Fan Fiction ❯ Harlequin's Goodbye ❯ Last Wish ( Chapter 1 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Serge was walking along Opassa Beach waiting for Leena to arrive.
'Where is she?' He thought to himself. 'She should have been here an hour ago.' He started to wonder whether Leena
would come or not when he heard a voice behind him.
"Are you looking for someone?" A woman's voice questioned. Serge spun around to face the person who spoke, ready
for battle. He sighed wearily.
"Won't you ever learn Harlequin? I don't care for you, I only care about Leena. Haven't we been through this
before about Leena and Kid?" Serge said annoyed, but paused for a brief moment, with a look of pain on his face when he said
Kid's name, but snapped out of it.
"But mon Serge, I love you so much!" She confessed, spinning in the air. Poor Harlequin would never understand the
love between Serge and Leena, nor would she ever know about the hardships that he has gone throughout his life after battle.
At least not yet...All that Harlequin wanted was Serge's love, nothing more. Why couldn't he understand and see that?
"Harle, why don't you just give up?" He snapped at her. "I will never love you. You may love me, but I just can't
return that same love to you, domo sumimasen." He continued sadly. (a/n: domo sumimasen means 'I am very sorry' ^_^). "Please
leave before Leena arrives and gets the wrong idea about us.
Harlequin was hurt. What did he mean that he could never love her? And why would it be such a big deal if Leena
saw them together? Was Serge trying to hide or keep something from her? She looked at Serge with tears that were begging to
fall from her eyes.
"If zat is how you feel about moi, then I will leave." She said sadly. "But do moi a favor-don't stay with that tramp
Leena. She will use you and then break your heart and I don't want to see you go through that. Kiniiru, Serge, for moi? That is
the only thing that I am asking of you." She asked, silently pleading in her mind that he would agree to her request and rest
assure her conscience. (a/n: Kiniiru=Please ^_^)
Serge stared at her dumbfoundedly. Was she asking him to give up his love for Leena? She was and he was not happy.
How dare she ask him to do such a thing! She was in for it now!
"Excuse me?! Are you asking me to give up the love of my life?" He yelled at her."I think you are and if you think that
I'll agree to your request, then you've got another thing coming!"
She stood there staring at him with blank, tear-filled eyes. She couldn't believe that his response would be so vulgar.
He didn't even take her request into consideration-he just yelled at her and blew the whole thing off, along with her hopes. She
decided that she would just leave him alone because she knew that he was speaking the truth-he would never love her in return.
She also decided on comitting suicide, for she had nothing more to live for: Lynx, her former master, was killed by Serge, her
family was angry and dissappointed with her because she joined forces with the evil, murderous neko youkai by the name of
Lynx and would never accept her back into their household ever again, she had no hopes of another occupation or family and
now the only person that she loves, the one that just so happened to be keeping her alive and make her want to keep living,
wanted nothing to do with her. (a/n: Being the nice youkai...I mean...person ¬.¬ that I am, neko=cat & youkai=demon. cat+demon=
cat demon! ^_^)
"Well, zen I guess I will let you live you happy life zen. As for moi, I am leaving this world permanently..." She said
quietly. She turned her back to him slowly, tears leaking from her eyes.
"Wait! What do you mean 'leaving this world permanently'?" He replied. He hoped that she didn't mean suicide.
Maybe she was just going to live in another demension or planet or something like that. Yeah, that's it...at least, that's what he
hoped she meant.
"Are you really that idiotic, Monsieur Serge?" She snapped angrily, still facing away from him. She couldn't believe
how much of a dumbass he was being! What happened to him? He used to be a loving, caring, INTELLIGENT person. Did all that
fighting and bloodshed go to his head and annihilate his brain cells? How could he not know what she was talking about?! When
he continued to stare at her with a blank expression on his face, she screamed out her reply. "Suicide, you jackass!" She
couldn't take it anymore, the last ounce of strength that she had left that was preventing her from breaking down burst. She
sank to her knees and started to sob uncontrollably. The area was silent accept the sounds of Harlequin crying and the ocean's
waves hitting and washing up on the shore.
Serge was stunned. Why would she even think of anything like that? Was it really such a big deal that he didn't love
her? He had to admit, she was a beautiful girl, but he had never really found any love for her within himself. Maybe because
he had never really gotten to know her, but was this issue such a big deal that she was going to kill herself.
Ever since that fateful day that Kid commited suicide, Serge could only rely on Leena to help him stay alive. Hadn't
the Record of Fate tortured him enough? Putting him through so much pain and so many people hating him? Making him not even
existent in the world because he had drowned at the young age of seven? Making the people on the island of Archipelago
think that he was there to kill everyone and that he was some kind of evil curse? And now it was going to take away another
person out of his life? He COULD NOT let this happen. He HAD to prevent this from happening AT ALL.
"Why? For what reason do you think that your life is not worth living?" Serge questioned Harlequin.
She stopped staring momentarily and looked up at Serge. She NOW couldn't believe how stupid he was being. Maybe
he was HOPING that she would commit suicide so that she would leave him alone. If that was his wish, then it would most
definatly be granted. If not, she didn't care what he said, she was going to die TODAY, no ifs', ands, or buts about it.
"Can you not see that moi is in love with you? And you just happened to reply to my love by saying that you could
never love moi in return. You were the only thing that I had left in my life and now that that's gone, what is the point of moi
even existing? To sit and watch you and that slut, Leena, makeout, do it, get married, have kids and then live a wonderful life?
No, I refuse to live like that. THAT is my reason." She replied, turning her back to him once again and slowly walking away,
starting to use her magic to transport her to a place where no one could bother her. "Goodbye, Serge. I love you but I guess
that you just couldn't return my love, could you? Have a beautiful, prosperous, successful, and last but not least, happy life."
With that said, she faded away, leaving Serge to stand on the beach, trying to take in all of what had just happened. He
couldn't believe it, Harlequin was actually going to commit suicide. Was this all a dream? If it is, he wanted to wake up right
now.
