Warning: Not all character endings are happy.
[/u]Note: The following is only my wishes for the endings to my characters. Since many are involved in the plot and with other characters, none of this is fully canon, considering we never finished this RP. It is merely my take on what could have happened, as a bit of closure for myself and for anyone curious.
Tony:
As O:FF leader, Tony's intention was to lead his members to victory in overthrowing the current government. When he found out about the second rebellion led by Tania, he was even more determined. In the end, while O:FF made a name for itself and neared the war they were willing to wage against the factions, to Tony's dismay, Tania and her rebellion beat him to it. She managed to take the factions down from the inside by planting fellow rebels into powerful government positions.
Tony silently applauded her for causing no bloodshed, and for doing something he was incapable of doing from the factionless sector. But unable to live with the guilt of knowing what he did to her family, and not wanting to live somewhere ruled by her (for he was sure she would have him locked up immediately), Tony left New Chicago.
He snuck out of the gates with as many supplies as he could carry in a pack. While Tania and her rebels reconstructed New Chicago's government system and introduced its citizens to a new era, Tony left to live alone.
He left his twin brother, he left his O:FF members. He felt guilty for abandoning them, but knew they would be better off in Tania's new system than living in the wilds. He knew she would not reprimand them, for they were working towards the same as she -- Tania just got there first. And they would be safer if they were no longer affiliated with them.
He essentially went back to living his life as he had before he found O:FF. He fended for himself in the wilds, wandering farther from New Chicago each day ensuring no one would ever find him if they bothered trying, and in order to keep himself occupied, until some time in his late twenties when he figured he lived a good enough life. Not wanting to spend it alone anymore, he did the only thing he could think of, and allowed himself to starve.
It was a painful end to his life, but he did it for the factionless who had had to suffer before justice was had and their freedom was fought for. He had failed them by not taking O:FF further, sooner: his biggest regret. And so sometime in the early winter, Tony did not feel the cold as his body shut down from a complete lack of nutrients. He could not utter any words, for he was too worn out, but his last thoughts were full of his regrets. His abandonment of O:FF, his could-have-been relationship with his twin, never saying goodbye to Kaely - whom he discovered he loved too late, and his biggest regret of all: becoming a murderer. As he took his final breaths, the sky opened up and a sprinkling of the first snowfall of his final winter fell upon his face. And for the first time in his life, he felt peace.
-------------------
Miles:
After a ruthless life of torturing the mostly-innocent, Miles was finally caught. He never saw it coming, but his current play-thing (the Amity named Amberly) told her story. How he tortured her, how he raped her, how he impregnated her. Her story made its way to the government, and it was The Squad who finally took Miles down. Under a strict request by her cousin, Amberly was allowed to watch the end of Miles, for the closure that she would need, and it was her eyes that Miles last saw. But he never felt guilt. He never felt regret. In fact, just as he was injected with the euthanization serum, he smiled at her, a creepy smile that he hoped would haunt her forever. Before the serum took him, he whispered words she could not hear: I will wait for you in death.
---------------------------------
Amberly:
After everything Miles was putting her through, Amberly finally came clean to Tyler and to Shane as to everything that was going on. She asked them both to meet her at Shane's apartment, and with a surprisingly steady voice and only a few tears, she showed Tyler her scars and told him and Shane the entire truth about Miles. Who he was and what he had done. It was with their help that they took it forward and she told the people of Candor just what had been going on (she could not tell Amity, for they would either not take her seriously, or worse: inject her with enough truth serum to keep her loopy for the rest of her life). There she told the truth (under the truth serum so the Candor leaders could make sure her tale was 100%). And then she personally watched Miles' life be taken from him, in the most unjustifiably humane way compared to how he had treated her. His parting smile haunted her for weeks, and her lack of appetite caused her to mis-carry, something she was admittedly not unhappy about. She did not want to give birth to a spawn of a psycho.
She ended up Choosing Candor at her ceremony, leaving her past entirely behind. This way she would be able to see her cousin, whom forgave her for their past issues, and to live a life of truth, for she eventually found that the truth was the most freeful way of living.
She never married, for even though she was surrounded by men who could not and did not lie, she never believed anyone when they said they would never hurt her. She preferred to live the rest of her life single, never passing on her genes to a child, not wanting to raise a child by a broken mother. But with her cousin nearby, she lived a fulfilled enough life. She had plenty of friends, and that was all that she needed. She stopped drawing, for ever time she tried her art was filled with the horrors Miles scarred her with. She found she never missed it; as a Candor she never needed to hide behind her art, which was all she did as an Amity. When the factions were eradicated she still kept the Candor values at her side, for she felt freer with them. She was all right.
------------------
Tyler:
Tyler never went through a more devastating time than when he found the truth about what was happening to his cousin. The chance to rip Miles apart limb by limb was taken from him when the authorities stepped in and dealt with the situation. So Tyler spent the rest of his life ensuring that his cousin was always safe.
Once the government was taken over and began to run in a way that much better benefited its citizens instead of being run like a dystopia, he married Shane and though they had their ups and downs, were always happy. He had all of the people he needed in his life, and his arrogance never left him, even though Shane did tame him and Amberly kept him grounded. With them in his life, life was just how he wanted it. Them, and a house full of mirrors, of course
