LAST CHAPTER!
This is one of my shortest ficts as it was more a character establishing fict, but I enjoyed it, sorry the ending seems a little weak xD
I didn't think it would get so far ^^
Lala fell sideways with Rito on top of her, the ugly Lovely-lover-kun released it's arrow as it smashed into a nearby tree. The poor, terrified couple stood trembling in each other arms as Lala looked up at Rito, coughing a little from the hit on the floor, Rito sighed and stood up, holding his hand out to Lala.
"Lala, you can't change how people feel or what they do, especially not in a story book when things are already written, changing it could ruin everything and even make people un-happy in the end" He explained, pulling his pink haired friend up to her feet.
Sairenji ran up to the couple and nodded "Rito is right, things happen for a reason" she exclaimed, a soft but harsh tone in her voice.
The two story book characters stood watching the group, the guy still had the woman still in his arms.
"Do...do you mean you know how this ends?" the woman asked, breaking free of the mans arms and slowly approaching Rito, Lala and Sairenji "You know how this ends...is it good?"
Sairenji looked at Rito a little worried, they both knew they couldn't tell them how it ended.
"Well...it's a story of tragedy and loss" Lala looked at Rito, a little sad as she understood what was wrong about trying to change someone's story "But I can't tell you...it's for you to find out, but you love each other so you will be okay" she smiled, a sad, little smile which didn't quite reach her eyes. She turned to Rito and Sairenji "I think it's time to go home"
she pulled out story-story change-kun and set it off as the portal appeared before them, she jumped in with Sairenji after
Rito turned to the story book couple and smiled "I'm sorry about her" and with that he jumped into the portal after them.
The portal closed behind them as Lala sat quietly, looking through the story book.
Sairenji and Rito sat next to her
"I'm sorry, Lala" Rito muttered "I'm sorry we couldn't save them, or change their story"
Surprisingly Lala turned with a smile on her face "I understand now, you should be happy with how things work out"
Sairenji and Rito smiled at her, they knew that Lala did understand, but to what extent they would never know.
