The prompts are written while listening to the song and allowing the raw emotion to help shape the story. It helps to break Writer's block and is a fun way to practise getting back into writing.

Staring out the window at the rain the former green sergeant sighed to himself sadly as memories of a simpler time began to resurface. How long had it been? Certainly more than two years since their last appearance. Focusing on the sound of the rain a song began to form in his mind and he couldn't help but smile. Whenever he heard it he always thought of her. Making sure no one else was around he began to sing to himself, thinking of her.
"Silently we wander
In search of truth and confidence
So many hopes were lost here
Along the way from morning to night
Silently we wander
Into this void of consequence
My shade will always haunt her
But she will be my guiding light."
For a short time on Pekopon an all female platoon had shown up to challenge them. Since it was a one on one challenge they had somehow found themselves in a tie. Because of this the platoon had chosen to stay on Pekopon until the matter could be resolved. While there they decided to continue their work as morale officers and frequently went to the underground alien market to perform different shows. Once in a while they would show off the special technology the Keron army had given them, turning into humans or other aliens to amuse the crowd.
Fondly Keroro remembered the times she had impressed the crowds by turning into a cute Japanese girl with short mahogany hair. Always an entertainer she would smile, dance, sing, and laugh. Bringing happiness to those that watched her platoon perform. But now that Keroro thought back to those times he had never really paid attention to any of them; any of them but her.
For the longest time he had asked himself why he loved to get under her skin, why he was always trying to be in her personal space, and why he always felt happier when she finally snapped and retaliated. Now, in her absence, he realized what his heart had been trying to tell him. He loved her. Sherara had been the light and joy in his life when her platoon had graced their lives.
Images of her flashed through his mind as tears began to stream down his face. An emerald green hat trimmed with white lace, sleek azure blue body, and those smiling amber eyes. No matter how angry she was with him, no matter how upset, she would always smile in the end and call him an idiot. But he knew she never truly believed it. Only once had she told him what she truly felt about him, and that had been disappointment. Hearing a sound behind him he wiped his face, let his expression go cold, and turned to see who had disturbed him. Standing in a proper salute was Giroro-Chui.
"General Sir, the World Leaders are ready to speak with you. Ambassador Fuyuki is already waiting with them." Nodding curtly he gave Giroro a small smile. They had come far in such a short time. As the red Keronjin left him alone he turned to look out at the rain again.
"Look what I have accomplished in your absence. Please return; then you wont be disappointed in me anymore... Sherara." Placing the General's hat atop his head he left, turning out the light as he went and leaving the room in darkness.
