Did We Make It?

You seriously couldn't have chosen a worse number, man. Okay you could have but shush.

Rinzler

"I fight for the Users."

It was the last line he heard from his dear friend before the resounding crash consumed the two programs in pursuit of his stolen craft, the defiant words ringing in his ears long after when they should have disappeared. (Should he have even been able to hear them? Was it his connection to the Grid that made it possible or had Tron wanted him to hear?) It took his son's excited yelling to snap him out of his reverie and even then he was still more lost in thought than listening to the young man that was so much like himself in the beginning. He couldn't help but feel as though his friend had made the ultimate sacrifice for him--all for naught. He turned towards Quorra, a plan already forming even as the grief settled in to stay.

He had to save Sam. His son was the most important thing in the world--both of them--to him. So he focused on saving Sam and Quorra and nothing else as he made the last move available on the board: reintegration.

He wouldn't survive the process. It didn't matter.

When Flynn opened his eyes he was more than a little astonished at the mere fact that he was opening his eyes. He was also a little surprised by the first sight that settled in his field of vision. "Tron." It was good to see his friend's face again. Even damaged as it was the familiarity was comforting, and anything was better than an emotionless helmet. He smiled faintly at his friend and was rewarded with a sympathetic look in return.

"I guess that means we somehow managed to make it again, huh?" Flynn said as he tried to sit up sluggishly.

The security program nodded, his expression dire as he moved to help support the stubborn User.

Flynn couldn't help the next words out of his mouth. "Hooray for our side."

That earned him a genuine smile that made the line completely worth it.

He swung an arm around Tron's shoulder and let the program lift him effortlessly to his feet. He looked around at their bleak surroundings and realized that Tron had sought out his recompiling data even out here in this now lifeless sector of the System. It was a little overwhelming to consider but he kept a straight face as he practiced his Zen. He turned his head to Tron.

"We have a lot of work ahead of us."

And for the first time since he'd heard the defiant words of a desperate warrior program ring out into the sky, his friend finally spoke. "...Yes." It wasn't much but the weighted word brought a sense of peace to the weary Flynn as he considered the tone in which it was spoken.

He wouldn't be alone.

As somewhat of a bonus I ended up finding this and listening to it most of the time while writing (as it's longer and easier to put on repeat). :3

My song choices are the best choices, okay. :|

Oh jeez I love it. ♥ I JUST WANT TO HUG TRON. FOREVER.

(I am a total sap okay.)

It gave me an idea at least.

Thank you. <3 I was surprisingly pleased with it for writing it while dead tired. >.>; Now I just wish they'd make this canon with a third movie already. They can make it better and stuff just do it. And I'll be happy forever.

(That's okay, I still love you.)
