And a light shines in the darkness, and the darkness fell upon her not


One-shot.

Is there a light in the darkness? Is there someone who can save me from what I have become? I remember a little boy smiling happily. Yet that boy is gone. Where did he go? He died long ago.

Who was I? Someone with no principles, with no mercy for humans live. I was a mere killer. Yes, I was strong but still I couldn't live with what I've become. The promise I've given long ago was broken, shattered with no way to mend. Yet, here I was, trying to remember.

Someday I will be myself again, you just wait, till that day comes I will be here standing, waiting for a sign. The darkness won't fall upon the light that shines for me. The darkness won't fall upon you, my light. Because I know you're there, you'll live for both of us. You'll live the life that I wasn't able to.

You're the brother that I never had. You were there for me and I was there for you in the darkest moments of your life. I'll remember you someday. Far, far away. Over thousand seas and hills you'll wait. You'll wait for my return. For the promise we both made.

On my grave you'll come. You'll shed a tear, or two, than you'll go. You'll go back to your life that you have lived for the both of us. Now it will be only yours. Mine had faded away like a candle in the dark. Yet, your candle shines. Shines in the darkness, and the darkness fell upon her not.
