome.)
Another shout-out to all the lovely reviewers out there! Your comments perk up my day!

"Take me… there," she could barely whisper, let alone look into the pale blue eyes of Gilfrost. He was about to protest, when he heard her plea: "I'm begging you…"

She denied the truth again and again. Not like this. Not like this…
Then the smoke cleared some more, and she caught sight of those brazen muscles, those golden strands shadowing his bloody face, his fatal wounds all over his broken vessel. Seven hearts, and yet…
His eyes were ominously closed.
"There you are… Meliodas…" She dropped to her knees. The tears began pouring out like waterfalls.
Not like this. Never like this.
Why?
I didn't want it to end like this…
"Not like this…" I never wanted it to end… who knew… The blood seeped onto her clothes and fingers. "Please, no…"
The ugly truth dawned upon her; the blood and gore unmasked—and she couldn't take it anymore. Her mouth opened to let out a full-fledged, bloodcurdling scream.
"NO-OOOOO!"
