AN: As I'm trying to expand my repertoire of anime fanfiction I'm starting to focus on those anime which I'm not quite practiced in. As always I hope you enjoy it, this is a one shot (though whenever I say that it ends up being a long chapter story due to reviewer request). Heh, enjoy.
The Way It Is
A Songfic-One Shot
I hold my breath
As this life
Starts to take it's toll
I hide behind a smile
As this perfect plan unfolds
But, oh, God
I feel I've been lied to
Lost all faith
In the things I have achieved
And I...
As I look into the sacred flame I can feel their eyes on my back. I'm the miko, the spiritual force of the Senshi. Sometimes I wonder if they realize how much of a burden that is, I doubt it. As Usagi-Chan chatters endlessly behind me I must tune her and my friends out in order to focus. But that's the way it always is, isn't it? For as long as I remember I've been blocking other people out…then I became a Senshi.
I've woken now
To find myself in the shadows
Of the lie I've created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Away from this place I'm in
Won't you take me away from me
In my heart I can still feel the remorse that this happened. That I was plucked from my life into being a Senshi plagues me in my sleep. It doesn't really matter, though. It is who I am now; there is no way of changing that. Even when we defeated Queen Metallia-sama and lost our memories, the Sailor Senshi ended up getting back together.
Crawling through this world
As disease flows through my veins
I look into myself but
My own heart has been changed
I can't go on like this
I loathe all I've become
Now I'm scrying to find Usagi's beloved Mamoru.
Mamoru…
Is she as naïve as to think that I've gotten over him so quickly? That my thoughts of him have been wiped from my mind? It's not that easy, it'll never be that easy. Yuichiro is gone now, so who do I have? I'm all alone, that is the way of the Senshi of Fire.
Lost in a dying world
I reach for something more
I have grown so weary
Of this lie I live
Now as they're reunited and, yet another battle, is over I can see them. Holding each other, loving each other they are simply living in bliss while in each other's arms. I have no arms around me, no one to love or call my own. But that is the way it is, the way it must be and the way it will always be. Such is the life of the miko, the Senshi of Fire…the life of Hino, Rei.
And I have woken now
To find myself
I'm lost in shadows of my own
I'm longing to be lost in you
Away from me
AN: sigh I'm not really sure that was any good at all. But I'll leave that up to the reviews.
