Malkiel steps into white eternity.
She feels complete.
Around her, the already known territory extends infinitely pristine.
But it's different this time.
Because she knows what else is out there.
Finally, finally.
She caresses one of her white and golden wings with the tip of her fingers.
She's truly there.
A part of her misses her friends, but it's not a bitter feeling.
It's a feeling of hope, of excitement.
Like waiting for a flower to blossom.
Like waiting for the sun to rise.
After all, her friends will get there as well someday and she'll be allowed to visit them.
She can wait an eternity to hear them laugh again.
She moves her feet, but she's somehow floating.
Everything is light, pure.
Around her, Guardians greet her amiably.
Malkiel greets back, happy.
It would be perfect...she thinks.
But she can't think for much longer, because a melodic voice calls her name from behind.
She feels a warmth in her heart.
"Lisa!"
I am Lisa, Malkiel thinks absently.
She likes it.
She turns around quickly, a smile already beaming on her face.
And there she is.
Her true love, rushing towards her, her deep chocolate hair shining impossibly under an ethereal light.
"Jennie", Lisa murmurs, her eyes already watery.
The shorter girl never diminishes her speed. She collapses against her love fully, her arms embracing the tallest girl's neck as her legs lock themselves around her waist.
They both giggle, elated.
They are back together.
Jennie cries against Lisa's shoulder.
"You are back".
The blonde doesn't answer. She pulls away slightly, the brunette still in her arms, to kiss her deeply.
Finally, finally, finally.
Everything screams home now.
Everything is perfect.
They kiss for long, slowly, dripping love.
They pull away eventually, unable to stop themselves from smiling.
Jennie looks into Lisa's eyes.
Lisa stares right back.
She lets Jennie stand on her own again, but keeps her close by encircling her tiny waist with her arms.
The brunette caresses her love's cheeks with her thumbs.
"A Guardian, huh?" Lisa asks.
The brunette smiles dazzlingly.
"I'm finally completely content".
"Not to offend other creatures", the blonde whispers, "but Guardians rock".
