I wrote this little chapter over vacation, it seems like the last
chapter to something, but I don't have any loose ends to tie it up with, so
it will go all on it's own. It started as a little vignette I wrote when I
was feeling depressed, but now it's another In the Forests of the Night
fic. Please review it. I know I haven't written for a while, but I
haven't really had time. Please, please, please review. I like flames, I
really do. It shows me at least someone found time to read my story. And
nice reviews are even better.
I sit here, crying. The silver tears run down my face as I mourn. I am all black. Black hair, black eyes, black clothes. If it weren't for my pale skin I would be just another part of the night. The crystal goblet of wine sits in front of me, between us. It is a glass of darkness, with crimson tinged edges. I wish for the oblivion its poisoned drops could bring. I wish I could sink into death such a short time after you, my love. But I am prohibited, prohibited by a bond of blood and darkness and love.
Your silver eyes are closed forever now, your dark head rests on the granite table. Your face is peaceful in death, more so than it could ever have been in your unnatural life. Directly in front of you is a basin. The silver basin contains only more liquid night. The lone flame flickers by your hand, sending spears of crimson light shooting across the basin of blood. The silver candle also illuminates your hand and the bloody silver of the knife you used to cut that fatal gash across your wrist. You hoped that I would drink of it and in doing so sink into death alongside you. I wish I could, but I can't, as you must've known. Dammit, why'd you have to be so beautiful in death, just as you were in life?
It is too bad that we didn't know what forbidden love was in the beginning. Once we had realized what we had done, the people we had betrayed, the ancient laws we had broken, it was too late. We decided to die together. But in the end I betrayed you, as you must've known I would. I failed to arrive at the time we had set. When I arrived, two hours late, you had already died by your own hand. You used the time to set this trap for me; the one I have failed to spring.
I want you to know that I have mourned for you, and still do. As I leave now, it is only because I must leave. Immortality doesn't mean that you can remain stagnant in the flow of time, no matter how much you want to. I leave with my hand clutched around the double loop of pure silver that hangs around my neck, my last real tie to this world. The chamber in which you lie shall remain unchanged by the flow of time. When my time comes, I shall come back and die as I was meant to die, by your side, mortal once more.
It just occurred to me that this fic could just as well be a really random Yu-Gi-Oh fic, but its not, so there! And now I'm using my psycho powers. Oops, I meant psychic powers. You see the review button. All you want to do is press it. You will review my story. You will!!
