-Kairi's funeral-
The sad day had come at last. Kairi's body lay in a wake coffin on a wooden stage. A drum set and four microphones were on the stage as well. On the ground was a violin case, as was Yami's electric guitar. Brian was dressed in a tuxedo, his blue-green eyes brimming with tears. All the other males, except Tristan, were dressed in tuxes as well, while the females were dressed in dresses, a few of them made from silk. Tea's eyes were closed as tears fell from them. Brian, Yami, Joey, and Yugi then made their way up to the stage, Brian standing by Kairi's coffin with a microphone.
"Good afternoon, Domino," he began, trying to hide his tears. "I'm sure that all of you are saddened by the death of Kairi Lumina. I know that we are." He gestured towards the other three males up on the stage, and continued.
"How we first met her was when she became a vampire slayer in America. She then moved her to liver her own life. Then, I became head of the vampires, and tried to kill her. They set me free, until Parou, her father became head vampire after me. Now, we have to try and face this new threat that has befallen this city. This song is dedicated to our friend whom we loved dearly." He turned to look over at Kairi's coffin, then up at the ceiling. "Kairi, we hope you're listening. This song is for you." Yugi picked up the violin case, opened it, and pulled out the wooden instrument. They all began as Brian moved to the lead microphone.
Brian:
Look in the mirror and tell me
Just what you see.
What have the years of your life
Taught you to be?
Innocence dying in so many ways.
Things that you dream of are lost
Lost in the haze.
Hold on, baby hold on.
'Cause it's closer than you think.
And you're standing on the brink.
Hold on, baby hold on.
'Cause there's something on the way.
You're tomorrow's not the same as today.
Yami:
Don't you recall what you felt
When you weren't alone?
Someone who stood by your side,
A face you have known.
Where do you run when it's too much to bear?
Who do your turn to in need when nobody's there?
All:
Hold on, baby hold on.
'Cause it's closer than you think
And you're standing on the brink.
Hold on, baby hold on.
'Cause there's something on the way.
And you're tomorrow's not the same as today. After a solo by Yami, Brian began again, his tears shining in the light of the sun.
Brian:
Outside your door, He is waiting,
Waiting for you.
Sooner or later, you know he's got to come through.
No hesitation, and no holding back.
Let it all go when you know
You're on the right track.
They sang the chorus once more, and when it ended, a few of the spectators helped get Kairi's body into her grave. The gang stood around it, and sobbed silently. On the tombstone, it read, "Here lays Kairi Lumina. A friend to the King of Games himself. May you rest in peace." As they walked off, Inuyasha came up to the grave, along with Kagome and Shippo.
"Rest in peace, Kairi," Shippo whispered, placing a rose on the dirt mound. A single tear fell onto the ground from Inuyasha. They walked off, sobbing silently. A soft wind picked up, blowing the rose around, but not lifting it off the ground.
