He sighs causing another piece of his soul to escape his lungs in a cloud of air and disappear into the darkness.
His pale, frostbitten skin could only ache as the harsh wind ripped at his dying body that sat to rest in the snow.
He wanted to escape this eternal winter.
Shivering violently, the boy forced himself to stand and trudge ahead desperately clinging to hope.
"Come on, Arata. That's enough rest for now..." He calls out to his friend who was sleeping soundly ahead. Arata was sitting up with his back to the wind, the odd position was to keep him from falling asleep completely, yet he did not respond to Toji's voice. "Seriously, we gotta get moving or..." He reached out to wake his friend.
Suddenly, the bitter winter had managed to become even colder as Toji stood against the wind that beat against him scattering the snow that had rested in his hair, his weak hand tightening against Arata's shoulder.
Toji swore silently as he laid his friend to rest in the soft bed of snow. The ivory flakes scattered across Arata's pale body, a small smile on his blue, cracked lips.
"At least he's with Von now..."
With tear stained cheeks, Toji trudges ahead into the blizzard. The wind relentlessly beats at him, the cold burning his wet cheeks.
Behind him two children played hide and seek in the snow.
Their happy laughter did not reach him, only faint lullabies did.
Disclaimamento! I do not own Terror in Resonance or Zankyou no terror. Just saying.
Well, I've been writing this for a while even though I did not know alot about this anime. I guess my sister inspired me?
Anyway, this is an AU, but I don't know where this takes place. In a metaphor maybe?
So as I said I don't know much about it so they're probably out of character...
Also, Von is Five in this story just because I don't know her name. (I kinda thought it would be nice if Nine, Five could be together that way.)
Von is Icelandic for Hope (AWWWW Five is Nine's hope)
There will probably only be one more chapter in this story.
