Blistering air and slicing water whipped at my ankles, biting and swallowing on my exposed legs. My fingers barely held my weight, my arm struggling with my weight. A claw dangled mere inches from my free hand, reaching out, dark green fingers hungrily desperate to grasp my wrist.
"Hold on!" My precious friend cried, voice hoarse and raw with emotion.
I shook my head, barely aware of myself crying in the roaring world of crashing sounds. "I-I can't..."
"Don't let go! Hang on!"
I tried my best to keep from crying out as my fingers slipped on the craggy rock, hoping only the best for my partner. In this screw head world, we were each others strength and only trustee.
I heard my name clearly above the sea I was trapped in, cutting through the great noise as I was devoured.
"Arianna!"
I wanted nothing more but to go back to the painful life that I clung to so much, for so long. My sole mission that was impossible, but we struggled on and on in forever denial.
I'm sure this world was beautiful once. Please, if there is a god, let me do something about this dying planet.
I lost the ability to breath, but I didn't choke on the dark water swirling violently around me. Instead, my consciousness faded and I closed my eyes, peacefully. Is this... Death? Or mercy?
My thoughts drifted from me as well, and the sleep I fell into was gentle.
I've gotta be honest: I know I haven't posted in a long, long time. (Since dinosaurs were around, did ya know?) I've been on a emotional roller coaster with my writing and really, all constructive critique would really be loved. Your reviews give me life, substance, and energy (that may be stretching it, but your take and view and what you like and dislike about this would be great to know~ :3)
I know there isn't much yet, but I'm working on it. I'll try to keep this the only major author's post in the story since its probably annoying~
Like I mentioned beforehand in the summary, this is just a novelization. I hope I'm able to put a good spin on it, and work on characterization in my own writing.
If you'd like to continue to see where this journey leads, please follow, and a favorite totally wouldn't hurt either ;3 *shot repeated*
I think I said what I needed to say for now :3 Please follow if you're so inclined, and review with your thoughts, likes and dislikes!
