Aurore's Moemon Adventure
Chapter 84
"Aurore." Aurore looked up and saw Sarah's spirit standing over him, smiling.
"Sarah…" Aurore said, staring at Sarah, frowning. "I'm sorry… I couldn't save you."
"It's alright." Sarah said, smiling sadly. "I'm happy. For the first time in my life, I'm really and truly happy. I was able to spend my last moments with the one I loved, and I couldn't be happier."
Sarah's spirit began to grow fainter.
"My existence was extended by the magic Yomi gave to me…" Sarah said, looking down sadly at her fading body. "But now it's finally come to an end."
"Wait, don't go." Aurore said, his eyes desperate as he reached towards the girl. "Please, don't go. I don't want to lose you again."
"You won't." Sarah said, shaking her head, smiling. "My spirit, my mind might move on to the next world, but my soul will always remain a part of Sora's soul."
"Please, Aurore, I want you to protect Sora." Sarah said, smiling. "The other me. The fact that Sora has been at your side all this time, it has made me happier than anything."
"Never lose hope." Sarah said, wrapping her arms around Aurore. "Protect the people you care about and keep them at your side. No matter what happens, never lose sight of the ones you love."
Sarah had become nearly gone at this point, only a faint outline of her remained.
"Please, take care of yourself. I'll be thinking of you." Sarah said, a faint outline of her smile visible to Aurore. "And when you think of me, think fond memories. I shall be waiting for you on the other side."
"Sarah…" Aurore said, watching her disappear before him once again, and once again unable for him to stop her from leaving.
"Don't worry, Aurore, I'm not afraid. Not then, and not now. It might be scary to be alone, but I'll be fine." Sarah said, smiling. "Until we meet again, please live on with my other self, and be happy. For both our sakes."
"I will." Aurore said, nodding.
"Thank you…" Sarah said, disappearing. "And goodbye…"
Sarah disappeared from Aurore, and Aurore found himself standing in the exact same room, only it was in the middle of collapsing. Aurore caught a glimpse in the mirror, and saw that he looked like himself again.
Aurore turned and ran out of the door, heading down the stairs and reaching the torture room, as if some unknown voice in his head was guiding him there.
He flung open the iron door and entered, running over to the cell Sephiria was trapped in.
"Aurore…" Sephiria said, staring at him. "How did you…"
"Later." Aurore said, grabbing the blowtorch from the table. He stepped over Shaw, who had long since passed out from his wounds, and began burning through the lock.
Damn, to slow… Aurore frowned, gritting his teeth. There isn't enough time…
Aurore turned and saw what seemed to resemble a saw. He grabbed the saw off of the table, and slammed it against the hot lock, snapping it. He threw the door open and ran over to Sephiria, who was still locked up.
"What now?" Sephiria asked, looking up at Aurore.
"This." Aurore said, frowning. He yanked on the chains, which were rather rusty. He began sawing through the rust, until the chains snapped off in his hands.
He helped Sephiria up, and the two headed towards the exit, Sephiria leaning on his shoulder for support.
"No…" Aurore said, his face going pale. They were standing in the hallway, but the walls had collapsed in on them, and were continuing to collapse.
"What… Are we going to do…?" Sephiria asked, panting. Aurore became slightly flustered, feeling the pressure of her naked body pressing against his arm.
Suddenly, an array of light appeared in front of the two.
A white clothed figure stepped through the gateway, looking at Aurore and Sephiria.
"Arceus." Aurore said, frowning, glaring at her.
"Aurore." Lucia said, frowning. She walked towards him, her hand shining, Aurore tensing up.
"Don't worry." Lucia said, frowning. An array of light appeared beneath Aurore and Sephiria's feet, the array shining.
"Arceus, why…" Aurore asked, confused.
"Call me Lucia." Lucia said, smiling sadly. "It's the name the person I love gave to me, after all."
"Why are you helping us?" Aurore asked.
"I'm sorry." Lucia said, frowning. "He told me that if I refused to help him, then the Reinhart Family would take custody of that child, and use her for their own goals. So now I'm going to help you. Because I don't want that child to grow up without a father."
Lucia looked at Aurore, and smiled sadly.
"Soon, I will lose myself and become someone else." Lucia said, smiling sadly. "So you have to live. You're the only parent Rin has in this world now."
Aurore disappeared into the array of light, Sephiria disappearing along with him.
"So, how the great Reinhart Family falls…" Lucia said, staring at collapsing building. She walked down the hall, and entered the dungeon, standing over Shaw.
"I shall soon leave…" Lucia said, staring down at Shaw, frowning. "However, I have some unfinished business with you, Shaw.
Lucia looked down at Shaw.
"So, you're still alive…" Lucia said, smiling. "Well now, you have quite a great amount of endurance, to last this long. But you won't need it anymore. This building will soon kill you… And you couldn't even stop the one you hated so much… It truly is pathetic, Alex. But you won't have to worry about dying in the wreckage."
Lucia's hand began glowing with white energy.
"You will be gone long before this building collapses." Lucia said, lowering her hand towards Shaw's comatose form.
EoS: So, Lucia returns to save the day! But now it's Aurore's turn to locate Sora and save the day himself! Will he be able to save the woman he loves?
Lauren: STOP BEING SO GODDAMN DEPRESSING!
