Hello and Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen, to 'I Remember'!
I was thinking about taking a quick break before I do the Sequel to 'If I Die Young' and then I thought of this.
I was first inspired to write this a while ago but thanks to School, Homework and Clubs I never had the time. Playing Oblivion for the 5th time, however, made me remember how much I wanted to do this and gave me the motivation to try again.
Hope You Enjoy!
PS: "This" is Speech,
'This' is Thoughts,
"This" is Speech in another Language (Usually Latin),
This is Written Words,
And for the Prologue;
...This…is the Lyrics of the Song.
PSS: The Song used in this Prologue is 'New Divide' by Linkin Park.
oOo
I Remember
Prologue
...I Remember Black Skies, the Lightning all around me…
Flashes of Lightning contrasted brightly against the Midnight Black of the sky, the sound of Clashing Swords Echoing around the Battlefield as the smell of Burning Flesh filled a Nearby Mage's nose.
Throwing a Ball of Flame at a Demonic-Looking Person, she stabbed the Bladed end of her Staff through another as it crept up behind her. The Staff hummed with Energy as she threw up a wall of ice to ward off yet another opponent. Breathing deeply, she turned to the Archer fighting bravely beside her, seeing a Blighted Wolf run up.
"Evelyn! Look out!"
The Auburn-Haired Archer ducked as her Mage companion threw a slim, shining silver dagger at the quickly approaching wolf, crimson blood coating the ground as it fell.
…I Remember each Flash as Time began to Blur…
Time seemed to come to a stop as the Young Mage swirled around, Silky Hair flying, at slow clapping. The figure clad in Black walked forward, still clapping, stopping only metres away from the exhausted Magister.
"Requiescat in Pace, Parum Umbra."
The Young Mage stood; shocked at the Mystery Man's Words as the battle continued as though nothing had happened.
…Like a Startling Sign that Fate had Finally found me…
Was this it, then?
'Rest in Peace…'
Was this Death finally catching up? Finally taking the Life that had belonged to him for years?
Probably.
With that thought, the mage's arms fell limp and she looked up to the frozen sky with tears glistening in her crimson, shining eyes.
'I failed you, Papa...'
The Stars seemed to sparkle brighter in response to the Girls thoughts, the only thing on the battlefield not frozen in time.
…And Your Voice was all I heard…
"Liara!"
Reluctantly pulling her gaze from the twinkling Stars and Planets, Liara turned her head towards the Raven-Haired Man's Voice, a watery smile on her face.
She didn't even need to turn to know that an archer above was aiming a silver arrow at her back, right next to her heart.
Looking directly into the man's honey yellow eyes she mouthed three words as the arrow soared towards her.
"I love you."
…Did I get what I Deserve?...
Then she fell.
oOo
So… What did 'ya think?
I know it's short but it is only the prologue, people! I Promise it will get longer, though, 'cause I have tons planned for this one!
And~ See that little button down there? That, my friends is a magic button… Okay, maybe it isn't.
