Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of these characters (To tell you the true, there will be just Eichi, Mitsuki, Takuto and Meroko in this story. Maybe some else characters will appear, I am not sure about it). They all belong to Arina Tanemura (oh, my Sama). If they belong to me, I would be very happy. smile
Summary: For some people have no ideas about memorizing something (like me): Eichi's body died but his soul didn't. Since then, he decided to go after Mitsuki to protect her from dangers, until one day…
A/N: This is my first time to write such a story. Therefore, it may has some problems about grammar, spelling… etc. And because of that, I look forward to your reviews. Write whatever you like so that I can know my weak points and try to do my best the next time. Now let yourself enjoy my story.
-----------------------------------------
At the airport…
"Promise me, Mitsuki! That the next time we meet, we would get closer to our dreams. I'd be an astrologist and you'd be a singer." - Eichi looked at Mitsuki with his sad eyes.
However, there's no answer. He just received her tears. Mitsuki cried and cried, more and more.
"I guess you can't after all. I'm sorry for making you suffer…Forget all about me…" - he kept looking at her with concentration, and started to smile at her, a sad smile.
"How…? How could I ever…?" - she said in tears, turned her head up in order to face to face with him.
"If you can't do that…Then give me an answer." - said he, with his sweet voice, when he was passing her.
Then, he left her behind and went toward to the elevator, which headed to the customs, not forget to turn his head for a last look at her. "So, you are still angry at me after all. You hate me that much?"- He kept that question in his head while he was walking.
Flashback
At a glasshouse of an orphanage…
Eichi and Mitsuki laid on the floor, looking at the stars which shining on the dark sky. They talked about the stars, about people, about their dreams… Suddenly, Eichi stopped talking.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" - asked the innocent Mitsuki, worrying.
"Mitsuki… I love you! Always, I didn't think about you as my littler sister, but as a girl. I want to protect you, to be your bodyguard." - hugging her in his warm arms, he whispered into her ear, after thinking for seconds.
Right after that, he gave her a sweet kiss. Soon, she pushed him away with all her strength, ran as fast as she could out of the room, left him behind with his disappointment. Kneeling down on the floor, Eichi kept his eyes on her footsteps, "What did I do?"
The next day…
"Eichi-kun is going to America in one week. A kind American couple wants to bring up Eichi-kun as their son…" - announced the teacher.
Eichi talked to his friends. Everyone congratulated him with all their hearts. Eichi was happy because of his friends. However, there's one thing made he sad. Whenever he looked at Mitsuki, she turned her back at him and ran away…
End flashback
At the airplane, sitting on his seat…
"I did such a terrible thing to Mitsuki so, naturally, she would hate me." – Eichi thought, paid no attention on anything else.
"The ARI-122 airplane which left Narita for Los Angeles will take off at 1:00 PM. Only five minutes left. Please hurry and take your seats."
"What should I do now? Mitsuki is angry with me. If I called back, will she talked to me? I've already known the answer. Of course, she won't. She hasn't give me a single word since that day. She hasn't ever taken a look at me. How can she talked to me if I call from abroad? How stupid I am!" - Eichi was still thinking while the airplane started to take off. He just kept thinking about that. The more he thought about it, the more terrible things appeared in his head…
A while later…
"What's happening?" - shouted a passenger.
"What the hell is it?" - groaned another one.
"Passengers, please notice! This is an emergency! There are some little problems with this airplane. We will try our best to fix it. So just calm down and fasten your seat belts!"
Nevertheless, there was smoke everywhere. The passengers, except Eichi, started worrying and their shout could be heard at every corner of the plane. "What on earth is the matter?" - Eichi, finally, noticed the voices around him.
"What's that?" - he asked a person sitting next to him, pointing the smoke.
"I don't know! They said there were some problems. Oh my God! I don't want to die know. My family is waiting for my coming home." - a young woman said with a traces of tears.
"Oh, no. I hoped there's nothing serious. I must be alive. I must come back to Mitsuki and then I will…"
CRACK….
There was smoke everywhere…
CRACK….
The fire licked the plane…
CRACK….
Everything was falling down…
…
"Huh?" - Eichi wondered - "Why am I here? Above the sea… I'm above the sea? How could it happen? How can I hang in mid air? No, this is just a nightmare. Yeah, it's just that." - he talked to himself, watching the burning plane - "But, what's if this true? Does it mean that I have… died?"
When Eichi was thinking, two persons appeared. They worn strange clothes and they both were… flying. Eichi looked at them. They took others passengers' soul, one by one.
"Shinigami!" - this word appeared in Eichi's head almost immediately.
"I must run away now or I can't meet Mitsuki for the last time." - Eichi thought quickly - "Ah, Mitsuki! I now can be by her side. She can't see me but with my ability, I can protect her from dangers. Right! That's it!"
Then, Eichi flew as fast as he could toward to where Mitsuki must be then - an orphanage!
