Disclaimer: I do not own flame of Recca. And I am not making a cent out of this.

The Song used here is 304 goushitsu, hakushi no sakura (Room 304, cheery blossoms of white death) by Dir en Grey .

[This would be the lyrics of the song ]

While



(This would be the translation of it)



----------Hospital----------

'It is not true. . ." Tokiya thought silently to himself, as he walk step by step to the hospital room Renge was in. "What Kurenai said. . . It's coming true!"





'Renge. . .'



'Don't leave me. . ..'





'Not after what I've done to Fuuko. . .'





'In order to be with you. . .'



'I've hurt Fuuko so deeply..'





'I can never face her again. . .'





'Renge......'



Like a zombie, he moved along until he reached the room where Renge lies. . . Room 304. . . Opening the door slowly, he peeped in to see Renge, pale and laying in bed. Not like the hyper girl he knew. . . A doctor stood over her. Tokiya dragged himself in, and meet with the doctor.. . . "How is she?" He asked.





"Not too good, I'm afraid.. . ." was the doctor's reply. "She can't even remember people now. Her foster parents too.. . . And ,sad to say, this girl won't live to see tomorrow. . ."



"No. . ." Tokiya said, and look again at the Renge sleeping in bed, her eyes seems to open a little, searching for people around her. In a spilt second, Tokiya rushed to her side, and held onto her hand.. . .. The nurse opened up the window, to review a small Sakura tree outside the window.. . .



[mado kara itsumo to kawarazu sakura ga kaze ni





yurari yurari yurari yurari to mau]



(from the window the ever unchanging cherry blossoms





Flutter flutter flutter flutter and dance in the breeze)







"Renge?" Tokiya asked. The poor girl's eyes found his, at last, but they look so lost...



"Anata no. . .. Dare desu ka?" She asked. (Who are you?)





[ishiki ga kyou mo usure yuku



kimi wa dare? nani mo omoidasenai



boku no te wo tori chikaratsuyoku



nigitteru te ni namida ga kobore ochita yo]







( today, too, my consciousness fades away



who are you? I cannot remember anything



my tears overflowed and fell



onto your hand clutching mine reassuringly)







"I am. . ."Tokiya answered her, slowly, trying to fight back the tears in his eyes.. . .. "Tokiya Mikagami. . .. Some one who loves you a lot. . ."



"Honto? Gomen.. .. .. Wasure..." Renge tried to answer. (Really? Sorry, I for. . .)



"Shhh.." Tokiya said, and place his fingers onto Renge's soft lips, like how he did at the orphanage. . . Then finally, let his tears row down, and rain onto her hand.







[tomedonaku nagaredasu hitomi wa nani ka wo katatte ita



kimi no kaori naze ka natsukashii youna...



kono heya de kitto boku wa hitori de inochi nakusu no darou



dare mo mitsukeru koto no dekinai hana wo...]



(your unending stream of tears told me something



for some reason the scent of you brings memories...



surely I will lose my life all alone, in this room



these flowers that no-one can find...)



[chiri isogu hana kaze ni yurarete shiroi byoushitsu kaze ni fukarete]



( the flowers fall quickly, swaying in the breeze this white hospital room blows with the breeze)





"But. . .. If you really are. . . someone I love. . . Then thank you.. .. . for loving me. . . And I know. . .. That I must had.. . .Loved you too. . ..Sorry that. . . I could not stay. . . by your side forever. . ."



"Don't say that, Renge. .. ." Tokiya pleased, and held her closer to him, embracing her with his warm. Then, slowly, he lift up her face to meet his, then gently lower his head, so that their lips meet. He gave Renge her first kiss... . . And her last, as when they break away from each other, Renge smiled, one last time, and breathed her final breath. . .



[itami ga hibi wo kasaneru tabi



yase yuku minikui karada dakishimeta ne



saigo ni natte hitotsu taisetsuna hito wo omoidashita



ashita ni wa hai ni nari suna ni kaeru yo



mado kara mieru sakura ano sakura no shita de nemuritai



atatakaku tsutsunda kimi no te no naka de....



sanmaruyon goushitsu shizuka ni hakobarete yuku naka de



nido to kimi wo wasurenu you ni]







(the pain building up day by day



you held my thinning, ugly body close to you





at my time of death, there's one special person I remembered



tomorrow I'll become ashes, return to dust



from the window I can see the cherry blossoms beneath those cherry blossoms I want to sleep



wrapped in warmth in your hand....



they carry me quietly from room 304



so that I will never forget you)



"No! Renge!!!!!!!" Tokiya screamed, one last time, her name. At this point, Kurei walked in, to hear the single, long beep from a machine. . . Renge is gone. . . And soon, Kurenai will return. . .



"Good bye, Renge. . ." Kurei whispered, and exit the room. .. Surprised that he too, felt the pain in his heart, and he was not as happy as he though he would be, knowing that soon Kurenai will rise from the grave.

[kore kara boku wa sakura to tomo ni kaze ni yurarete kimi wo omoidasu]



(from here on, I sway in the breeze, together with the cherry blossoms, remembering you)





[yurari to yurari to



yurari to yurari to]



(fluttering fluttering



fluttering fluttering)





A/N: How's that for an ending? Haha ... . . Little plot, I know, but it seems that the song is more than enough to tell the story. Maybe U guys want to try reading this while listening to the song, that sent tears down my eyes once. There's another chapter, but it's pretty lame. I'm the kind of person who believes that story should end happily, so the last chapter is to make me feel better about killing off my fave Flame Of Recca character.
