Starfox: Between Heaven and the Stars
Chapter 2: Pain
Author's Note: Kinda short chapter here. I needed to bridge my chapter's three and four
with chapter one so here it is, chapter two of my story. =^-^=
Decending through nothing, only the rythmic pulse of a single heart penetrating the
darkness. The living world giv'n way to a hellspawn nightmare. Sadness, emptiness, pain.
The only denizens of this eternaly black world. The heart continues to beat, though it's
rate slows as a voice pierces the void. Familiar though flat and monotone,
"This is the world you chose to live in. This is your desire." I try to respond though
my body is no longer here. The voice, echoing a thousand times then, silence. Another voice,
cold and unfeeling,
"You do not deserve their pity, wretched child." The words piercing the very core of my
existance. A thousand daggers thrust through a thousand wounds. Amidst this, a new voice.
Somewhere, calling to me. Only a faint whisper at first. Someone trying to pull me from this
black abyss. I can't help but focus on the voice, now calm and even. Calling my name.....
Fara's senses slowly began to return, though not completely. She could only make out
the vague details of the room she had been placed in. The ceiling was a dull grey. Light shone
in through the only window on the right side of the room. Two dark figures against the wall
caught her attention. They had not noticed her wake up and were still oblivious. Straining,
she could barely make out their conversation. The larger of the figures spoke first,
"Where'd you find her, she doesn't seem like your type." He joked.
"Haha, very funny. I found her on a bench in the park, poor thing would've frozen
to death if I hadn't done anything." The he replied,
"Don't we have a rule against bringing in strays?" The other asked, slightly more seriously.
"Hey, don't be like that. You would've done the same thing." He defended.
"Okay, Okay. She can stay. But if it ends up going bad, i'm gonna take it outta your ass."
The larger half-laughed as he moved toward what appeared to be a door. He paused as he swung open
the door.
"Our services have been requested. We leave in two days." he said plainly.
"How much?" The other asked.
"Five Million." He replied as he closed the door behind him. Fara squeezed her eyes closed
again,
"Five million, what the hell do they do?" She wondered to herself before her drowsiness
caught up with here and she drifted off to sleep. Moments later the one remaining in the
room sat down on the be next to the now slumbering fennic. He placed a paw on her forehead.
Satisfied, he removed his hand as he whispered to her,
"Where did you come from mystery girl?" He pulled the covers up around her, clicked the bedside lamp
off, and shut the door on his way out.........
