Aphmau's POV
~•~•~•~•~•~

I had made a small grave for Laurance and had my own little funeral for him. I knew I was the only one in Phoenix Drop but...he deserved a funeral. I stood I front of it and said:

"Laurance...I love you. I know, you know that already but I can't say it enough. I miss you dearly already and I always will. I will join you soon in heaven. I hope you don't miss me too much. If you were here, you would encourage me to not kill myself but...you're not here so...I'm sorry. I want to see you again. Even though your not on this planet, I still believe I can see you again. I will always remember the time we shared. I want to be in your arms again but that can't happen. I'm sorry to end my life like this but I'm gonna have to. I...I love you...Laurance...." I kissed the small gravestone I had made out of a boulder. I carved into the boulder 'Laurance'.

I began to walk away. I glanced back at the grave for the last time.

I walked over to the hill where the two of us sang. The hill looked over the ocean perfectly. I felt...horrible to do this but it felt right at the same time. The ocean below clashed up against the hill violently. Or, maybe that's just what it seemed like. To be honest...I am a bit scared to end my own life. Am I really going to do this? Jump into the ocean and drown myself? Yes, I have to. I don't want to live in this pointless world any longer. I took a few steps back and got prepared to jump.

"I'm sorry..." Those were my last words. I ran towards the end of the cliff and jumped.

And there...I drowned.

Or did I?

I opened my eyes and noticed myself in a white area. Nothing but white going on and on forever. Is this where you go when you die? Must be....

"H-Hello!?" I called.

"Hello, Lady Aphmau." There was a voice from behind me. It sound familiar. I turned around and saw Irene!

"I-Irene! What happened? Last thing I recall was me dying! What am I doing here?"

"Ah, we meet again. You are here because...Aphmau, I couldn't give up on your life. You make a difference in this world. Without you, so many possibilities won't exist and dreams would crumble. So, I used what's left of my power to save you." She said.

"N-No! Please, no! I know, I want to live but...I can't live without the people I love! Levin and Malachi, Garroth...Laurance..." I said.

"Aphmau, dear, do you think I would have you life a miserable life with no one? Please, Aphmau I saved your friends too."

"R-Really!? W-Why would you do such a thing for me..."

"Aphmau, you are like me. If you die, it's like I die. We're connected in a way. Think of it this way, I'm a different version of you. Not completely you but you. It's confusing but...I don't want to give up on my life. By that, I mean yours."

"Irene...thank you so much for all your help and kindness! I will forever cherish you even if you aren't here."

"One more thing, Aphmau, many changes will occur in your life. I beg of you to be prepared for them. Some or bad but most are good. I can see your future, I know everything that will happen in your life and when. However, I have little time left."

"I see...c-can you tell me one thing? A good thing?" Irene flashed a grin at me.

"You'll soon find out the biggest good change in your life. By soon, I mean...hmm...about a month or so? Fairly soon, I believe." I was eager to know what it was.

"Thank you, Irene, again. Take care."

"Goodbye, my dear. And remember to make good decisions and be a good person." And with that, she disappeared. Then so did I.

When I opened my eyes again, I was on the hill that I jumped off of. I stepped away from the edge. Then I heard the most peculiar voice. It was familiar. I spun around to see who it was. Laurance. I ran down the hill to him and he ran to me. We held each other in a tight hug. Tears filled our eyes.

"Laurance! Y-You're alive! I-I can't believe this! I-I...." I was too overwhelmed to talk. Or...maybe it was the fact that I was being squeeze too hard.

"I don't care how confused I am about being alive, but I'm so happy that I am! I'm so glad we're back together." I looked up at him and kissed him on the lips. He kissed me back. Someone interrupted our 'moment' though.

"Aww, I just love you two." It was Cadenza. We pulled away and Laurance ran up to his sister and hugged her tight.

"Cadenza! You're alive! I thought you died to Zane!" 

"Heh, I thought I did too! I'm so confused! I'm just happy to be back." She said.
