I fall to my knees as Raphael twists the silver tipped stake he has lodged into my back. I look up at Shawn as I cough up blood.

"Won't be healing any time soon," Raphael growls in my ear before he yanks the wooden and silver stake out of my back. I gasp for breath as intense pain fills my chest, caused by my heart not being able to beat correctly.

"Siva," Shawn says as she gets on her knees next to me. I don't speak as I fall on my back. I feel myself shaking as she puts a hand on my chest.

"Tell the kids... I love them," I mutter to Shawn before I pull her down and press my lips to hers one last time.

"No, Siva. Don't say that. Y-you're going to be okay," she says as she grabs my larger hand with her smaller, bloody hand. A tear drops down her cheek. I brush it away and put my hand on her cheek. She leans into it a little making me smile slightly before I just can't breath anymore and everything goes dark.

Never thought I'd die this way.
