Rain.
I opened my eyes, staring into an open window.
Waiting. Waiting for someone.
Anyone ?
Perhaps I was too foolish to think that way.
To think that -I-can change something like that....
I hated the rain, really I did.
Yet the rain was the only thing that gave me a chance to clear my mind.
To wash away all my memories I longed to forget...
I extended a hand out the window, catching the small raindrops as they fell through my hands.
No..noo...noo please don't leave....
I dragged my limp body to stand out in the rain.
The cool droplets wetted my face.
Then,
I laughed.
Not the crazed laughter I used to own, the one you endeared so much.
One of pain.
One of complete grief.
Something you would've understood.
You were in grief too, weren't you ?
Not physical pain.
//You really shouldn't be out in the rain..//
I snapped out of my train of thought, gazing upwards, I stared straight into eyes of black irises.
The figure was cloaked with a clown's attire, complete with a giant oversized leaf.
//Shinkouhyou?..//
The clown smiled.
//For once, you're not wearing that ridiculous rabbit hat of your's.//
I went to walk towards him, fell, stumbling to stand up again.
//Blasted puddle...//
A gloved hand appeared in front of me, offering help.
I reached for his hand...
...and pulled him down with me.
//Umf!//
A pointed hat went flying, along with my shoe.
//Cursed doushi!//
I had to laugh. The look on his face was priceless.
I stopped laughing for a moment, turning into the serious expression I rarely wear.
//Why are you here Shinkouhyou ?//
He stared at me, smiling.
//To comfort you//
I closed my eyes.
//Why ?//
He got up, absolutely refusing to help me up now.
//You have spirit Taikoubou. It would be a tragedy to waste your talent.//
I clumsily leapt up, almost falling again.
//Besides, I would be quite sad too.//
I started twitching.
Shinkouhyou laughed.
This was the first time I heard him laughing.
It was a rich sound, almost sounding like a tenor.
// I would be sad because I lost my source of entertainment, nothing else//
I watched him mount Kokutenko, dripping with water and covered with mud.
//Don't give up Taikoubou//
His last words echoed in my ears over and over again.
Maybe...

Maybe...
.....the rain wasn't so bad after all.....
-End ?-
Notes#2:Errr how shall I explain this...this _WAS_ supposed
to be a friendship piece between Shink and Tai....but it sounds more like
a ShinkxTai to me -_-;; how come things never work out the way I want it
too.... Err to clear some things up;
This an AU fic (alternate universe) but the plot revolves
around after Fugen's houshin(I'm very obsessed with Fu's houshin ;_;).
The Shinkouhyou in this story is ver very OOC to me...VERY. Oh well.....anyways,
flames, comments, etc. R&R!
