Unknown Requiem

033

Persephone released a blood curdling screams into the air,catching the attention of those around her. Immediately C2 turned towards the distraught Persephone,who slowly walked over to the body of her beloved. With her body shaking over this traumatic event Persephone slumped to her knees beside Castiel. His handsome face seeming to be at peace despite the circumstances. Gently Persephone held onto her lovers body shedding tears for him. She had caused this,if Persephone hadn't interrupted his peaceful life then maybe. Just maybe he wouldn't had suffered such a terrible fate. "I-im so sorry. I'm so sorry."Persephone sobbed, her tears cascading down her cheeks and onto Castiel's. She knew if he could he would wipe away her tears. And reassure her that she had done nothing wrong. But he couldn't anymore. And it was her fault. Gritting her teeth Persephone gently pressed her forhead against Castiel's hoping to feel some sort of sign of life.

After all they were in C's world,a place where the impossible was possible. To others who knew nothing of C's world was sort of like heaven. It was the place where the consciousness of those who have died go to. A place where their minds were still intact so in a way these people never truly die,for their very minds linger through a C's world awaiting reincarnation. So could Castiel be here? Could his mind be waiting for her? Waiting to be reincarnated? Persephone took a deep breathe before closing her eyes,trying her best to calm her rapidly beating heart. She had to concentrate,if Persephone was going to pull off this miracle she needed absolute concentration.

"Haven't you done enough?"Lucia cried as she crawled over to Castiel,cradling his body in her arms like she use to when he was a boy. A young man filled with so much life,so much love it simply made her heart melt. And now her light in this world once again had been snatched from her very fingers. And it was all because of Persephone. "You've taken my son and this world's future. What else do you want?"Lucia cried,her voice cracking due to the amount of strain. Persephone peered towards the broken Empress. Her eyes were now red due to her tears and her once calm demeanor was now replaced with that of a concerned and broken parent. "I know I have caused all of this turmoil Your Highness...."Persephone began before placing her hand on Lucia's trembling one. "But please believe me I intend to fix everything. "Persephone stated,her voice filled with undying determination. Determination that shook Lucia to the core.

Because despite the fact that she had been betrayed by Persephone. And her world being turned upside down due to her arrival. But even so something deep inside Lucia told her that Persephone could indeed be trusted. Making eye contact with the young woman,Lucia nodded before allowing Persephone to concentrate. With her hands gripping onto Castiel's firmly,Persephone dug deep within herself in search of any sign of life within him. Even the smallest ember could become a great flame when fanned by wind. And that was all Persephone needed. An ember. And that was when she felt it.

The intense heat of of a single flame,it was small yes. Yet it continued to burn with the brilliance of the sun deep within the body of Castiel. But something was different about this flame it wasn't Castiel's. This flame was older,abit more mature and seemed to be struggling to maintain equilibrium with Castiel's body. But who did this flame belong to? "I've found it."Persephone whispered before allowing her very soul to extend to the flame. Fully embracing it's warmth. It was then that Persephone's brilliant azure eyes bore the symbol.of geass within them. Startling both Lucia and M2.

"No....how?"M2 whispered in utter disbelief. Never had her daughter been able to use the full capabilities of her geass. And to top it off her geass power was unknown. What could it do? With Castiel's blood dripping from the blade in her hand M2 glared towards her daughter before bounding towards Persephone, dagger in hand. Fully prepared to end her very existence. Yet the moment she was about to strike down her daughter,Persephone's head shot up. Eyes wide bearing the symbol of geass as a destructive force pushed M2 away from the group. M2 stared in utter disbelief as what appeared to be an apparition of a man she knew all too well. The man wrapped his arms protectively around Lucia,Persephone and his son. M2 seething with rage glared towards the man who held a confident smirk on his face. "Lelouch."M2 spat angrily as Lelouch couldn't help but to smile. "What the matter M2? Scared?" Lelouch mocked with a smirk.

This was the beginning of the end. Would Persephone be able to use her geass to save her lover and the world? Or would she fail and M2 become the ruler of this chaos driven world?
