Chapter Twenty-seven: Farewell Marry and Picario quickly leapt to opposite sides as the Diablo raised his foot and tried smashing it down on them. A powerful gust of wind from the force of his stomp alone blew against Marry and Picario hard, kicking up dust in their eyes. The two squinted and then simultaneously took high to the sky. As they gained height the Diablo swung his fist at Picario. Picario barley managed to tel...

Draco stood on far end of the boat looking ahead to see if he could see Aeon Toris from afar. It was very early and the sun was still set, but Draco was always an early riser. He was a very young man, six years old, with short raven black hair that ran straight. He and his father were on a boat taking them from Saeyune to Aeon Toris and he was too young to remember his first visit there, so now as they were getting closer...

I was hopeful for a lovely day, But you just can't give me the time.I'm so miserable in so many ways,Loving you is really a crime.A simple hello would be nice,Ask me how I'm doing.Your mood is as cold as ice,Your behavior is not even amusing. You never have anything to say,I find you an absolute bore.You act like your miles away,I dream of walking out the door.I fantasize about running far away,To a house by the sea.The s...

It's a happy time of the year, I know your busy at your job.For me there's lots of tears,You act like a complete snob.You shut down and run out of here,Do you even care how I feel?You're like a magician and disappear,For me it's an emotional ordeal.I say it doesn't bother me,What am I supposed to say?Your actions hurt to some degree,These are the days, I want to runaway.I'm your loving and caring wife,You're so damn moody...

If the moment arrives where our hands unclasp, I would rather see you leave without a word, to never once glance back at the embers covering me as you exit. I would memorize everything,dissect every syllable and pause when your eyes could no longer meet where mine have always remained. Looking for possible codes and clues,buried like poisoned roots spreading. Turning every hallway in the home we madeinto haunted corridors...

I'll hear you calling out to me no matter where I am, the voice that can pass through walls, flicker among the candle's glowing wick before spreading deep below to crack through winter's ice. Marking the places we've imprinted entire lives on, the lived before and after one another, energies that are the pieces we gave of ourselves, memory's residues mingling to make our shared worlds. The places far beneath that are hold...

You can be inked on my skin, marked on my heart,tattoos and unseen etchings with our names,all our words said in the other's ear Like a secret that knew precisely where to tear open the other, whispers traveling along breezes I can feel you in, the currents coursing through this vessel. Whether I become transparent to you in time, or become like towering walls covered in dark paints and smoke to hide how fragile I can be,...

I stand in the dark, cold, still night, watching, waiting, listening hidden from view. A soft breeze blows, carrying the voices and laughter of people walking by my hidden refuge. Little do they know I am here every night protected and warm. The vent of steam from the laundry floods my area. I create a fresh hovel every night. The cardboard and packing material make a protective place that is comfortable, warm and quiet....

Sometimes we laugh and everything is great, Other times it's silence and moods.It's a crap shoot to try to relate,I don't ever want to intrude.I then feel like it's some how my fault,You don't want to talk to me.You put your feelings into a vault,I just want to run and be free.I sit here and wonder are you okay,I smile and give you a kiss.Everything is okay today,We're back to loving bliss.The sun is not shining today; no...

If silence speaks volumes then it doesn't matterhow much oxygen is expelled from my lungs for you,if one breath can strip you to the boneand shake each monster you've molded my face to. Whatever you've shaped us into,I'll be in the dark and would rather keepthe moments where I looked intothe bare essence of someone,someone who could return such a rare gaze,and never flee from what we could build together. I would rather r...

I sit here and wonder what mood you'll be in today, It's exhausting trying to figure it out.Will it be a happy day? Or will it be gray?I try to be happy and not pout.I always feel so tense and always on defense,I give all myself to you.Of course, this is just my two cents,There is always two sides, but this is my view.A relationship that blossoms and grows,I love you with all my heart.Is this enough? I don't know,Sometime...

Chapter Sixteen: Suspicions Sabrina flinched in fear as the sword came down at her, but instead of cutting her down the blade sliced through her shackles. The rider then pulled back his hood and sheathed his sword. “Thomas!” Sabrina rejoiced. Thomas held out his hand saying, “Hurry now hop on; the both of you. We don’t have much time until they get here.” Sabrina took Thomas,’ hand and he swiftly pulled her up onto the ho...

Chapter Fifteen: Marry Cromwell “Sabrina Cromwell, you stand accused of practicing witchcraft in broad daylight and in front of the general public, how do you plead?” Sabrina stood in front of the court with her head held high. She knew all of the jury; they were her neighbors, her friends. She had lived in Salem all her life and was a respected member of the community, and one of its only herbalists. But none of that mat...

I think I've been running away, Not dealing with what I need to.Trying to fill the emptiness each day,Reaching out to something new.It felt like a safe place for a while,But now I'm not too sure.It used to make me happy and smile,I believe I've hit a major detour.Instead of fixing issues in my life,I just made more problems.Always fighting with lots of strife,I think it may have been just boredom.Running away for many hou...

Chapter Thirteen: Memories of Family Ethan waited until all of the bodies had disappeared from the cave before moving on. He wandered around the caverns for hours, maybe even days before finally finding a portal out of them. The portal took Ethan to a desolate swamp with patches of land and muddy water around it all. There was a light mist all around and the only other life Ethan could see was the occasional dark decaying...
