Shadows Befallen
-disclaimers: eh, this story is written from an RP still in the making between me and a now close friend. It started quite a few months ago, so i think i've got enough to write about now. Anyways, Stori -c- me, yoshi (not the dude from mario, btw) -c- janus.
-AN: I shoved this little story in the Outlaw Star section because both the charaters backgrounds are based on the c'tarl species, so i thought it was only proper. So if you're looking for a story with Gene/Melfina etc., THIS ISN'T IT! [[ Pleeease dont complain to me about it either... I didnt make up the specie of the ctarl so i cant really put it anywhere else. you all understand, dont'cha?]]
Okay!! Time to finally get started!! YAY!!! :}
+- Chapter One : Shadows Unseen -+
The sun set over a blanket of a crowded forest, silence capturing the moment as a calm wind through the swirling white wisps of clouds that soared in the multi-coloured skies, a crescent moon settled against the lighter background of the horizon, opposite the large, burning sun. A particularly shadowed area would be holding hostage an old tavern, seemingly abandonded... glassless window covered with rotting sheets of wood, Moss climbing up the sides of the place, the door large and heavy, hinges rusted. To enter the door was to find ones self in a large room, supposedly the only one the tavern held. It was spacious.. a bar placed near the corner, several tables and chairs scattered about the place, and an old tattered couch placed off to the side, though not against a wall. A small section of the back wooden wall would seem to be offcentered, as if there were some sort of slide-away door to be found, though only the master of this building would know. The only light that shown into the room filtered in through the cracks within the boards mounted on the windows, but the rest of the area was shrouded in soft shadows. The slender form of a young ctarl girl, perhaps in her mid-20's (if thought of in human years), would be found sprawled across that old tattered couch, her spine sunken into the back of the couch, slightly under and behind the flat yet comforting cushions, her left leg propped upon the upper back of the couch, her right lazily thrown over the edge. Her arms were lain comfortably over her body, claw-tipped fingers resting over her midsection, her head was turned to her right, lids heavily drawn over orbs of an intense sooty grey. That head of hers was surrounded in a mess of wild off-white locks, scattered over the couch and her shoudlers, long bangs hanging down, blocking her eyes, had they been open, from any other patrons that could have been in the yet so empty room. She was clad in the usual attire for her, a pair of voiceless black pants, a bit loose on the legs, and a blank black shirt. She also had a dark trenchcoat that she often wore, but was not needed as she napped, and so it was slung over the back of the couch, the collar an inch above her chest. Such a peaceful sight, one would never suspect the horrors this young feline-like woman held just under her feet... literally.
[[ Oo-hoo hoo, now WHAT DOES SHE MEAN? er... what do...i....eh... we'll have to find out! ...Later!! Because it just so happens to be 3:45am right now and, SHUGO BE TIRED!! I actually want to add quite a bit more to this first chapter but i'm just too tired. -.-; But trust me, chapter two will probably be up within the next 24 hours, gauranteed!...sort'uv.. Aw well. R/R pleeze. Flame me or not.. i dont care right now. I tried to give a little suspensey ending... d'ya feel it? d'ya?! Alright.. Shugo must go sleeeeeeeeeeep. G'night. |:3 ]]
