Drabble: "Destruction I"
Paring: Connor/Abby
Rating: PG
Summary: Time is up. (Part II is on my journal, and is Becker/Jess)
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
- Robert Frost -
He takes a deep breath, choking as burning ash fills his lungs and searches out with bloody hands for his wife, closing his weary eyes in relief when she whispers his name.
He pulls her body close to him, kissing her for what may be the final time and a single tear runs down her bruised cheek. They whisper shared words of love and step out to face the destruction.
The whole planet is falling apart around them.
People are dying and there is nothing any of them can do now.
Time is up and they only have each other.
