"Hang in there, Isabella. Everything is going to be alright," Marcus whispers, his voice filled with desperation and sorrow. Isabella's condition worsens with each passing moment, and Marcus can feel his hope slipping away.

He holds her hand tightly, his heart heavy with the weight of the situation. Isabella's once vibrant eyes are now dull and lifeless, and Marcus can't bear to see her like this. He knows that time is running out, and he feels a sense of helplessness wash over him.

As he waits for Cyran to arrive, Marcus's mind races with regret and guilt. If only he had been a little bit earlier, maybe he could have saved Isabella from her sister's wrath. He blames himself for not being there to protect her, for not being able to prevent this tragedy.

But deep down, Marcus knows that he can't change the past. All he can do now is stay by Isabella's side and offer her comfort in her final moments. He brushes a strand of hair away from her face, his touch gentle and loving.

"I'm so sorry, Isabella," Marcus whispers, his voice filled with remorse. "I should have been there for you. I should have protected you."

Isabella's breathing becomes shallow, and Marcus can see the life slowly fading from her eyes. He fights back tears, trying to stay strong for her. He knows that she needs him now more than ever.

As Marcus looks at Isabella, he can't help but think about all the moments they shared together. The laughter, the tears, the adventures-they all flash before his eyes. He realizes how much he loves her, how much she means to him.

Just then, Cyran bursts into the room, his face filled with worry and determination. He rushes to Isabella's side, his hands moving swiftly to try and save her. Marcus watches as Cyran does everything in his power to keep Isabella alive, his heart filled with gratitude for his friend's unwavering support.

Time seems to stand still as Marcus watches Cyran fight to save Isabella's life. Every second feels like an eternity, and Marcus can't help but pray for a miracle. He knows that Isabella is strong, and he clings to the hope that she will pull through.

Finally, after what feels like an eternity, Cyran steps back, his face etched with exhaustion and defeat. Marcus's heart sinks, and he can't bear to look at Isabella's lifeless body. He falls to his knees, his body racked with sobs.

Cyran places a hand on Marcus's shoulder, offering him comfort in their shared grief. They sit there together, mourning the loss of someone they both loved so deeply.

As the days pass, Marcus and Cyran find solace in each other's presence. They lean on one another for support, finding strength in their shared memories of Isabella. They vow to honor her memory and continue fighting for the causes she believed in.

In the midst of their grief, Marcus and Cyran find a renewed sense of purpose. They know that Isabella's sacrifice was not in vain, and they are determined to carry on her legacy. Together, they will protect Gem Castle and ensure that Isabella's memory lives on.

As they stand side by side, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead, Marcus knows that he is not alone. He has Cyran by his side, a friend who understands his pain and shares his determination. And with that, Marcus finds the strength to move forward, knowing that Isabella will always be with him in spirit.
