A/N: This Oneshot was inspired by the song Last Goodbyes by Derivakat. I hope you enjoy this Oneshot!

Screams and cries are all that you hear through your blood filled ears, your mind filled with nothing but thoughts of war and possibilities of how this will turn out, you wonder how this started. It was peaceful, now it shows nothing but great chaos and destruction.

Place a golden flower

Glory in the summer

You had been wondering about the small garden in the base, the summer sun shining on your back as you walked. You stopped at a grave, the one that belongs to your dad. He had died during battle, the exact war you're still in now.

Memories in flashes

A heart of loss and light

Memories of you and your dad flashed through you mind, filling your pure heard with the feeling of loss, and the light of hope you had that he would walk through your front door any day then, before the new had been broken to your mother. You had been ten then, but now you are older.

Heed your captain's calling

 A lover's cry befalling

You were in battle, when you heard a voice, one that you recognized to be your captain and lover, John. He was yelling for you to move, but you were frozen in fear, for there was a gun pointed at you, ready for fire. You heard a cry from your lover, a plea for you to move, but it was no use.

A crown of grief rules nothing left but ashes

Loss within the night

Your body is shot with a fiery pain, one that could have left your body in ashes, but it only continues from there. The day you had once been in had fallen to night, indicating a new day soon arrives.

"I'll see you soon my dear,

Don't you shed a single tear"

Your body lay on John's lap, his arms cradling your body, you used what strength you had left to lift your hand onto his cheek, wiping the tears that were spilling, and as your told him those words, your took your last breath as your body succumbed o the darkness that took over.

Close your eyes my dear,

You have nothing left to fear

John couldn't do anything but watch as your eyes closed for the last time, to never open again. He was glad that you had nothing left to fear, for you were now with the gods, if there were ones.

Gods among the living

A love becomes forgiving

You watched from above, becoming a god yourself, you didn't really blame John for your death, you just hoped he didn't either.

But happy ever after 

Come with a price to pay

The war had been won, as the enemy captain had been shot, killing the guy and rendering the enemy helpless without their captain to order them, so they had surrendered. Thankfully the war had stopped, but you were the cost to final peace.

Bid your last goodbyes

As the light fades from their eyes

John had your body buried beside your fathers ], as you had always told him that was what you wanted. Everyone from the team bids you goodbye, and wishes you well in your new place, while the scene of your eye light fading from your eyes plays in John's head. 

An echoing of once familiar laughter

From one as bright as day

Years had passed, and this day was the day you had passed since such time. John could still hear your laughter echo from time to time, with your smile that could blind anyone just from how big it is. The boy had always felt as if he could feel your presence with him everywhere he went, only for it to be true. You had always been watching for him, to keep him safe away from others harm







 "I wish you well...My love. . . " His words echoed through the night
