Character: Chopper
Theme: Alone
Pairings: no. nope. no beastiality here.
Warnings: all hurt, no comfort
Chopper stared, unblinking, at the wall of his room, willing sleep to come. The moonlight cast shadows of the falling snow on the rough stone, and he watched it's movement with tired eyes. He shivered, remembering how cold it had felt that night. Normally he was happy in the snow. It was familiar and comforting even when his whole world was crashing down around him. But not that night. Not when Doctor…
He blinked away the tears that threatened to fall at the memory.
During the day, he could forget. There was so much to do-so many things to learn, so many people to save-that he had no time to think about what had happened. Doctorine provided him with plenty of distractions. But even the old witch had to sleep sometime. And Chopper was left curled up on his bed, alone.
He sighed, closing his eyes to the shifting light. Thinking about that night did nothing to help him sleep. He had another busy day in store for him, and he needed to be at his best. Doctorine would settle for nothing less. And he really was tired.
As the last of his consciousness slowly faded away, he futilely prayed he wouldn't have any more nightmares.
Why is it that these keep getting shorter? Mah, whatever. They're supposed to be short anyway. Sorry for the sadness. It's not my fault! The theme I choose is totally random. Blame the hats!
