You Never Did.
Black Beyond
I remember the very first time you said that to me, and the last,
and the third, and seventeenth... I remember most all of them. Each
time, you said it like you meant it, each time, I stared down the
path of some weapon-- usually that gun of your's... and each time,
you never did.
I dared you to do it. I chased you all over hell and creation,
tracked each hiding place. Everytime you raised your gun, I dared
you. I wanted you to do it. You were the only person that would
have... but you never did.
I wanted death, you see. Your friend... the one with the braid? Duo
Maxwell? He claims to be Death. I wish he were. Then I'd take my
pleas straight to him and Deathscyne Hell. I want to die. You kept
promising that to me, over and over. But jsut like everyone I've
ever known, you broke your promise. When I wanted you to pull the
trigger, you never did.
I hope you get this, Hiiro Yui. I hope you read it. I want you to
know why I was such a-- pardon my language-- a bitch. Why I risked
both of our safety and the safety of several others just so you
could say "Omae o korosu" to me. I wanted you to follow through on
your threat, Hiiro Yui. But you never did.
But I realize that you never would. It didn't matter to me, that
that anything ever mattered much to me. World Peace was a hobby,
something to keep me from loosing whatever fragile grip on sanity I
had, if I had one at all. You see, you couldn't kill me anyway,
Hiiro Yui. I was already dead. I forgive you for not keeping your
promise. I understand, I think, why you never did.
I'll live for a while more, I think. After all, I've been called a
tease by others, why shouldn't I tease Death? It's not like I've
got anything to loose. If I'm lucky, Death will just say fuck it
and kill me, just like you never did.
