The sun's rays were warm against Sanya's cheeks, the wind enveloped her, playing with the hem of her dress. She bent down plucking a white dandelion from the earth, holding it between her index finger and thumb. With a quick puff, she sent the little white seedlings along their journey into the wind. She turned, her eyes falling upon a bright red banner hanging in between some tress. It was soft almost velvety in appearance with gold embroidered words that read:
The First Annual Copperkey Cafe Picnic
A bright smile crossed her face as she gazed upon her friends enjoying their own free time. Miss Copperkey and Albie were setting up a table for the food. The owner placed a gentle finger against her lips as she let out a faint chuckle while Albie frantically attempted to keep a linen on the table while the wind was trying to take off with it.
Pan had found himself a shade tree and was nose deep in a large dusty looking book. It seems even while relaxing he was focused on his studies, something Sanya wasn't entirely familiar with. Caellum sat with his legs crossed, tuning his wooden acoustic guitar. He would nod occasionally while turning the little knobs on the end after successfully getting the correct sound from one of the strings.
Skylar was standing up in the field with a huge smile on her face, throwing a rather large stick across the field. Bear's thunderous paws rampaged through the grass, his large and happy tongue hanging out of his mouth while he ran down the field to fetch his prize. Sanya stood there, admiring everyone, her own smile seemed to reach all the way to her ears.
"
Come sit down Brat, we're about to start." A familiar voice drew Sanya's attention as she ran over and kneeled down next to Caellum. Miss Copperkey opened up with a speech, giving a brief history of the Copperkey Cafe and ending with a grateful tone for everyone attending. Once she was finished, Caellum stood up announcing to everyone he needed to share something. His words seemed to take the breath from everyone sitting around listening to him, Miss Copperkey even began to wipe a few tears away from the corner of her eyes. Caellum kneeled down in front of Sanya, lifting her hand up, "
Would, you do me the honor?" He said as he pulled out a small golden ring, holding it inches away from Sanya's fingers.
Ba-dump...
Ba-dump...
Sanya had become aware of her heartbeat, a deep echo ringing through out her body. This distorted her vision but once she was finally able to refocus all she could see was blackness. A thick black fog surrounding her. She seemed to be floating... somewhere, she used her hands to swat away the black fog but it never cleared. A sickening metallic laugh echoed through out the darkness. She began to grow fearful... but suddenly a sweet voice could be heard. It was faint and the words inaudible but Sanya strained to hear it. It wasn't talking to her... the voice was singing. She strained he ears even more, trying to hear whatever she could. She was able to pick up on familiar words.
Fear not this night...
You will not go astray...
Meanwhile, Sanya continued to sleep in her bed, making the occasional noise. It was the first signs of life she had shown in days. Sweat covered her body, dreaming of that nightmare but her eyes did not open.
