Can't go back (Shugo)

[Morei Haji]

(OOC: Valo appearance)

Here I was at the graveyard, kneeling before the grave of a dear friend. Laying flowers at the headstone, I stared at the name that was carved. The only proof that she existed was this grave, and it made my chest hurt. Memories flashed back to that day, how she died right in front of me. Not a day went by that it didn't repeat in my head. I blamed myself for it.

Standing up and taking a step back, I continued to stare at her grave. Her brother, Shinn, made me realize that I was far too weak to even protect her memory. And right now, I wasn't even sure if I could protect Jayne.

"If I never fought Shugo that day..."

You make a mistake and you move on... At least that's how it's supposed to be. Every year I come here. To the site of my greatest defeat. The first time I couldn't protect a friend from dying. The first time I broke ties with a friend. The first time I nearly killed someone. It all happened here on this rooftop, at PHS #345.

"To think I was stupid enough to believe I had the power to make a difference back then. Haha..."

I ran my hand through my bangs covering my eyes as I looked up at the sky. Huh... was it raining? No... the skies were blue. I walked over to the edge of the rooftop and looked down after wiping at my eyes with my sleeves. Fuck... I jumped from the rooftop. Don't worry. It was only 2 floors. Fairly tall floors though. I landed on both feet none the less, with a fairly loud tap. I left the grounds of the ruined school and started walking down the sidewalk, sliding my hands in my pockets and letting my hair cover my eyes. I stopped a ways down by the entrance of the graveyard... I did this every year. Looked but never entered.
