I'll Be There

          She watched him fall, rivers of red flowing from the heart of their source. Those eyes, so blue looked to her, clouding over in pain, the soul slipping away. He tried to speak, but nothing came out. The last sound made was his life's breath leaving his body, freeing his soul. Blue eyes remained open, their last sight held captive, inside them forever.

Over Mountains
Over Trees
Over Oceans
Over Seas
I'll be there

In a whisper on the wind
On the smile of a new friend
Just think of me
And I'll be there

          She heard it. A cold, dark laughter. He spoke, to her telling her she was the last. All her friends were dead now. He told her what a wonderful meal his fear of dying made. He could live for months on the fear all of their deaths created. Her death and her fear would make his strength complete. His voice chilled her as he told her how sweet her despair tasted over a love that had never truly been born. The feeling she felt mere illusions.

Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
To be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
But I've gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

          Her mind screamed, her heart grieved. Gone were the three who had meant more to her than the all the gold in the world. His sword. She picked it up, but her spirit was shattered. She could summon no blade. She was lost, they were lost to her. Falling to her knees she waited for death, as she couldn't stop the image their deaths. He died for her, he threw himself in front of the one person that could melt his stone heart. The blast killed them both at once, and in each other's arms their souls took flight. She couldn't feel them still with her.

On the edge of a waking dream
Over Rivers
Over Streams
Through Wind and Rain
I'll be there

Across the wide and open sky
Thousands of miles I'd fly
To be with you
I'll be there

          Tears refused to fall, she felt them ready to burst through the dam of pain she felt but they would not come. Her instincts told her to stand and fight, this was not the way to die, but her heart would not let her. He was killed for her. Again she was left alone. This time his soul was free and she could not save him. She wanted to join him, to be with him. Her grief came at last and tears blinded her from the glowing blade forming in her hands.

Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
To be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
But I've gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

          She heard a scream of disbelief and then felt their warmth about her. Through tears she saw the blade formed by the light of their souls. She could here them call to her. "Do not give up." "This isn't the person that I know. She is stronger than this." "I'm still here with you, I told you I'm your protector. I can't leave just yet." She rose to her feet, the blade shining with a brilliance that it could have never had before. She walked toward her enemy raising the sword high above her head and then the end came.

In the breath of a wind that sighs
Oh, there's no need to cry

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

          She could feel them, and the love they all posed. His love was strongest. She opened her eyes and looked to the blue sky above. It was the color of his eyes. She was not afraid as a gentle wind blew through her hair, stirring the locks of fire. She didn't need to cry anymore. She knew it was not an illusion, their love was real.Closing her eyes she let her soul join his. Forever
entwined the love of two souls took flight into the heavens above.
