'And she would never give in.' Even as a world collapsed before her eyes. (Day 290)

She was safe here, protected by the barrier of an emerald forest. Nothing could invade its walls; their hungry gazes, despair, not even the constant stench of death could penetrate. She had been pushed through the barrier by her father only minutes before as war raged on around them. She made him a promise and it was still fresh on her lips, a promise that she would survive. A promise that she would make him proud, and a promise that she would never go against herself. He told her to promise him that his end would not be hers and through tears she agreed.

Now he was gone, fighting a final battle for everything and she was alone; forced to watch her world collapse through spaces in the leaves.

Suddenly there was noise like thunder; the kind of thunder that threw gods from their corrupted thrones and churned an ocean. Consuming everything in the world; accompanied with piercing screams and final gasps. It seemed to never end, lasting long enough to shake even souls from the hearts of the living.

Suddenly a flash of light swallowed all that existed in a sheet of blinding whiteness. But as fleetingly as it came; it had dissolved away to the world. A hollow, broken silence followed and in that moment she realized that everything was gone. There was one left to save, no more she could do; no words to take back, and nothing left to hold on to.
From here, only one choice remained; to live or give in.

And she would never give in.

High fives to everyone who read that.
I never realized how much I missed words.
Writing urge satisfied for the moment.
And why do all of my photos make terrible thumbnails?

For imperfections and glittering emotion.
Formspring..
