Tears rolled down his face as her limp cold body rests in his arms. With no hands free to wipe his tears, he stood up carrying her dead corpse back to his camp. Jag was in shock, almost incapable of gathering his feelings, or even think. [color=00aeef][i]'What do I even do now?'[/i][/color] He thought, as he advanced towards camp. [color=00aeef][i]'Is this even worth it? Why didn't I even think for a second that this could've gone wrong. She's dead because of me.'[/i][/color] His heart just jumped, it felt like it was being stabbed. His throat felt so tight, he almost couldn't breathe. The muscles almost hurt it was so bad. Camp finally came in sight. On the perimeter of a forest, barely inside the forest. It was a mountainous area, but full of green and very humid. Life bloomed everywhere, the green on the plants almost shined, it seemed. Finally entering the camp he sat her on the ground, by a tree a few feet away from the fireplace. He went the opposite side of her. A campfire was between them now, the coals still hot from last night. The sun was starting to set, and he was exhausted. [color=00aeef][i]'I'll burn her body tomorrow.'[/i][/color] He thought as he stared at what she used to be. [color=00aeef][i]'What did that fuckin' witch say anyway? That I'll be cursed to watch her die for an eternity? What a bunch of nonsense. I'll find a way to kill her.'[/i][/color] He clenched his fist tightly, while gritting his teeth. He hasn't felt hatred towards somebody like this ever, it almost felt wrong. He shook his head after moment of cooling down. Jag got up, [color=00aeef][i]'I need to get some firewood before it gets too dark.'[/i][/color] He thought, walking towards a small pile that he had made the previous day. He stacked the wood in the fireplace, taking the whole pile, then went to gather new firewood. Shortly after he came back and lit the fire. He put his hands out, warming them up. He glanced at Seraphina by accident, and his heart dropped. [color=00aeef][i]'She's dead cause of me. It's all my fault. What's even worse is, her soul is cursed forever, to die. A pain a soul shouldn't have to feel over and over again. She should be able to move on, or be able to live with me.'[/i][/color] He grew angry, but calmed down after a minute. His emotions were everywhere. He almost just wanted to die. Tears crawled down his face as he laid on his bed. His eyelids lay shut while tears still found a way out. Blackness slowly starts taking over as his consciousness fades, slowly falling asleep while crying.[hr]As the sun rises and peaks over the distant mountains, the rays pierce the leaves of the forest, bringing about a very vivid color. He wipes away some dried up tears, rubbing eyes. He blinks a few times, not ready for another day. It was so strange, he still wasn't used to Seraphina being gone. His mood quickly declined into a worse mood. He looks over at Seraphina's stiff cold body. He sighs and looks down. He gets up from his bed, beginning to gather wood. After about 30 minutes or so, he builds up a big pile of wood. [color=00aeef][i]'Alright..Let's do this.'[/i][/color] He thought as he inched towards his soulmates dead corpse. He wanted to puke, something so beautiful was taken away from him in the worst possible way. Jag picks her up. Her body so stiff, she didn't even move. He could feel the stiffness in her joints, turning his stomach. He walks over to the his stack of wood, setting her on top. [color=00aeef][i]'I'm sorry I was so stupid. I love you, and nothing will change that. If you're in the afterlife thinking that I'm stupid and you don't love me anymore, I understand. I did kill you. It is my fault.'[/i][/color] He thought, almost saying a final goodbye to her, accepting her fate, and his as well. He lit a torch, then set the pile of wood on fire in different spots. His eyes stared into the flames as the sun rose. [color=00aeef][i]'Bye baby.'[/i][/color] He thought as he turned around, heading towards his bedroll. He started packing up camp. [color=00aeef][i]'I can't stay here, and I really don't want too. Not for another minute.'[/i][/color] He thought, picking up the pace a little more. He stood at the edge of the campfire, taking a 360 degree turn, seeing if he missed anything to get. It seemed like everything was taken care of. A frown appeared on his face, then he became saddened, weakly walking away from his soulmates graveyard. [color=00aeef][i]'I don't know where to go, so I'll just let my feet take me.'[/i][/color] He thought, walking aimlessly southeast.
