Shidarezakura - Chapter 1
Disclaimer: I do not own any of J.K. Rowling's beautiful characters but I do enjoy borrowing them every once in a while for my own (and possibly your?) amusement.
I hope that you will enjoy!
Lily glided across the unkempt grass and wrapped her jacket tighter around her body before placing her hands lightly on the trunk of a tree. A branch swayed softly across her face in such a deliberate manner that for one brief second an innocent onlooker might have thought that the caress had been purposeful. Of course this thought would have been cast aside moments later never to be spoken of again because who in their right mind would believe of such a tree? Perhaps under interrogation an innocent onlooker would claim of fleeting insanity due to the mystical fog or intoxicating smells of this particularly early morning. Lily, however, knew otherwise.
The tree stood tall with an elegant beauty, her many blossoms heavy with dew. Her name was Alba and although you might not believe it yet, Lily would have insisted that the tree had chosen this name herself. In a sudden act that might have surprised an innocent onlooker, Lily leaned towards Alba's trunk and whispered "Goodbye Alba. I truly hope that my story will be the first of many to be written across your weeping branches." Gently she pressed her lips to the bark and then unexpectedly disappeared into thin air. The only trace of her left behind was a single tear that fell to the ground mere seconds before Lily was gone. At this point our innocent onlooker might have fainted on the cold, hard floor at the sheer impossibility of the bizarre situation. Luckily the innocent onlooker is a hypothetical person so no characters were harmed this early on in the story.
