PROMPT THIRTY-SIX: Death

Faith felt her die. She was lying in her cell staring at the bottom of the bunk atop of hers and suddenly a pain ripped through her chest and then nothing.

Faith had never felt so alone in her entire life.

She hoped that in death Buffy would find some peace but she knew that she would never find it. Now that she would never be able to tell Buffy just how sorry she was.

She felt lonely in her dreams, knowing that the Buffy in them was now nothing more than a memory and that the two of them would never again meet in her subconscious.

She had stayed in prison for Buffy; everything she did was for Buffy. But Buffy was gone and Faith had no purpose. She missed Buffy, she needed Buffy, she may not have seen Buffy for over two years but she’d always felt her there. That feeling was gone and she needed to get it back.

She can feel it now, her life draining away but she is not scared because soon she will feel her again. Soon she will not be alone. In death she will find her purpose. She will find her other half.
