Even if his body hadn’t been in the process of a slow death, Luci’s last blow would have taken him out sooner than later, even if he’d avoided killing him in that one blow. Besides, Katou was the only one among them that wasn’t fit to enter Heaven, enter the Gates of Entemenanki. It made sense that he’d hold the gate open so Set could get through in one piece.
And then the gates closed, and the Star of Wormwood filled his vision. Someone - Kira - had once told him that a falling star grants a million wishes, but the only wish that Katou had was that he had a light for his cigarette.
And then there was the red glow of a cigarette pressed up against his, and Kira was standing next to him, and maybe, just maybe, death - true death, this time - wouldn’t be so bad after all. It wasn’t like he’d ever really expected to get a chance at a real life ever again.
Except then the light he could still see through his eyelids dimmed, and the roaring of the rushing star was replaced with the din of traffic, and the gate he’d been leaning against, the debris and stones he’d been sitting on, suddenly felt suspiciously like a sidewalk.
He couldn’t open his eyes, couldn’t move a muscle, but before he lost consciousness entirely, he heard a man say, “Hey kid, are you all -” and then there was a hand on his arm, and he heard “oh shit,” and then he heard nothing else.
