To take that step, to stand with boldness in that sacred place, to stare dead into the eyes of those gods who brought forth creation, to command them and create anew what they neglected...

To continue, to leave the world of suffering and violence behind, to live entirely in peace for all of time...

It was over. That world still existed but it no longer mattered, my final impression of it that scream she let out ringing in my ears.

That was what I left behind. That anguish, that emotion, that cold grip.

To them, from that world, my story ended on that day. The gateway closed and I departed and that closed that chapter, that volume.

They mourned, no doubt, and resigned themselves to a world where I had died, gone, never to be seen again.

Their stories are written, passive tense. They live and will die and will decay and will be forgotten.

Yet I have become my own author and pen my own life. I will decide my plot, and will continue on for eternity as I deem fit.

Though they will forget me in time, in that sinful world, it is unimportant.

In silence, I go on.

Animeverse Cyrus, a year after he stepped into the portal and left the world.

Or I wrote it a year after that episode aired anyway. I suppose he'd have lost track of time by this point.

I always hoped he found what he was looking for.

Done for a PokePrompts challenge on LJ.

In as much of a sense as drifting for eternity can be "lovely", I suppose.

That sounds relaxing and unnerving at the same time. xD;;;

It probably is. One of the most disturbing things about that episode was that it was strongly hinted at that he got what he'd been after all along.

Although I also got the impression that he only went in because otherwise he would have been arrested. It's sort of a two-way street.

I never was able to the episode, but I'll probably go Youtube it. He never was a social person. Or maybe he was but others around him didn't recognize his way of expressing.

Of all the villains in pokemon, he lands almost at the top because he really goes all out on trying to achieve his goal...

In the games it's curious. He's repelled by people but seems to crave respect and adoration. On the show he just seems to hate the world so much that he wants out of it...so he does what he says flat out in the games he'd never do--"go off somewhere alone". In the games he says that this would basically be counterproductive because he wants to bring his justice to the entire world/universe (ever notice that he seems to use those terms interchangably?).
