Yes, love at first sight.

She is young but radiant.

He will wed her soon.


A brush of the hand.

A slight touch, she notices.

Scream of fear, too late.


Hand locked on to her.

Gifts and letters sent her way.

She does not reply.


Weapons thrown her way.

Battle axes declare his love.

For Shirahoshi.


Her words: Not my type

Ring through his head like bells

His heart is broken


If he can't have her

No one will, Noah will kill

Any chance of love


Rubber destroys wood

Splinters fly everywhere

Noah is no more


Plan failed, retreat now

Captured and he is exiled

Vander Decken leaves


A.N.: Not my usual style, but haikus are fun. And the guy is fond of 'em so why not? In any case, there was some mix-up with my schedule and due to me being away I'm fixing it now. Reviews, Favourites, Subscriptions, Reader Birthdays, and Requests are welcomed and much appreciated! I'll see you in the next chapter for Monet!
