It was all so tedious. Living. Dying. They were an endless circle bound to be rewound and repeated until the souls being processed grew too large to be handled and, rendered useless, would be released into 'Nirvana.'
He stared blandly at the swirling void. Long ago, he had once imagined that the world would amount to more than this - more than a little black rabbit hole floating around in the gray tones of the boundary between life and death.
As a creature of the most succinct form of efficiency, he abhorred the idea of duplication. Why do things twice when once was more than enough? It was a complete waste of time to replay. If he was to be reborn with no memory, it was relatively improbable that he would deviate from the path taken in his previous lifetime.
Small situations may vary, but the overall outcome would remain true.
The gods, however, did not seem to follow his logic.
'Bastards,' he thought, imagining their bejeweled forms being sucked through the dark chasm into some eternal torment. Looking at the woman floating off to his right, Sesshoumaru took a steadying breath.
"Kagome," his soul form spoke to hers.
"Sesshoumaru."
Her voice was just as beautiful as he remembered.
He wondered if she ever saw through the façade – realized his feelings for what they could have been. Glancing back down at the endless space, he jumped. Maybe he'd get the girl this time.
If not, there was always next time.
