"Chase...?"

Puddles of vital crimson liquid spilled onto the dirty ground, tainting the bronze soil a rusty copper. The steady drip-drip-drip seemed to be the only constant, and yet time had slowed down to a snails pace, as if to accommodate the two beings twined together in a tight embrace, to give them just a few more moments. The everlord choked back a frantic sob at his loves quiet, agonized voice slipping between his soft, full lips, stained red with his own blood. He only clutched harder at the thin, wilting body, gloved hands trying frantically to stem the flow of blood that spilled heavily from the redhead's side, where a deep gash cut into the gap between his ribs. Obviously, a lung had been punctured, as the young genius coughed up copious amounts of the life-giving fluid.

"Y-yes, Jack?"

The youth frowned in hazy confusion at the gaping wound on his body, and asked, "Is it suppose to hurt this much?"

This time, the immortal failed to silence himself, and a small sob escaped his chest. Jack looked up at the man he had given his heart to, his crimson eyes pained, and at the same time, loving.

Chase covered the wound with his hand, trying to ignore the tiny whimper that escaped the boy on his lap, and let the numbing Heylin magic radiate from his palm. He thought, hysterically, this was one drawback to being evil that almost made him wish he had stayed on the side of the Xiaolin. They had healing white magic - good magic, while he only had the dark Heylin magic. And while the Heylin could numb the pain, it could do nothing to heal his love as he watched him slip into nothingness. Never the less, Jack sighed in relief as the debilitating pain of his body was whipped away by his lover's hand.

"Better?" he whispered, desperate to at least make his love’s... last... moments comfortable. The youth didn't confirm, but raised clearer eyes to the everlord, and following them, a deathly pale hand raised weakly into the air, and flopped sloppily against a sharp cheekbone. Chases own hand came to hold the appendage in place, and he finally let the tears that had been gathering slowly in his grief-stricken golden eyes to drip down his face, onto their joined hands. The teen only smiled sadly up at him, and whispered back to him in a barely audible voice, "I have never been better than I am when you are near me, love."

"God, Jack..." the dragon began to shake, crushing the other to his chest, who, thanks to the spell, couldn't feel the pain accompanying the gesture. He only clutched back with his fading strength, and shook his head.

"No, love... listen to me. I have never love any being on this earth as deeply as I have loved you... you were the shining light in a dark world, and I love... love... love you." he smiled a bloodstained smile, "And I will continue to love you to the ends of time."

"Jack... Jack, my love... wait for me. Please, on the other side, wait for me. I will stop taking the potion. I will join you in eternity." the dragon lord promised determinedly.

Jack chuckled with genuine humor, causing a trickle of blood to leak out of the side of his mouth. His lips were turning blue. He gasped out,

"This is where... I'm supposed t-to convince you... to live on... but I know you would n-not obey. Truthfully, I wouldn't... want you to. You...you have lived an eternity in life, alone, Chase Young. Now, you can spend an eternity in death with me. Come to me quickly, ai ren."

"Jack Spicer, I will follow you to infinity. Wo ai ne."

Jack looked deeply into his eternal love's golden eyes, his own finally peaceful. He drew one last rattling breath, gave his most beautiful smile, and slipped away.

I don’t know where this came from… I wrote it a few months ago in a fit of muse (I know, why can’t it have come for TPC or something?). I have eternal affection for Chack, and so this was born. I just really love the idea of their ‘eternal love’, call me corny if you wish.

As always, reviews are appreciated, criticism welcome and flames ignored.

Sensibly,
