A/N: Second to last drabble. I hope you enjoy this one, because I'm not sure how the last drabble is going to turn out... xP
Perfection was my goal; research was my path.
I was a phoenix, an immortal.
I stayed up hour upon hour upon hour. The sun never sets in Las Noches, so I always had time for research. It was wonderful. I was steadily inching closer to my goal.
I had countless test subjects, and even more who were just begging me to experiment on them!
Then my newest subjects came along; a shingami, and even more exciting, a quincy!
There was just so much I could do with them.
But, of course, as always happens to me with the cream of the crop, they aggravate me to the point where I decide to just kill them off as slow as they are annoying.
Mistake on my part to drag out the show.
Well, it is how we learn.
But then another shinigami comes along and just won't die!
I must say it was truly frightening.
Then the damned man injures me to the point where I must resurrect myself using Gabriel. It seemed he had another trick up his sleeve, the aborrable freak!
I was paralyzed by this… strange concoction!
Then everything happens so… slowly…
Then I felt his blade puncture the most sensitive of nerves that resides in the palm of my hand. How dreadfully painful it was!
Then I waited for the metal of the zanpakuto's blade to pierce my breast, puncture my heart, and end it all!
I am still waiting.
And I have just one last request. A request I have wanted to make ever since I first saw the blade slicing continuously, oh so slowly through my hand…
…
JUST LET ME DIE!!!!!
