Okay, so I'm having a bit of writer's block with my other story, and this came to me, hit me in the face practically screaming to be written...and well, who was I to refuse? So, as usual, I got this idea in math's class. I don't do anything really, just listen to my teacher with my subconscious while I write out ideas for my future stories and one shots. And I thought, you know, different is good. So here it is...
Prologue
In the new world, Earth, things had changed. Hence the term, new world.
Love had disappeared, being misinterpreted and tainted with foul means. People who loved were considered idiots, outcasts who believed they felt something unreal. They were thought to believe in myths, because love was never experienced or seen. There was no love in this world. The same way there were no heart beats.
Everyone's heart was still, their life, their will to live, their destiny, their future, their personality, everything being breathed into them by the magic of a planet, nothing else. There was no pulse, no skipping a beat, there was nothing. Just a dying, cold heart that lay in an empty chest. People in this world were incomplete, missing an essential part of themselves, but no one ever knew what. Rumour had it that once you found your soul mate, your heart would beat again and your hole would be fixed. But it was just that, a rumour. No one had experienced it because soul mates didn't exist…
Until one pair found each other….
Until two hearts felt the magic's call...
Until Earth decided that love needed to be found...
Until two teens, two wounded and broken teens, found each other...
Until they realized that the belief, or lack thereof, in love needed to be changed, and destiny needed to be believed...
