A/N: Okay, this is our first try at an oneshot as well as a songfic. Oh, yeah it's a little hard to follow at first (my opinion anyway…lol) Madushi: I made this up while I was on a run, go figure. Anyway I love Green Day, so here goes.
Disclaimer: We don't own Shaman King.
Madushi: If I did, there would be a lot more RenxPirika action!
Christina: You love crack pairings, huh?
Kim:
Madushi: It's not a crack pairing!
Hello, I am Tao Ren. I am part of the powerful Tao clan from China. I have a sister named Jun, who can embarrass me sometimes but I still love her. Not like I'll ever admit that. I also have some good friends—stupid maybe, but true they are.
Yoh, the easy-going, laid back kind of guy, his stoic (if not slightly evil) fiancé, Anna. The brash-headed Ainu, Horohoro. The "look at me I'm a comedian" funny guy, Chocolove. Ladies' man (or so he liked to say) Ryu. Calm, level-headed Lyserg. Quiet, shy Jeanne. Clumsy, sweet, and an excellent cook Tamao. And as much as I hate to say it…
Hao, Yoh's evil twin brother. Not so evil anymore but still.
But… there is this one girl…Horohoro's cheerful and bubbly sister. Or that's how he described her. After he said that, he dropped the subject. Why didn't he tell me more about his sister? She seemed to familiar to me….
Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to be a dream
Sometimes I had dreams, about her… She was always haunting me. I should have been annoyed. For some strange reason, I wasn't.
I made a point to burn all the photographs
She went away and I took a different path
Sometimes I'd ask Jun about her, but she'd get a sad faraway look in her eyes. She never answered me. I looked everywhere for a single photo, just her with a name or something. It's like I never met her…
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatshername has been
Damn it, what was her name! Her image was so clear in my mind. Bright blue eyes, soft azure locks, her cheeks flushed…Dammit this isn't getting me anywhere!
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old what's his face?
Everywhere in my home, I'm reminded of my friends and family. But never her. It's like she was erased…from me or some other crap like that….
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatshername has been
Now and then at parties, I'd catch a glimpse of her: chatting with her friends or standing by the punchbowl all by herself. Her eyes were so sad…Empty blue orbs that seemed to draw him in. Every time she looked at me, she looked away with tears.
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Somehow, I just knew I knew her. I could feel it. I swear, I would remember her. Despite her face… her name,her personality….
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
I must confess
But, no matter how much I want to remember…sometimes I feel it's not meant to be… I'm a Tao for God's sake! Regretting over everything won't help… But having her in my head won't help on that matter either…
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
From so long ago
Go, Go, Go, Go….
It was from so long ago… How can I keep dwelling on this? This is useless. I'm not regretting anything. She's there—in my mind…
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you but not the time
Even if I can't have her with me now… If a part of her stays, from the damn memory… I'd never go back. Just having her with me… Makes me feel whole… But as I look back… I know she'll never come back…
A/N: What! I can't believe I ended that… It's a little confusing… Well basically Ren losing his memory and trying to remember everyone. He obviously had a relationship with Pirika before he lost his memory. But everyone else thinks it's better if he doesn't remember Pirika. Ren is still himself—complicated, so it'd probably wouldn't work… And you know the rest. Don't worry I'm confused too! PLEASE REVIEW! And if you want me to continue this as a chapter story-- just tell me!
