Rewrite the Stars
It was the night of the dance. But Blake wasn't in the ballroom with the others. Standing in the courtyard gazing at the shattered moon was the cat faunus who pretended to be human, wearing her black dress… and her little black bow. She had left everyone including her date Sun, because she realized she regretted agreeing to go with the monkey faunus. Don't get her wrong, she did like Sun. He was honest, earnest, he was a real friend… but a friend was all Blake could see him as. Because someone else had snuck his way into her heart.
He smiled a silly smile, he cared about his friends, he helped everyone whether they were human or faunus, and when he learned she was a faunus, when he learned she used to be a terrorist… he didn't change the way he looked at her. He believed her when she said she changed, and he didn't treat her badly once. He was strong, kind, heroic, lovable… and human. She was cynical, afraid, she did horrible things, and… a faunus. There was no hope she could be with Sora.
Sora ran into the courtyard looking for her. There she stood gazing in the moon. Standing in the night alone, fearless, but alone. He didn't want her to be alone. He approached her.
You know I want you~
Blake turned to face Sora at the sudden declaration. Sora reached her.
It's not a secret I tried to hide~
I know you want me~
Blake looked down, her cheeks turning red, but tears threatened her eyes. Sora gently placed a hand on her cheek and had her look back to him.
So don't keep saying our hands are tied~
Sora began to wipe away her tears and then with slight hesitation. He removed her bow.
You claim its not in the cards
That fate is pulling you miles away
Out of reach from me~
Sora pulled her gently into his arms. Took her hand in his and wrapped his arm around her.
But here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
Then they began to dance in the courtyard. Not caring if someone saw them.
What if we rewrite the stars~
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing can keep us apart
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing can keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars
Maybe the world could be ours tonight
Everything Sora said sounded so good, so right. The thought of just being together not caring what people thought. Blake wanted that so bad. She almost did. But then she saw some people watching them dance. Looking at them in disgust, whispering things she could only assume be terrible things about her and Sora. Blake suddenly pulled away and ran.
Later Sora was in downtown Vale in his battle attire. Blake sat on the rooftop watching him, also in battle attire, holding her ribbon. She stood up and tied it back on.
You think it's easy?
You think I don't want to run to you?
As she walked on the rooftops, she saw a burned down building. Among the remains was a 'No Faunus Allowed' sign, and the White Fang's Emblem was sprayed onto the remains.
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through~
She pulled out her sword, it folded into it's cycle form and she threw it at a nearby building then she swung on the ribbon. As she soared through Vale's sky she looked towards Beacon in the distance.
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be just you and me within these walls
She landed on another roof and watched a male dog faunus get pushed down by a group of humans. When one of them pulled out a knife she shot it out of his hand. When they looked and saw a huntress they ran away in fear.
But when we go outside
You're gonna wake up and see that it was hopeless after all
Blake threw her sickle again and swung off the roof.
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you're mine?
Everything keeps us apart~
Blake jumped over a White Fang rally where members were holding, 'death to the human race' and 'We're the superior race,' over their heads.
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the can be ours
Tonight~
Suddenly, Blake's sickle slipped free and she began to fall. Towards a dark void, who knows how long she would have fallen, or if she could survive hitting the ground? She didn't have to know the answer. Sora flew through the air and caught her. Blake's ribbon came loose and floated down into the darkness forgotten. They seem to just float there in darkness, a single spot in the universe that was safe, and just them. They looked into each other's eyes.
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you~
It feels impossible
Blake said in distress. Sora shook his head.
It's not impossible
He assured, but Blake was still afraid.
Is it impossible?
Blake pulled herself closer to Sora as tears began to run down her eyes.
Say that it's possible
For one precious moment, that was worth so much struggle and heart ache, the two allowed themselves to be together.
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world could be ours tonight?
Then the fall of Beacon came. Blake had to watch her best friend lose her arm to save her. The White Fang destroyed the school she came to love as her home… and Sora…
He laid unconscious in the small medical tent. His torso was bandaged. The doctors said he would live, but he had to stay in bed for at least a month. Blake approached him, afraid and defeated.
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide.
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied.
She leaned over, to give him their first and final kiss. When Sora opened his eyes, she faded away.
Blake sat up in her bed in Menagerie. It was still night time. She got up and went to the nearest window, the moon was out.
She couldn't help but wonder, was Sora looking at it too?
Again, I was bored.
This makes me want to write a Sora and Blake fic. Which is hard since I put all my effort into my Sora and Weiss fic.
I write for one reason and one reason alone… because it's fun. So what if what I write doesn't make much sense to some of you. It's for fun and nothing else.
