Time

By: fire demoness

we've gone on our journey,

fought our way out of tough times.

Had our deal of arguments,

Twists and turns,

Bumps along the road.

But we've never lost a seishi...

...yet.

when I first joined miaka,

to protect the miko,

as was the sworn destiny of every seishi,

I knew there was a chance I'd get seriously injured.

Lose a limb or two perhaps.

But death?

No.

I suppose I might have been thinking too much about Hotohori-sama to think about it,

But even so.

The realization just hit me here.

Lying in the cold cold snow.

Basked in sunlight,

But no warmth in my body,

Just the feel of my blood running from the hole in my stomach.

I see my puffs of breath coming out in the icy air.

I try to move a bit,

But I seem to have been frozen in place.

I suppose everyone has to go sooner or later...

I just wish mine could have been "later"

There's so much I want to do.

So much I want to know,

To experience.

But that's all been cut short now.

So many regrets...

Yet only one worth caring about.

I wish I could have told him.

Told him how great he was.

How wonderful

Caring

Sweet

And utterly perfect.

But it's not his time.

I'll watch over him in death,

Make sure he fulfills his destiny.

As mine has been cut short.

Gomen nasai everyone...

I have to go.
