AN: The Suzaku seishi are made to sound bad because .well, Nakago didn't really LIKE them ya know? I know that Tomo "cared" for Nakago, but right now Tomo isnt in this fic. Sorry Tomo fans.Melissa like flashbacks! ^_^ well, it makes sense! I know that Nakago wouldn't tremble now, but he was a little kid back then! No training! And I made most of this up, not much relation to the real thing.i made Nakago cruel in this one, but hey. he had undergone training for this and he didn't seem to care much when he killed aishitare.

Tamahome of the Suzaku seishi came right at me, his fist back, getting ready for the blow that would kill me.there was no dout about it. As much as I hate to admit it, he was strong and also had the strength of his miko and fellow seishi, even the dead ones.I.I was tired and worn out, even though I didn't show it. I had no seishi besides me and the only one who cared for me was dead, also at the hands of a Suzaku warrior. As his fist came closer and closer, my whole life passed before my eyes.
**flashback**
The soldiers were surrounding a woman, the screams were loud and defeaning. A young Nakago is in the doorway,trembling.
"Mother.?"
Nakago couldn't even see his mother, the soldiers were crowding around her.All he heard were his mother's screams..
"Let my mother GO!!!!!!!!!"
The young Nakago yelled and pulled at one of the soldier's leg. All he got in return was a rough push and he fell back against a wall. There was a crunching noise and Nakago felt his arm break. He groaned and sat up slowly. Rage was building inside of him. How dare they do that to my mother.how dare they push me around.they have NO RIGHT!!
"DON'T GO NEAR MY MOTHER EVER AGAIN!!!!!"
He screamed, suddenly releasing a large blue chi blast that shook the whole house.then, silence. He looked up from the rubble around him. Nakago stood up wearily. What had he done?! The soldiers' bodies lay sprawled everywhere.and on the bed.
"Mother.? Wake up.MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!"
Nakago beat on his mother's body, but it was no use. she was dead. And it was him that caused it.
He sniffled and got up. //I had just tried to protect you.not kill you. I'm so sorry.forgive me.//
**end flashback #1, start #2**
Aishitare had brought him the Shinzaho.also killing a Suzaku seishi.very good. Very good indeed. but he was of no use now. He would just be a burden to the Seiyruu side. Well.it was up to him to do the dirty work again.
Nakago sighed. When had he turned to be this emotionless?"when your mother died." a voice inside him said, but he shook it off. It wasn't nice to keep ashitare waiting.
**flashback #3**
Soi's limp body lay cold on his horse as Nakago rode aimlessly. WHY had she jumped in front of him? //I shouldn't have just stood still like that.even if I WAS surprised! I was TRAINED to be quick.and now see what it cost me.//
He was trying to find the right spot to bury her but there was no good spot. She had liked flowers, that I knew. But where were there flowers? Nakago kept wandering until I do found a patch of flowers just like the ones my mother liked. Nakago started to dig with his bare hands until it formed a crude form of a grave.
He slowly and gently put Soi's body inside and took one last look at her.
"Wo ai ni.forever. Bye."
**end flashbacks**
I felt the impact of his fist going right through me. I gasped and fell down on my knees, huffing at the pain of it all.//is this what soi felt?she showed no emotion.not like me right now.// he said to himself. He gasped twice.then took his last breath.
Nakago's spirit started floating upwards.then halted. Two figures appeared in front of him. a woman with blond hair and blue eyes, his mother.. and Soi. He looked startled, then remembered that he was dead. There was something wrong. His mother was draped in white and had wings. Obviously heaven, no dout. She had done good for as long as he could remember. Soi.she was bloody and had a sad look on her face. Hell? Could it be? But.oh yes. Even the smallest sins. She had used her power on other human beings cruely, like the Suzaku no miko and her seishi. I see. but then. why are they here? I should be in hell shouldn't I? I have done way more wrong than Soi.
"Nakago my dear son," my mother spoke with a ringing noise in her voice." You should be in hell right now, but I have been pleading ever since I got to heaven and if you choose, you may go to heaven too. It is your choice. Me. or her?"
Nakago looked at them both. Soi smiled sadly and his mother looked at him expectantly.
"well?" she asked.
Nakago nodded.
"I have chosen. "
