Prologue: Comatose
You never go Your always here (suffocating me)
Under my skin
I cannot run away
Fading slowly
In the darkness of the night the strange and beautiful gleaming white orbs humans called stars shined brightly through the dark. The creamy and crescent moon slowly filled the sky in its full cycle as well, like a large cookie that wished to be noticed behind the curtain of dark clouds, bright and vibrant aura glowing down to the world.
Just like most nights where the city was a distant dream, it was quiet. This stories end taking place here, in these vast lands where the heavenly body above seemed to warp the pure white beckon against the lustrous surface of a blood red plate. Here where trees sprouted around the area like flowers in bloom, here were no humans roamed for hours and miles, and where other unknown beings were free to be in their natural form.
The peaceful silence was broken by the unnatural murmurs of men. It was a musical buzz that if a human heard would wonder if a camper was speaking over a transceiver, although it was anything but when you put these voices under the crimson orbs glowing circling the area.
The red of these vibrant eyes appeared like the bright color of fresh blood spilling from the human body, set eagerly on one being before them, in anticipation. This important figure was sitting quietly under the silhouette of the moon, numb to the knowledge of these last moments not one wished for upon the world…destruction, chaos, all the definitions of pain and bloodshed.
Slowly, the gleam of the moon brightened along the heavens when the clouds separated and the light revealed the important figure to be a crucified female. Her head was down in submission, black locks of wires sprouting from the cranium which spiraled around their form and hid any detailed appearance there was. Although in small peeks were revealed the crimson of her armor, and if one is lucky they could also spot the deep blue tattoo of a phoenix etched across her back.
Letting go of me
Reaching as I fall
I know it's already over now
Horus, minutes, and seconds ticked before the female finally opened her eyes from her unconsciousness. At first she wondered why she felt pain, trying to move her sore limbs before realizing she couldn't. That was when she noticed the voices, freezing in fear before gingerly and curiously, peeking through cracks of her hair so not to alert her awakening.
She gasped silently in dismay, glowing icy blue orbs wide in fear when she caught sight of the vile smiles watching her. For a split second she believed they noticed her awakening until they turned their red optics to the sky.
The female figure relaxed in relief, carefully assessing the situation to realize she was in a crucifix-like position. It wasn't something that the evil male counterparts probably desired, but it was something that was to be for the glass structure of her cage held a mind of its own.
What…happened? The female wondered, trying in vain to move her limbs in the frozen prison that ate up half her body. Slowly, the female did recall how she arrived to this moment, tied down and readying to be sacrificed. The recollection though didn't give her much assurance; instead it left a tight hollowness in her gut.
My best defense, running from you
I can't resist, take all you want from me
Breaking slowly…
Without sudden warning she jolted and arched in the little freedom her torso was given to her, chest unexplainably sparking with white searing pain. All the while the moon ticked, slowly filling its milky liquid surface so high above her.
The movement easily gained the attention of the disarrayed males circling her person. They sounded so eager to her hearing. It made her stomach twist and for the hollow feeling to grow in numbers with the flicker of fear burning in her heart.
Oh no, it wasn't just the fear or was the insane burning and burning that warmed her body in unnatural temperatures, to her feeling hotter than the licks of a flame eating her within. Her eyes were trained on the sky, the moon above becoming fuller. She recalled how much she loved the moon, especially when it was full like it was in seconds about to become; even in this night of pain she felt just a nostalgic feeling of happiness when seeing the heavenly body above.
"GAAAAAH!" Was her pained shrieks filling the night air, it was unnatural though. A saddened, mechanical sound, which made even the wolves miles and miles apart howl in their sympathy. "NA – UhH – WAAAAAAH!"
I'd give it all to you
I offer up my soul
It's already over…already over now!
The pained female did what she could to release the pain, throwing her head around, thrashing with no avail and letting her voice box bleed raw. But the pain continued with no mercy until she couldn't tell where she was anymore.
She could no longer hear the eager voices cheering the agony within her, no longer did she notice the trickles or gurgled sounds her miserable screams made while streaks of blood spilled from the chin, and no longer did she notice how complete the moon was which seemed to reflect like a mirror in her eyes.
No, even the memories that flash before her eyes in beautiful clips, she couldn't seem to get a real grasp on either. Her past and the future she wished wouldn't happen…even the one she wished to have made with her loved ones passed without little thought through her processors –
ZZeeehRREEEH
That was the sound made when her screams unnaturally echoed and the sacrificial females body seemed to thump with energy. The sight, although painful and deserved of sympathy given by the nature, was a different story to the crowd who cheered and burst in ecstasy for the soon awaited end of this aged earth.
Give it all to you
Letting go of me
Reaching as I fall
I know it's already over now
With no sudden halt the heart jolted, the heat soared, the grounds shook and light crashed from the skies down into her and back. Through it all though, the female barely noticed much but numb pain and white haze of her vision that engulfed her entire being.
But perhaps that telltale voice of her name being called desperately through the night was one that made her cry before she feel to the whim dark recesses of her mind.
I know it's already over now!
It's already over now!
I know it's already over, already over…
Song: Already Over by Red
