No Time
No time. She'd fought so hard—she'd won. If you could call it that. Protecting me.
"Don't cry, my little boy," she whispered. "Be strong, Sesshoumaru."
No time. I didn't want to look after the human and her brat when he left to battle the dragon. I told him I'd never speak to him again.
I never did.
No time. She looked up at me, bleeding, panting, dying. She, who'd defied all by living as long as she did. Tenseiga couldn't save her. No time to follow her hard-won heart.
No time to save them. All time to know it.
A/N: A result of repeatedly rereading Kagura's last chapter. And a lot of depressing CDs. And very late nights. And too much time on my hands. Aaaaugh.
