Welcome to Gaia! ::

{Wow, I need to catch up a little. I missed a lot… }


Elva stayed in her place, her feet mounted upon the ground. Her eyes franticly raced from all the directions around her. Her breath becoming short, Elva started to pant, panic showing in her violet eyes. Shifting her position, Elva twirled to face the direction behind her; nothing. She swallowed slowly as she stepped her right foot back, shifting it against the cold, hard ground. Her arms immediately swung to her side as she glanced all around her for anything familiar, or at least anything at all. There was still nothing; no sounds, no light, nothing! The area was surrounded by darkness. It was as though she was locked in a giant bubble.

Suddenly, a cold, heartless laugh filled the air. Elva’s eyes widen as she recognized the voice right away. Spinning around towards the direction she had been before, Elva’s eyes filled with tears. Her voice became weak as she glanced upon the sight that had appeared before her. There on the ground, lifeless laid Shiero, her body covered in fresh blood. Beside her sat Midnight, his break poking against her body. Elva fell to the ground as her knees had given out. The palms of her hands rested against the ground as she clenched them violently. Tears began to overwhelm her eyes. Then she looked towards her side. Her heart skipped a beat as her eyes locked upon her hip. Her whip, where was it? It wasn’t against her hip like always? Elva whined as a terrible thought past through her head. It was her… She was the one that had made that horrible laugh. It was her pet that sat against her sister’s body, pecking it as though it was a big oak tree. It was her that had shed her own sister’s blood. She had killed Shiero! “No, it can’t be…” Elva whimpered in a soft tone.

Elva couldn’t dare to look up but forced herself to. Her sight had become bleary as her tears had blocked her view. Her eyes darted past the body as her gaze locked upon the whip covered at blood that lay at her sister’s side. She glanced back down as her voice became weaker with each word. ”No… No…No!” Elva screamed as she picked herself up, stamping her foot against the ground, walking over towards her lifeless sister, pressing her foot lightly against Midnight’s chest, causing him to back off from Shiero a bit. He ruffled his feathers lightly as he looked down towards the ground, his big yellow eyes glowing in the darkness.

Gently, Elva bent down by her sister’s body, wiping away the tears from her eyes as she lightly ran her finger through Shiero’s hair. She had to bite down upon her lip to keep herself from crying. But it was no use; the tears continued to come. In a soft whisper, Elva began to sing the lullaby over again, which the two of them had always sung together.

“We are not together here
Though we lie entwined
To make room for the other presence
We both draw back in our minds
I have a prophecy…”

Elva stopped suddenly as tears streamed from her eyes. She lightly closed them as she began to sing the next line.

“Threatening to spill into words…”

Suddenly, Elva stopped her singing as she opened her eyes. Her eyes widen as she looked at what was around her. Durithill, two other women, and… Shiero! Elva’s eyes filled with wonder and suddenly became confused. Hadn’t she killed her sister? She had seen it with her own eyes! How?! She had no clue. She glanced down to see that both her sister’s dead body, and Midnight were all gone. Even her whip had been placed back to its rightful place. How…? She asked to herself as she looked up towards Shiero. Her voice filled Elva’s ears, and a smile rose to her face. She too sung the part of the lullaby. Her eyes with tears, however this time they were tears of joy…
