The Common Denominator
Chapter Five- Around the Corner of Your Eye- Akira's Wish
By- Akira Maxwell
Authors Notes- I am Miko of da Shinigami. But I am also Akira Maxwell. This new fanfiction is quite a change from my usual style of writing, but it will always have a certain style that labels it- Miko's. Due to the change, however, I am going to post it under my new pen name, Akira Maxwell, who is also a key character in this story. I hope you all enjoy this and check out my sequel to Passing Destinies!!! (posted under Miko of da Shinigami!) And this uses the Japanese names…if you don't know them…ummmm…learn them real fast…^-^

(a/n-______) Akira's Notes
Scouts and Duo are 18ish…
Hotaru is 16
Setsuna- about 22 (looks) but is really, really old
Disclaimer- don't own gundam wing or sailor moon. Akira is mine, although with permission you may borrow her. The plot is mine, steal it and you have a date with your maker. Sorry, that was Duo's line. I guess those 4 tapes of episodes I watched this morning rubbed off. -_-0 I don't own Around the corner of your eye, it's a song by A-Teens…it's really good! ^-^

Akira sat on her cloud, looking down at Duo. It was like her punishment for existing, for giving up her duty. To have to watch the man she cared about most fall in love. 'If only he knew,' she thought, holding up her semi transparent hand to the blinding sun.
If you knew how many nights
I've been sitting by your bed
Running fingers through your hair
While you're asleep.
"Duo," she whispered. "I wish you knew that I died for you. Just to remember me, that's my wish."
Every time I call your name
Or softly whisper in your ear
You turn around to look for me
And no one's there
"I'll always be here, watching you grow old, watching you die. Both a gift and a curse, but at least you know I'll always be here."
Where ever you are
Where ever you go - I'll be around
I'll be around just want you to know
"You still hold my power, Shinigami-sama," she whispered. "And as long as you exist, I will always be here, even through my death. My angel will always watch over you."
If you're lost without me
Wondering where I might be
I'll be waiting just around the corner of your eye
Like an angel watching
Meet me when you're dreaming
I'll be waiting just around the corner of your eye
"Duo-sama…I feel so guilty for loving you. I feel so guilty for ruining your life, and hating myself for giving you a new one. All I want is for you to be happy. But with all my heart I want you to love me too."
I could be your pot of gold
Everything you're wishing for,
But do you really want to find
The rainbows end.
Let me know and I'll come true
I will give my all to you
But don't let anybody take
Your dream away
"Some one is coming, Duo-chan. He's going to take you back, and he's going to fail. Something is happening, love, and everyone will know who you are, and who she is. Saturn's Death, the end of your worlds."
Where ever you are
Where ever you go - I'll be around
I'll be around just want you to know
"Be careful, Duo, because…"
If you're lost without me
Wondering where I might be
I'll be waiting just around the corner of your eye
Like an angel watching
Meet me when you're dreaming
I'll be waiting just around the corner of your eye
"I will always love you."
There's a song playing in every heart beating
In a key that unlocks every door
There's a time for knowing what's behind the curtain
And it's all you're wishing for
Duo woke with a start, heart pounding. "Akira?"
