Genre: General
You need to move on, aibou.
Yeah. Yeah, I know that.
I know it's hard. I'm sorry I have to leave so soon. It's your turn, now. You can do it.
I wanted you to have a new life… You never really got a chance –
Of course I did. I met you, didn't I? It's enough, aibou.
I wish we had more time. I don't want to keep going on my own.
We were always lucky. You'll be lucky again. You'll see. Just go. It's all right.
I can't.
It's all right. This has been a long time coming. You're the King of Games now. You'll be fine. Do everything the way we did it.
You have to be okay, Yami… I thought we were gonna make it out together.
I will be okay. And so will you. I think this is what I've been waiting for, really. I'm sorry I have to go. This is just where I belong.
Then I want to be with you.
You can't…
Please.
You can't. You have to carry the title.
I don't know how to.
Yes, you do. I've seen you. And I've said it before: you have the heart of a pharaoh.
I don't…
Yes, you do. It's inside of you. It was always there. I can see it. I can tell.
Just take me with you.
I can't. I can't bring my partner to death with me. I thought I could but I can't…
You said you wouldn't ever leave me.
I know. I'm sorry. You have my whole heart. You always did. You're the best of us. You always were. If I'm not here, you can still talk to me. You can talk to me and I'll talk to you. You'll see.
Will I hear you?
You will. You just have to practice. Just don't give up. Okay?
All right.
You'll be all right. You're going to be lucky, I know you are. Goodness will find you. It always has. It will again.
I'll talk to you every day. And I won't forget. No matter what.
You're going to be okay. Do you trust me?
Yes.
And I trust you. I believe in you. You'll do just fine.
Okay.
Okay. Goodbye.
Bye, Yami. I love you.
Oh, aibou, I know. I love you, too. I love you so much.

A/N: I don't really like this one because it's kind of cheesy and overly dramatic, but eh. Here it is anyway.
