I am a terrible listener. Everyone knows this, even Aiton. What Aiton doesn't know is that he's the only one who can get me to listen. A fic that looks back on Aiton's death in the original Patapon game, from Makoton's point of view.

SPOILERS- Gong ponders the intent of the Patapons in his last moments.

This is my version of the story of Shadow the Hedgehog and Maria Robotnik. This story is extremely intense, and is not recommended for readers who are especially sensitive to tragedy or tend to cry over the story of Shadow and Maria.
