Excerpt 001

Eyes like glass.
Skin like fire.
Hair like silk.
Nails like knives.

Cold and unyielding, his eyes told scores of emotion, glossed over from the torment that ripped through his mind. To the untrained eye, his near-empty stare could be told as 'emotionless', but for those who could read them, the emotions displayed there couldn't have been clearer. His once burning gold was faded dull - darkened from the events that had just previously taken place.

His skin burned from the energy he had exuded. Hot to the touch and near feverish, his skin was still just as pale as the moon. The striped markings upon his face and wrists were displayed vividly in the bright light of the moon. Marred only by the scratches and burns received from the recent battle, he stood tall and proud.

Silvery strands of hair floated on an unseen current of wind. Each sliver of hair shone and shimmered with elegant brilliance, giving him an almost otherworldly glow. Every strand fell back into place as if it had never moved to begin with.

With claws dripping crimson rubies, he raised his only hand to his face. The coppery scent of human blood coated his digits, rapidly drying in the wind that blew past. His hand shook, he was incapable of keeping it still. He flexed his fingers, allowing the forming crusted bits to crumble and dissipate in the wind.

With his mind troubled and his motions still, he tore his gaze away to focus on the barely visible crescent moon. The night was cloudy, the air thin - it would rain soon... and with it would come his sorrow. For what would the rain be if not to dampen his soul, soak him in despair, and remind him of his sin?


OK
So this took some work out of me. I hit a bit of a depression streak for the past couple of weeks. Been dealing with a LOT here at home. But amidst the chaos that WAS my life, I wrote this. I cleaned it up a bit and decided to go ahead and publicly post it here. I thought that others might like to read it, soooo here we are.

I don't really know how to continue from here, unfortunately. This may or may not go anywhere. At all. But it certainly is something I can kinda brainstorm on. Every now and again, I get these fantastical bursts of thoughts in my brain and decide to write it all out, and well, I get things like this. (Hence the name for the story!)

Anyway, hopefully, I won't get too many flames for it! I may or may not continue it. Honestly, I don't know. If I DO continue it, it's definitely gonna be a SessKag story, buuuuuut a painful one. These chapters are going to probably come out few and far between, too, sooooo yeah. That's pretty much where I'm at with the story.

No concepts. No reference material. No outline or thoughts on what is to come. No nada. If someone would like to pitch in an idea or two, then by all means! Feel free to give me a hint! Who knows? Maybe it'll help drive the storyline.

I hope you guys enjoyed the snippet! Until next time.
