Chapter 36: I'm lost
A bright light. That's all that pierced Carly's eyes as she woke up in the real world. She couldn't see anything else. "Please don't tell me I'm in heaven." Carly muttered to herself as her eyes were still adjusting to the light of the room.
"You're far from there Carly... welcome back." Rebecca's voice was heard. Carly chose to finish readjusting her eyes before she found herself back in the facility.
She got up to see Rebecca standing next to Axle's sleeping body. She looked at Axle with a sad face and even sadder eyes. "How long has he been like that?" The CyberHuman asked.
"CyberSpace was deleted three minutes ago. Axle hasn't woken up since then." Rebecca said with a voice full of sorrow.
Carly's eyes grew wide. Without hesitation she got off of her bed and quickly walked over to Axle's bed. She gazed upon his weak and fragile body. She was afraid that this would happen. Artificial tears welled up in her eyes as her lip quivered. "Axle." She silently choked. "Axle."
"We already called the time. His consciousness was taken out along with CyberSpace. There was no point in keeping him on life support."
"No." Carly tried to hold her tears back but it was too hard. It was too much for her. "Axle!!" The CyberHuman's tears burst out as she cried onto his chest.
Axle was the last person to be claimed by CyberSpace. "Why? You told me that you'd come back to me!! You promised me that you'd come back alive!!" She continued to yell as she cried on Axle's lifeless body.
"Axle!!!" The sight was painful. Axle was the one and only person who Carly cared for the most and she lost him. Rebecca's heart hurt as she saw this. Now she had to figure out a way to tell her brother, sister in law and her niece and nephew.
"I shouldn't have let him back in. I shouldn't have created that stupid program..." Rebecca said as she started to blame herself. "It's all my fault." She said as she fell down, tears flowing down from her eyes.

1 week later...
"We gathered here to say goodbye to a beloved friend, brother and companion." Wyatt said as they people we gathered around a coffin.
"Axle Ryder was a great man. He showed me that there's always a way out of any situation. I'm greatful for letting me stay a good man for both me and my family." Wyatt said.
"Axle was a great brother. I've never met his sister but I'm sure she would've been proud to be his sister. Same goes for me. He made me happy." Erin said.
"Axle was the best and only big brother that I could ever ask for. I'd be lying if I said I was okay with this. I'm gonna miss him. I wasn't ready for him to leave the house, so it's obvious I wasn't ready for him to leave the world of the living either." Eddie spoke up.
"It was nice spending time with Axle. I'm sure his parents are proud of the man he became. I was glad to accept him as part of the family. I'll miss you Axle." Juliette said as she was doing her best to hold back her tears.
Carly was the last to speak. She walked toward Axle's coffin and smiles as she cried. She remembered all the memories she shared with him.
"Axle was the only one who mattered most to me. I was on the run from some despicable people and I lied to him about who I was at the start. He didn't mind that I lied and when I told him the truth about me, he flat out told me that he loved me.
He didn't care about what I was, all he cared about was the person within. He loved me and I kept rejecting that love. It's sad actually because I fell in love with him a few months after he went into CyberSpace.
I wish I told him before it was too late. Axle was a great friend, companion, and he was a good man. I loved everything about him and honestly, I don't think I'll be able to love someone like how I loved him. Axle, where ever you are, I hope you wait for me."
They all couldn't deal with it. The worst part was saying their final goodbyes to Axle as his coffin was lowered into the hole they dug for him.
After the funeral was over, everyone except the CyberHuman left the graveyard.
"Goodbye Axle... I love you."
CyberSpace
