I'VE HAD SOME GREAT REVIEWS TELLING ME I SHOULD GO ON. BUT HOW DOES ONE GO ON WHEN IT SAYS "THE END?" I JUST WRITE THIS…HEH DUH!
Kenji had been admitted to the hospital due to a bullet wound in the heart. It was a drug bust and Kenji, being the best cop he could be, wore his bullet proof vest, but this gang had some special bullets…very sharp and could penetrate anything...including a vest.
There was blood everywhere. Kenji's wife, Sakura (don't know her name from Reflections…gomen nasi!), was by his side until the doctor's led her out.
Finally, Kenji was stable. Sakura was with him now. he looked exactly like Kaoru. Her hair was black and long, her eyes were a deep blue ocean of emotions, and she loved Kenji just as much as Kaoru had loved Kenshin.
"How come it seems your family is always in a hospital?" she asked him. Kenji chuckled. "I know it seems unfair. But life isn't fair. You born, you live, you die. That's the way the world works. But sometimes fate interferes and you die too young. That's what it means when life is unfair." said Kenji.
Kenji took his wife's hand in his. "You remember that part about how I was saying you die to young?" he asked her. "Yeah," she sobbed out onto his hand, her tears falling like rain. "Well, it's happening now. Don't do anything rash, ok? I'll be watching you from above," he said.
Sakura promised Kenji that she would live for him and only die when it was her turn. Kenji smiled sweetly at her then closed his eyes…never to open them again.
Sakura burst out in tears all over her husband. The heart monitor was flat lined. Sakura looked up at the tiled ceiling. "Please take care of him until it's my time," she told Kenshin and Kaoru who now had Kenji by their side. "My Kenji," said Kaoru as she hugged him. "Mother," said Kenji.
It was Kenshin's turn. "Kenji," said Kenshin. "Dad," said Kenji. He ran to his father's embrace. It felt so warm and loving. "I missed you so much," he said crying. "As did I," said Kenshin.
"Let's go," said Kaoru lovingly. Kenshin, Kaoru, and Kenji all walked towards their new home...known as Heaven.
END SONG: May It Be: By Enya
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home
Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadows call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun
Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now
