Tale of Unforgotten Shadows

In the beginning human and beast lived together in harmony. Now the two that are neither human nor beast must bring the two together.

"Why, why did this happen," San cried out. She was kneeling over her wolf brothers limp body.

"Everything happens for a reason San," Ashitaka said as he knelt down next to San.

"But what is that reason!" San cried.

Ashitaka lifted San's chin so that he gazed into her eyes, "we will just have to find out."

San leaned forward and hugged Ashitaka. He just spoke softly to calm her down. San buried he face in Ashitaka's chest.

"I miss him so much," San cried, tears streaming down her face.

"I know it will be ok," Ashitaka replied.

"First Moro now him, will the humans ever stop killing?" San asked.

This was unlike San; she was not the teary type.

"War brings out the worst in people," Ashitaka replied, "but I don't want it to separate us ok?"

"Ok," San whispered.

The two just stood there lost for words.

"San?" Ashitaka asked.

"Yes," she whispered.

"I love you," Ashitaka whispered.

"I do too," San replied.

"We should better head back to the cave Rinkan will wonder were you are," Ashitaka said.

"You're right let's go,"

Once Ashitaka and San got back to the den, Rinkan started to question them. (A/N Rinkan is the wolf that accepts and doesn't dislike Ashitaka. Ashitaka saved Rinkan)

"Where have you been!" Rinkan asked.

"Garou is dead," San whispered.

"What! What happened?" Rinkan asked.

"Ashitaka and I were riding Yakul and we heard a loud noise. We went to where the noise came from and we found Garou dead. He was shot four times by Lady Eboshi," San said

"He got hit in the head, the leg, on his rump and his heart," Ashitaka said so softly it was almost inaudible.

Everyone was silent, lost for words.
