Every day, before Red goes home, he drops by the graveyard. Yellow finds it very morbid, and wishes he would stop, but it doesn’t really seem to affect him, so she keeps silent.

Red sighs as he leaves a small bunch of flowers, roses this time, a red so deep they are almost black, and a little pendant, silver feathers on a gold chain.

“I miss you.” He says.

There is no reply, but he does not expect one. He traces the letters cut into the headstone with his fingertips, smiling at the irony.

“Lance… I don’t know what to say. I’m married to Yellow now, and… well, I’m not sure if I’m happy.”

The wind ruffles his dark hair, mussing the spikes further, and he slams his fist into the stone, not bothering to hide the pain as he winces.

“It’s not fair! Why did you have to die? Why couldn’t she have died? You were the better trainer, I know it, so why? What happened?”

Tears run down his cheeks, and he wipes them away angrily, before he stands.

“Someday, I’ll see you again. I just have to believe that…”

He leaves, and behind him, granite glitters, a memorial to a fallen angel.
