“Promise me.” Lance hissed.

“I promise.” Charlotte said. “Are you certain?”

“I cannot carry the pain any longer. It's tearing me apart.” The Dragon Master shook his head. “I cannot concentrate on my duty, and without that, I have nothing left.”

Lance sighed and closed his eyes. It didn't hurt, not even when she slit his throat. When she finished, she laid his body in the coffin of crystal his Father had prepared, and went flying to avoid her grief.

The next morning, Ash gaped at the headlines of the Daily Kantonian.

“He's… dead?”

The paper dropped from nerveless fingers, and he crumpled forwards in a dead faint.
