A/N: I've never really done a 100 word challenge before and I couldn't decide which of my OC's I wanted to use for it so I'm just going to use a different one for each chapter :). They won't give any of my other stories away, these are just unrelated one-shots. Beauty-Mikey&May (Resident Evil)
It was really hard to find beauty in this world. Not when the world has turned into this god forsaken wasteland, nothing but sand and dead land. Dead land, dead plants, dead places and dead people. Everywhere you turn there was always something reminding you of how life used to be, before the T-virus. Nobody ever talks about it, it brought up memories of things we had lost. Alive, beautiful things. May was amazed at how people had just given up on the idea of escaping this world. Escaping and finding somewhere lush and green, somewhere with actual life populating it. May knew that she'd be like them too if it weren't for Mikey's remarkable talent. The countless times that she'd gotten the blonde to describe his home town in Australia, the wildlife, the people, May was fascinated by the place. It had become something of a fairy tale, a bedtime story for her and she found that whenever she thought of the word "Beauty" she'd think of Mikey and this magical place that he came from.
For Mikey, "Beauty" came to him in the form of his dark haired other half. He always told her about his hometown because of the smile that it put on her face, the dream like look she had when she thought of his home. Whenever told him that all the beauty had gone from this world, he'd look them in the eye and just say "Bullshit." The way she moved hypnotized him, she always moved so gracefully, yet so alive as well. Sometimes he'd just sit and watch her and K-mart, May's dark curls contrasting with Kay's blonde hair, the blonde girls loud, lively actions and the brunettes quieter responses. Mikey remembers when it rained for the first time in months. He remembers how everyone dived for cover but May just grabbed his hand and pulled him out into the down pour and started to dance. Splashing mud and wet sand everywhere, they both laughed at each others silliness and he remembers the kiss they shared in front of everyone. The taste of her lips mixed with the rain is the best thing Mikey has ever tasted and he doesn't remember anything more beautiful than May soaked through and laughing.
It's really hard to find beauty in this world?
Bullshit.
