Summary: A dying girl's last thoughts.
Warnings: Death.
Spoilers: None
Notes: What can I say? I was inspired...
...I'm cold.
I can see people, people all around me, examining things, and they're all wearing uniforms. I can't see them very well, but judging by the shiny badges, they're probably police officers... Why are there polices officers here?
I'm lying on the street with glass and blood lying all about me. Where did all this come from? ...Oh, yeah. Now I remember. There was a bright light, and 'Kaasan was screaming. Then I heard a sickening crunch, and then there was glass and blood and I'm lying on the street...
I can see 'Kaasan vaguely. There are men swirling all around her, just like the men that are even now fussing about me. They've put her on a bed, and they're covering her with a blanket. But why are they covering her head? Won't 'Kaasan have a hard time breathing with that over her head? I don't understand.
...I'm scared.
'Niisan, what's going on? Where are you, 'Niisan? I miss you... 'Kaasan told me that I was finally gonna get to see you again. We'd been apart for a whole year, but 'Kaasan said that 'Tousan had said that he was ready for us to come and live with you guys again, that everything was okay with his job, and we were all gonna live together again, remember? Just the four of us, like it was back home, and like you always told me it was like before we moved to home...
'Niisan, where are you? I'm cold, 'Niisan, and I'm scared. You said that you'd always be here for me, always when I need you the most. I need you, 'Niisan. The men are taking 'Kaasan away, and it's getting harder for me to breath... What's happening to me, 'Niisan? The air is choking me, that's what it feels like. I cough and blood comes out of my mouth. That's not supposed to happen, is it, 'Niisan?
...I'm crying now, Oniisan. I'm crying because I think I know what's happening, and I don't want this to be happening. I'm so scared, 'Niisan. 'Kaasan told me about the happy place, but I don't wanna be there, not yet. I have so many dreams still... I wanna be an idol star. That's always been my biggest dream, don't you remember, 'Niisan? I'm gonna be a triple threat. I'm gonna sing and I'm gonna act and I'm gonna dance. You always told me that you think I can make it. But I can't make it if I'm in the happy place. I don't wanna go. I don't wanna leave you.
Heaven. That's what it's called, isn't it? 'Kaasan said it's nice in Heaven. She said that everyone's always happy, and that you can do whatever you want there. But you won't be there. I'm not ready to leave you, not after we were finally gonna get to see each other again...
'Niisan! 'Niisan! I'm not gonna leave you, 'Niisan! I can't...
The world's going away now, 'Niisan. I'm not cold anymore. It doesn't hurt anymore. But I'm still scared, 'Niisan. The world's fading to darkness, and all I can think about is that I'll never get to see you again... I'll miss you, 'Niisan...

"It's been one year since you didn't show up."
The boy stared somberly at the tombstone. "It's been one year since you died," he continued. "One year since I lost you and 'Kaasan in one stroke. It's not fair. You shouldn't have died. You were so young, you had so much to live for..."
The boy wiped a tear from his eye. "It's been one year since you died, little sister," he whispered softly. "You and 'Kaasan both. I write you every day, you know? Letters to heaven... Letters to a little girl I'll never see again."
The boy placed a bouquet of lillies in front of the tombstone, and another bouquet on the tombstone next to it. He gave one last, sad look at the first tombstone.
"Good bye, Amane."
Ryou Bakura pointed his shoes towards home.
