The Flute Player's Tale

The bells of the church tower rung loudly threw the night, as rain poured down on this world. Crying and yet washing us of all our faults

 

-

 

Ding, dong, ding

 

-

 

And alone, sat a man. His lean face was covered with tears of his own, as well as the skies, raven coloured hair was matted to his ivory skin. Lifeless he sat and watched as the water droplets hit the ground in a steady rhythm

 

-

 

Ding, dong, ding

 

-

 

The last of the bells were coming to an end and he sat alone, dying of heartbreak. Never again would he see her smiling face or feel her sensual kisses on his lips - he would never see her smiling face. She was gone - another spirit in the wind another star in the sky. Just Gone

 

-

 

Ding, Dong, Ding

As the last bell was struck, dead silence filled the air and his world began clouding over with blackness, which metaphorically engulfed his body. He was cold but so was his heart, why did she have to leave him? Why did it have to be her fate to be chosen? So many questions and no one to answer them

 

-

 

A ragged sob escaped his lips as he hung his head and cried into the security of his own embrace, his cries mingling with the howls of the wind, but no one heard.

 

-

 

You sometimes wonder if no one was around to hear, him then was he really making a sound? Due to the utter silence he was not sure, but it wasn't silent there just wasn't someone to soothe his pain - or to comfort the loss he was feeling. The knife that hit his heart like a bullet only ten times worse cause the bullet wasn't made for him

 

-

 

“Kagome why did you leave me? Was I meant to die miserable without you - why? Kami I love you so much”

That was the one thing she remembered as she rot in this cell, how long had it been since she seen the outside world? Since the sun kissed her face? She had taken everything she had for granted, her family and friends, her love

 

-

 

Oh god, how she wished to be held by him one more time, to feel his hands roam over her body in that rough but yet oh so gentle way. She wanted to be able to tell him that she loved him, hear him say that to her. To make love one more time - if only she had known that this would be her fate then she would of never done the things she did

 

-

 

She would have spent more time with him then others, she would appreciate things more at first glance. She'd be spontaneous and try new and different things each day and not take her freedom for granted, tears weld up inside her gray blue eyes and she cried.

 

-

 

Her sobs echoed in the distance bouncing off the cold brick walls. She could hear the thunder dancing outside of her prison but could see none of it; she was completely trapped, locked in this cage like a wild animal

 

-

 

Why Kami? What have I done to ever make you hate me so much?

When he didn't think he could cry anymore he just crawled up in ball and let the rain wash away his fears, though it didn't help much but he knew she wouldn't want him to give up on life she would want to see him move on and be happy.

 

-

 

Though no matter how hard he tried, when another woman was in his arms he only saw her - a goddess blessed into this world by the heavens. And he sometimes believed that the gods were jealous of his luck for they snatched her away from his hold and claimed her as their own

 

-

 

No, he would never move on, how could he just forget about someone like her? She made him smile when no one else could, she was there to chase away his fears when no one else would and when he sunk into his desires she was there to release them

 

-

 

She was his soul mate, his light in the darkness, and his angel amongst the demons. She was his and though it was selfish of him to want her here it just wasn't possible - perhaps in another life they would be together and would not endure such pain and heartache

 

-

 

Perhaps when he cried now, in years from now they would cry together? The thought alone brought some peace to his mind but was not enough to kiss away the pain for good. Was it selfish of him to want her to feel just as much pain? To make her suffer as he did now?

 

-

 

But he missed her so much, so very, very much - slowly he picked up the ordainment that was strapped to his leather belt, the last gift she gave him

 

-

 

A wooden flute, it's willow core shone in the rain - the finger pads were soft to the touch and gold lettering engraved the side; let the music guide our souls, a love so strong Kagome

 

-

 

His heart ache just reading the inscription but he couldn't turn away from it - a pale finder traced the words over and over so the indents were now in his finger from pressing to hard; music guide our souls

 

-

 

The first note was too high pitched to be called melodic, but eventually he warmed up to the wooden instrument and played soft notes one after another, he would play for her and their love…

 

-

 

Darling I promise I will find you again and then we will be together

So what do ya'll think? Good, bad - hate, love? Just say it all in the wonderful reviews I know you're thinking of giving :)

 

-

 

So does anyone know who the people are? I'm sure most of you picked up that the man is heavily in love with Kagome but who is he and who's the woman? Well you'll have to guess cause I'm not saying anything (clamps hand over mouth)
