Alice lies in a bed, gray hair, wrinkles on her face, unable to get out of bed any longer. Around her bed, are Carnage, Toxin, and Morgan, along with Arisa, Tama, Pochi, Liza, Mia, Nana and the other seven Homunculus turned elves and Lulu, all of them beginning to show their ages as well, though not to the same extent as Alice. In the corner of the room, Alucard stands there, unshed tears in his eyes, in a rare show of emotion. Portals open around the room, various people in them, all watching, tears in their eyes

.

"All my friends, my family, here to see me off to the next world" Alice says, smiling softly, before coughing into a handkerchief, blood showing on it. She gestures to her three children to come closer

.

Carnage, Toxin and Morgan all lean in closer

.

"My dear sweet Morgan, you live your life how you want, complete your magic research. Go be with Luna, and make sure you give me some grandchildren" Alice says, Morgan holding her hand, crying

"Carnage, Toxin. You two live your lives free of what other people think of you, follow your hearts, I want to look down and see the two of you with children of your own" Alice says as the two take each other's hands and nod to Alice, tears in their eyes

"Tama, Pochi. You two keep following your dream, find the biggest creature in existence, and eat it" Alice says, a light chuckle in her voice

.

Mia sits next to her, holding her hand, laying her head against Alice's weakened and thin wings

.

"Mia, sweet Mia, keep working on rebuilding your village, but make sure to have fun as well, enjoy your life" Alice says, Mia nodding and hugging Alice softly, as to not hurt her

.

The eight former Homunculus gather around Alice

.

"You help your mother you hear, don't cause any trouble for her, and make sure you live your own lives, find your own purpose, and live"

.

""Yes Master""

.

Alucard walks over, and carefully takes her hand, sitting next to her

.

"Father, I know you regret not being able to stop this, but don't. I was never meant to live as long as I have, but I have enjoyed it. Don't ever change father, keep up being The Crimson Fucker, and go on enthusiastic walks through the woods"

"Of course, and once a year, I'll gather them together and we can all go, in your honor" he says, tears in his pink eyes

"That sounds nice, thank you father"

.

Liza comes up next, and last, sitting down next to Alice

.

"Liza, you've protected me for a long time now, the last two decades or so especially requiring it. Don't just work on protecting everyone, make sure you follow your own interests, live your own life"

"*Sniffle*…Yes Master" she says crying

.

Alice looks out to the portals, her vision blurry, but still enough to look in their general direction

.

"And those of you who could not be here to see me off, I understand, and it's okay. I'll miss you all"

.

Alice looks back to everyone present in the room

.

"And I'll never forget any of you; I hope you don't forget me either"

.

Alice lies back against the bed. Alice closed her eyes, everything slowly drifting away as the darkness takes her, and Alice thought to herself how she lived a good life, few regrets total. As she takes her last breath, she smiles, happy to soon see the loves of her life once more, as her body grows heavy and her consciousness fades away

.

"You gonna buy an Appa or what?"

.

And here ends book 2.7, I'll see you all in book 3, or for many of you, I'll see you once again in book 3
