'Famous Last Words' – My Chemical Romance
Now I know
That I can't make you stay
But where's your heart?
But where's your heart?
But where's your...
And I know
There's nothing I can say
To change that part
To change that part
To change...
So many
Bright lights, they cast a shadow
But can I speak?
Well is it hard understanding
I'm incomplete
A life that's so demanding
I get so weak
A love that's so demanding
I can't speak
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
Can you see
My eyes are shining bright
Cause I'm out here
On the other side
Of a jet black hotel mirror
And I'm so weak
Is it hard understanding
I'm incomplete
A love that's so demanding
I get weak
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
These bright lights have always blinded me
These bright lights have always blinded me
I say
I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I'd never speak
Awake and unafraid
Asleep or dead
(How can I see, I see you lying) 'Cause I see you lying next to me
(How can I see, I see you lying) With words I thought I'd never speak
(How can I see, I see you lying) Awake and unafraid
(How can I see, I see you lying) Asleep or dead
'Cause I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I'd never speak
Awake and unafraid
Asleep or dead
'Cause I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I'd never speak
Awake and unafraid
Asleep or dead
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
(Or dead)
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
(Or dead)
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
(Or dead)
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
(Or dead)
I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
(Or dead)
Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
It has been a few days since Sasuke learned that he still had family left. In fact he had no idea what to do with himself. The group met Baa-chan (Who is around Tsunade's age) and Jii-chan (who is around Jiraiya's age), the two older people that is very caring. The two of them saved Hiroko when she came wandering on the beach and nursed her back to help. They housed Shisui, Izumi and Hana for years as well. And they welcomed more children. They could never have any of their own, sadly. Baa-chan was one of the first people with the one of kind Kekkei Genkai. And she was about to explain to Akira, Ronin and Miki about it.
"Well, the Kekkei Genkai is a disorder called Ketsueki no sono Horobita (Blood of the Ruined). You cannot produce children and will be feared everywhere you go," said Baa-chan. "Mine is called Yobu no Ketsui Yaseino (Call of Wild Will). I can call any animal to my aid."
"That's useful," said Sasuke.
"If your one of the first ones how did you find out about the reproduction problem," said Akira.
"I lost two babies in miscarriage and the one I was going to have was born still born," said Baa-chan, tears welling up in her eyes. She really wanted a child. "It was going to be a girl too."
"We see Hiroko, Izumi, Shisui, and Hana as our surrogate children and Tai, Hikari, Chi as are grandchildren," said Jii-chan.
"That's sweet," said Miki.
" Uncle Sasuke," said Tai, coming up to the Uchiha. He was very uncomfortable around his brother's children. Especially since Tai looked exactly Itachi, the girls looked more like Hiroko—Hikari was a mini-Hiroko and Chi had black hair like Mikoto's and yellow eyes like Hiroko's.
"Er, yes," replied Sasuke, uneasily.
"How long are you staying here," asked Tai.
"I don't know," said Sasuke.
"Actually," said Naruto. " Hiroko, Shisui, and Baa-chan had offered to train the five of us for the rest of the time of our training tirp."
"And you decided this for all of us," asked Sasuke. "Who died and made you leader?"
"Oh shut up Sasuke," said Naruto. "I figured that you would want to spend time with Shisui and the kids, but we can leave tomorrow if you want."
"NO," yelled Hikari and Chi, "You are going to stay here if you like it or not you understand Uncle Sasuke, Naruto-nii-chan, Akira-san, Miki-chan and Ronin-san." All this was said completely creepy in monotone voice.
"Eh," said the five.
"Hikari, Chi no sadistic thoughts," said Hiroko, reprimanding her daughters.
"But Haha-ue," said Hikari and Chi. "It's practice."
"You want practice," said Hiroko. "Tai, Hikari, Chi 10 laps around the island with 5 more grams of weights on."
"Haha-ue," complained the three.
"Do you want more," asked Hiroko.
"Going," said Tai, dragging his sisters outside.
"Damn Hiroko, aren't you a bit hard on them," asked Naruto.
"Are they your children Naruto? I think not," said Hiroko, with glare. "They need to be strong for half demons, so when I'm not around in years to come that they could kill full demons at least B classed."
"Kyuubi says those standards are too high for half demons," said Naruto.
"Remember with the demonic training they'll have ninja training too," said Hiroko. "Tai already has the Sharingan activated."
"Are you serious," asked Sasuke. "That's amazing."
"However I don't think that Hikari and Chi will be able to activate it for a while longer," said Hiroko. "Itachi mentioned that it takes longer in girls to activate than boys."
"I guess it's settled then," said Ronin. "Well have the three of them train us and we can give Sasuke more time with his family."
"Can I watch the kids train," asked Sasuke.
"Go ahead," said Hiroko. "And if they talk tell me."
