Promises: Bullet Holes through Butterflies
By: ParamoreXO
GWEN'S POV
Bang! BAM! Bang!
"NO!" I screamed, that trickling brook of tears now streaming down my stained cheeks like a crashing, thunderous waterfall or harsh salty river rapids. "NO, BEN!" my miserable cries were lost within my cut and scarred hands as I buried my head to cover my soaked, glistening features. Unable to stand anymore, I sank to my knees, doubling over in agony as my elbows tucked in to meet my beyond knotted stomach, shaky hands resting on my wobbly knee caps with the rest of my face. I could feel my whole body quaking as heaving gasps for air filtered in and out unevenly. It was like I didn't even care to breathe anymore...Ben could be dead.
KEVIN'S POV
In the distance, it was as if a bright electric blue meteor was falling from the twinkling night sky. My only wish was that he wasn't dead... Even though I didn't exactly believe in shooting stars, I put all my
faith into it now.
"Target hit," The officer next to me confirmed the worst, I barely heard it. I was so focused on the falling blue body to give a crap about anything else. This was high level tech we were dealing with…one blow could be a blow from death itself. As he plummeted to the earth below, I could feel my heart drop with him. Ben was like a brother to me, despite his really annoying moments that peeved me off…God, don't let him be dead…
A/N: Eh, I'm seriously losing the connection with this fic. It's pathetic, I know, but it was my first for the Ben 10 category. Anyways, I really don't know if I can keep up with this. I know how I want the ending…I just need to fill the gaps. Ughh, this story is frustrating me. Now that I look back on it…well, let's just say I feel like I've gotten way better at writing than since I began this. So it's pretty crappy in my eyes. But oh well! I'll still try!
