The Dancer's Children

The Dancer's Children

0 INK

"I know what life feels like. Like your caught in a moment with no end in sight. Like you're stumbling through darkness, feeling for a light." -Allie Farris, The Dancer.

438 readers have visited The Dancer's Children since Midnight's Work created it.

Introduction

"City Streetlights are shining, and some flicker on, while the weight of the world comes crashing down. On the sidewalk he sits while the band starts to play, in the air of the night, it smells like rain. Then the man starts to dance, his clothes tattered and torn, wielding movements of grace, his face is worn."
-Allie Farris, The Dancer


There was once a famed dancer. He lived in England, and many coveted his movements of grace and poise. One day he came home to find his wife crying. He asked her what was wrong and she told him. Their 5 children, had been taken. The man tried to console his wife, but that night, the woman killed herself.

Feeling like his life no longer had purpose, the man fled to America. There he was homeless, drunk most of the time. And the legend of the Great Dancer faded away in the wind.

It was here that he died, sitting alone on a sidewalk.

But it turns out that this man had been a noble in England, unknown to himself, and his family. His children, taken from their lives, stick together and try to find out who they really are. But there are those who covet the fame and the riches that are due to these children, and will do anything to get rid of them. There are few that they can trust. But when a group of 5 others come to help them regain what was lost, they grow feelings towards one another, but the five children try to push them away as they have no idea who they can trust.

Mollie rubbed her eyes after falling asleep under a tree, for another night in a row. She hated being awoken so early. The sun hadn't even come up all the way yet, but the sky was a blue-ish purple. She blinked a few times, and pulled some water out of her backpack. She took a big gulp.

"Rise and shine!"

Lena, who'd slept in the tree, now jolted up, hitting her head on a branch, then falling to the ground. She stood up quickly. "I'm up!"

Kuro was once again having his usual nightmares. They were being chased again.
Dont look back, just keep running... Those words echoed in his head. He wasnt sure what it was. He couldnt see, but he could hear it. All he was able to make out was the figures... people... He could hear screaming, and maybe his own heart beating.

"Rise and Shine!"

Kuro sat up from under the tree, his eyes wide open. For some reason, he was panting, as if he had been running a hundered miles. He stared at the ground blankly before looking up at his two sisters. He forced on a smile, "Good morning." he said weakly as he leaned his back against the tree.

Mollie pulled her hair up into a loose ponytail, closing her eyes. She pulled the sleeves of her leather jacket up to her elbows, opening her eyes again. Another day again… She thought to herself. More wandering. She hated walking. I mean, being one of the youngest, was tougher then she thought. She missed her parents. She missed her life.

Ever since they had been taken, Mollie's usual disposition had changed. She was more off a worry-wort, more concerned for her life and her brother and sister. All she cared about was them. She didn't mind her own life; as long as Kuro and Lena made it out of this mess.
