Disclaimer: -sigh- no ...can't I have...one?...just...Nakkie...or Tomo!...looks
hopeful PLEASE!
Author's Notes: I dunno what to say...I'm hoping to make this chapter a
little longer hopefully...I'll do my best...and I didn't want Tomo to die,
but...oh! I think maybe a few people didn't get what happened to him. His
wounds from Suboshi came back...and even though no one wants to admit it they
were fatal...poor guy...holds Tomo sadly
Soi gritted her teeth "Last time I was there you said it was opening!" she yelled through the phone. =I didn't know getting a church would be THIS frustrating! = She was glad for once her powers had abandoned her. If not this whole place would be crackling with her electricity. She rolled her eyes at the mans excuses "I just want to know...is there or is there not one?!" she said doing her best to control her temper. Nodding a small smile of victory came across her face. "Thank you...yes that's perfect! Alright...thanks again" =for nothing= she added mentally "goodbye!" she hung up the phone and flumped into a chair. Sighing she rubbed her forehead. =I'll trade Nakago jobs...= she reached down and picked up a clipboard. She scanned it, and scratched off a couple things. "...Church, flower girl, bridesmaids...hmmm...best man..." she thought tapping the pencil against the clipboard. =I wonder whom Nakkie will pick...= she pondered muddled. A loud knock awoke her from her reverie. "Hn?" she glanced at the clock and slowly walked to the door. "Soi!" Nakago said breathlessly embracing her (try saying that five times fast!). "N-Nakago?" she questioned wrapping her arms around his neck, "What is it?" he seemed troubled for some reason and she couldn't help but frown at his worried expression. He held her awhile seemingly reassured. "I...never mind...how's everything going?" she decided not to delve, mostly because he wouldn't tell her if she asked anyways, but mostly because she was just contented to see him.
They sat going over things they still needed to accomplish. "One of my associates suggested a flower shop...it sounds fairly reasonable..." Nakago suggested, "Nothing is perfect is it?" she asked him jokingly. "You are," he said laughing at how corny it sounded. She laughed along with him. She curled up next to him happily. =I can't lose her again...maybe it was just Tomo...maybe Seiryu can hold us together...= the thought saddened him. He held her close realizing how soon they would be united. =She feels so warm...= she sighed against him nuzzling into his chest. =He could never separate us...nothing can...not anymore...she'll never leave me= he smiled at ease.
Something awoke him in the night. He felt for Soi and found her body next to him her soft skin felt like silk against him. He brought her closer to himself, she moaned pleasingly and grappled her arms around his chest and kissed his neck lightly. =What was it? = He questioned himself, =what woke me up...she's fine and so am I...so...= He pressed Soi against him a little more and closed his eyes. =I must still be worried over what happened this morning...there's nothing to be scared of anymore though...= he hoped the thought would make him feel better but unfortunately it didn't. He eventually drifted back to sleep more through exhaustion than anything else.
Soi felt a sharp pain in her back. She did her best to ignore it, but it grew intensely. "Nnn!" she moaned writhing in pain. She sat up slowly so as not to wake her beloved, whom had just fallen back asleep. She touched the spot and was shocked to find it wet. She felt the pain drive deep within her. A small sound came from her throat; she fell back in bed as she felt the life leave her. Nakago woke up slowly. "What is it?" he asked stroking her cheek. "N-Nak-ago..." she said feebly. "Soi?" he questioned her sitting up and taking her in his arms. He felt something thick and wet on his skin. He paled guessing what it was. "S-Soi...are you...please God no..." he closed his eyes putting his hand on the small of her back. It came back dripping with blood; he felt his heart break again. "I'm...sorry...I..." she struggled to finish the sentence, "Never meant to.... let you down...again..." "No..." he said lowering his head, "You aren't letting me down...it isn't your fault...just...know that I love you...maybe...I'll be with you soon...". She coughed and moaned again "Aishite—"she shuddered once more and went limp. Tears gently streamed down his face. "What will I do now?..." he questioned himself knowing sleep wouldn't come again tonight. He leaned his head against hers sobbing quietly.
Amiboshi was shocked at what Tasuki told him over the phone. "I...I'm sorry..." Tasuki said. Amiboshi didn't respond he was horrified. =Am I? = He began to ask himself, =No= he thought grinning from the irony. =I lived...= he was suddenly disgusted with himself. =Tomo...= he "I'm sorry you had to witness what my brother had done to him then...I hope...well...have a good evening" he said hanging up hurriedly as he felt his face burning with compassion. =Why him?...why know?...what is it Seiryu? Hwy can't we ever be happy? = He heard Tomo's words come to his ears and let the tears fall.
Tasuki hung up the receiver at the incessant moan of the dial tone. The image was still fresh in his mind. He closed his eyes to try and rid himself of it =, but it only made it worst. He sat down roughly. "Tomo" he said the name, which now seemed empty. He let out a small sigh as emotion took over. =It seemed like such a normal day...what'll his buddies think? = He felt another wave of utter pain and sorrow sweep over him. He tried to swallow the lump in his throat. He could still hear Tomo's luscious, purring voice in his ear; feel his shimmering midnight hair sweep his cheek lightly. =Why can't there ever be such a thing as perfect...why is it 'or' and not 'and', why do good things always end? = He questioned philosophically. He drew his legs to his chest and sobbed loudly into his knees.
(Yes...sniffle everyone sniff ends up sob crying...and I'm not sorry! This is such a sad chapter. I'm sorry if it sounds really corny, but I wanted to show how all the characters reacted to the loss. This might just be the last chapter...unless you want me to do one more...I'll let you decide! so please review and tell me what you think! Ja ne!...and sorry Soi...that must've hurt...and Nakkie...please don't chi blast me...hides)
