⚠ spoiler seabound/crystalized vol.2 — TW: death ⚠

he was soaked, and his auburn hair marked drops on the ground, while he began to realize that the worst was coming back again as his no longer Yang passed through his miserable body of flesh and bones

he turned around, despair that was triggered on his expression. he looked at her, he was enchanted by her beauty, but at the same time he was terrified

this new marine form, was not his Nya

of course, they could share the same face, or the same body shape. but that, for him, was nothing more than his worst nightmare that took Nya away from him

"no," he said. trembling, he tried hard, despite having also tried to grab her, so remembered, warm hand.. replaced by water and only water

the panic, seeing that nothing worked, and seeing her continue to walk quietly on her way, made him panic. his body acted for itself by now, so that the words would come out without his command from his mouth

"don't leave me!" his voice trembled, and his hands took refuge towards his chest, themselves trembling with fear

Nya's expression changed, from serenity to compassion, something that made him understand, in her eyes, that she had already gone

he looked at her surprised, noticing how she was taking steps back, towards him

he followed her movements, as she extended her hand to gently place it over his freckled cheek

it was a nostalgic feeling, spontaneously carrying the memory of dying Nya in his arms, as she rushed to bring her hand to the same spot

her hand once again wet his gi, dropping countless drops on it, but that was not what mattered to him at this time

he had to get her back

as he had managed to save her the other times, he could even now

but this was not what he expected to come in the future. being also something a bit difficult to save now

she had a smile of pity. although even if she tried, she no longer knew who was the guy she once called the guy with the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen..

once Jay was feeling a modicum of relief in her touch, she broke away from him, leaving his hands cold and wet

before he could blink, she was again walking towards the end of the roof

chasing her so-called destiny

but he didn't want to. he didn't want to and never wanted to

she was literally leaving her family behind. no second thoughts, no kind of farewell to his brother or to him. a simple smile, which hid the desire to disappear among the infinite ocean in front of them

"Nya! I-" his tongue refused to do his job, knowing that once said, she would go away earlier "I love you" but he wanted her to know, despite the countless times he had told Nya randomly between the various speeches, or even before going to sleep, like a goodnight

a very normal routine that he would have loved to continue until the end of his days

but apparently, the power of the abyss, prevented the couple from living a normal life

with all his heart he would do anything to prevent her from leaving, but it seemed impossible..

Jay watched her form move with every step, until the whole world seemed as if it had stopped
