A/N: This is is possably the shortest chapter I've ever had to write, but it's also the most painful. You'll see why in a minute.
Now read on!
Aura looked up at the sky with her deep black eyes for the hundredth time that day. It was blue and white with long, black lines that crisscrossed each other. Just behind these lines in the blue was a great big red spear that lit the entire world in its warm glow.
Aura sighed at this familiar sight and started to pace again.
That's all that she really did, pace. She could explore of coarse, but she already knew just about every nook and cranny of this world. She could climb, but that lost its luster many orbs ago.
There were so many things that she could do, but she had done all of them. She did them over and over again until they turned into dull nothings. Nothing was new. Nothing changed. It was always the same old thing day after day. Everything was so dull… Except for one little thing…
Aura looked up again, but not at the sky. She looked instead at the tall brown and green thing that she was circling. On the hard brown skin of the thing were strange carvings. The first one was two diagonal lines that leaned towards each other until the touched at the top. About half way down was a horizontal line that ran between them. Another one had two strait lines that were connected by a third. Then there were the lines that crossed each other. And so many more.
Very few tall brown things in the center of the world had these strange markings. On the edge of the world however, many of them were marked. Aura has seen them from afar, but she can't get too close to them. There is some magic around the edge of the world that stops her from getting too close.
When ever she tries to go to the edge the magic stops her. It makes here feel weird, her black hair stands up and if she gets too close, it makes her whole body tingle. It terrifies her and because of the magic she has never seen the edge of the world.
Aura looked up at the sky one last time and watched as the blue turned into red and the red orb started to slowly disappear over the edge. Eventually the big orb was gone and the lines disappeared into the now-black sky.
Now everything was dark except for the many small orbs that decorated the sky. In among these tiny orbs was one giant half orb. Every time it came out it looked different. Growing and shrinking with each passing. Every now and then it would become a whole orb and light up the sky and other times it would go away completely, making the darkness even darker that usual.
Aura stopped pacing and made her way into the woods. When the sky was blocked out by the green ovals that lived at the top of the brown skinned creatures she stopped. She then proceeded to slump her back against the rough brown skinned creature and slide down to a sitting position. There, she fell asleep.
