Fight or Die Sequel

Epilouge

- Deathbringer

It has been 2 weeks since the battle. Most people are celebrating their win against Wasp.

Every warrior was killed instantly. Including Wasp. I was relieved to know that my family was finally safe.

But I shared the gloom of their household.

I had watched Asher's connection with Sunset. I had seen them speak to eachother before the battle.

I liked him. He was funny, and you could tell he cared about Sunset. His death wasn't something I expected. I didn't even think about him as a sacrifice.

I knew he would be here. Sooner or later. I planned to show him what life is like here, and how he can watch over everyone.

But he wasn't here yet. And today, of all days was especially glooming. It was the day I died. It was officially I really long time ago.

But for Glory and Moon they were down even more.

I watched as Glory sat at the lake watching the water ripple peacefully.

I don't know how I did it, but one moment I was sitting beside her, and the next I actually was.

I wasn't even trying to.

Glory looked at me startled. I looked down at my hands to see they were solid. Before I could say anything I felt her hug me tightly.

I hugged her back thankfully.

She finally pulled away saying, "Is there something else bad happening?" she asked.

"No I just was sitting with you and then I was here." I stutter.

I take her hand, overjoyed by the warm feeling that rushed through my body.

Glory leaned into me as I wrapped my arm around her waist.

"Is he up there?" she finally whispered.

"No, not yet. But he will be. I'll be there for him though. Just as Leaf was for me." I say.

Glory glanced at me. "You know you haven't aged at all. You still look 20." she chuckled.

I grinned. "Why thank you for noticing my ridiculously handsome face."

She laughed. "What handsome face?" she retored. I scoffed offended. "How rude! It is so handsome that I don't even age!" I boast.

"Shut up." she laughed. I smiled warmly at her.

"You are still just as beautiful as you were the day we met, all those years ago." I say softly. Glory kisses me.

It's still the best feeling ever. It's times like this that I realize that being dead is very different than being like this.

There I still feel, and I thought I felt as much as I did here. But here kissing Glory, it's like warm sunshine in the coldest day of winter.

I leaned my forehead against hers. "I love you. Always."

She smiled at me, but it was a painful smile. "I love you too Deathbringer."

I held her hand tightly as we spoke about anything. Lunaria, are blueberries better than raspberries, Qibli and Moon, why do trees smell like pine instead of anything else?
