DISCLAIMER: I don't own Fatal Frame III….But I wish I could make a scene in the game where Kei gropes Reika in the Chamber of Thorns! XD Seriously…I think he's a pervert…
A/N: Well this is my VERY first fanfic for the Fatal Frame series. But I was very sad when Kaname died in front of Reika. His stupid grandma had to kill him!. Rei should have just whacked her with the camera. =D You know the Stone Earring that was Reika's, well I wanted to do Kaname's thoughts on his earring, before, during, and after his death. I think he WOULD have a lot to say of what happened on his point of view. Enjoy reading! ^.^
This brings back memories, her reaction to such a tragic nightmare.
Hers...Reika's...
They say that being with another person can make you feel so much more alive.
I realized then what those people meant.
There was nothing but pain and darkness for so long, she was impaled, for a reason she didn't understand and probably never would.
Yet as the symbols were drawn upon her delicate skin, she could understand, losing herself in feelings. The loss experienced by so many given to her, deaths only she can forgive.
Her pain, this all consuming pain, the Snake coils around the decrepit body of hers.
Yet, she found the thoughts of me hurt more than the stain of Holly that she still had.
There must be no remembrance to break her eternal sleep, keeping her eyes closed to blind the Rift, giving the dead a boat to cross to the Otherside.
Taking away their pain, their loss and sorrow.
Keeping it etched into her eyes, and sleeping undisturbed for eternity.
She must keep her eyes stainless from the glimpse of my face, the remembrance of my smile. It must not happen, it's forbidden for a reason.
She was tattooed over this longing and tried to forget by burying me in pain, shattering the mirror of herself, her Holly.
She was alone, always alone. She was truly alone.
She was doomed to suffer, to suffer for eternity…
It was almost inevitable that...I would fall in love with her.
But it was also inevitable that she would awaken.
"Reika....In my dreams...I...."
I started crying...
It was the first time in my life that my eyes were lost in hers.
Like I was giving an endless stare, piercing deep into her soul.
Like the impalement of the Stake of Tattoos...The tears wouldn't stop.
That moment was literally...like a dream.
"I don't wanna see...any more..."
She said crying.
Now, that smile pierces her heart...My smile....
The end of the dream...came when I went to the Chamber of Thorns...to see her...just one more time...
The song she hears playing forever in her mind...A lullaby designed to take her back to sleep, keeping her here forever with those stakes in her hands.
"Again, and again that moment always in my eyes etched in over and over..."
" I called him here...I'm sorry...It's my fault..."
No matter what I said or did...she did nothing but cry.
I couldn't even blame her.
It was the Holly...and so, she bears it's stain...the snakes that twined across her were biting deeper, burning inside her.
What's hurting her right now is her memories of me. Her love for me.
Isn't it my final duty to free her from that pain?
I think she truly wants to sleep forever.
She wants...to sleep.
"Why did I have this dream? I realized I must be a dream… I'm sorry…Kaname...."
No. I'm the one who should apologize. I'm the one who couldn't protect her. But despite that, she thought only of me till the very end.
If that is the depth of her love...if that was why she became so sad. Then it's not right for her to suffer.
Even if I died surrounded by darkness that never disappears...I don't care...please...please...let my love....my Reika cross the Rift to the Otherside...with the offering of my tears...
