Author's note: To anyone who is reading this and waiting for the sequel to and the answer is. I lost the file a few weeks ago and am planning on rewriting it, but due to school and another project it may take a while to get up, but I promise you I'll do my best to make it worth the Looooooooooooooooooooooooooong wait. For now this is my new pet project. I promise updates will be better then my other works. -=Hangs head in shame=- I'm such a bad author. Oh, and for with a twist, yes, I know it's messed up and am going to fix it and repost it. -=Ponders what warnings she should have for this fic=- Well, first off, spoilers because this is a post X series fic and deals with that. . . a little. Yes, it is a humor fic even if it is X ^^. Please review, I love feedback and sadly I don't get much. -=Weeps, then broods=-Oh, and there's mild pantslessness and probably nakedness as well, however there is no strong citric content. However there is mild ^^.

Disclaimer: I don't own X, in fact, nothing is mine except a broken down laptop and a Piece of junk tower. . . oh, and a love for Hiyama and Li -=Snuggles her plushies=- So don't sue me. Oh, I own the patented powder blue apron too -=Waves it around=-. . . I think.

Waking the dead



His feet fell gently on the sakura petal covered ground, petals crushing quietly and staining the brown dirt a pale pink as he passed. Words he had heard ages earlier rang through his mind, "under every tree there's a human body." He said quietly under his breath, and he knew that it was true now. Under every one of the trees was a body of a dragon. Those that had died now held a place of remembrance . . . except for the one man he wanted to remember. On days like this, when the sun was hidden behind clouds and rain trickled lightly over the sakura garden he missed Seisheriou the most. These were his Sakura after all. Subaru could not help but feel like he was only tending them in his loves absence. Love. He pondered the word and what it meant to him, particularly regarding Sei-chan. For years, he tried to keep himself from thinking those words in the same sentence. How could he feel that way about the man who had done such awful things, the man who had killed his sister? But when he had told him . ., when he had died, Subaru had known that he loved him. He sighed deeply as he looked to the trees that surrounded him, dropping pale pink petals about the ground. He walked to Seisheriou's tree, holding in his hands a single red rose. Red meant love in the language of flowers they said; he placed it by his tree knowing that it was only a token gesture. Seisheriou's body wasn't under the tree in reality. In reality they had never been able to find the body of the man he loved. Remaining on his knees he heaved a sigh and murmured to the empty grave, "Is this what you wanted for me? Is this what my 'wish' has gotten me? In the end, all I really wanted was you." He shook his head, he was fighting the tears again as he stood and made his way from the trees, his trees. Why had it had to come to this, but then Sei-chan's final words rang inside his brain. "I wanted to grant your wish because I love you." Subaru let the tears fall as he murmured back. "Then why didn't you grant it and stay?"
