that was so sad wonder how Sanzo gonna handle when they find Goku. I had to find the song when i read this fic to see how it went it a really good song wnet great with what happened

WOW! what a story. you piece things together so well. i've tried to do a second one with the same name as my other "nothing else matters" i liked how the first came out but i thought it could use more. hence i'm writing version two.
you inspired me to check through my metallica disk to see what i could come up with. don't worry i'm not trying to steal your glory. *trust me i can't come close*
again i love how you fit everything together so perfectly. it makes you feel the same for goku. he gets taken for granted alot. really great job. i bow to the best.

Aw, you know I was kind of hoping Sanzo would come in and save him, but that would be expecting a little bit much from a song fic, but good anyways =3

Eerie, but well done, I must say.

The mere idea of Goku ending his own life is frightening because it's so contridicting to his character, but that's what makes the idea of toying with it so much fun. ^.^ I liked how you used the idea that Seiten Taisei was trying to keep him from being hurt in the begining. I'm such an STxGoku fan it's not even funny.

The last line (of the story, not the song) "Then, with one quick swipe, Son Goku was dead." was startling in it's intensity. It left a bitter taste in my mouth, but that's okay. I love that bitter, bitter taste.

And onto the criticsm. I liked your writing syle, and I didn't see any grammer/spelling errors, so good job. The only thing I could see is distance between your paragraphs. Like when Seiten is thinking/talking to Goku's thoughts you might want to start a new paragraph, so people won't get confused there. It also makes it easier on the eyes.

Also, lines that you want to stand out should have a paragraph of their own. It makes them stand out and gives it more of a dramatic edge then it wouldve if you left it attached to the previous paragraph. The last line, for example, would've been perfect.

All in all, well done. ^.^
