1. Empty Hearted

Chapter one- Empty hearted

#Third person POV#

Marceline loved rain. But not today, not while staring at her father's grave.

Lots of people she didn't knew came to give condolences, and say he was a great man.

"All a fluffy mountain of crap" she thought.

He was a great man,yes,but the were just saying that because they pitied her.

She HATED , she dropped a single lily on the grave and turned around to leave,something no one expected.

Thinking she was crying, Lena went after her cousin,only to almost be hit, on purpose obviously, by a lightning bolt.

Lena's POV#

After almos being hit by lightning, Lena knew her cousin wanted to be alone. She redirected her attention to the grave once more, eyeing a recent picture of Macon and his daughter and an old one of him and his long gone wife. That's when she really noticed it. Marceline looked nothing like them. She had piercing icy blue eyes, while Macon had green eyes and her mother,Martha, had caramel Brown the hair was the complete oposite. Hers was a platinum blonde hair,and theirs was raven black.

Suddenly, music started playing inside her head and Lena knew who it . Her cousin, despite de eye color, was a Caster.A VERY powerful one. Her power to create and control ice was amazing,but, accidentally she completely froze Gatlin once, and she hid her powers ever since. Lena didn't really knew what kind of Caster she was because she could both create and her eyes were not green,nor yellow, nor both, like Lena herself.

She was so lost in her thought that she didn't realize the music had changed to one her uncle really loved,for it had been written by his so loved wife.

Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness

Who will be there for you
Comfort and care for you
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion

Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you
You've always known your heart was on its own

So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone

Learn to be lonely
Life can be lived, life can be loved alone.

#3ºperson POV#

He ran trough the passageway to escape the mob. Erik knew he didn't have his mask,but he couldn't go back.

They would kill him.

He ran for what seemed ages, until he reached a stopped and looked back, tears still streaming down both his cheeks,thinking of Christine.

Oh,Christine…

"No!She chose the fop"a little voice in his mind shook all those thoughts away and looked at the door,strangely earing a soft melody, before stepping through it.

#Marceline's POV#

"Why did you leave me daddy! I'm not ready yet! I can't control it without you! I will freeze Gatlin forever, if not the world! Look to what I alread did to my room! Come back daddy, please. Please." I exclaimed to the air.

With tears streaming down my cheeks, I sat in my frozen window, just wanting to die.
