Hello all this is my first attempt at making a fanfic and I'm starting with a songfic for Kekkishi. If it goes well I'll do the main ideal one in my head so keep in mind that this is a trial story. In short I'll do the Disclaimer: I don't own Kekkishi or Dance with the devil by Breaking Benjamin

Yoshimori's Lament

Yoshimori was just finishing up his Kekkishi training though he really doesn't want to do it, as goes into his house to relax he pulls out his CD player * and when he's hears this song it makes him think of how his life is right now.

Here I stand

Helpless and left for dead

Yoshimori thinks of the night that made him take his training seriously, the night Tokine was injured.

Close your eyes

So many days go by

Easy to find what's wrong

Harder to find what's right

After it had happened nothing made sense to him. It felt that he was in a nightmare. He found himself singing the lyrics subconsciously.

I believe in you I can show you

That I can see right through all your empty lies

I won't stay long in this world so wrong

Say goodbye as we dance with the devil tonight

Don't you dare look him in the eye

As we dance with the devil tonight

Trembling

Crawling across my skin

Feeling your cold dead eyes

Stealing the life of mine

He thought about the lyrics as they played and felt they symbolized how he felt about the whole event. How the whole event felt surreal to him and how he had prayed that it wasn't real.

I believe in you I can show you

That I can see right through all your empty lies

I won't last long in this world so wrong

Yoshimori then thought about how everyone said that it wasn't his fault, but he knew in his heart that it was.

Say goodbye as we dance with the devil tonight

Don't you dare look at him in the eye

As we dance with the devil tonight

Hold on hold on

As the solo had started he remembered the one lyric "hold on" he thought. That's all he had done when he made the vow to protect her, no matter what pain and suffering he would go though. As the song ended, he sang with silent vigor:

Say goodbye as we dance with the devil tonight

Don't you dare look at him in the eye

As we dance with the devil tonight

Hold on hold on

With that song, he found that had strengthened his resolve to protect her, well partly the song had helped him another was how he felt about her he chuckled to himself as he thought "Tokine if you only knew how I feel." He looked up he saw it was time to get himself ready for another night at Karasumori. As he packed his gear up to get ready to go he found humming the song under his breath.

Well that's my story tell me how it is and remember this is my first story so… all I can ask is to rate and review it, I want send a special shout-out to my teacher for helping me edit this (A/N for those who are wondering why I said CD player is because of a chapter in manga where Yoshimori couldn't figure out how to use a cell phone) Thanks everyone.
