All for Goku.
We
fought for him. We forfeited our lives for him. We betrayed everyone
and everything for him.
At least, that's what it looked
like.
But that's not what it was.
When I first met
him, I was nothing. I was lost in a world of seduction and lust, no
true fulfillment available in such actions. He needed someone to take
care of him. Someone to love him. I wanted to fill that space for
him. For the first time, I could feel complete. This man's company
made the difference. And I knew he felt the same way about me.
But,
for all that, we could never admit, even to each other, how we felt.
Those feelings were taboo, and many before us were prosecuted for it.
A general and his marshal? It could never happen. We both hid our
feelings, not daring to breathe a word in fear that someone might
find out.
Then the golden-eyed boy showed up. He become like a
child to us, we took care of him and played with him. Through this
heretical being, we grew so close, so in love, that it became
agonizing. We could no longer bear to hide it. So young, we had so
much left in our lives...but neither of us wanted any of it without
the other.
We are so young
Our lives have just
begun
But already we are considering
Escape from this
world
We devised a plan. A way to immortalize our love
forever, a way to prevent anyone from separating us. A way to get
just one night, no repercussions. That one night...it would be worth
it.
And we've waited for so long
For this moment to
come
We're so anxious to be together
After that one
night, we would leave this world. If things went right, we'd leave
in each others arms.
Together...in death
A
moment came soon enough. An order that the child, our child, with
golden eyes, was to die. We fought for him, we fought hard. But we
fought knowing that it would bring about our death. We would die
without leaving anyone. After all, we would die as heretics, and no
one misses a heretic. Betraying everyone, everything we knew, so that
we wouldn't have to betray each other. Heaven would bring us
nothing but more agonizing pain.
The world is a cruel
place
And we're here only to lose
But we could beat
that. We could be together for all eternity.
So before
life tears us apart, let
Death bless me with you
It
hadn't quite gone as we planned. By the time we hit the final
night, we had doomed two other people. My superior, Gojun, and the
Merciful Goddess' niece, Konzen, chose to fight with us. As wrong
as I knew it was, though...it felt so right.
Our night
came...and it was the best night of my life. My angel and I spent the
whole night together, hiding none of our emotions. Knowing even that
when we woke up, we would die. To look at him, to touch, to taste...it
was indeed the most wonderful feeling in the world. We were
free!
And we still are. I'm lying next to him, his hand in
mine. All I can see is red. I can hardly breathe. I've never felt
such immense pain as right now.
Join me in death
But
I've never felt such happiness either. Our dream is coming true.
I'll be with him eternally.
My darling, my angel...
My
Tenpou.
