Welcome to my story of what I wish would've happened when Miaka was offered the Oblivion Herb by Amiboshi. I've noticed that there have been no fan-fictions of this couple and so I came up with this. It's not completely an Amiboshi/Miaka pairing. I hope you all enjoy it.
"Miaka, please drink it. It will make all of your worries go away. I promise." Amiboshi said touching the young miko on the shoulder for reassurance.
If I drink this, all of my worries will go away. Miaka thought to herself. She took another look at Amiboshi and slowly took a sip. All around her everything started to spin. All of her memories were being sucked away from her only to be seen in flashes. "Goodbye…" That was the only word she could pick up. She fell onto her back and went into a deep sleep.
"Miaka, when you wake up in the morning, all of your pain and sorrow shall be gone forever." With that, Amiboshi tucked in the once miko and left to his room.
"Miaka!" Tamahome searched for his beloved Miaka. "Where are you!" He heard no answer. He was alone, except for the company of Tama the cat.
"Tamahome!" Tamahome turned to see Miaka, or what seemed to be Miaka. The truth is, it was actually Soi pretending to be Miaka with Tomo's help.
"Mi- Miaka!" Tama home shouted while he grabbed her into an embrace. "I've been looking all over for you! I'm glad you're safe!" He hugged her tighter. "Don't ever do that again, Miaka!"
Soi, after adjusting to the moment started to play her role as Miaka as she hugged him back and said, "Tamahome. I'm so sorry…" She put her face into his chest. "I can never stay away from you, Tamahome." She looked into his eyes. "I'm so scared… Please hold me tight. So tight everything else slips away…"
Tamahome looked into the eyes of what he thought was his Miaka. "Miaka…" He held her close as he kissed her.
Tomo was sitting off to the side, smiling as he watched.
The birds were chirping as the morning sun arose. Amiboshi walked into Miaka's room anticipating the moment she wakes up. His adoptive mother told him that once a person drinks the oblivion herb, the morning they wake up, they will only believe the story of their life the first person they see tells them. Amiboshi wanted to be that person.
Miaka started to stir. "Miaka!" Amiboshi yelled with excitement. He hugged her as he said "Good morning!"
Miaka looked at him puzzled. "Who is this Miaka and who are you? Where are we?"
He sat on the edge of her bed and smiled at her. "You're Miaka." I would've changed her name, but I think it's too pretty. He thought to himself. "My name is Huaike. We're in my home within the village of Muohan near the Xi-Lang border."
"How did I get here?" She looked around feeling very unsure of her surroundings.
"I rescued you." Amiboshi answered. "I saw you being attacked by a tiger and killed it. You fainted from fatigue it seems and hit your head when you landed. I couldn't just leave you there so I brought you to my home."
Miaka's mind held onto every word that was being said to her, bringing them into her new past. "Thank you Huaike for taking me to safety." She smiled. "It seems as if I'm in your debt."
Amiboshi blushed at her smile. "Heh, I suppose." He started to sniff. "Smells like breakfast is ready. Would you like some?" He stood up offering as hand to Miaka.
Miaka lit up. "I'm starving!" She took Amiboshi's hand and ran them both to the kitchen.
It seems that habits don't change with memory loss. Amiboshi thought to himself as he was being pulled by the now simple girl. He giggled to himself as her watched her face and how he knew that all of her pain was gone.
This was really just a beginning. More stuff to come!
I love comments!
