The Little Child Left Behind...
-----
Between cries of sorrow, Drake saw the System's body flash the brightest, as if she had become a supernova. He extended his hand towards her, trying to stop her, but he could not. His hand slowly broke apart, as a small piece of himself was suddenly absorbed into the engulfing light. And for a faint few seconds, he saw as that piece merged with another small piece of the System, a glowing orb was formed, glistening with strange light, and flying towards him, fusing into his chest…
"Take her…" Whispered the System for the last time. "She's… our child."
Before Drake could even say a single thing, he saw the entire space tear itself apart, as it was consumed by billions of pixels. He saw the information of all his stats, skills, and more deconstructing themselves. The entire process was agonizingly painful for him as well, as he continued to scream in pain.
