Sake of another


They'd always ask each other,
"Who wants to end that loser's life?"
I would pretend as if I had never heard a thing,
and just walk away from them.
I'd always ask the Lord,
"I'll live on for at least a few more days,won't I?"
When I came home that one night,
a knock came upon my door.
I opened it to find a man in need of help.
Few moments later,
as I tended to his wounds,
he said to the Heavens above,
"Lord,I can't come with you,tonight.
If I do,my own priorities will have been
in vain.
I can't let her die,Lord!
I gave my soul
my word
that I shall fight
for this kind and loving soul
until I fufill my promise to her
from long ago!And,that means to be there for her
for always and forever more!"
I honestly had never heard something like this
before...
I was already on the verge of shedding tears
for I knew that he,too,had understood my fears...
Then,we heard my back windows breaking.
Then I knew what was coming
for my heart was aching.
I had my father's gun in one hand,
and my mother's dagger in the other.
I thought,"Now is the time to avenge my long lost lover.
When the villain appeared,I stood there,
ready to fight.
When he went to draw his gun,
mine went off with flurries of light.
And when I saw he had survived,
I said,"Oh no..."
and looked for a place to hide.
Finally when I thought that this would be the end,
The man from long ago began to bend
the battle tide in my favor,once again.
I spurred into the moment,stabbing the villain,
again and again.
And before he died,
I only said,"Never again
shall you harm us.Not even at the end..."
Since then,Zoramonos and I have been finally able to be more than friends...And the best part,those people now ask each other,"What urges her to fight for others?"
(So now I ask you,"What urges you to fight for the sake of another...?" wink
