Forever (Len x Reader)

XXVII: Final Goodbye

A/N: Y'all wrong.

Len's P.O.V

Just a little bit more. Just a little bit more and I can reach the crystal.

"You are brave so you deserve the truth."

"What?"

"If you destroy the crystal on my chest, Y/N and me will perish."

What does it mean? No, it must be lying.

"I do not lie." It continued.

"There's no way, that thing is only to restrain you." Anastasia said.

"That's where you're wrong. Have you ever thought why Ares was so careful with your crystal?" Anastasia gasped.

"That's right." It smirked.

"Oh no!"

It went for one slash and I was thrown to the back. I winced in pain. I stayed there for a while without being able to speak for a while.

"Historia...." I called out weakly. She came to me.

"It.... Must be lying... The plan, doesn't change... Destroy the crystal..!"

I saw Historia hesitate but she still nodded.

Historia's P.O.V

"Len's words are absolute. It's time we end you now."

I stared at it for a very long time until I quickly got in front. I was too fast for it to see.

With one slice, I reached the crystal. I pressed on to break it. The Singularity can't do anything with the crystal being like that. It can't move. Just a little bit more. I continued to put my knife through it. Just one piece more. I continued to push.

Finally, it broke.

I hear it giving out a scream and the body was fading away into dust.

"You'll pay for this!" It screamed as the voice fades.

A figure appears from the dust. Her eyes were shut close and her hair blows in the wind. It was Y/N

Why was her sign of life, so faint?

I saw Len rushing to Y/N's side and held her in his arms.

Len's P.O.V

Y/N, so beautiful like I remembered. Her eyes were tightly shut. Slowly, it started to open. Her f/c coloured orbs stared directly at mine as it let out a small laughter.

"...L-Len..." She weakly called out.

"Y/N, you're okay!"

"I-I'm sorry..." She apologised as she placed a hand on my cheek.

"Please, don't say that. You're going to be fine!" I desperately tried to encourage her.

She took a deep breath as if trying to sing something. She did. It seemed to be the end of the song.

Oh, tomorrow...
Will not ever come. As I will leave 
And I must travel far beyond
To places yet unseen.

Remember me…
And treasure everyday
Even come what may, forget not the precious gift of love I pray

"No, no...! Y/N, what are you saying?" A single tear rolled down my cheeks. I saw her body as it started to turn translucent.

"I-I.... Don't want to regret anything else... There's something... I still.... Haven't told you yet..."

She took another deep breath and started to sing.

Oh just to live my life again
To treasure every little moment then.
Satisfied… I'd leave you all behind accepting of my fate.

But I am full of grief
To leave this life so incomplete
My dream is coming to the end.

S

he looked at me as she smiled. Tears were bursting out of my eyes as I could do nothing but cry. Her hand touches my face again. Her body becomes translucent.

"I... love you... Len..."

"I love you too so please! Don't go!" I called out.

"Len... where... are you? It's.... suddenly... dark here." She weakly reached out her hands as it grew darker.

"I'm here." I shout and tried to reach for her hand only for it to pass through.

"I see... I'm glad..."

She said, before she disappeared completely. My eyes widened. No, this can't be happening. I reached out for the dust that goes to the sky. I tried to grab them until I couldn't anymore. It has disappeared.

"No, no way..."

I felt someone's hand touching my shoulder. She pulled me and placed my head on her shoulder. It was Historia. They were all crying. Even through my blurred vision I could see. They were all crying. Y/N has left this world. Left the people who loved her a lot. Left me. Left my side.

Y/N is gone and will never come back.

There was nothing I could do about it. I let out a pained scream as I cried. I didn't care about how loud I was. I just cried. I was so heartbroken. My tears that resembled tears of defeat and loss. Nothing was won because I've lost Y/N.

-

However, that was a week ago. Now, we're all busy scurrying around the castle trying to formulate a plan to rebuild the city and the world. After the fall of The Oracle. People woke up to their senses and they were taken into custody. Some admitted to following of their own will and some were forced to. They can't lie since there was a lying detector. The detector is strong enough so I bothered not to care about the the number of people lying.

The damages done to the city was rebuilt although the lives lost cannot be compensated. No world was reset. We defeated The Singularity.

Y/N had taken her last breath last week. It feels so empty around here without her smile, her voice calling out my name, her scent, her hair blowing in the wind and the vows we would make. Although they forever stay in my heart, not being able to see her here will ever create a hole in my heart. Nothing can fill up this emptiness. Although I come out and smile, I miss her at every minute, every second of the days that pass by. Not one day had come where she left the corners of my mind. Sometimes, I look around, hoping to see her still alive but she isn't around.

Knowing that, makes me fall to my knees again as uncontrollable tears fall from my eyes and I sniffed. I know very well Y/N would hate to see me like this however, I would like to remain like this for a while. There's no way I could stand up and look so fine even though I feel like dying. I feel so sad and so weak. I feel like no one out there could help me out. I feel like going back out there to find fragments of her but it's been a week. A week and I still am unable to find her fragments.

"That was your goodbye right...?" I muttered to myself.

Suddenly, someone barged into my room.

"Len-sama, please forgive us but you need to see this." A worker announced, panicking and desperate.

A/N: Yep, you died. The sad factor is probably not emphasised well but hey, if you still cried over it then I'm glad. After this chapter, there will be a lot of after stories but it won't be very wordy, don't worry.

See you tomorrow if I'm not tired? I kind of need a break real badly so I was planning to rest tomorrow but, it depends too kek.
