Bye

In the end, you left with her, though.

I remember that time, when we talked privately for the last time before going to Makai to accompany the three great lords.

I remember you smirk and tell me not to fear, for you would never befriend her. That you didn't go there to be friends with her; that you went only for battle, for training, for getting stronger.

Those were the last words we talked privately. After we fought our battles, we said goodbye again. But it was not the same anymore. It never will be.

You know, I still wanted to say: don't go! I wanted you to stay! I bet you never realized.

It was my fault after all. I never had the courage to show you how I really feel. I thought I'd just scare you away.

She had nothing, and so she had nothing to lose, that's why it was way easier for her.

And so you accepted her.

I'll never know if you'd have accepted me the same way.

I don't want to know it anymore either.

Just be happy, Hiei… I'll never call you back, I promise…. Just be happy there.

Still, my heart does not agree. Something here inside me is screaming… something… else…

I'll fight it, with all my powers, until my life ends someday. For you, Hiei. Not for her. Not for myself. Only for you.

Because…

all I've done for you, with you…

regain their sense,

if you become happy.
