I heard this song and it totally struck me as a song for this couple. Sorta angsty, but what the heck? So is the anime…:P
(A/N: This is from episode 6 of the anime, when Saya…you know, dies .Sort of an account of Saya and Train's perspectives before and after.)
Oh and one more thing, in case you don't notice or understand, the song is in bold and italics. Kay?
Enjoy! Please review!

"Is it possible…to change our destiny?"
As she lies there, in his arms, bleeding, she knows it's over. She sees her future coming to an end; in minutes, possibly. And his future…she wonders, will there be an empty hole in it, where she should've been?
Empty frames,
Pictures torn apart,
No goodnight kisses anymore,
Oh…
Her eyes fill up with tears, blurring her vision, as she looks up to him, an expression filled with longing, regret and quiet desperation.
They both know it. They know it's the end. He yells at her not to speak that way. He tells her she'll be alright. But they both know, deep down. They know.
Her unsaid goodbye hangs on the tip of her tongue. But she realizes that the reason it's so hard to say goodbye is the other unspoken things that are now weighing down upon her heavily.
And goodbye, sweetie
Now I have to go
Remember me…
She feels it slipping away from her, too quickly for her liking. But maybe it's better this way. Maybe this is how it's supposed to happen. She lifts up her pale languid hands and places them on his gun, clutched in his sweaty, numb hand. She tightens her fingers around them. She tells him to never let go of it, no matter what; for she knows that her time is up. But she cares too much about him. She doesn't want to be a burden, even after she…leaves.
There is a better place that awaits me,
I'll see you there,
You've got the whole world,
Ahead of you…
And then it's over. Her hand falls down to the ground, and her eyes close, a lone silvery tear running down her cheek, as she expresses her final wish. Her final unfulfilled wish.
I'm sorry, I didn't say goodbye
I'm sorry that, I made you cry
And I'd make it up to you
If I had the chance to, oh…
He stares at her cold body. For a second, he doesn't believe. He can't believe. But then the reality of it all crashes over him like a terrible wave, sudden and drenching. He gently places her unmoving frame on the ground and stands up, whispering her name in a voice heavy with emotion.
What are we supposed to do?
When everything goes wrong
Is it possible,
To change our destiny?
Why did it happen? Why? Why? But it doesn't matter how many times he asks himself. The fact is that…it had. Everything he's ever been looking for- a friend, a loyal companion, maybe…maybe something more. It's all gone. All his hopes shattered, in an instant.
What are we supposed to do?
When everything right goes wrong
Destiny. What a beautiful, but terrifying word. Is this fate? Denying him everything he has ever hoped for? Is that all he is entitled to?
It's impossible,
To change our destiny
To change our destiny…
But even as he suffers, even as he hurts, he imagines that she is there. Watching over him, through it all. And waiting. Waiting to meet him there, one day.
There is a better place that awaits me,
I'll see you there,
You've got the whole world,
Ahead of you…
Ahead of you…
And until then, he'll keep moving forward. Keep going on until he can reach his final destination.
So that one day…they can reunite again, in a better place.
