A/N: Hey guys! So I was wondering, did you want me to write little author's notes at the beginning and end of the chapters?
Write reviews or PM me to let me know! Thanks for all your support!
Lily had gone into shock. She had been seventeen for eighty years. How had so much time passed in what seemed like hours?
She was shocked that she would never age, shocked that the time had disappeared, and shocked that she would never see her little Eve again.
She sat there, on that glacier, churning this over and over in her mind.
She sat there throughout the rest of the afternoon.
She sat there when the sun left the sky, refusing to give in to her desire to admire it's beauty.
She sat there well into the night, in silence.
By this time, she had gotten over her shock. Her emotions had begun to boil up inside her. Contorting her face with anger and twisting it in pain.
She did not want to cry. She wanted to be strong for Eve. But she couldn't hold it in forever. She had reached her limit and she was about to explode.
And so, as the moon rose higher into the sky, she stood from the tight ball she had been sitting in. She ignored the pain that branched all over her body.
She glared at the moon, her eyes like blue flames. They burned with rage and hurt.
And then, she opened her mouth and screamed at the moon. She screamed at it to give Eve back. She screamed at it to answer her questions.
She turned to the direction the forest was in and screamed with all her might. S
he wasn't screaming at anybody in particular and she wasn't saying anything either.
She just made a horrific noise that could make even the scariest monsters shrink away in fear.
She screamed and screamed and screamed until she could manage no more than a coarse whisper.
She was unable to scream any longer because she was no longer angry. Lily's throat burned as if someone had stuck a hot branding iron down it.
So she didn't make anymore noise. Instead, she let silent tears fall from her eyes, freezing against her icy skin. She couldn't manage a sob, so they just fell in streams.
They were unwelcome tears. Sad tears that she cried for Eve. Lily ran out of tears when the sun finally rose, painting the sky pink and orange - the palette of dawn.
She decided that the moon wasn't going to bring her beloved sister back. He wasn't going to help her.
And he sure as hell wasn't going to answer her desperate questions. She rose from the ground, aching everywhere and exhausted.
As the last of the pink left the sky, she looked around. The forest seemed so quiet now. So empty. And Lily knew why.
Eve wasn't there and that meant she was completely and utterly alone.
