Summary: Mornie utĂșlie. Believe and you will find a way. Mornie alantie. A promise lives within you now. He went on a mission never to return again. Or so they said.
Necroblade: Maybe he is, may be he isn't. That would be telling, now wouldn't it? Don't worry, you'll know soon enough.
Jenny: Glad you reviewed, I'm addicted to reviews. I really don't mind you using 'keep writing' in your every review, my reviews mostly say; 'Love it. Update soon.'.
Arwennicole: Like I told Necroblade, that would be telling and undermine the whole point of the story.
AbareKiller: Sure, I'll write more soon. I've got chapters waiting to be published.
TF Princess: Glad you liked it. Here's more.
Smallvilefanfreak7: You're not sure and I'm not telling, but you'll find out soon enough, promise.
What Was Lost
Chapter 1
Outside, the sun was shining brightly. The temperature of the air was rising, again. After a long winter, the spring had arrived. Finally. The trees were still bare, though, but she didn't doubt it would be long before their leaves returned. The song of a bird carried into the room through the open window, along with the fresh air and scents belonging to spring only. How she wished she could be out there and be part of the awakening world.
"Aurora, pay attention." The teacher's voice rang through the classroom, snapping her out of her daze.
"Yes, ma'am." She replied, looking back at the book in front of her.
History. It never quite caught her attention. She had learned a long time ago, you can't change the past and living in the past wasn't advisable either. Neither was living in dreams and she had started living for the day, no, more like living for the moment, never making promises for the future, for you never know when it's going to end and who might be hurt by your broken promise, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Aurora, this is your last warning. Pay attention now or have detention later."
Detention? She couldn't get detention. She needed to pick her brother up from school. Her mother had to work today, so it was up to her to baby-sit her brother and make dinner.
Almost eleven years ago this life had started. Almost eleven years ago since the terrible news and a broken promise had changed her life forever. Almost eleven years since the mission that took him away from them again. A mission they later found out, he would never come back from.
She looked up to see her teacher look at her and open her mouth. Just then the bell rang, announcing the end of class. She quickly dumped her books in her bag and hurried out of the room, but not before hearing her teacher's call.
"You were lucky this time, Aurora."
She weaved her way through the crowd of students in the main hall. Taking a left turn she ended up in a much quieter corridor. Music was not a subject many people took and since this corridor only held the classrooms for that subject, it was mostly deserted here.
She liked that peace. It enabled her to escape into her own world for a while. Music did too, which was why she had chosen to take it.
She had a free period right now and should be getting late lunch with her other classmates, but next week, her school was holding a performance night of all music classes and she wanted to practise, since she hardly had any time to do it at home.
It didn't take her long to find an empty classroom and she sat down behind the grand piano. Taking her music out of her bag, she started to play.
(e-mail me for the chapter with the lyrics in it)Applauding from the doorway snapped her back into the real world. She turned her head and blushed when she saw who was standing in the door opening.
A/N: Hope you liked it. Review.
