Cyanide Poisoning
Fire, fire everywhere, but not a bit of heat.
He sat on the steps of the temple, alone at last. He had thought about possibilities of why they had been resurrected. Now that he knew, he wasn't sure what to think about. He hadn't minded being dead, not that his death was that wonderful. And he was alone, for once.
Or so he thought.
The wind picked up, blowing out his fire as a demon landed before him, he stood up.
"Ah, Renkotsu, so your still around here," she snapped.
"I was just about to leave, actually. You're…Kagura?"
She nodded. "Naraku's incarnation, Kagura, indeed. You're sharper than your comrades…" she said in a low tone.
He raised an eyebrow. "You've seen them?"
"In passing, on patrol for Naraku," she said with a wave of her hand.
"Naraku cannot be trusted. I'm not going to say anything more in regards."
He knew better than to talk of his own ideas to someone who would report back to Naraku. Trusting people always led to…
Miserable endings…
Everyone comes to their own miserable end. He knew this, he had his own, and as did everyone else.
Sitting on the steps of the burnt temple with a sake bowl in one hand. The demon woman beside him with the same. They toasted.
"To a miserable end to a miserable existence," they told each other.
I could never love the ion change. You'll be coming clean tonight
They have been the ones who've seen enough this is what you call love?
And toasting to a miserable ending knowing the next day might be your last and you might not live through the night. You let your emotions get the best of you and never know where it will get you.
To the hearts you break and all the cyanide you drank.
To the end…
