Yet another one of my miserable fics. this is a songfic, but a DIFFERENT one. Every chapter, I'll have a new song! I must be sad to memorize that many lyrics...
Being Alone, But Not Forgotten
Chapter One: Wind's Nocturne
Disclaimer: I do not own SOA characters, or the song.
Aika knelt down beside the grave of one of her best friends. She looked up at the red moon.
Wishing on a dream that seems far off,
Hoping, it will come today.
Vyse looked over her shoulder at Fina's grave. She had given her life to help defend Arcadia. Ramirez' sword had too much power, and she had too weak of a defense.
Into the starlit night,
Foolish dreamers turn their gaze,
Waiting on a shooting star.
Gilder walked by, seeing the two grieve, and stopped.
"Hey guys? It's been four years. I've never seen you guys happy since."
But,
What if that star is not to come?
Will their dreams fade to nothing?
Aika coughed. She stood up.
"I'm quite alright, thanks." She headed to the tavern for a loqua.
Vyse stood, too, and turned to Gilder. "She led us on an adventure that made us famous. She became friends with us, and she didn't want to go back home." He headed to the pond, where a relief of Fina was carved into the rock.
When the horizon darkens most,
We all need to believe there is hope.
A star glinted, Vyse looked up at it. He could barely see the constellation of Fina Aika had found after that hard battle. He looked north of it and saw Cupil's. Cupil still remained among them, though spent most of his time in a puddle around her grave.
Is an angel watching closely over me?
Can there be a guiding light I've yet to see?
Cupil cried. "Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."
Gilder bent down and patted it. "Honestly, can't everyone at least get happier?"
"Cuuuuuuuuu. Cu?" Was all his reply. It slowly reemerged as a floating ccreature and floated around his head.
"That's better."
I know my heart should guide me but
There's a hole within my soul.
Vyse sat, looking at the stars for a long time. Aika had long before gone to sleep, followed by Gilder and Cupil. He sighed. They were the only ones left on Crescent Isle, while all the others helped the new Emperor and Empress Enrique and Moegi rebuild Valua.
What will fill this emptiness inside of me?
Am I to be satisfied without knowing?
Vyse picked up a stick and doodled in the dirt. He drew Fina and Cupil, how they looked back then. He drew her smile and rubbed it out, standing up. He walked back to his room, pausing before opening the door. He looked at her constellation again.
I wish then for for a chance to see
Now all I need (Desperately).
Is my star to come?
