Cast No Shadow

 Ahh, yes. This is my first attempt at a video. This is "Cast No Shadow" by Oasis.

You know the drill: the song was written by Noel Gallagher, owned by Sony Music. (The rights to the song, not Noel.;-) Characters are property of K.A. Applegate and Scholastic Publishing. Everything not mentioned above is mine.

[We see human Tobias in going over a boardwalk, then walking along the beach, looking out at the water. The sun is setting, and no one else is out.]

Here's a thought for everyman [Tobias is singing]

Who tries to understand what is in his hand [He turns and looks away from the water]

He walks along the open road of love and life [The camera focuses in on what he sees- a ghost figure of him and Rachel, sitting in the sand laughing.]

Surviving if he can [There is a glare on the camera for a second, and then we see Tobias sitting on the porch of a house.]

Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say [Tobias looks at a ghost of him and Rachel standing close to each other. The ghost of Tobias is saying, "I love you."]

Chained to all the places that he never wished to stay [There's a glare on the camera, and the ghosts disappear]

Bound with all the weight of the words he tried to say [The camera focuses on Tobias as he sings.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [The camera pans around Tobias. The sun is in front of him, but he has no shadow.]

As they took his soul they stole his pride [The camera glares again, and Tobias is once more walking along the beach.]

As they took his soul they stole his pride [Tobias sees another ghost of him and Rachel. This time they're walking towards Tobias, holding hands.]

As they took his soul they stole his pride [The camera glares, and there are no ghosts.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [Tobias stops walking and looks out to the ocean. As the music plays, we see short scenes of Tobias and Rachel together.]

Here's a thought for everyman [Tobias turns around.]

Who tries to understand what is in his hand [He's looking at something out of the camera's view.]

He walks along the open road of love and life [The camera turns, and we see a ghost of Rachel standing a few yards away.]

Surviving if he can [Tobias walks quickly to Rachel.]

Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say [Rachel looks at Tobias and smiles.]

Chained to all the places that he never wished to stay [Tobias smiles back, and holds Rachel's hands.]

Bound with all the weight of the words he tried to say [They stand there, doing nothing.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [Tobias moves in and kisses her.]

As they took his soul they stole his pride

As they took his soul they stole his pride

As they took his soul they stole his pride

As they took his soul they stole his pride [There is yet another glare, and Rachel is gone.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [Tobias steps back.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [He looks around.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [The camera gets another glare, and then we see Tobias as a hawk.]

As he faced the sun he cast no shadow [Tobias flies away. We see the ground beneath him- he has no shadow.]

 **Deep sigh** I'm so glad I got this out of my system. I thought of it when I took a nice walk on the beach, and there was this amazing sunset. Of course, then I had someone walking along with me and nagging me, so I couldn't exactly whip out a pen and paper to write it down. How do you like it? Review, please. I'll cry if you don't.
