*Waves* Minna, I've been listening to some old songs by Amei Cheung and I've
this urge to write this song fic. So, I've done a
 translation, it is not brilliant but please bear with me. I'm in
 the middle of my finals too� *sobs* I know this is not on topic,
 but I have no place to post it for comments, please forgive me!!! *Begs
with tears in eyes*

 This is a Clamp fic, a Shishiro and Sabaru fic. All standard
 disclaimers apply! None of these people or song belong to me, I
 only own my imagination and fantasy!! Enjoy and please give feed
 back. This is my first songfic after all�



 Days without cigarettes

 Note: *text* are lyrics
       ~text~ are memories

 Shishiro was strolling in a park at dusk, he took a glance at the 
 sun's position and leapt. He was balanced on the edge of a tall
 building watching the sun set. He reached in his coat pocket and
 took out a packet of cigarettes. He flipped open the lid and
 realised that there was only one left. The corner of his lips
 turned up for the tiniest bit of a smile as he lit the last
 cigarette, a small wistful smile as he remembers�

 ~Shishiro walking out of his apartment to the nearest store to
 get a packet of Mild 7. As he was about to reach the store an
 eagle's shadow
 caught his attention. Shishiro's eyes narrowed dangerously for a
 split second and he disappeared. ~

 *Days without cigarettes, days without cigarettes
 I'm always not by your side*

 ~ Quick footsteps could be heard on the rooftops. It was Shishiro
 running on the roofs. He stopped short when he reached a temple.
 He could sense something unpleasant going on, something he will
 not like. He jumped on a tall tree and started to chant. Within a
 second the area was inclosed in another dimension. Shishiro's
 eyes turned cold, and promised death and torture upon the
 scenery.

 Sabaru was hurt lying on the round. Scanning the scene quickly,
 Shishiro calculated that Sabaru had put up a good fight and lost
 his
 consciousness just before he arrived. He eyed the attacker with
 piecing cold daggers. Without a word he summoned his eagle demon.
 Before the attacker had a chance to speak, he was hurt on the
 ground.~

 *And always in my heart
 Still you are my only hope
 My only bit of hope*

 ~ 'Why did you attack him?' glared Shishiro and asked in a cold
 monotone that sent shivers down the attacker's back.
 'I'm only doing my job� don't.. don't kill me, please..' pleaded
 the attacker.
 'Who told you to attack him?'
 'I don't know� I have received this money and an attach note that
 said if I kill him I'll get a double amount as reward� a.. no..
 please.. please... help..help!!'

 The background of the created dimension was splashed red, and the
 dimension fades away with the dripping colour. Sabaru stirred,
 Shishiro quickly put on his mask and attended Sabaru. Sabaru
 opened his eyes and try to focus. As soon as he was aware of his
 situation, he scrambled to his feet. He looked at Shishiro at
 surprised and blurted out a bunch of questions and concern.
 Shishiro assured him and ushered him home. Shishiro reached into
 his pocket absent mindly and pulled out his empty cigarette box.
 He then remembers it was empty and put it in the nearby rubbish
 bin. Sabaru noticed his action and asked,
 'Have you finished another packet again?'
 Shishiro chuckled lightly and answered, 'is was an old packet
 Sabaru-kun.' ~

 *Its dark cannot walk on till dawn
 My yearning strip by strip built on
 That beginning junction of the little grey town
 You seem not to like it when no soaring blue doves Ah~~*

 ~ Sabaru smiled gently and suddenly it starts to rain. They ran
 to the nearest store for shelter. As they stepped in the
 supermarket, they
 noticed the time, 5:30. They looked at each other and the
 trolleys next to them. They took one out and started to shop for
 their dinner. As they walked down the last isle to the cashier,
 Sabaru noticed that Shishiro glanced at the cigarettes on the
 shelves and walked on. Sabaru took a packet of Mild 7 and put it
 in the trolley for him. ~

 *Without a cigarette in hand then light a match
 Smoke away your dispair
 Smoke away that showers that will never come back O~~*

 Shishiro took one last smoke and dropped it off the building. He
 watched the stub fall down the edge quietly leaving a trail of
 smoke behind...

 ~ When they stepped out of the supermarket, the rain had softened
 to drizzle. They each took a bag of shopping and walked the way
 to
 Shishiro's home. After they had their dinner, Sabaru stood up and
 collected his belongings and took his leave. Before he left the
 apartment, he took the packet of cigarettes out of the shopping
 and silently put it on the low table in the entrance. Shishiro
 walked him to the lift and went back in when the door slid shut.
 He caught sight of the cigarettes and walked to the windows and
 looked down. He then saw Sabaru stepping out of the building. He
 opened the packet and lit a cigarette. He inhaled deeply and
 stared at the night sky long time, till dawn broke...~

 *When you remember me*

 Taking one last lingering look at the dimming sky, Shishiro took
 flight. To catch a glimpse of his Sabaru-kun before the final
 battle.

 *The days still without cigarettes*
