/There's such a sad love : Deep in your eyes : A kind of pale jewel : Open and closed/
Ashitaka watched from the top of Irontown as San and the two Wolf God pups made their way down the mountain. They were coming to visit him, he knew. He jumped over the huge fence for Irontown, hoping to meet San before she reached the fortress. He preferred being with her in the forest, because when she came inside, they could both feel the eyes of everyone, and especially Lady Eboshi, staring them down.
"Ashitaka!" San yelled happily, throwing her arms around him. "Hello, San." He replied, hugging her also.
/Within your eyes : I'll place the sky : Within your eyes/
After a few hours together, Ashitaka announced to the Wolf Princess that he needed to return to the Irontown and help the villagers with the chores. San bid him goodbye, and Ashitaka promised to visit her and the Wolf pups within the next week.
/There's such a fooled heart : Beating so fast : In search of new dreams : A love that will last/
When the time came around for Ashitaka to visit San in the midst of the forest, he was busied with helping the ladies pump iron, and couldn't. He felt truly bad for not being able to see her. . . Not just because he loved her, and he wanted to be near her, but because the past four times he'd tried to come see her, he was either late, or was to busy to come at all.
/Within your heart : I'll place the moon : Within your heart/
When he got his supper break, he looked out over the fence of Irontown, and could see San, sitting sadly next to a river. He swore he could see her crying, but he couldn't be positive. In any case, she was upset. *Again*.
/As the pain sweeps through : Makes no sense for you : Every thrill has gone : Wasn't too much fun at all/
Finally, Ashitaka's shift was over. He packed a little bag with food and rushed off for the mountain, hoping San would be as forgiving this time as she had been. "San! San!" The young Imishi (sp?!) prince yelled, searching for the Wolf girl. After about half an hour of searching, he found her, sitting next to the river once again. Only this time, he couldn't tell whether or not she had been crying. "San, I've been looking for you. Sorry I couldn't come sooner. . . Lady Eboshi had me work full shift. . . again." He sighed and looked to San, who was now standing up in front of him. "Ashitaka. . . this isn't working. You've got things to do in the village, and my brother and sister are angry at me for leaving to see you so often. We have to stop. Wolves and humans just don't mix. . . no matter what." She told him, a single tear rolling down her cheek. "Goodbye." She said, running off to find the Wolf pups.
/But I'll be there for you : As the world falls down : It's falling : As the world: It's falling down : Falling in love/
Ashitaka stood still for a few minutes, stunned at San. Just as he thought. She wouldn't be able to put up with that much longer. But he hadn't expected her to reject him and basically say, "I never want to see you again. Goodbye." He sighed once again and began walking off for Irontown. "Sayonara, San." He whispered to himself, causing some little Kodama to appear around him, then disappear sadly.
/I'll paint you mornings of gold : I'll spin you Valentine evenings : Though we're strangers 'til now : We're choosing the path/
"She rejected you? How positively *awful*, Ashitaka. I knew that girl was no good. . . despite that she showed me the wrongs of my ways. Well, she was right about one thing. Wolves and humans *don't* mix. Don't feel bad, Ashitaka." Lady Eboshi told the boy in her thick British accent. Ashitaka swallowed sadly and his hands fell to his sides. "I can't forget about San, no matter what. I've got to get her to come around. . ." He was cut off by Lady Eboshi. "Prince Ashitaka, any girl here would die to have you for her husband, and you sit weeping over a girl whose soul is that of a wolf. She's probably so cold to you because her heart if probably that of a wolf as well. Feel no sorrow for this. I'm sure you'll find someone else." Ashitaka stood up and began to walk off, then he turned around slightly and said, "There is no one else. I love. . . San." He said, continuing to walk off.
/Between the stars : I'll lay my love : Between the stars/
San had climbed all the way to the top of the tallest tree in the forest just so she could see over the fence of the Irontown, and see if Ashitaka was in sight. She could make him out in the croud, eating, but just barely. He and Toki were laughing at Lady Eboshi's mockings of Gonza. Only. . . Ashitaka looked as though he were faking his cheerfulness, and San could see right past the mask. "Oh, Ashitaka. . ." She whispered, wiping a tear from her cheek. "It just doesn't work out."
/As the pain sweeps through : Makes no sense for you : Every thrill had gone : Wasn't too much fun at all/
Ashitaka laughed again, as Toki cracked on poor Gonza, even though he felt more like dying. 'Oh, San. . .' He thought, 'I wish it would work out.'
/But I'll be there for you : As the world falls down : It's falling : As the world : It's falling down : It's falling : Falling in love/
