Part 1 – a nightmare that is and was and will come

Moving away from the wall, the girl walked slowly forward, her face mask of terror. Laying before her was him, the boy she had always dreamed of, except he wasn’t breathing.

Vile blood stained his shirt.

Tears came. she was silent, but still they fell like waterfalls from her eyes. The boy’s eyes were open, his expression betrayal. The girl bent down still silent and touched his cold face, she then gently with the tips of her fingers closed his eyes. She cradled his face and kissed him. Their goodbye kiss. Then still silent she got up and ran, escaping her deepest nightmare.

The storm rumbled over her, the grass was covered in the horrible remnants of  war. Flies covered the bodies, that lay in unnatural positions before her eyes. She closed her eyes and began to scream loudly, hoping to escape, but her foot caught something and she fell. The girl landed in the bloodied mud, she reached out her hand to brace herself and felt it touch something cold.

The gem glimmered in front of her eyes as she traced it’s shining outline with her thumb.

“Ow.” she spoke in surprise. “It cut me” the girl got up and looked at the blood on her fingers.

How did it come to this? Why is this happening? Why did they betray me so? Why?
