Note:
This is what I guess you'd call an adaptation to this one book I read.
. No I'm not going to tell you what book, you'd end up going and
getting it from the library and spoil EVERYTHING. *pooooooooooooooooouts* And
that wouldn't be any fun. But if you HAVE read this book…. Just know I DID this
this way for a reason. Its just too bad I lost *MY* copy of the book. *sigh* A
chapter or two might be added in the next couple of hours depending on my
progress. And least Chapter One will get up. You'll notice throughout this and
other parts that I'll use some Episode Zero stuff. Never really wrote a fic
like this so be kind. ^_^;;; Also know there are GW and EW characters
throughout and non-GW characters, don't beat me too hard, onegai?
Prologue
September 19
L2 Orphanage
The dogs were howling.
Lords I wished they'd stop.
Focus. Shoot. Move on.
The light's dark here… gotta adjust it.
All the orphans… gods why? Nevermind… just take the
picture.
Focus. Shoot. Move on.
My hands shook as I opened the camera, taking out the
old roll and inserted a new one.
"We need to be leaving now Mr. Maxwell." The Sergeant
was standing in the doorway behind me. Revulsion dripped from every one of his
seemingly polite words as he stared at me. "They're just outside the village,
we shouldn't be here."
Focus. Shoot.
"We have to go."
Another room. The camera was knocked from my hands he
now stood over me with a haunted expression. "What are you a ghoul? How can you
be doing this?" I couldn't do it anymore. I was dying inside.
No. I had to do it. I bent down to pick up the fallen
camera. "Wait for me outside… I'll only be a minute." I barely heard his
muttered curse as he turned on his heel and left me alone.
No, not alone…
The orphans…
Focus. Shoot.
I could get through this! No, I couldn't. I leaned up
against the wall, closing my eyes trying to block the images from my head.
And the dogs continued to howl. I couldn't shut them
out.
I was convinced then that the world was full of
monsters.
I open my eyes and start toward the last room. I'd
just have to show them the monsters. I willed myself not to think or listen to
the dogs.
Just Focus. Shoot. And move on.
