Hold on to me love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid,
Oh,
The boy dragged himself forward, breathing heavily. It hurts…It hurts so much…Where is she? He thought, slightly frantic. He looked at the red floor. All this blood…so much of it…from us? His head went up as he heard a noise from nearby. Is it her?
"Aaaahhhh…h-help…me…"came the soft voice. Too soft! Too weak! She was…
Dying…for him…NO! He would not let her die! He dragged himself to her, cringing a bit at the sight of her body. There were no broken bones, just blood everywhere.
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?
"Can you…hear…me?" she asked. He nodded, unable to speak for fear he would begin crying. His partner, his friend, the one person who mattered most to him, was dying.
"I love…you…you know?" she whispered, her voice carrying a hint of sadness. He nodded again, this time unable to stop the flow of tears. He held her close, and they sat there in the darkness, neither one speaking.
"Why? Why did you-" he began, but she pressed a finger to his lips, silencing him. She gave a weak smile.
"Because I…love you…can't let you…die…"
Holding my last breath,
Safe inside myself,
Are all my thoughts of you.
Sweet rapture, light, it ends here tonight.
"Heh…guess you have to kill…this one alone…" she whispered, her voice laced with anger and frustration.
"I swear…he will die. I will avenge you…" he said, his eyes burning with promise and anger.
"Yes…why are you…so sad?" she asked. He stiffened, then relaxed. She always knew the truth, so why was he surprised?
"It's my fault. If I had moved just a bit faster then-" he started, but she cut him off again, this time with angry words and looks.
"No! I chose to…jump…and save…you…" She said, her eyes filled with fury, tears falling down her face.
I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look far me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
"I don't want you to die! Don't leave me alone!" he begged, asking what he knew was impossible.
"Can't stay…my time…and besides…she's waiting…for me…they both are…" she whispered, her eyes and voice filled with longing. Of course…she missed them.
"Make me…promise me…"she whispered, staring at him, no, almost through him. The whisper was followed by five chilling words.
"My time is almost up…"
I know you hear me
I can taste it in your tears
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself,
Are all my thought of you,
Sweet rapture, light, it ends here tonight.
"What is it? I…I promise." He asked, swallowing back the tears. She was dying…if she wanted him to do something, then he would do it.
"I-it will shoot a…ice beam soon…when I say now…throw me in the path of it…so that I face…the sun…and you…"
"What?!?"
"I will be there…forever…so please…visit me…now and then…"
"But-"
"Soon now…" she whispered, her eyes taking on a far away look.
Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here.
But still you wake, and know the truth,
No one's there.
"There is somebody…else out…there for…you." She whispered, squeezing his hand a bit.
"No one can take your place." He said, his voice hollow.
"She…she has my name…so find her…and bring her…here…so I can meet…her…" she said, her voice almost below a whisper.
"Now…good-bye…" she sighed. He choked back a sob as he slowly picked her up by the waist.
"Good-bye…" he whispered, and threw her.
Say goodnight.
Don't be afraid.
In a few seconds she was frozen inside a pillar of ice, a small smile playing across her lips, her arms spread wide as though to greet the sun.
The demon chuckled to itself. A half alive girl frozen in an ice pillar! It ahad never heard of such a thing! Then something caught its eye. The boy was moving towards it, slowly walking forward until he was past the pillar. The demon hissed, and drew back as the boy looked in the eyes. Cold, ruthless, killer's eyes those were…followed by the coldest words the demon had ever heard.
"I live for her. I am alive because of her. Now I will kill for her."
The boy took another step forward and gave a small smirk.
"Ironic, ne?"
Calling me, calling me
As you
Fade, to black…
Shinju: Mystery, angst, pain, hatred…all in one chapter!
Sango: Remember, this is not a one shot. There will be more chapters, explaining who these two are and what happened.
Shinju: See you next time!
