chapter one - by jessica f.

The world was peaceful. Everything was in place - all was shrouded by the shadows of the night. They were all in grey and black, their hues combining, joining. The velvet sky was unadorned except for the half moon dangling in it. It wasn't right... there was something missing. The stars. Where were they? There was no sign of them. No sign ot their beauty. Their art.

Were they weeping for her? Maybe. These stars - they were her witnesses in the darkness. They knew. They know who she is, and what she lacks. They knew of the pain accompanying her every breath in the lonely night. She knew they were hiding behind those murky masses of clouds. They didn't want to see what she will do tonight.

She turned her gaze to the dull piece of metal and held it tightly in her hand. Her reflection stared back at her.

Yes. A reminder of her inheritance. Inheritance from two people who claimed to be her parents. They never understood her, or her intentions. They didn't even know their daughter.

She focused her attention once more on the sharp blade. It was slim, and light. Its cold, smooth surface was the only thing she could feet in her hands. It was perfect - in her hands was an instrument of destruction. And instument to destroy all the lies that bind her to her fate.

She studied it once more, her eyes raking over the muted luster of the knife. The edge. It was sharp and keen. She looked at it with grim determination.

She striked.

The edge came in contact with the skin on her right wrist. She observed her wound and watched the drops of blood fall on the floor.

She smiled through her pain.

The intoxicating smell of blood lingered. She breathed it. Her blood trickling from movement. Slowly. Painfully. Her blood was writing patterns on the floor.

my friend rote this but it's not very long...    

     Why does shae have to....
Even though that day has passed I still miss her. Her loving self, her bright smile sure she only had three teeth her smile still made me happy. If I cried she would always make me laugh.

The day she left was the day I realized the meaning of my life. When you lose something you really care about it more than ever. I miss her more than I love life. God took her away from me to soon. My whole life I barely knew her but she will always be apart of me. Without the thought of her I die.

She was my everything, my love and joy. Til this day I cry to myself to sleep every night. Now that she is gone I never get a goods nights sleep. Without her my life and most of my happiness is gone. And I can never get it back. Why did the lord punish me with her death.

Why did the lord take my soul along with hers. Why when I do sleep I hear her voice. Why do I see her drift farther away from me. Her death was worst than anyone can imagine.

You, you gave her cancer, you killed her you took her away from me. You stole my heart my soul, my everything. All I am is a soulless body. There is no use for me. In this world. Why did the person that had to leave have to be her why not you.

 You did this to her you killed my grandma, Millalony Chive. YOU!

I've got to be strong for her!