"You're such a brutal mother," said Naruto.
"Che," said Hiroko. "I just hope Sasuke gets over his discomfort around the kids."
"Well, teme has never pegged me as a children person," said Naruto. "But I mean he's in love with Sakura-chan and I'm sure he wants kids."
"My Sakura-imouto and Sasuke, how cute," said Hana.
"Yeah but he's just being a chicken," said Naruto, with an eye roll.
"Hah! Just like Itachi," said Hiroko. "Anyway I'm going out. I'll be back later." The others waved bye to Hiroko, who always left the house by herself for about an hour everyday. Outside Sasuke watched as Tai, Hikari and Chi finish their laps in record time.
"So Uncle Sasuke I presume is staying," said Tai.
"You talk very good for being young," said Sasuke.
"Yeah well Haha-ue," said Tai, "three days a week teaches us history of different places, languages, basic arithmetic and algebra, and philosophy. Everyday she gives us exercises to train our body and become stronger."
"I'm impressed," said Sasuke.
"It was Chichi-ue's idea in the first place after he learned how much knowledge Haha-ue contained in her mind," said Hikari and Chi. Right they're Itachi's offspring too. Hiroko seems like a good mother for a demon thought Sasuke.
"How was Itachi as a father," asked Sasuke.
"Well, I remember him always talking to me about things," said Tai.
"He played with us as well, like blocks and such," replied Hikari and Chi. "But he wasn't around that much. But when he came he was always nice."
"Unless he had a psychotic break and Haha-ue had to knock him out," said Tai.
"Aa," said Sasuke. These kids were something. Just another thing Itachi has beaten me to, having children and possible geniuses as well thought Sasuke. It was a bit funny to him though.
"Hana-itoko and Shisui-itoko will be good parents too," said Hikari and Chi. It seemed that the twins always talked together.
"Right," said Sasuke.
"Tai, Hikari, Chi," said Shisui. "Could I speak with Sasuke alone now? So do 10 more laps."
"Yes itoko," said the three.
"I help train them too," said Shisui. "So I haven't seen you in awhile. You look good."
"I understand that you love Hana, but why did you have to fake your death," asked Sasuke.
"Because I couldn't stand to be in the Uchiha clan anymore as did Itachi," said Shisui. "It was becoming as corrupt as the Hyuuga, something that Mandra-jii-sama wouldn't have wanted. He wanted all those people that were rejected to be able to find solace in the Uchiha clan, that was until someone killed his beloved Hana."
"I know that, I have the journal," said Sasuke. "Did Hana and Mandra have kids?"
"Yes our grandfather, great aunt, and great uncle," said Shisui.
"I see," said Sasuke. "Well, if you're happy then I can't complain."
"Thanks," said Shisui. "Now, I'm going to help train the three little ones, while Baa-chan talks to Ronin, Akira and Miki some more." Shisui left Sasuke alone. He was once again joined by another person.
"So teme what do you think," said Naruto.
"I think Itachi was an idiot for not staying here," said Sasuke. "He would be alive."
"But you would still be an avenger and know none of this," said Naruto. "Plus I'm pretty sure Itachi is at peace now just like the rest of your family."
"Aa, so how long will we stay," asked Sasuke.
"A couple of years," said Naruto. "Then we'll go back to Konoha." Sasuke nodded and guessed that it would be a few interesting years here. Fast forward to the point of departure of the group… Not only did the group have Naruto, Sasuke, Akira, Ronin, and Miki, but now included Shisui, Hana and their baby Akari. Hiroko and the three kids were staying on the island. Baa-chan, Jii-chan, and Izumi would be heading out to Konoha in a few months time.
"Behave and be careful," said Hiroko.
"Bye," said Tai, Hikari, and Chi.
"Be safe," said Baa-chan.
"We'll see you in a few months," said Jii-chan. And then the group of now seven headed off. Shisui was carrying the baby, while Hana was being carried by Sasuke for she wasn't a ninja. This was going to be an interesting reunion in Konoha.
'Heaven Help Us' – My Chemical Romance
Hear the sound
The angels come screaming
Down your voice
I hear you've been bleeding
Make your choice Cause I'll give you all the nails you need Cause I'll give you all the nails you need
They say you've been pleading
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down
I'm at this old hotel
But can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
Or screaming or waiting for the man to call
And maybe all of the above
Cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps
While spitting out the blood and screaming
"Someone save us!"
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down
And will you pray for me?
Or make a saint of me?
And will you lay for me?
Or make a saint of?
Cover me in gasoline
Wipe away those tears of blood again
And the punch line to the joke is asking
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you fall
And would you pray for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins)
Or make a saint of me?
(You don't know
So I'm burning, I'm burning)
And will you lay for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins)
Or make a saint?
(You don't know
Cause I'm burning, I'm burning)
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
Cover me in gasoline again
