LOVE BEYOND REACH
By: ~Sanosuke Lover~
Notes: This takes place in the episode when Nuriko dies. This is Tasuki's
point of view. This is what came up in my mind when I saw Tasuki crying.
This part is almost the same as the episode 'Nuriko, Eternal Farewell' but it
will change in the next parts. I know that I missed most of the parts but its
all about how Tasuki feels so....You know^^

"..." talking
'...' thinking

Anyways...

ENJOY!(umm...or cry^^)

Love Beyond Reach

Tasuki's POV

Nuriko....Yeah that's all I have been thinking about since the Star Festival.
I think that I managed to get myself fall in love with him. Now I never
expected to be homosexual but it just seem to happen; one minute I'm all crazy
for Miaka and then the next I am in love with Nuriko.I am
planning to tell him soon that I love him.

I just can't go on like this....I am getting distracted with Nuriko.
Everytime that we are in a battle I end up getting hurt and even then all I
care about is Nuriko. Like when I saved Miaka from Tamahome that one time all
I seemed to care about was Miaka, but the only difference now is that it is
not a girl but a boy. I think Chichiri has noticed it...last night Chichiri
told me to stop hiding what ever I am hiding. He knows it is hurting me in a
way. I don't know how though. But he's right so I have finally decided to
tell him that I....Then I felt something in my heart and it hurt me.

"What was that I just felt?" I asked to no one in particular.

"Did you feel that, Chichiri-san?" asked Chiriko.

"Yeah, it's one of the Suzaku Seven, you know?" answered Chichiri.

It was then that I saw some smoke coming from some mountain.Its a signal....
From Tamahome or Nuriko...I'm sure of it. Then I ran to my horse and headed
straight for the mountain. I yelled to everyone to get moving and head for
the mountain. 'Suzaku, please don't let Nuriko be hurt. I could not live
without him and his cheerfulness.' I thought to myself. 'I need him to know
that I love him.'

When we arrived I saw Tamahome hold a beaten Nuriko and he seem to be crying.

"Tamahome?" I asked. "What happened?"

"He got into a fight with one of the Seiryu Seven..." then he started
whispering to himself that I could not understand. "The guy is dead and
Nuriko didn't make it."

I wouldn't believe it...I just couldn't, not now. Why does all this happen
to us.

"You fool...What good can you do when your gone...wake up you COWARD!!!"
I yelled. Then I remembered Mitsukake."Hey, Mitsukake....I have a job for
you go and heal him." He didn't move. "What are you waiting for. Go and
help him." Then I realized what it meant. "You can't do anything can you?" I
asked. By now tears were streaming down my face and there was no way to stop
them. I just held on to Mitsukake and cried my eyes out. "He was damnly
alive yeaturday...Why...Why...did you die on us Nuriko."

'Most of all why did you leave me?' I asked myself.

"NO, HE'S NOT DEAD!!!" yelled Miaka. "He can't be dead."

Then she ran off and she fell screaming Nuriko's name. It caused me even
more tears to see everyone else that loved him cry with so much emotion.
I can't stand it, but I have to hold on until we get somewhere, to do that...

"We should bury him. I can't bring him back but I can restore his beauty."
said Mitsukake.

He used some powdery stuff and amazingly it made Nuriko look like he was just
sleeping there. That thought made me cry even more. No more Nuriko, no more
of his lovely laugh....I could go on and on.

"It even fixed all of his clothes he looks at if he was just sleeping there."
said Chiriko.

Wow its amazing that he knows what I'm thinking. But it was probably
coinsidence. Then I went up to Nuriko and found the bag with his hair in it.
I started crying even more. 'I just can't believe I first took Nuriko as
granted.' I must admit that at first I hated Nuriko because I had a crush on
Miaka and she seemed to like Nuriko better than me. But when a few weeks ago
I found that I loved Nuriko better then Miaka. But now I am left with regret
not telling Nuriko how I felt.

"Heres the bag with Nuriko's hair in it." I told everyone. "We should bury it
with him."

After that was over we went in for the Shinzaho. I can't believe how they can
be so calm after Nuriko's death. Its like they don't feel the hurt anymore.
But I can...I wish I can't but I can and it hurts a lot.

~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~ `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~

(Okay this goes to the part when they are in the city of the second Shinzaho.)

I was just there eating my head off trying despertly to get Nuriko out of my
mind and I just can't. "That does it! I can't stand it anymore." I yelled
even though no one was there to hear me.

Then in the corner of my eye I saw a knife. 'I could end it right now...No more
pain of losing Nuriko. And I will finally be with him again.' I thought.
Then I grabbed the knife and looked at it. "I can't go on like this anymore,
its just so had to let go of Nuriko. I am going to go through with it...I
have to...I'm sorry Miaka, Tamahome, Chichiri, Mitsukake, Hotahori, and
Chiriko but it is so hard to let go of him." I said as I cut deeply in my
right wrist and then repeated the same action in the left. "Finally I can let
go of him." I said as I watched the blood flow from my wrists. No more pain
and then I can be with Nuriko.

Then I heard the door open, I looked up and saw Chichiri looking at me
petrified.

"Tasuki! What are you doing, you know? Are you out of your mind?" He yelled
as he ran to me and looked at my wrists.

"Chichiri-san, please leave me. I can't live without him. It hurts so much
without him smiling anymore and having his presence here with me." I said
crying and couldn't stop myself.

"AND WHAT ABOUT ME? HOW DO YOU THINK I WILL BE ABLE TO STAND IT? YOU KNOW,
THIS WILL HURT ME IF YOU DIE ON ME LIKE MY FIANCE'!!!" he yelled and I could see
tears in his eyes.

"What do you mean?" I asked him trying to keep my eyes open.

"Forget that I have to get Mitsukake." he yelled as he ran to get Mitsukake.

~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~ `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~

Okay this is for now. But it will be more complicated than you think.
Remember that when they were in the city that Chichiri couldn't comunicate
to Hotahori well....Think people!!!

Anyways....

There will be a next chapter soon.

Ja ne!!!

For Now!!!!
