Bounty Hunters
By MoshiMoshiQueen
"Dialogue"
(Author's Thoughts)
Dark clouds rolled in quickly as the tears of God hit the outside pavements, and slide down the visage of the buildings. The wind howled painfully as it knocked violently against the building's side causing creaks to interrupt the silence.
The blood of two bodies dripped endless towards the cold ground, and three souls slowly drained away from their bodies. At that moment life ceased to have warmth and light. It was as if an Armageddon had engulfed the universe and left it in darkness.
The once bright-lit stars dimmed as rain pounded angrily at the planet. Two lives had intertwined for only a short period of time. Like Romeo and Juliet, their love was only meant to last until they both died together tragically.
The outer world rejoiced in the death of a killer, and mourned the life of a praised bounty hunter. While family members and friends grieved over three lives that were wretchedly shot down in their last battle.
After the confusion of the shooting has leaked away like fog from the frigid air realization has set in. Sakura's gun had been pulled from her hand before the shot entered her head, and was ironically pointed towards her lover's chest. He had ran to her side before she has pulled the trigger, and tried to save her life while ending his own.
At that very moment Kouhei's spare gun had fired and his bullet entered Sakura's back. As their bodies intertwined and fell, Syaoran pronounced his love for Sakura aloud.
It was meant to be a trick... a trick that backfired. Tomoyo's body weakened as she fell to her knees. Her body sunk next to Eriol's as tears pooled from their eyes.
The harshness of reality still had not set in. The police stormed the building and apprehended Kouhei, whose smugness still clouded around him.
"I'll never reach prison, you fools. I've won."
Tomoyo gained enough strength to raise her body to a weak stance, "You are right, Kouhei. You'll never reach prison."
A shoot ran out from her gun reached its intended target. The police stood dumbstruck at the bloody sight of their prisoner.
"Miss Daidouji we are going to have to take you in"
"Take me... I'm all ready gone."
Taking Eriol's hand, she was stripped from the ground she stood upon and was led away.
"You're going to have to take me as well," Eriol said softly as he shot the two policemen, "Take me in another life that is..."
Blinking away painful tears, Tomoyo murmured, "We must leave"
"We must run."
Looking back at their companions' bodies once more, they then left the building and we never seen again.
Touya and Yuki returned to their murderous lives, and are still being sought after by the newest string of bounty hunters.
Rika and Terada never returned to their lives of crime, but sadly and ironically were killed in a terrible car accident that resulted in the termination of the two-year-old son, and unborn daughter. (Ironically because they both used to steal cars for a living.)
Kaho managed to rise up against her past and became the new owner of the space casino Lucky Chances. Her earnings tally up to over 12.7 million. Nakuru became the co-owner of the establishment.
Chiharu and Yamazaki are now on their fourth child, and have left their pasts completely behind. They now live normal, honest lives as lawyers. (Again ironically because they prosecute assassins, which they use to be)
Syaoran's sisters still mourn after their brother, his love, and their child, but have since moved on. Shefia took a job in abuse clinic, and Feimel took one in a rape clinic. They both became owners of the two and connected them, and have since opened sixteen more through out the galaxy. Fanren entered politics to pass laws banning the use of alcohol; sadly a protestor killed her. Fuutie married a construction worker, who ironically helped build the house she destroyed.
Yelan couldn't get over the loss of her son, and released her emotions by returning to her old hobby... bombing buildings.
The life of a bounty hunter is a lonely life to live. You hunt, you find, but you are always still searching for that one person that makes a difference. Sakura had accomplished her revenge, but has lost herself in the battle. Happily ever afters can happen, but they are not always meant to last.
We can only hope that Syaoran and the others gained her forgiveness as she entered a new realm of life, but I'm sure there is reassurance in the fact that there are three more stars that shine brightly through out the skies of the universe.
Bounty hunters become legends, and their stories are never forgotten... May Syaoran and Sakura's spirits live on, and may their unborn child gain a second chance.
