Author's Notes are at the bottom
His eyes are closed (he knows), he's laying down (he thinks, but the angle feels wrong), his head is stuffed full of cotton (like that one time he got sick), and there's a subtle tingling all through his body (that reminds him of static cling, only this is some how so much More). He doesn't have a clue as to what's going on (and he will never admit that it makes him a bit scared), but knows that it can't be too bad (because, see, if it had been Something Bad, he'd be thinking up ways to get the fuck out, and he's not, so therefore it can't be too bad).
It feels like there's something wrong (like something that was always there is missing), but he can't quite put his finger on it (it really bothers him).
One small eternity later, he opens his eyes to blue skies (which is impossible, because there should be smog), and wonders if this is what it feels like to be dead.
His eyes are closed (or it's just really fucking dark, he can't tell), he's standing up (which is weird, because the last thing he remembers is falling backwards), his head is surprisingly clear (just like when when it had clicked that there was no Other Way to defeat this psycho), and there's that tingling that isn't really all that subtle anymore (but there's something different about it, and he's almost positive that it's changing Right Then). He thinks he has an idea about what's going on (he'd been through it before, afterall), but knows that he knows pretty much nothing about what's supposed to happen now (because it wasn't like this at all last time).
It feels like there's something wrong (and he's betting it has to do with the tingling thats starting to remind him of Kurama and Hiei and Jin and, oh shit, he thinks he knows what it is now), but he decides to sit back and see what happens (he isn't quite as rash as before).
One small eternity later, he opens his eyes to a cavern's ceiling (which is surprising, because he was half sure that it would have all caved in by now), and wonders why the hell he isn't dead.
Author's Notes
Wow, a Yuusuke-centric piece. Huh. Where did this come from?...
Don't forget to tell me what you think! Espescially if I majorly screwed something up and didn't manage to catch it in the ten minutes I worked on it...
Thank Vhee for the edit; s/he brought something up that I hopefully clarified
