Epilogue
Kisuke's POV

She left that night and she didn't come back for a long time. I can't remember all that well how long it was; it's one of those times in my life that I try not to remember. I try and push it to the back of my mind. Sure, she came back sometimes but never more than for an hour. She would always come back for food, shelter, first aid, something and then would just leave again. Leaving me again. We never did officially end things. It just faded away. The relationship we had just faded away. The feelings never did. At least not for me. The feelings always stayed and always lingered. The feelings would always rise when she came back but when she left the feelings hit their all time low. I know the people around me were always worried when I went into that mood. Tessai, Ururu, and Jinta always looked at me like I was ready to either explode in tears or anger. I usually just sat in my room or slept. And it didn't matter how long; however long it took for me to recover. Because whenever she came back, I was always left with a broken heart again. I was always left beaten and alone again. And the little princess in my soul cried and cried and cried for me to make it stop. To make it stop raining all the time. To make the sun come out and the skies to turn blue. But I always had to tell her that it wasn't possible. That if Yoruichi would only stay, that would happen. But she never did. She couldn't. And the rain continued to pour. It was like that all the time. I didn't like to see Benihime cry. I didn't like to see her hurt. But it was always like that and I couldn't do anything about it. I said sorry to her everyday and hoped that one day I could make it up to her. That one day I could make her smile. Just for me. I don't know when that day will come, nor does she. But we both hope that it's soon. Even though it does rain everyday in my soul, whenever Yoru-chan comes back…. the sun shines through and the skies are bright and clear… and the rain stops, if only for a short while.


So that is the end of the story. That's all that there is. Hopefully, this leaves the ending at least a little bit happier. This basically says that, yes, yoruichi left kisuke and doesn't come back for any long period of time...but when she does come back, the sun shines in his soul and the rain always stops when she does. so it's a little bittersweet, but underlying there is that there is hope that she will stay and that the rain in his soul will finally stop forever. I hope you all enjoyed this story and my next Bleach fanfic will be "Worthy" an UkitakexOC fanfic. So if you like that, look out for that next! Please review! Thanks!
