Goodness...So many responses to Sorrow. Nothing like a deathfic to bring out the lurkers. And then...so many people once again wanted a sequel exactly like this one... Well, I'm giving it to you guys! Read and Review. After all, you asked for it. Make a poor, lonely author feel good about herself...
Duo stared out the window, unseeing. Sunlight flickered across his shadowed face, yet never seemed to penetrate the darkness that had settled upon his features. His eyes were dead. Completely lifeless to everyone that saw them.
Only one person could revive his lost soul. But she was gone...
He let his eyelids drift closed. Once again, he wondered what it would be like to never be able to open them. He toyed with the thought. His fingers ran over the small blade for the hundredth time.
So easy...
A quick little movement and everything would be over. No more pain. No more of those damn I'm-so-sorry-for-your-loss sympathic people. To hell with them. They don't know! They just do not know anything of my pain. How could they...
She was everything. Every part of me. Hilde....
Did you give up? Don't you know how deep my love for you runs? Did you?
Must I prove myself?
He touched the sharp edge to his skin. Duo let it slip across the surface of the soft flesh lightly. I will come to you, Hilde. We shall never be apart. That is what I want...desire. Let me join you.
For everything, there is an opposing force. One cannot be without the other. Together, they coexist. Light and dark. Black and white.
Life and death.
I am death, he thought solemnly. You were my life. I am nothing without you. Please understand...

Many people gathered in the time of mourning. The remaining Gundam pilots...everyone came as if roughly wakened from deep slumber. In a way, death brought them together again. But sadly, it took such tragic events to make them see clearly about life and how they were wasting it.
They cried on each other's shoulders, grieving for the loss of two very wonderful souls. This day forever marked the end of both their journeys on this Earth, but it let life spring into many forgotten hearts. Once more, people who had enraveled themselves in their jobs, their own presences, realized how lonely a solitary existence can be. They hoped to find happiness. Happiness in someone else's company, just as Duo and Hilde had. This was the beginning...
Together, two soulmates were buried side by side and once again reunited.
THE END
