No,
Silence coated my mind as his heartbeat faltered and ceased in my head.
No,
My connection to him was dead.
No!
An overwhelming sense of loss crushed me to my knees, and forced my face to the muddy earth.
No, no, no no
Pain filled me with every heart beat, like a dagger, stabbing me to the hilt and twisting over and over again. Make it stop. Please.
"NOOOOOOO" My screeching wail emphasised the truth. He was dead.
I want to die.
The assassin craved her own death

Emotion coursed through me like electric currents. I had to find him before it was over. Our minds and souls were separated, but i could still smell his woody trail. Tears poured down my cheeks blinding me as i tried to find up from down. Stumbling onto my feet, I trampled through the corpses of alexanders followers and mine. I was too numb and lifeless to care if i stood on them. Would they care? I wouldn't. Not without him. Reaching the barrier of trees i broke into a run, i had no second thoughts on what hit me, what i stood on, or in, i would find him.
And thats what i did.

He was in the meadow. Our place. Sobs assaulted me before i even saw
 him. On wobbly feet, i scoured through the long grass until i came to the Centre, "where the grass is shorter and the bluebells bloom," he would grin, spinning me in circles, my bare legs flying through the air. But there he lay, with a lifeless expression on his face, colour fading from his stone cold eyes. I crawled over on my hands and knees in devastation. Angrily wiping the tears from my eyes, i wanted, needed to see him,

"Wake up, please baby, Wake up" i rested my hands on his cool cheek, forehead against his... Our short life together flashed through my eyes. Pointless. To fast, i wanted more time with my love, my everything, him.

"You know, you were about this close to making me believe you were deranged? Honestly, I thought I would have to get some sort of treatment if you touched me.," When I didn't answer, he continued to speak with his deep gravelly tone  "Hey, cave girl, I know you're there." Cave girl? God this guy was overloading my careful balance of rational thought. Below me, twigs snapped. did he leave? I sure hope so. I stopped completely still when I heard the rustling of branches and more movement. He wouldn't. Would he? He was following me up the bloody tree.
Crying into his shoulder, i sobbed, "I'm not finished with you. I still need you. please don't leave me. Please not yet, not now. Please baby, wake up, let me see your eyes, its not our time yet, it cant be. Don't go!"
"Whats this, the baby assassin is scared?" Knox said with mock shock as we waited in the buzzing line for the dragon coaster,
"Im not scared you douche," i said, looking stonily into his dark brown eyes. I was scared to shit, but i would never tell him that. Looking away to anxiously watch the line slowly move down, but it will never be slow enough. I warm solid mass brushed up behind me, shadowing my figure, lips at my ear he whispered huskily, "cave girl, its okay to be scared, i wont hurt you, i promise," reaching down, he wrapped his pinky finger around mine. It was so sweet and comforting and so unfamiliar i couldn't breath. I pulled away.
"Im scared, i need you, i know i never said it before, but i need you, save me Knox, save me. Please" i wailed louder, clutching his ripped, bloody shirt in my fists i curled into his side.
