http://clampfix.fanworks.net/x-fix/sweet.txt </head><body><pre> This isn't my first fanfic, but it's the first one I've put on a mailing list. Feedback is very much welcomed and so is gentle critism. Alright then, this fic is a little alternate universe-y, but it takes someplace after Subaru loses his eye but before Seishirou dies (It's more fun to have him in there!) Later on, there might be some yaoi, but for now there's only a very nervous and protective boy called Tamashii that puts some shonen-ai hinting in there. Well, I hope you enjoy it! -Korin Nagisa www.geocities.com/korin_nagisa/ --- Title- Sweet Oblivion (Working Title) Author- Korin Nagisa korin_nagisa@yahoo.com Keywords- Angst (So far anyway) Series- X Blurb- Two supernatural beings become involved in the End of the World, but one has a very unusual relationship with Kamui.

Oblivion and Tamashii are the result of not enough sleep combined with evil teachers. --- Sweet Oblivion Prolouge X Fanfic By Korin Nagisa 'It has been a while, has it not?' "Yes." 'So why have you returned to Tokyo? You said that you would never return when you disappeared those years ago.' "I was needed." 'By who?' "An acquaintance." 'An acquaintance?' "Yes." 'You will not tell me?' "I thought it was obvious Hinoto. You may have lost your senses, but what you received in return is much more. You can see what others can not, but yet you are oblivious to the truth." 'Do you know what "the truth" is? "More than you do." 'Would you tell me what you know?' "I will when the day that all masks are removed is here." 'When will that be?' "It will be when you are dead." The cloaked figure stood and turned, glancing over his shoulder at the seeress. The dim light reflected off his black sunglasses as he titled his head to the side, his black tinted lips curved in an emotionless smile. "Will you send your dogs after me now for not being your idea of a model guest?" 'Would I do such a thing?' "Yes." Hinoto said nothing, but it was very obvious that she was angry. Angry enough to kill. "I wish you luck, Hinoto. You will need it when we meet again." He disappeared, leaving only a faint burnt smell and a few dead black rose petals that swirled in a wind that was not there, before settling in front of Hinoto, seeming to mock her. Silently, she picked up one of the black petals and raised it to her mouth in the imitation of a kiss. Then she crushed it in her delicate hand, her face twisting into a mask of total hatred. 'Not if I can help it.' "Tamashii." The boy jumped and turned around, ready to disappear into the night if he had to. He relaxed when he recognized who it was. "Oblivion! How'd it go?" "Same as I thought it would." Oblivion pulled his sunglasses down his nose, studying his nervous companion with dull violet eyes. He finally sighed and let Tamashii take his hat, submitting to Tamashii's almost motherly attention. Only when the boy tried to take his cloak did he stop Tamashii. Tamashii pouted and nervously held the large hat in his hands, barely resisting the urge to twist the hat in his hands as he normally would but avoiding the sharp metal on it at the same time."So what's next?" "Waiting," Oblivion said in his simple, emotionless voice, raising a hand to his face to pull the black glove off with his teeth. He folded it and slipped it inside his cloak, pausing to rebutton the top three buttons that Tamashii undone during his 'mothering'. Sensing Tamashii's uneasiness and worries, he pressed his black- painted nails against the boy's lips. "We just wait." TBC And that just went WAY over Korin's head! Please comment, and the next chapter will actually make some sense. At least, it will if my evil teachers don't go overboard on the homework and projects again.</pre><p><a href="./">Back</a></p><p><a href=http://www.dreamhost.com/donate.cgi?id=216><img border=0 alt="Donate towards our web hosting bill!" src=https://secure.newdream.net/donate1.gif></a></p></body></html>
