It's a Beautiful Day

by brookeyy14

A figure crashed into a clearing, staggering and falling the ground. Thump-thump Thump-thump He could hear his heart beat getting slower. He was dying. It was over. Finally. Peace. The sun was shining, not a cloud in the sky. An untouched part of nature, the last part of innocence in the world, before it's destruction. It was a beautiful day. How did it come to this?

Hey all- words can even describe how sorry I am for not updating my stories! I actually have plots and drafts for a couple chapters to, I just need to type it out. These past two years have been hectic and hell and good-I got my first boyfriend, but I had so much family drama and tensions going on. It put so much stress on my life, occupying so much of my time. On top of that it was my senior year of High School so I had essays and college applications….Things have just finally started to settle down and I mina much better emotional and physical place to start writing. I promise I will update! I actually have more time to write in college. Again I'm so sorry!

Below is something that came to me in my WCI(writing and critical inquiry class) and below is what I wrote. Tell me what you think; I want your honest thoughts! This could either be an original story or it could be fan fiction (Percy Jackson), you guys tell me! Tell me what you think and where you could see this going. I promise to have an update for you guys within 2 weeks.

Enjoy and once again sorry!

I collapsed on the ground in the clearing, clawing at my chest, struggling to breathe.

Thump-thump

Thump-thump

I could hear my heart beat echo around me, as if it was beating out of my body.

Thump-thump

Thump-thump

I could feel my heart beating slower, each intake of breath getting harder getting harder to take.

Thump-thump

I gasp, struggling to get air into my lungs

Thump-thump

The sun beats down on my face and there is a light breeze, the trees slightly swaying in the wind.

Thump-thump

It's a beautiful day. How come I didn't notice it before?

Thump-thump

I hear voices in the distance but I know they wont make it in time.

Thump-thump

Blood trickles out of the corner of my mouth, and I gasp to try to get some air into my body.

Thump-thump

It fails. My heartbeat is slowing down. I'm fading, I can feel it. I'm dying.

Thump-thump

I can hear the footsteps coming closer, but not close enough. I'm so sorry.

Thump-thump

How did it come to this?

Thump

It's a beautiful day,

Sky falls, you feel like

Thump

I stare up at the sun and the blue sky. At the woods, trees, and animals around me. The last part of nature that hasn't been cursed to die.

Thump

I take one last breath; one last taste of the sweet air I have breathed my entire life.

Thump

I slowly close my eyes.

Thump.

This is goodbye. I love you all.

Thump - his last heartbeat

His whispered words flow with the wind, soft and gentle. "I'm sorry."

It's a beautiful day

Don't let it get away…..

And nature moans and weeps for the lost innocent soul who was not meant to die on this beautiful day. He was never meant to be cursed.

The world will never be the same.
