Chapitre 175
-So I'll wait (I'll wait) for the ambulance to come (ambulance to come) pick us up off the floor…what did you possibly expect under this condition?-
Chaos could hardly begin to describe it.
The group of travelers had been swept up into a whirlwind of events as of late, fighting for their lives, reuniting with friends (and foes), and uncovering secrets that they could scarcely dream about. Now the only ones left were the ninja, the mage, and their guide, forced to watch the others battle desperately to kill each other amidst a flurry of cherry blossoms.
So much has changed, Kurogane mused as the chaos started to die down. His thoughts were very true; Fai had become a vampire, Syaoran lost his 'heart', Sakura's soul vanished entirely, and Kurogane himself had a mechanical arm replacing his flesh one.
Yet some things remained the same. Fai was as reckless as usual, Syaoran and Kurogane were still headstrong, and Sakura and Mokona would always support everyone in their efforts.
As the tree branches stopped their rustling, Kurogane was surprised to see a clear gold eye looking up at him.
Fai hadn't left. He was still there; in the past, he would've tried to save the others again, even if he killed himself trying.
Kurogane dropped down to Fai's branch. "Aren't you going after 'em?"
"I have no magic power anymore. Besides…even if I had it…I'd wait…no matter how painful that might be!"
Fai smiled sadly.
-There was nothing we could do.-
A/N: I actually feel pretty good about this one. :) Although I don't normally put disclaimers on my stories (an overall one's on my profile), the lines at the beginning and end, as well as the chapter's title, belong to Jack's Mannequin-the song is indeed called 'Dark Blue'-and you should check it out. It's pretty good.
Speaking of which, has anyone seen what Funimation's done with the OVA dubs? On Youtube, osakakitty has put up bits of the dub...here's the link to her profile: http: / www. youtube. com/ user/ osakakitty (just remove the spaces). Go Chris and Vic!
