A.N.: This is my first fanfiction story...it was inspired by Rin Kagamine's "Regret Message" because I thought it sort of fits Lelouch and Nunally's relationship...
I actually have no idea what else I'm supposed to write in the Author's Note...
Sadly, I don't own Code Geass, or any of its characters.
Please review this!
"Onii-san…are you serious about this?"
He has just released the bottle into the sea.
"Would you like to try it Nunally? It's an old tradition from before…if you write your wish in a paper and let it sail in a bottle to the sea; your wish will come true."
She couldn't see his expression, but she felt that he could see hers.
"I don't need to try it. It would be nice but…my sight…it will never come back. Even if I wish for it."
Tears streamed slowly through her eyes. But she seemed to sense that he smiled sadly.
"I mean…onii-san…already grants my wishes don't you?"
"Yeah."
He squeezed her hand.
"Yeah I do."
Nunally looked up see the waves of the sea. The beach was nearly empty now, except for her and the seagulls flying over the shoreline.
She could feel the grains of the sand in her fingers, and all around her dress. Seawater splashed against her face occasionally, but she didn't mind. She had tried to walk as close as she could to the shoreline with her legs, but she buckled over at the second step. She had dragged herself nearer the shoreline instead.
Looking out to the sea that held her memories: a story she cannot tell.
Out of a pocket, she took out a bottle so small. The fading sunlight reflected off the glass and played around in the water. It contained a paper inside, with a wish. She gently placed in the water and pushed it forward. It floated without any movement at first, but was then taken away by the waves.
There went the wishes of a girl, fading into the horizon…without a sound to be heard.
"If we were ever to be reborn, I'd want to be with you again…"
She couldn't count the things he had done for her with her fingers. He had always done everything for her even though they were troublesome…she didn't even know what he was becoming…because of her.
I've realized that I've been so selfish…and hurt you for a long time…only when you were gone…I've been thinking about the many things you have given to me…and I couldn't give anything back to you…
She could still feel his blood in her hands…the single button that took his life…
You were willing to become evil for me…just to create a world where I would be safe…I can't say how sorry I am…
Because you, who grant my wishes are gone.
All the sadness inside of her began flowing out. Grasping the skirt of her dress, she shook as tears flowed out with all her regret.
You were the only one who heard me…but now you're gone.
But only tears and regret come at the end…so I'm hoping that this message…this message of regret would reach you…
To let you know…
How sorry I am.
The tears were almost gone now…but she still felt the heaviness in her heart.
"Nunally."
She looked up, but she didn't see anyone.
"Nunally. You don't have to feel all those things."
A hand grasped her shoulder. A hand that was all too familiar.
"I'll always be with you Nunally. Always."
The hand was still there.
"Yes, onii-san. I know that."
She begins to hear footsteps.
"I love you onii-san."
Then the dream had to end. Her maid had found her sitting in the sand, then Nunally knew it was time for her to go back.
"If we could only be reborn…then I'd want to be with you…" Nunally quietly said as she looked behind. The sun and the moon finally met across the sky…and she was looking at her beloved onii-san standing on the shores.
"Wouldn't it be…onii-san?"
The only reply she got was a small breeze that let her feel that everything was going to be okay.
