Alatus/Xiao POV:

I had said my goodbyes.. so why did I still feel like I was unfulfilled, like my life was unfinished, like I still had something to do?

What was it?

I had been alive for so many years and yet I haven't even done the things I wanted to do?

What was missing?

.

The cracks in the platform grew bigger. At least [Y/N] made it out safe.

I hope they forget me.

I did nothing good in their life. If they forgot me they could live their life out normally. Without guilt, without worry.

I wish them well.

I could feel the platform under me shaking. I didn't even need to look down to know that it was going to break. I looked up.

"..I guess our bond wasn't strong enough.." I whispered to myself.

I couldn't say more before the ground under me disappeared. I fell.

Far.

Far.

Far, down.

This was it.

The end.

So many thought ran through my head. I couldn't bear the weight of it all. I'm too weak.

I put a weak smile on my face and closed my eyes. In the honor of [Y/N] I wanted to smile in my last moments.

Warmth. I felt warmth. Where was it coming from?

I carefully opened my eyes again. What I saw was beautiful. Golden streaks of light reaching out for me. Was this a dream? Or was I dying?

The golden light reached me, I felt.. safe. The shimmer of the light almost blinded me but I couldn't look away. I was too mesmerized by it.

I accepted it. Is this what the mortals call fate?

I closed my eyes again.

When I opened them I realized what had happened before.

I was.. alive. Outside.

I looked around. I was on the surface. I saw the Chasm below me. I saw something else too.

It was them. [Y/N]. I approached them but paused when I saw what state they were in.

They were hugging their legs tight against their body. But what I saw was nothing compared to what I heard. It was heartbreaking. I heard heavy breathing and uncontrollable tears.

Where they crying? Over me?

I reached out to them and touched their shoulder. The crying stopped.

"Who are you..? Leave me be." Their voice cracked.

"[Y/N].."

Their posture stiffened.

They turned their head. Their eyes were wide and tear-filled.

"I thought you.. how are you- I don't-... what?"

They were obviously confused. So it wasn't them who saved me. I looked around. I then looked up and saw golden-brown locks heading away. So it was him. I should have known.

I looked back at [A/N]. I wiped their tears away with my hand.

"Why are you crying?"

I rested my hand on their cheek, they put their hand on top of mine, closed their eyes and leaned into the touch.
