Rurouni Kenshin Fan Fiction ❯ The Dead Never Stay Dead ❯ Oblivion is Bliss ( Chapter 10 )

Tenshi's nool:  Hey all!  Remember me?  I'm the no good scum who has the gall to not update for weeks and months on end.  My excuse, one gets lazy during school time.  Don't try to deny it, I bet you're apt to procrastinate on some things as well.  I hope you all like my apology from last time and hopefully ff . net ppl haven't caught on that it's not an actual story.  I'll try to update more often now, but I can't promise you a rose garden you know for everything I touch dies.  So enjoy, review, and get on with your lives okay?

Disclaimer:  you know it's such a long and tedious process to actually get the rights to Rurouni Kenshin, so I think I'll take a breather for awhile.  Oh, the paperwork…so much paperwork!

Part 9- Oblivion is Bliss

The newest chapter in my life has just been closed

What my future may hold not even the Fates know

Eagerness soon takes control but doubt invades my heart

How is it out of so many considered for another chance only I am accepted to take part

But I can't stop now after gotten so far

I can't stop now and refuse the help from my guardian stars

For even a soiled Rurouni is entitled to some happiness

Why though is more or less anybody's guess

So I shall toil onwards to complete my goal

I shall toil onwards to reclaim the light of my soul

She's waiting for me even as I speak

She considers me so strong so I can't let her down and show that I can be weak

Gabe was starting to worry her.  Sure he went about his daily duties like he normally did but beneath all his smiles and everything else Tomoe know that something was troubling him and she couldn't help but question that it might have something to do with Kenshin.  Of course it wasn't any of her concer,n but ever since meeting Kenshin the thought of anything happening to him was just something that didn't settle well with her.  It goes beyond the fact that he had always gotten the short end of the stick in his life.  No, it was something more, something deeper and somewhat instinctive.  How odd.  Who knows, maybe she did know Kenshin in her previous life.  The expression on his face when she first met him seems t o agree with her suspicions.  If that were at all true then it would be foolish to get involved any deeper in all this mess.  Just imagine what would happen if she regained her memory because of this. 

Tomoe knew an angel who through a careless mistake of his charge (the chance you have to take being a guardian angel); regained the memories of his material life.  It wasn't that his time on Earth was a bad experience or anything, but the overload that his mind underwent after decades of ignorance completely devastated him.  He lost his position as a guardian angel because of all this and everyday for the past five human years he had to have his memories gradually repressed in order to return to how he was before all the mess started.  Even so, he was never quite the same.  Imagining that happening to her was just something she didn't even want to envision.

Tomoe felt guilty because by being hesitant she was acting selfish, a nature that angels are not suppose to possess. Well enough's enough! While she still has the chance she has to do something about the mess Gabe stupidly made. It's obvious that he cannot fix things on his own by the way he's carrying on. No, to fix this debacle Gabe will need a woman's touch and luckily for him she's just the woman for the job. And she'll fix it no matter the cost because at the stake of a life; no cost is too high. It doesn's matter if she runs the risk of remembering, it's a chance she will just has to take. She can't show any fear or trepidation at a time like this. And it's a bit, dare she say, greedy to want to hold onto her ignorance while Kenshin is in danger. Even so, it would be nice to be left oblivious in the dark.

Tomoe sighed to herself, her mind made up. Thinning her lips resolutely, Tomoe abruptly left her favorite nook to go find a certain archangel in order to get some answers from him. And she will get some answers from him, one way…or another. With that thought in her mind a deadly smile alit her face, a smile that's disturbing to see on such angelic features as hers. And as her form disappeared against the horizon she couldn't help but wish that her infallible intuition was wrong for once, oh how she wished it.

Tenshi: I know it's short but it's longer than last time. I have come to a decision to make my chapters shorter that way I won't be overstressed and I will have more of a chance updating sooner. I also have two other stories going on that I need to update as well. One is getting rad reviews so I'm estactic.

I realized that haven't replied to any of my few reviewers on Media Miner . org, so here I am. Thanks for the compliments now I will be forced to keep on updating due to the fact that my ego is too over inflated to fit through the door.
