Isabella says Good-bye
'We all have to say good-bye sometime'
He walked over to the man and women knelling on the ground, he pointed the staff weapon at there bent heads and watched them look up as he powered it. There faces full of fear as he smiled at there misery. He had no mercy for them, in his mind they were in the wrong, nothing they could do could ever change that. He picked up his right foot slamming it into the ground, kicking wet dirt into their faces.
Rain poured down on their heads, the only source of bright light coming from the great ring, shimmering bright blue ripples. A scream was heard, shaking the silent woods who awaited the execution, from a small child being restrained by a woman of great strength, one capable of holding the girl down in the torrential rain.
The woman of the two kneeling looked up, water going in her eyes as the rain beat back her hair. "What about our daughter? You can't kill an innocent child, could you?" the women yelled making her voice heard over the rain. The woman looked down at the man beside her for support, all she saw was the wet tear streaked face of a man, a father who sees no other way of saving their daughter.
"Mummy, don't leave me, Daddy help me" The girl struggled in the arms of the woman; she let another scream go and bit the woman's arm. Blood streamed down in the rain as the girl clawed at her captor.
The woman shrieked at the pain. "What should I do with the child, she is a nuisance...we could dump her on a uninhabited planet close by and pick her up later, when she calms down." She picked up the small girl and put her over her shoulder. She walked towards the Great ring.
The man holding the staff weapon chuckled. "Perhaps we should just let her see her parents die, and then she will be quiet, more in shock" he looked down at the two in front of him, their heads bowed, blood and cuts covering them, the rain soaking them and mud splashing on them.
"Dion, it's not the child's fault, it's theirs, so let's save her the misery this one time?" she shut down the great ring. Using the light of the moons she began to redial.
"Fine Marcela, take her; don't give her food though she may learn her lesson in listening to us." The man powered the weapon again. "You are lucky your daughter will not be staying to see the show" he laughed in their faces aiming the weapon at their heads.
Marcela took the girl up the cement ramp to the great ring, they walked up to the shimmering blue and stopped, she turned around snickering at the misfortunes of the couple. In her mind they were to be punished, it was their right, nothing more. The girl saw her parents die just before Marcela and she went through the water puddle of the great ring
The girl sobbed, even as Marcela placed her in front of the dialling device, throwing an old bag in the dirt and left through The Great ring. She sat there in front of the device, a small child on a dark planet with only the moon for light. Her face streaked with tears from tired eyes. The girl looked from behind the device and saw that Marcela had left her parents bag on the ground. She crawled over to the bag and grabbed the handle, dragging it into the forest of the planet behind her as she crawled. She stopped and curled up to the trunk of a huge tree, clutching the bag to her chest, which covered her whole body.
Shoulder length hair was tucked behind her ears as stray curly golden brown bangs hung in her face, she lay their in the trunk of the tree, scared and alone.
She waited there for what seemed like hours. As she closed her eyes a shimmer of blue light lit up the edge of the forest, from the old device. A gush of wind ripped through the forest from the Kawoosh of the device, sending a shiver up her spine.
Night air surrounded her and a chilly breeze was felt, how ever upset she was, the urge to sleep was slowly overtaking her. She moved more into the tree to escape the wind, the need for sleep was strong but she didn't want to, she didn't want to see their dieing faces in her nightmares, only cherished moments that she remembered. They were dead now, she knew that, they weren't the first, but this time it was different, it wasn't only the sake of killing her parents they wanted, it was her they wanted, they could have kept them alive and kept her, but their thirst for killing is strong, resisting the urge would be dire. It's this knowledge they want, the understanding of people she has, the potential knowledge she could gain. It scares them, yet they want it for themselves.
Marcela stepped through from the puddle, walking down she froze as she looked behind the dialling device. The child she was looking for wasn't there, but how could she have escaped, she looked around frantically looking for any tracks or evidence to where she could have gone. Anything that would have indicated where the child could go would have disappeared with the activation of The Great Ring. Marcela dialled The Great Ring, as it activated she looked around one more time, stepping up to The Great Ring she stopped and turned. "Isabella!" she yelled hoping for any reply before going through the water puddle.
Isabella hid her head trying not to be seen. Looking up she saw Marcela. Sitting in the trunk of the tree she clutches the bag tighter, staring into the woods around her, her mind has lost the battle, sleep overtakes her, before her eyes close her tiny voice escapes. "Bye Mummy, Bye Daddy" she whispered as she cried herself to sleep, thumb in her mouth and bag clutched to her chest. Her curly golden brown hair shimmered in the light from the moon as she slept peacefully on the abandoned planet.
A/N - Please review, I want to know what you think, its my first – and I think this is the correct term – angst kind of story.
