If you are going crazy can I come too?
I read Pinned Wings Butterfly by Aprill May at lunch today. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2356647/1/
It's Inuyasha fanfic and if you don't want it spoiled then read it before you go on 'cause I give away the big Rod Serling plot twist.
If you don't want to read it it's about Sango, a woman in the series who joins Inuyasha's group after her village is massacred and her possessed brother kills their father. All she has left is a need for revenge and to save her brother. And her constant companion a fire cat named Kirara. Along the way she unexpectedly finds love with Miroku, another of Inuyasha's companions. This story takes place months after the defeat of their enemy in a battle where Sango's brother , Kirara, and Miroku die. Which hasn't happened in the series, this is set sometime in the future.
We don't know that she's lost them at first though. She is shown living a very happy life rebuilding the village with Miroku and her brother. They attract new settlers and are leaders of their little community. Every day is filled with love and laughter.
Until Inuyasha appears to try and help Sango after he hears about the crazy lady who is living in the abandoned village. The place is still in ruins and her happy life is just an insane delusion. When he tries to talk sense to her she violently rejects him and runs away from him. Once safely out of sight she smiles as she sees Miroku come to her and the dream swallows her again.
It's supposed to be sad and it is but I envied her a lot and when I thought about it during my commute home tonight I cried all the way home. Not for her but for me. If given the choice between being happy with the people that I love who are gone (but being totally insane) or what I have now, I would pick insanity as long as I could clean up some messes first so others wouldn't have to deal with them.
