STILL ALIVE

Xaden watched in horror as she dropped down to the ground.

He just looked down at her in horror, unable to even utter a single word.

And then it hit him.

It was like everywhere became faint, like he wasn't hearing anything at all.

It became a daze all in slow motion, and yet it was all happening too fast.

He set Aurora's body aside and went to Jasmine.

By the time he grabbed her and set her on his thighs, it was like it all hit him, and everything came flashing hard on him.

"Jasmine." He said. "Jasmine, wake up."

He rubbed her cheek and held her close up to him.

Her eyelids were dropping in half.

They were blinking open and then closing.

"Yes, stay with him." He said. "Stay with me."

She was just looking up at him, and then they started to close back.

"No, no, " he said, shaking her. "Stay with me, Jasmine. Stay with me."
