Disclaimer: What are the kanji for "I do not own Fushigi Yuugi"?

A/N: Hehehe, this one was kinda fun to write. If you detect a change in writing style about two-thirds down, it's because I started this one with the others but finished it at Tasuki-chan's birthday party. I don't think it's that noticeable, but.. ah, whatever. Heeeeeeeeere's Chiriko!
(why do I keep wanting to type Chichiri?)


REACTIONS V- CHIRIKO


Nuriko was... I'm not sure. Maybe he was a fool. I know he was brave, reckless, and a savior to us all. If he hadn't gone ahead, and killed Ashitare, then Ashitare would have killed Miaka instead. But still, in my heart, I grieve for him.
Nuriko was a good friend, and he treated me like a normal boy, made me feel normal, and I could never hope to repay him for that. His kindness... he barely knew me, and yet he treated me like a well-known friend. And now he's gone. Gone like a leaf in the wind, and I can't ever catch him and bring him back. Gone like a whisper of the wind, or the last light before the darkness.
I could never hope to repay him for all that he has done for me, even if he had lived. He did so much, he'll never know how important he was to me.
For perhaps the first time in my life, I feel like crying. Crying like a real child. Crying like the child I would be if I weren't a seishi. Crying like I don't care what the others think.
I want him to come back, and no matter how much I tell myself that he can't come back and he's never going to...
I want him to come back, even though it's impossible.
For once I just want to... cry.

A/N: Wow. And wow again. Chiriko uses a lot of metaphors, huh? I like it. Oh well. I added a little to this one, but not soooo much. Hehe. Please review! Up next... Mitsukake! Or Eats-a-cookie, as I call him.
