He looked like a ghost.

With a pale face and haunted eyes that seemed to have seen the worst the world had to offer, he was the very embodiment of what humans call a ghost.

His cracked and dehydrated lips strived to form words. "Madeline..." He whispered hoarsely, "Darius....."

A man wearing a white doctor's coat was standing in front of him. He leaned forward and said, softly, "What about them, Arthur?" Arthur's eyes flicked around the room as if he was looking for someone. His face contorted as he struggled to form words. After a few moments, he finally said, "Tell them....tell them I'm sorry."

Sympathy softened the doctor's features, but he remained silent. Arthur saw his expression, and felt a strange nausea beginning to creep over him. "Are they...okay?" Arthur rasped. The doctor sighed and shook his head. After a moment he said, "I'm sorry."

"No...." He whispered, "Please...." The world was beginning to swirl around him. Slowly at first, and then faster. The universe continued to spin, and he finally surrendered to oblivion.
