Will You Fall Away With Me Or Is Our Love In The Smoke (Prologue)The soft sounds of the ocean intermixed with the faint breeze blowing across the beach filled the ears of the young black haired man, who watched with bated breath as his curly bubblegum pink haired lover teasingly stripped out of her cream white dress and exposed her naked body to the chill breeze. A soft moan escaping her lips as the breeze crawled up her spine and gently caressed her soft pink nipples."I could tell you this," She cooed as she slowly swayed her curvaceous body as dark pink rose petals drifted on the breeze before they leisurely cascaded down upon her nude body, "but you know it goes without saying. So instead I'll reminisce about far better things that drifted through my mind during…some other kind of daydream.""Rose that….that….you..." Swallowing the black haired man slowly made his way to her. His feet sinking deeper and deeper into the scratchy sand. The miniscule grains digging further and further into his calloused feet until they drew blood making him hiss, as he struggled to claw himself out of the sands and into his beloved's gentle and enticing embrace, "R-r-rose!" He hissed gritting his teeth digging his pudgy fingers into razor sharp sand, "Please Rose! Help me!" He howled as the grains of sand ripped through his fingertips and chipped the bone, dying the soft white sand a blackish crimson as he sunk deeper and deeper into their depths.Watching with a cruel smile upon her face, Rose chuckle as she began to twirl in slow circles under the full moon. The rose petals clinging to her pale skin began to wither with each twirl before falling to the ground, a curled up, rotted, lifeless husk as Rose began to giggle after asking a simple question."Oh Greg will you fall away with me?"In the fleeting moments before the sands completely swallowed him, he watched as an alabaster skinned woman glided across the sands into the arms of his beloved a wicked grin filling her narrow cheeks before she stole a single kiss from Rose underneath the full moon's pale light.--The deafening screech of sirens and screams for help appeared to fall on deaf ears as the imposing tan skinned woman lumbered through the thick smoke and scorching flames. Her hazel eyes scanning the dark black smoke for some unholy entity, one that like her, must be unaffected by the smoke and flame, but as flames crawled higher and higher up the crumbling beams, no such entity manifested itself for her."Lapis, please!" The woman pleaded as she reached out to a cloud of smoke, only for it to waft away as she came close, "I need you! I need you so badly!""Then take off your blindfold and tell me what you see." A soft voice whispered in her ear."Interchanging doors." The woman replied as she watched the smoke and flames part to reveal a corridor of flame seared doors that each added to the cacophony of screams that drowned out the crackling of the white hot flames."Perhaps your naked eyes are trapped in a dream?" The voice questioned as the woman yelped in pain as a large red burn filled her arm, "Should I even waste my time unveiling my disguise?" The voice hissed as another agonizing burn seared her flesh, but this time Jasper watched as a tendril of smoke swirled around her arm before becoming a wisp of vapor as it floated lazily into the air, "It's not as if you realize that nothing is what it seems." The voice mocked as a thick tendril of smoke wrapped around Jasper's throat and whipped her around to face a thick plume of smoke that slowly transformed into a lithe woman with ash grey eyes and charcoal black skin."Lapis!" The woman cried as she reached out to caress the figures cheek only for her cupped palm to drift through her ethereal form."Tell me what you want." Lapis ordered as her fingers slowly danced up the large woman's arm, leaving jagged red burns that made her wince and gasp, "Tell me what you need." She cooed as she pressed a scalding kiss to the woman's pulse making her gasp in ecstasy before she tried to pull Lapis close only for her palms to coated in ash as they wafted through her swaying hips."I want you!" The woman growled as Lapis pressed yet another scalding kiss to her cold flesh, "I NEED YOU! Y-y-you're like…like…aaahh! A drug." She moaned as Lapis traced her thumb over the bridge of her nose."Like a drug?" Lapis questioned as she grabbed her wrists and pinned them to her side. Ghe smell of burnt charcoal and cigarette ash filled the women's nostrils as Lapis leaned in and kissed her. Her ash coated tongue spreading her lips before it entered her mouth and swirled around making the woman gag as she attempted to pull away, only for Lapis to push her back into one of the charred doors as a thin plume of smoke wafted outward from their locked lips. "We're lover's in the smoke," Lapis's voice stated as the thin plume became a dark black cloud that surrounded them, "and we can't breathe." She cooed as she stepped back from the swirling mass of smoke and looked down at the lifeless body of the woman, her face pale and gaunt as a thin trail of dark grey ash dribbled down her chin.
