Chapter3

(((Yusuke Pov)))

I truly don't know what drove me to follow this girl; she seems to be so sad. I don't know but I don't think she should this upset, it doesn't seem to suit her. I followed her to a clearing. There were six or so grave stoned sitting there almost innocently but the girl ran straight to them and collasped sobbing. I felt like I should comfort her, but I wouldn't know how. 'According to Keiko, I don't respect peoples' feelings and could/ would never even try to comfort someone,' I thought bitterly to myself, 'Gods I miss her……' Suddenly the girl did something that surprised me and apparently herself too; she started to sing.

I can't run anymore,
I fall before you,
Here I am,
I have nothing left,
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am,
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it,
Broken,
Lifeless,
I give up,
You're my only strength,
Without you,
I can't go on,
Anymore,
Ever again.

I'm surprised at how well this song seems to fit my life perfectly. The whole reason I came to the park was to run away from the pain that Keiko had given me. She left me, I needed her, and she left me. I never felt pain like this…I never want to feel pain like this again. I do give up, I don't believe I'll ever find love again. I guess I was never meant to experince love. I don't want to be exposed to pain like that again.

My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love.

'Keiko, don't you know I fought only for you? The only reason I ever decided to rejoin the living was because of you. I almost died when I fought Suzoku (sp?) to protect you. I went to the D.T. to ensure you wouldn't be hurt. Why would you betray me like this? Why would you take away my will to live? Why!' Unconciously a few tears slipped down my face as I stood there frozen.

I can't run anymore,
I give myself to you,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry,
In all my bitterness,
I ignored,
All that's real and true,
All I need is you,
When night falls on me,
I'll not close my eyes,
I'm too alive,
And you're too strong,
I can't lie anymore,
I fall down before you,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.

'I guess I did ignore you too many times. I'm sorry I never let you know how important you were to me, to my soul. I can't sleep without thinking of you and all the bitterness I feel. Your memory is too strong for me. I'm so sorry I never proved how much I loved you…'

My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love.

' You were always there for me. You were there after my father let me and my mother. You stood by my side even after I tried to push everyone away. You were the only one who ever cared whether I lived or died. But you pushed me away in the end. I don't think we can go back to what we were…'

Constantly ignoring,
The pain consuming me,
But this time it's cut too deep,
I'll never stray again

'I can't ignore this anymore as much as I wish too. I'll never go back to you. I'll fight for myself…and my mother. I ignored her too, I will never do that anymore…I'll help her any way I can.'

My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love,
My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love

'I will find someone to help me…I'll fight for her and keep her safe, if need be I'll find someone for her. I won't be ignorant to my family…or friends anymore…I need your help, I'll never admit it but I need all of your help…' Tears, which I had long ago shunned,fell down my face. Who ever this girl is I will thank her or repay her somehow pay her back for helping me. I'll never give up on my friends and I'll get help for my mom.

I saw the girl collasp after she finished the song. I ran over. I don't know who she is but I'm going to help her. Only now I am able to sense her energy. It is extremely powerful but at the same time nothing I ever felt before…it was completely pure. However, it held a great deal of sorrow. I look down at her, I notice she is very beautiful. She has pale skin, rosey lips, and raven black hair. I couldn't help but wonder what color her eyes were. 'I should get to somewhere to help her…but where? Oh, I know! Genkai's! She would be able to help her.' I took off at a run towards the temple. After about ten minutes I reach the bottom of her shrine steps. If there was any other time that I hated how many steps she had it was now. 'How many steps are there!'

After hesitating for about two minutes I ran up the stairs. When I reached the top, Genkai was at the top like usual waiting for me. She only took a glance a the cargo I was carrying and nodded for me to follow her. I followed her ignoring the curious glances I got from the team and Kwuabara's idiotic yelling about something or another. Mostly about me cheating on Keiko or something, or how I was the one to beat up the 'pretty lady' as he had dubbed her. Kurama just looked at me curiously and did not say anything, for which I was grateful. I was even more grateful when the big oaf was knocked out, curtisy of Hiei's fist. 'Thanks Hiei! Tell the others I'll explain later.' I thought to him loud enough for him to hear me. He only nodded.

Mouse: I know so cruel leaving you with a cliff-hanger. I'll try to update asap!
