Mutant Moon

[nokotchi]

Amaya finally reached the forest as tears streamed down her cheeks. Memories burned into her mind. She slowed down and started singing a song that her mother always sang to her when she was little, "In the darkness, the dragon wakes..... The dragon awakens.... To a heart that is numbed with cold.. The dragon takes. With you at my side the dragon sleeps... On dragon wings.. Your dreams will leap"

 

[YellowJedi]

Vaiz heard singing, and walked to the sound. Putting hos hands in his back pockets, he walked to the sound, curious who else was there.

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya started crying as she continued the song, " Lalalalalalala.... Your wishes can bring forth a... Destructive future.... Lalalalalalala... Or you can bring salvation..." Amaya sat down, her back against the tree. She brought her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. She then looked up at all of the stars.... Wondering... Why he had killed her mother..

 

[YellowJedi]

Vaiz then saw the girl from before, crying and singing. "It's you...the girl from before." he said softly, walking over.

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya looked over at the boy, trying to hide her emotions like always. She slumped over and started wiping away her tears. "Yeah......" she whispered. She trembled a little when she tried so hard to stop the tears. She just couldn't hold them back.

 

[YellowJedi]

"You...you okay?" Vaiz asked, sitting next to her.

 

[nokotchi]

"Honestly.....No, not at all...." Amaya leaned on his shoulder, hoping he wouldn't mind.

 

[YellowJedi]

"What happened?" Vaiz asked her softly, trying to comfort her.

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya began,"When I was around 10..... My father... He went insane. He set fire to the house, and murdered my mother...... He's still out there somewhere... Whenever I try to s-sleep.... I get a horrible nightmare...... Of what h-happened.." Amaya didn't try to hide her tears anymore, she let it all out.

 

[YellowJedi]

Vaiz looked down, not knowing what to say. "You want him dead, don't you?"

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya looked at him,"That's only partly true... My memories just........ Haunt me....So badly.. I'll never get free... never."

 

[YellowJedi]

Vaiz looked down. "Same...my memories haunt me too. I killed many people in my past life, and now I can't get over it."

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya let out a large sigh, "I see..... We both have sorrowful pasts...... You know, you're the first person... Who's ever cared to listen..... Thank you......"

 

[YellowJedi]

"Yeah, no problem. You're thef irst person I've met who I... who I've talked to without killing..." he sighed, looking down.

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya placed her hand on his and said, "It's okay, I promise. The past is the past. I admit, even I need to let go of it..."

 

[YellowJedi]

"You don't get it...how many people I've killed, and these don't help;, they remind me how evil I was!!!" Vaiz told her, pointing to his horns.

 

[nokotchi]

Amaya flinched a little and looked up at his horns. She didn't have anything to say, so she looked down at the ground. After a few moments she moved her hand away from his and said,"Murder is forgivable, But the most important thing is that you need to forgive yourself...."

 

[' A k i]

Blair stopped in her track and averted her head away from Ze. "Maybe...if it's ok with you that is but could I stay with you? I don't want to go back to being alone again!"

 

[YellowJedi]

Vaiz just nodded. "I don't know how to forgive myself, that's the problem."

Ze smiled. "Of course you can stay, honestly I wanted you to stay."

 

[nokotchi]

'I-i could help you... Uh, but only if you want!" Amaya sighed realizing how stupid she must've sounded.
