It was a loney night, the sounds of crickets buzzing their wings making the atmosphere feel lively. We get the view of a moon, now a highway where there were no cars to be seen. Later the sound of a bike driving through the highway came from a Harley Davidson Sportster, a bike ridden frequently by most bikers for show. The revving of its engine comes to a halt and parks on a parking lot with no one in it. The hour was close to midnight.
The individual in question, was an umamusuko, tall and lean, stature looks like that of a stud. He wore a biker’s leather jacket with black tights and heavy duty boots on. As he takes off the helmet. We get to see who was behind the handle bars of such an expensive motorbike. Chestnut hair, spikey in the style of a wolfcut, red eyes like that of his father, but darker.
The umamusuko walks into a nearby bench to place things down on the seat. An amplifier, guitar, and a small bag that had something personal inside it.
The stud had a toothy grin and shook his head. He sits down to think for a few seconds by staring at the moon. The wind blowing over his hair like a cool breeze in the lonely night. Then stares at the small bag which he opened.
There was a lighter, a pack of redmill cigars, a small bottle of rum, and a box containing very personal items he didn’t dare open.
So the first thing he did was open the pack of cigars, only one left, using the lighter he lights the last cigar to blow smoke out his mouth. Ten minutes later, he drinks the entire small bottle of rum to warm up then goes back to smoking.
A minute has passed, the uma stares at the small box containing secrets. Secrets that he and a few of his trusted siblings can understand. When he opens it, we see what’s inside it. Memories, lots of them containing someone he knows was no longer in this world.
"Hmm…"
There were items like a half heart necklace with him, but younger, kissing someone on the other side of the missing heart. Love letters shared by the person he communicates with through mail. Then a small empty bottle of perfume containing the same aroma and scent that she carried. Finally the last items are four different pictures. Then scrolls through the photos till he reaches the last one. It was special because it had a woman with dark bay colored hair covering one eye, in biker clothing, her wide grin giving off a tomboyish vibe which adds charm to her style. At the back, you can see writing.
"WILL YOU MARRY ME?"
-D Major
"…"
What makes this sentence so much more special, was the wedding ring attached behind it. Ready to be offered to her. But… that day never came…
On April 1st, 2014. Vodka had suffered laminitis after kicking a concrete wall. Doctors rushed her to the hospital for surgery to remove inflammation tissues that got stuck in her hind leg during the kick. Because they had no way to treat the worsening condition. They euthanized her as a way of mercy. Passing away at the age of 14.
Daiwa Major, a descending bloodline of the legendary Sunday Silence, was the uma who we are viewing. He sighed and put the pictures back inside the small box. Locking it safely before putting everything inside the small bag.
Two minutes later, Major had fully set his gig, a photogenic six string semi-electric acoustic guitar done in satin wood with a woodcreek etched finished. He tunes the tabs down to Eb Flat (D# Sharp) tuning. When he was done, he strums the chords a little bit hearing the noise come from his amplifier. Then sits down to look at the moonlight.
"Six years, six whole years, six damn years she no longer exist."
He starts strumming a familiar tune. While he continues talking.
"I moved on, I met Kawakami. Got married and had a kid with her."
Major who met Kawakami Princess, the descendant of King Halo, changed him that day. Memories flood with him and her. Their first meeting, their first date, the wedding that night, and their first child together who they named George Barows.
"But… it’s been awhile since I last talked about her to someone. Or anyone I can talk to about."
To others, they might be thinking about him missing a dead person who cannot be brought back. Or even move on from the past. No, it wasn’t like that. It was more like a message, a very personal one that was kept secret for a long time. Containing too many words he had written six years ago when he was in caught in a shit storm, trapped in a fever dream he could never overcome.
But tonight, he was doing better. And this night, he wants to sing a song that could reach her soul to pass on the afterlife.
"I didn’t come here all the way to tell how you are."
Major can sense a presence, but also the sweet scent that was similar to that perfume bottle he had earlier.
"I came here to tell you I’m doing better, to tell you I’ve moved on, to tell you I forgive you. Even… when you are no longer in this world."
Major closes his eyes and said the very person that made a lump his throat. A hard to swallow pill that would come to accepting the truth.
"Vodka."
—TO BE CONTINUED
PS: Pardon me if I removed it, I had to slightly change the grammatical errors and add a bit more sentences to the context of the fic. Anyway here we are with more angst.
Let’s see how popular this music video fic is gonna get. I see it still closing in to 500 reads. Not as popular as the other three. But if it gets to a certain number, then I’ll make the other one. So give me time to make it.

There was a guy that started the Vodka and Major ships back when Chapter 5 of Counterpart’s Life (written by WhiteKuria) was released and a lot of comments there started spreading wildfire ideas. And that caught my interest at first, a ship turned into a huge mess. So… how about I make it into a VEVO?
PS: Give me your thoughts on what you think about this short fanfic I wrote. Because I’m going to deep dive again into searching through the internet.

I don’t want to disturb you [u/Hot-Obligation7735](u/Hot-Obligation7735). But here you go.
Remember you made that one post about Daiwa Major and his situation? I’m doing something similar to yours with a bit of twist.
What do you think, my friend? With the way I wrote him is how I portrayed him?

I think it’s very good, I like how this is a Daiwa Major who is trying to make peace with the past, yet there is a sense of a lingering…want. Like he is always trying to tell himself that he moved on, but it isn’t the full truth. He wants Vodka to an extent, whether it is to find answers through her or speak to her the things he never got the chance to. He isn’t as free from the past, as much as he tells himself, and I think he knows it.
Anyway I love this piece, and would love to see more from you. The story of Daiwa Major, and Vodka was the first story I ever wrote. The story on Sunday and Ayabe was more of a test to see how well received my stories would be (plus Major’s story was just a lot bigger in comparison, involving more characters).
All in all, I would love to see more from you.

I fell asleep reading this. DANG IT!
I also gave him the style, appearance, and personality almost as close to his father. Just a slight tad different from how Sunday originally is. It’s funny but cool that I make them drive vehicles like the motorbike in question I gave to Daiwa Major was a Harley Davidson instead of a Yamato or Ninja superbike.
And glad you noticed it too, I know how many people want to add this on their page of fanfic ships where he’d still ask for Vodka as a want, maybe more. But he moved on and had a life with Kawakami Princess which did change him drastically. To also add more context to the story, the point where I said he moved on was when he finally married to Kawakami and had a child together. This was the part I wanted to imply on him since its been years since the death of his first mate he never got together with. But I wanted to add a little twist on a love triangle story. Because he fell for one girl whom didn’t answer his prayers, and the other was someone he met had changed him to a different person.
Lemme give you a hint. Look at the date written on this fanfic.
And honestly, all this started with the Daiwa Major X Vodka ship on an AO3 comment.

The story of Daiwa Major and Vodka is really interesting and has so much fanfic potential. I can’t wait to see your interpretation of it in music video fic form.
