I have decided not getting a beta reader... I tried to get one but I don't know how the process works. Is there a button or something? Even if I did find one, I wouldn't know when my chapters would reach them or how daily they read their e-mails.

Shadows loomed over the 18 year old girl, swimming around the dark aura she always emitted. Just this once, she wished her emotions didn't take over. Why did she had to fall in love a second time? A heart that was broken couldn't possibly be put back together again. It was like broken glass. All the pieces, even if you put them back, could never be perfect again. It wouldn't be the same. It would have to take magic to repair such a broken piece.

So why did I make such a selfish request? I really do want to kiss him. Just once would be fine. If only I could say good bye...

Her whole body slumped down against the cold door behind her. Tears fell, falling down onto her senpai's turtle neck that he lent her. Kyoko hugged her body, wanting to smell his scent.

"I love you." More tears fell silently. Her hands gripped harder onto her elbows. "I love you more than anyone."

But it hurts, doesn't it?

Kyoko looked up, seeing a familiar face. "Do I have to go?" she asked.

"Yes, you do."

"But why? I don't want to leave him!"

"But he caused you misery, just like what happened to your heart before."

"But-"

The atmosphere grew terrifying as the person's form grew visible. His wings were dark like an angel who had tainted wings. His eyes were blue like aquamarine and his hair was blond like the golden sun. His hair was long at the back but the front-sides were short.

"Kyoko, it's already been a year. You have to go."

Her pupils went down. Tears would no longer shed after this day. No, she had to do what must be done.

"Kyoko..."

"Is there a way?" Her eyes darted to the man in front of her. "Can I still be with him?"

The man's wings shook as his voice grumbled loudly. "I guess there is one way..." He snapped his fingers and a gate appeared. It rose all the way to the ceiling. Stairs appeared magically all the way to where Kyoko was laying. "This is the Gateway to Heaven. I take it sometimes to go there. If a human walks through that gate," His eyes glared at her, "you would no longer be alive. You would turn into a shinigami like me."

Kyoko tilted her head in confusion. "I thought shinigami were humans that committed suicide."

"They are. You will become one because you have a choice of whether or not you want to enter that world. Shinigamis usually meet their loved ones but there is no guarantee. Will you take that risk, knowing the consequences?

There was no reason to hear the rest of this lecture. She knew exactly what she wanted to do.

She stood up abruptly and nodded her head. "If it means to see him again after death, I'll take it!"

Kyoko slowly took her first step.

"You'll lose your memory though," said the shinigami.

The girl grinned softly. "Even so, my body will remember his touch."

She was half-way to the glowing gate that stood her fate.

"Won't he wonder where you are?"

She shook her head with confidence. "Do I have a choice?"

Her hand was on the locks of the gate. The lock suddenly unlocked itself, opening to let the blinding light in. The hit of light slammed her. It began to suck her soul right into the world of the dead.

Her body started to fade, leaving the Princess Rosa she always wore to fly into the gate as it closed, sending all the stairs back.

The only remains of her was the Corn stone that took her pain away. On it was an imprint of Princess Rosa.

The shinigami smiled, regretting about telling her that this was her only option. "If you do forget everything about him, then I will be the one you shall love."

This is the prolouge of the fanfic that I am doing. It came to me when in FairyTale Wings, I made Dakuora into a shinigami.

The description of a shinigami is my version with a little twist of Full Moon wo Sagashite's. The fact that a human that committed suicide seemed more interesting than the shinigamis in Death Note and Bleach. (Note: If you watch Bleach in Japanese, it'll say shinigami. If you watch the English version, it'll say soul reaper, as they both mean the same.)
