"he got himself killed... He finally got himself killed..."
[b]john repeats to himself, he sits in his wooden cabin and dons the mask of his predecessors. He picks up the corpse and walks toward the pit in the center of the town. He throws the corpse in to the Hole and covers it in lighter fluid, finally setting it ablaze.[/b]
"See you on the day of the dead, brother..."
[b]he speaks to the Shepards over an intercom the next day[/b]
"as you have likely heard... Shepard aka, Lucas, has been killed by one of the few remaining fear mongers. I, being next of kin, and at his request, have been appointed as the new king of the Shepards..."
[b]he lays back on a torn and nearly ruined couch and turns on a TV, trying to take his mind off of what the hell had just gone down.[/b]

"Didn't you say you where the last one?"
-
"The closest would be Thabolia, but they already have it, I can feel one on Corra and Ashuna though."
-
".... You know what I'm gonna have to do to get it..." [b]he removes the mask and takes the knife, now with three red streaks across the hilt and tosses them to Tara[/b] "'make sure Wheatley gets those... Your gonna have to train him aswell, and this may be our final goodbye Tara..." [spoiler]am I gonna kill him or naht...[/spoiler]

She looks at the knife. "I can track him, tell you which one is safe."
-
"I can assure you none of them are. That demon worshipper guy will find me... And likely strike me down."
-
She clenches her fist around the knife. "It just ISN'T FAIR!" She throws it down. "EVERYONE I LOVE DIES! ALWAYS!" Tears stream down her face.
-
[b]he wipes the tear from her face[/b] "I'm sorry... It's for your benefit, but before I go, I have atleast one last question..."
-
"What?" She asks weakly.
-
"Will you raise poor Wheatley when I'm... Gone?" [b]he motions to the now crying child at his side[/b]
-
She looks at Wheatley and smiles sadly. "Yes, I will John." She hugs him.
-
[b]he hugs Tara and kisses her[/b] "I'll be off now... Under the small circumstance I survive, don't expect to be alone again.... Ever [b]he smirks and begins to walks toward the hangar, Wheatley cries[/b]
-
Tara hugs Wheatley, also crying.
-
[i]"w-why does he throw himself at death?"[/i]
-
"Because he loves us, and love is a wonderful, horrible thing."
-
"[i]im sorry, miss... You seemed to be a good friend of his[/i]"
-
She smiles sadly. "You could say that, now come on." She leads him to the cockpit.
-
[b]he follows, wiping a tear from his faces d coming back to his senses[/b] "What are you..."
-
"I'm an Astral, the last one actually."
-
"I'm the last wisp... Now."
-
A tear falls from her face as they reach the cockpit.

-
She simply puts her finger to her lips as she sits in the pilot chair. "Sit Wheatley."
-
[b]he just stands next to the chair[/b] "Why are you so... Emotionally invested in him? What did he do to earn your trust?"
-
"He's Lucas' clone, and I suppose somewhere I fell for him. Now sit down, things are about to get fast."
-
[b]he grabs onto the door frame and nods toward you [/b]
