"Cheatin? Sarah, ya know me better an that." He sounds genuinely offended that she'd even think that.
-
"Then. What. Are. You. HIDING!" She asked.
-
"The Traveler spoke to us." Wisp replies.
-
"Wait... [i]WHAT?![/i]"
-
"You heard me. The Traveler spoke to us. And it wasn't g-" "Apparently it wants me ta lead a war an reclaim earth."
-
"Do you mind if I call you Joan of Arc because of that?" She asked.
-
"Please don't. I'd rather naw think o' what happened ta her." He sighs, leaning on the railing.
-
"That's my point... I'm afraid it'll happen to you... or maybe you might have a worse fate. I just can't stand to think about the thought of my life without you."
-
"I ain't plannin ta die any time soon, Lady Warlock." He smiles slightly.
-
"That's the thing... no one plans to die. It always strikes when least expect it."
-
He sighs. "Your right."
-
"Please don't go through with it..." She begged.
-
"Sarah, if it means givin' the City a chance... I can't pass this up."
-
"Fionn... don't... please. I'll die if I wake up to find you gone."
-
Fionn takes her hands in his. "Sarah, I swear I won't die on you, not permanently. But I'm still a Guardian. I can't in good conscious turn this down."
-
"I... I understand. But if I hear that you're dead..." She pauses.
-
"You won't." He says, smiling.
-
She closed her eyes, and leaned in for a kiss.
-
He leans in as well, gently kissing her.
-
After a few seconds she pulls back, "I love you, Fionn."
-
"I love you too, Sarah. And I swear I won't leave ya, not fer anything." He replies.
-
"I don't want you to do this..."
-
"All honesty, I don't want to do this. But if it saves the planet... I can't turn it down."
-
Tears glisten in her eyes.
-
He looks down, not wanting to see her cry. "Hey, I've made it this far, an' this time I've got you ta keep me from doin something stupid. That's gotta count fer somethin."
