It's raining.I'm leaning against Elusive,crying my eyes out as he holds onto my shoulder,staring into nothing.A.J. stands across from us,head bowed,his face hidden behind his stetson.Bubble Berry is on his knees next to him bawling to the clouded heavens.Dusk stands alone across the from a gravestone,tears rolling down his cheeks.Blitz lays peacefully in his flame-streaked,transparent coffin in between all of us and in the ground.He seems as if he is only asleep,ready to wake up and hug me close to him...Though I know he won’t...We all know he won’t..Dusk had tried as hard as he could to keep him alive...But in the end,Blitz had lost too much blood and he didn’t have time for a blood transfusion.So many of his bones had been broken and his organs damaged.I had offered to give everything to him,including my heart,to save him,the one I loved...But Dusk said that,even if it worked,as soon as Blitz found out that his betrothed had given his life,he wouldn’t want to live anymore because he would miss me too much.After Dusk called the time of death,I had run home and attempted suicide...Bubble Berry reached my house in time to cut me loose from the rafters as I blacked out from lack of oxygen.Later that night,Elusive came by and held me in his arms as I cried myself asleep and stayed with me for the rest of the night.Today is the day...And it hurts so much.As we watch the coffin descend fully into the ground,surrounded by a purple aura,I remember the day before he died…

It’s a sunny day.The birds are chirping and there is a small,cool breeze blowing.I’m sitting at a table at a small restaurant in town.Blitz comes walking up and stops in front of me.
“You mind if I join?”
“Of course not! Take a seat...If you want to…”
He stood there for a second then he scratched at the back of his neck.
“Actually...Butterscotch...I’ve you know I’ve never really been a big romantic..But...Ahh..To hell with it,” he dropped to one knee and my mouth just about hit the ground.
“Will you marry me?”
I just sat there for a couple of seconds then excitedly said “Yes!Of course!!
Who knew that you could be happy and joyous one day then completely devastated the next…
I guess I just wasn’t meant to be happy...
