Author's note: Last drabble! Sad drabble. Also Fallenshine is canonly bisexual.
Blacklight coughed, and blood sprayed onto her burned, ruined armor. Fallen wasn't here. Where the hell were they?
She glanced at herself in the small mirror the medics had placed beside her tent, and almost immediately wanted nothing more than to push the mirror away. Her flesh was charred, what remained of her fur patchy and covered with soot.
A bit of commotion, then Fallen entered the tent. Their white fur was stained gray with the ash from what remained of the fire, but no orange light entered from outside. The fire that had engulfed the palace was gone.
Soon Blacklight, too, was to be gone.
Fallen sat at their mate's side, curling their tail around Blacklight's useless, burned one. "I'm sorry."
"Wh-what are you sorry-- for?"
Fallen's blue eyes glimmered with tears, a way they had never done when they were purple. "I couldn't save you from her."
Blacklight used her fading strength to turn, before Fallen simply lifted her into their lap. "Do you really think Kitstorm did this?"
Fallen scowled. "I know she did this."
They began to get up, but Blacklight grabbed their hand. "Stay with me?"
Fallen let a tear slip from their eye, but they sat back down. "Alright."
They stayed like that for a long time. So long that by the time Fallen rose again, the sun was, once again, setting.
So long that their mate's corpse had become cold.
so uh let me explain lol
Selena, after being corrupted, married Fallen off to this asshole named Coronos, who she then gave the right to the throne. Fallen and Kit, on the other hand, were to be beheaded under fake charges of treason. Their execution and Coronos' Coronation were supposed to happen at the same time, so one the way to the execution yard, Fallen broke from the path, entered the throne room, and used magic to essentially cut Coronos in half. They then stole the throne. This was the beginning of the war between Life and Creation, and eventually Chaos and Creation.
Blacklight was the daughter of a king in the south, and she was half- Erni, her mother having been an erni-tac. Her father joined on Kitstorm's side (Firelight) and forbade his daughter from fighting because he wouldn't have anyone to marry off to a prince. He exited the war, however, when he was informed that both Firelight and Blank Canvas were, technically, female.
When her father died, Blacklight took over and rejoined the war on BC's side, after finding they were her soulmate. The war went from 0 to 100 when the camps and/or palaces the three powers were taking temporary residence in (Firelight and Blank Canvas in camps, and Blacklight, as well as most of her troops, in an old, abandoned palace) were set on fire by rebels who thought that by killing the powers, they could make the war end.
Blacklight was caught in the fire and killed by her injuries. BC, angry and believing that Firelight had killed their mate, demanded that she fight them in person instead of 'hiding behind her troops.'
Blank Canvas and Firelight fought and somehow managed to banish each other to different dimensions. The war didn't officially end until a few years later, when some guy killed the other competitors to the throne and took it, beginning the dark ages. It was so bad that when Fallen and Kit were released/broke free from their respective prisons, they thought the was was still going on.
...i mean *lore noises*
