Moonstones
Yeah, the summary sucks. Then again, I thought of this about midnight. So lets see what this originally one-shot idea will lead. I think there will be twelve chapters in this. ^^V I've already written the end one. (winks) Decided to write something other than Yellow Rose.
Sorry if these chapters confuse you--in a way, they're meant too. Indistinct writing. New approach for me. All of these chapters are most likely going to be short, so that's how it goes. And, please, please, please, tell me what you think. ^^V It's important to me.
She sat there.
It was raining.
Tears ran in silent rivers down her face, mirroring her pure heart's pain.
No sobs escaped her petite form. She was past that. Couldn't feel pain anymore. Physically.
The wind beat out its steady melody, tossing her silver hair in every direction.
She missed them. All of them. They didn't mean to leave her here, all alone.
But they had. Each and every one.
A stone fell into the river, falling faster than the drops.
...Or had she left them?
She didn't know, didn't care. All she knew was that she was alone.
Her blue eyes leaked more tears. She had only wanted to protect everyone. Was that too much to ask?
She felt so cold, so removed from herself.
Everything felt so surreal. Was everyone she truly loved...dead? Shingo, Mamo-chan...minna?
Her hair had escaped from their 'classic' odengos, plastered to her body with the rain.
She still had a rose in her pocket. Mamo-chan had given it to her earlier as a present.
"Usako! Happy birthday!" He leaned forward and gave the rose to her, only too conscious of her fathers resentful eyes. He risked much just by calling her 'Usako'.
She was so happy. Everyone was in her home for once. Even the Outer Senshi.
Hotaru-chan, Mamo-chan...minna? Everyone is dead...? Does that mean I'm--
The rain stopped, suddenly.
For now.
