Yeah! I put another chapter on, hooray for me! This ones short though, and
more like present thinking then past thinking. Bear with me okay, I'm just
making this up as I go along (sort of, kind of). But more chapters will be
added all the way to the day he and Vicious..WHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! I'm gonna
cry when writing it! "Sniff" Please let me know what you think still, and
thanks for the reviews!
You said you didn't need comrades
But I'm attracted to that word
To the point of tears.
"Are you talking about the dead guy?"
I nodded in anticipation, hoping the solider had seen him. "Yeah I guess he hangs about over yonder there, always moping by himself and staring at nothing. Why did you want to know boy? Thinking about becoming buddy buddy with him? Well I would forget it, I heard a lot about this guy and he's nothing but trouble if you ask me! I tell you what son, you might as well shoot yourself in the head because it's just the same as." All I could do was smile and back away from the old man, trying not to seem obvious. "That's great, uh-huh, thank you!" I shouted heading towards the hills.
It had been two days since the incident happened, with the music box, the scorpion, and.him. I didn't know why I couldn't stop thinking about that man, but I knew I just had to see him again. Those eyes, that face, those lips. It seemed like an eternity as I climbed that mountain sand dome, never thinking I reached the top. Finally I made it and gazed out at the endless hills of sand leading to nowhere. And for a moment, I almost forgot why I was up there.
But then I saw him, standing below me. His cloak loosely draped over his shoulders, and his silver stands clinging to his face. What was it about him that made me feel so.so.? In all my thinking, I didn't notice the ground giving way and fell forward. I tumbled down, roughly landing at the bottom. My head was spinning, and my eyes were burning from the sand. "Wha.what just happened?" I muttered trying to pull myself up. Suddenly I realized where I was, and who was standing above me. I quickly jumped to my feet, and brushed the sand from my face. "I.Uh." I began to stutter, trying to find the right words to explain why I came rolling down the hill. But he never took his gaze off of whatever was out there, nor acknowledged my presence. I was feeling very embarrassed, something I hadn't felt since I was little. "Hey!" I spoke trying to break the awkward silence. But yet again he didn't respond; his cold stare refusing to look at me. "Remember me?" I tried again. "You saved me from that scorpion, and I didn't get a chance to thank you. So I guess what I'm trying to say here is a.thanks. Oh and by the way, my name is Grencia Mars Elijah Guo Eckener. But you can just call me Gren for short, I like that better, plus it's easier to say." I smiled holding out my hand. "What's yours?" His eyes briefly met mine for a sec before he started to walk away. And for some reason, it didn't bother me. In fact, I still had that stupid grin on my face and my hand still out stretched. Then I remembered the music box he gave me, and took it from my pockets. I turned the lever and let it go, filling the air with its lovely melody. As if struck by a bullet, he stopped dead in his tracks. A sad, yet painful image reflected in his eyes once more, before he shook it off and kept on walking. "I'll see you around, comrade!" I cheerfully yelled pulling the cloak over my face. I could feel a sand storm brewing up, which was very common on Titan. And at times like these, the soldiers' head to the shelters for safekeeping, before they head back on land to fight.
All and all I was happy, because I got to see him again. Even though he didn't speak to me or I never got his name. But then I thought, there is always next time. And until then I'll be waiting.
Waiting for you.Vicious
Told you it was short, but anywho.Keep checking up for the next chapter, I hope to have it out soon!
