Under a Glass Moon

Part Three: Helpless: Nataku

"Outside the soundness of your mind

Bathing your soul in silver tears

Beneath the blackened summer sky

Praying for time to disappear"

It's time.

Hundreds, nay thousands, gather at my side,

presence mere routine. I am good as alone.

The dark tower looms before me,

radiating hate and death, insatiable hunger for blood;

a diseased tumor, corrupting, waves of illness

suffocating me. The sight chills my heart, strikes fear in my soul.

I am terrified

of omens, of portents, of things to come.

But Destiny will not be bowed even by a god.

I cannot help but push through.

Author's Note: This is a five-part fic. I've actually finished part four already but I need to edit it. I want this to be good. So far, my reviewers like it, so I haven't failed yet.

Mrs. Rusalki: Thanks, thanks so much for the continued support. It means so much to me. ^_^ I miss you!!!

I hope you all enjoyed reading. I would appreciate it very much if you review. If not, thanks for reading. AND I'M STILL PLUGGING!! Read Chapter 1 of my fic Fatal Bonds for more Shien/Nataku!!! ^_^

love,
