Blurred visions of trees rushed past Robin's eyes. In a fit of confusion and fear they began running. With no destination and no idea where they were it was a long shot, but they had to try. The voices in the background dissipated and all that was left was a lingering silence.
Gradually, they slowed down from running into a steady walk. Neither one making a sound, they carried on. Both deep in thought and not about to disrupt the other. This continued until night began creeping up.
The field was consumed by the darkness creeping up and blending into the pitch black trees on the horizon. Where exactly they were was still a mystery. The crescent moon was glowing an unusual orange color It was almost haunting.
Neither one spoke a word within the heavy darkness. The songs of the crickets were louder than either of them was used to. But somehow the sound was calming.
Robin lay on the grass, motionless, staring up at the stars. She couldn't help but smile a bit, it was just so beautiful. Funny, she thought, how in the midst of all this pain and confusion the stars shine brighter than ever. Perhaps...to show us the way...
Her thoughts were interrupted by a restless Amon, who continued to pace. She watched him curiously wondering what was going through his mind at that moment.
Robin wondered how he felt about all that had happened within the factory walls. He hadn't spoken all day. Whatever he was feeling he was definitely not about to show it, as always. Maybe it was just too much for him to swallow, or maybe he just needed to think. He probably needed time to process what had happened. Whichever one it was Robin was ready and willing to give him his space.
She herself was having trouble understanding the previous events … even this last day seemed a blur to her. On top of that she was worried about the others. Had they made it out alright?
Amon was becoming more and more restless by the second. His long jacket rustling and swaying in the wind as robin stared up into his cold slate eyes. When he turned his head he looked more like a ghost fading into the blackness. Afraid to ask what was wrong, Robin continued to stare up into the heavens. The wind blew across the field one last time sing through the darkness and carrying its tune forever. The silence seemed so heavy. As if it was looming over them. But I wasn't so strong. With a simple phrase it was broken, shattered…
"What's wrong?"
Robin flinched… wasn't she supposed to be asking that? She hadn't even noticed the tears welling up in her own eyes until that moment….
"Nothing I...I…" She stammered "I was just ...Thinking." Her voice sunk into a dull whisper.
Five words, five simple words! Why did it take so much for her to pull them out? She couldn't believe it. She had never been a talkative person, but still, it had never been so hard for her to speak before.
"You're sure?" He asked expressionlessly as ever.
Robin just nodded. She couldn't bring herself to speak again. She was afraid. She knew why it was so hard for her to speak to him, she was sure. The darkness seemed so empty to her now. Now that she knew.
It was late, but to spite all the stress and running Robin and Amon were sleepless. Just lying there listening to the songs of darkness. No point in disturbing each other, for once the silence was peaceful, not awkward or tense. It was soothing.
Robin began to sing. So softly that instead of breaking the silence she became a part of the night air and whistling wind.
Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside……
Her song faded out until it was just a memory as they both forgot ,and fell asleep.
