"The only person you should be better than is who you where yesterday"
The sun was setting, and darkness washed over the town like a blanket. The normally hushed city was bustling with townspeople running two and fro, searching for somethingā¦someoneā¦.A petite girl with long lavender hair hid in the growing shadows. The sound of hounds howling in the distance made her bright blue eyes widen in fear. They were coming for her and she didnāt even know what she had done wrongā¦She couldnāt remember anything passed this morning when she woke up on the apex of Elizabeth street and Belladonna street.
She heard movement behind her and she panicked. Suddenly arms where around her, holding her and keeping her from moving.
āI got the little bitch!ā The man holding her yelled has he yanked her hair to keep her under the control. She felt fear bolt through her and she struggled, only to have pain rip though her head as he yanked on her hair again. She screamed and kicked only to be thrown to the ground in the center of the crowd.
She didnāt even have time to defend herself before he towns people started raining blows down on her. She did what she could to cover her head but found it did very little to protect her. She felt her bones breaking and cried out in pain, but to no avail. They were not going to stop until she was dead.
āPleaseā¦ā She whispered and coughed up blood as she looked up. She saw a painting in the window to her left of a Chinese dragon and reached out to it. She felt power well within her, but she didnāt understand it. Suddenly the drawing came to life. It attacked the townās people around her and scattered them off, harm clear in its intentions. She didnāt want any more violenceā¦.she just wanted to be at peace. As if the dragon understood it nuzzled her then picked her up off the ground.
And then darkness over took her.
She was fallingā¦falling fast and hard. She opened her eyes and realized her dragon was disintegrating, like burning paper. The ground was closing in, and then she was hitting it, hard. She felt more bones shatter and felt mild surprise that she even had any more bones to break. She lost consciousness again, but only for a few more minutes. She heard fighting not far from her and hoped she had made enough noise to have them see her.
