Chapter 1 ~ The Heartbreak Begins ~

Siren and Ambulance lights flickered across the dark street as a crowd had gathered at the gory wreck of the two cars smashed completely against each other. A young man struggled against the officers to get to the bleeding woman headed for the ambulance.

"SANGO! WAKE UP! PLEASE SANGO!"

"Sir. Please calm down, they're trying to help her now, and she's on her way to the hospital."

"SANGO! Let me go! I want to see her!"

"Sir, your hurt too. Please come this way so we can check your injuries and then we will escort you immediately to the hospital."

"Screw my injuries! I want to see her!" he said breaking through. His attempts proved too late as the ambulance sped down the roadside towards the hospital.

"SANGO!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Where's my wife!?" he cried running down the hall into a nurse.

"Calm down please sir, Are you the husband from the automobile accident?" he nodded quickly. "The doctors sent me to take you to her as soon as we fix your own injuries."

"I'm fine just what room number is it?"

"213 sir, but- " he was already gone. "SIR!"

He ran down the halls past doors and up the stairs to the 2nd floor.

The young man rushed into the room to see 3 doctors round the young woman who was still bleeding while her eyes stayed closed. He kneeled by her bed, taking her hand.

"You are Miroku Houshidon, correct?" asked the first doctor.

"Yes. How is she?"

"This is your wife, Sango Houshidon, correct?"

"YES ALREADY! How is she!?" he cried.

"Sir, I'm very sorry to tell you this but your wife is dying as well as the baby inside her."

"What are you talking about? That's impossible!"

"Sir, we realize this is very hard-"

"GET OUT! Just... get out..."

"We'll leave you with her then."

At the click f the door he stared at his beloved laying on in the white sheets wrapped in bandages already going red. "Sango. please Sango wake up. Wake up for me. Please Sango? I need you, so don't...don't leave me right now.."

"...Mi..roku...."

"Sango! Sango I'm right here!"

"Miroku.. I want you... you to ...know how much.." She started coughing as a crimson liquid hit the white sheets spilling from her hand as she lay against the soft pillows.

"Please Sango hold on, you'll be all right just hold on."

".. I want . .to tell you.. goodbye.."

"Goodbye? Sango your not going anyway where. You're right here with me now. Come on now save you're your strength."

"...goodbye, and that I... I love you... very, very much Miroku..." More coughing came until her body went limp on the bed.

He stared at her calm face and cupped her cheek with his hand. No pulse. She was dead.

"Sango? come on now wake up. SANGO PLEASE! Come back. Come on now, you were 7 months through the pregnancy remember? A boy Sango, we were going to have a little boy. You and I, and our own son. We would be a happy family, and we can have more if you want, we can even get a dog to play with Kirara. What do you say?

You held my hand and then you slipped away.
and I may never see your face again
so tell me how to fill the emptiness inside
without love, what is life?

"Please Sango. Don't leave me... I'm sorry for everything I ever did, just please come back... come back.. Sango, I love you. Don't leave me now.."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Come on Kagome. It should be right down here."

"Hurry Inuyasha, maybe we can still make it." A young man and a young woman hurried down the halls to room 213, however their eyes only found a dead friend with her crying husband.

"..Miroku?" asked Inuyasha.

"...."

"Mir-"

"I didn't even to get to say goodbye." Miroku started. "I couldn't even see the car coming... and now I can't even hold her anymore! Or make a family with her! She was my life."

And anyone who knew us both can see
we always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free, and all this pain.
when does it go away?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

2 Weeks later.

Miroku stood by the gravestone in the National Kyoto Cemetery. Sango Houshidon carved into it clearly.

"Sango. I love you. I hope you're happy. But you were wrong, this is not a goodbye, and I will never say goodbye to you my Sango."

He walked away in the cold November as the wind blew at his black coat. Softly snow started to fall on the white roses left by the grave.

I gotta long, long way to go
before I can say goodbye to you,
Oh,I gotta long, long way, I know
before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew,
to you, to you

Well, was it sad? If it was then I have achieved success. If you sat there kind of yawning while eating some cookies, then I failed.

I hope you enjoyed it. And I REALLY hope I can get some reviews here. I've got my flame suit ready then! (just in case of flamers of course ^_~ )

There is a purpose to Sango's death, if there is someone who is a bit upset at me for that.

Cookies for reviewers!

Go on then.
