A/N: Might seem a bit scattered--it's just a big metaphor. Yet another old fic.
Excerpt: It's hard to sever, to separate completely from one's twin soul, hard to break off a bond that's always been there.

They are very close, close in a sense that even though they chose different paths, they are just walking on opposite sides of the street. Both boys are still heading to the same path, to the same grand destiny, but they just chose different ways to get there.
(Maybe that's what makes them so alike; their mentality. Their eagerness to fight, the rush of the battle, the feelings behind their actions. Parallels, except this is the one time that parallels can actually connect to one another.)
It's hard to sever, to separate completely from one's twin soul, hard to break off a bond that has always been there. So while one tries to do the impossible, the other chases.
After all, chasing constantly for something it can never reach is the purpose of a reflection. The shadow will always follow.
