Nihao!! Here's the second part and I hope you like it. But keep in mind
that this story is not chronological, it will consist of fragments that
describe several feelings of our favorite namaguza bouzu. Plz R&R, feedback
is very important to me. Thx to the people that commented!
Two: Song of the moon
In all this cool is the moon also sleeping? There, in the pool?
-Ryusui
This waka* I've read in a newspaper almost immediately springs to my mind as I gaze in wonder at the unearthly beautiful scenery in front of my eyes. The lake in front of me is bathed in the shimmering light of the full moon that floats high above in the velvet sky. Why is it that the moon has always had a soothing effect on me?
The reason why I'm sitting out here gazing at the moon is rather simple. I just couldn't sleep. In the back of my mind a small voice tells me to get back to bed for it will be a strenuous day tomorrow, but I'm held captive by the beauty of the dim and soft moonlight on the lake near the inn we're staying at. In fact nobody would think of me, the cold and corrupt priest, as impressionable to such things as the beauty of nature. But I can't help to feel soothed and calmed at this sight.
I take a cigarette and a lighter out of the wide sleeve of my silken robe and flick the wheel so that the lighter produces a small flame. Smoking, I continue to absorb the calm and almost serene atmosphere. I inhale the smoke, as I always do. Clouds of pearl-gray smoke float up and veil the moon for a moment before they dissolve into thin air. I throw my cigarette away and step on it. Suddenly, smoking doesn't feel right, almost it seems to me as an insult to the peaceful landscape and the moon.
Gokû keeps telling me that I "shine" like the sun. You are my "sun", his eyes speak to me everytime I look into his clear golden orbs. If that is true and I am indeed like the sun, than why do I prefer the soft light of the moon over the radiant and hot rays of the sun?
I think the answer is that the moon possesses the one thing that the sun lacks, or more precise, the one thing the sun has lost.
Suddenly I am seized by melancholy and the sight of the silver disk of the moon fills my heart with yearning.
Oh my! This was so OOC, wasn't it? But on the other hand, who knows what Sanzô thinks when he's alone? Hope it wasn't too bad and the symbols are understandable ( I think they're simple enough and since Minekura-sensei used them too, everyone should be able to get the meaning of it)! Don't forget to R&R!! ^_^
-Female Sanzou
*waka: predecessor of the haiku. waka consisted of 5 lines with 31 syllables (5-7-5-7-7) I just love waka and prefer them over haiku and since it fitted so nicely with Sanzô's character I put it into my story! ^_^
