The Heartbreak Prince Sebastian Sallow

Chapter 77: Don't be afraid

*Merry Christmas everyone!!! Enjoy!!!!*

Sebastian POV

"Sebastian, stop."

"No Ominis! I won't do it! What you're asking me to do is absolutely out of the question!" I yelled, keeping my eye on the dark wizard as his smile brightened. Our argument obviously giving him strength as he watched us. 

"What is your suggestion then Sebastian! There is no other way out! We are completely outnumbered now, the least we can do is spare her a life of torture!" Ominis yelled. 

I edged towards the dark wizard, pointing my wand at his head. Wanting to just take him out and get his over with. Putting us both in the most impossible decision of our life as I felt the tears sting my eyes. 

Ominis grabbed my arm, pulling it down and forcing me to look at him. 

"You are the only one who can defeat him, I'm.......... not strong enough to use a killing curse and she's going to take me out once that spell is released. You won't have enough time to react even if our magic was combined against her......." He sighed, "She's too strong and he knows it. You have to cut the head off the snake for the others to flee............ I know you know this. Stop fighting it Sebastian...." Ominis said softly at my side. 

I looked at Ominis white eyes, tears wanting to break free as he sniffled them away. Looking at the ground then back up at me. 

"Please......... there has to be another way.... we can wait for reinforcements, we have to!" 

Ominis shook his head, "There's no one coming Sebastian, even if Anne told the authorities right now, they might arrive too late..... we can't keep stalling forever. Once these other wizards finish taking out the centaurs it will be almost 10 on 2. We are unbelievably outnumbered. You have to make the choice-"

I couldn't take it, I rushed to him. Throwing my arms around his back as I pulled him in close to me. Ominis breath shook in shock. Taken back of my actions as the tears full force were running down my face as a sob escaped my mouth. He was right in all aspects, but I didn't want to lose my best friend and the woman I loved.

Ominis came around my back, holding me close as we breathed the same air together the last time. 

"I wish... I wish it didn't have to end this way." I said, pulling away from him.

He chuckled lowly, "Remember what we said earlier Sebastian?"

I looked at him confused, feeling more tears slide my face as I watched the first tear release from his white orbs.

"Remember who we are doing this for."

Both of our eyes immediately went behind us. Seeing Alora barely holding on, her eyes still bright green, her eyes sockets and eye lids red and swollen from the constant crying she had been doing through this whole ordeal. 

I looked at Ominis, raising his wand to look at her. 

I sighed, "It should have been me. Not you."

Ominis turned, putting a hand on my shoulder and squeezing.

"It was always going to be you, Sebastian. I never stood a chance."

I bit my cheek, realizing that he was referring to his feelings for her. He knew. He knew from the beginning, regardless if we walked out of here unscathed or not. 

"Ominis-"

"Give me a moment Sebastian.... I want to say goodbye." He said softly. 

I only nodded to him after a moment. The only gesture I was able to muenster as another sob wanted to escape me. 

He walked slowly to her. Her grip on her wand tightening as she widened her stance. 

He reached his arm slowly to her hand, pushing the wand it to the right side of his temple. 

"Don't bother! She can't hear you!!" The dark wizard yelled. 

"I don't believe that for a second Alora. I know you can hear and see me....... but you're stuck inside there aren't you...."

He reached slowly to her tear-stained face, pushing a small hair that had fell, pushing it near her shoulder softly. 

She began to huff and puff, her hands beginning to shake around the wand as she inched it towards his face again. I gritted my teeth as I felt my even my own heartrate begin to quicken. She could so easily take him out with being that close.

"You don't have to be afraid...... you've done so well and been so brave." He said softly, taking a step closer to her.

"I know, no matter what happens my beautiful girl you can't hurt me.......... I won't even feel it coming........ I'll close my eyes and picture only you........."

She sucked in a harsh breath, her knees beginning to shake as she bit onto her lip harshly. A slow trail of blood being released. 

"I'll......... picture you on that beautiful beach, how the sun lit up your face, making your eyes sparkle just like the reflection on the sea. Feeling the warmth of your touch reaching me to my core...... I swear my dear...... I'll only feel you............ I promise...."

He took another slow step forward, her hand with the wand near his cheeks. He reached up, caressing her soft face with his thumbs. 

He sighed, "You don't need to be afraid.......... just know, I'll love you."

The brightness in her eyes began to dim. Her pupils beginning to show as her face began to relax. 

She blinked slowly, each blink the bright green becoming dimmer by the second.

Her hand slowly began to drop to her side that was holding the wand. 

"Ominis........" I whispered.

He reached back up to her face, two hands cupping her cheeks as he slowly caressed her face. 

"I know it won't be easy Alora.......... but they are going to need you, and you to them. Please........." He huffed out a sigh, "Take care of yourself.......... this time. For real...... for Sebastian........... for me........."

He leaned in slowly, kissing her lips almost in slow motion. When he pulled away, dipping her head softly so their foreheads were touching as they breathed each other in. 

"Goodbye............. my sweet girl." He whispered.

He pulled away swiftly, leaving her quickly. Her eyes closed as I watched her, regaining her balance. 

Ominis back up slowly, coming to my side as our eyes met on last time. 

"Take care of her Sebastian. She's..........." He huffed, letting a tear fall. "She's going to need you." 

I gulped, "I swear it." 

He smiled, turning towards her. Her wand once again being raised. 

The dark wizard huffed, "The impossible choice, how noble of you." He joked.

Ominis turned to face him, smiling slightly. 

"You'd be surprised......... what people do for love."

He broke out into a laugh, "Love just got you killed you dumb kid."

Ominis chuckled, "Maybe......... but I'd do it all over again."

Ominis turned to me. Giving me one last smile, dropping his wand to the ground before turning to Alora. 

"Do it Sebastian." He said softly, closing his eyes as he waited.

I huffed, raising my wand to the dark wizard. Smiling as I did as the last few tears shed down my face. 

The dark wizards face smiling bright as he waited for his end. 

"I'm going to enjoy this." The dark wizards said proudly. 

"I'll make sure you fucking will." I said, gripping my wand harshly as I looked at Ominis one last time. 

"Goodbye my friend..............."

"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
