Pain
WARNING!! SAD SCENE AND LUKA AHEAD!!!
Alois POV
In the carriage, (y/n) spent most of her time gazing up, into the clouds and through it seemed. Her face had cleared up a lot from earlier, it had now returned to its beautiful natural (s/c) shade, her lapis eyes were no longer red and puffy and her tears had long since dried up. Her long, (h/c) hair was tied in a plait that twirled and twisted over her left right shoulder and she smiled up at a flock of birds and her silky smooth tail steadily paced itself into a sway. Her ears pricked up and twitched at the many sounds. I wonder what she is thinking about...
Your POV
Have you ever noticed how intriguing the sky can be? How the white clouds peacefully float along there road and how the many birds sing and swim through the vast blueness? I have, whenever I wasn't to eat, when I was cold, sick, scared or injured, I would curl up and stare at the sky. It gave me hope just as the moon gave me strength. And I loved it. I could speak to the stars as they were my friends, I could speak to the moon, it was my power, and I could speak to the sun for it was my encouragement. The voice that said, "you will make it, you can do it, you may feed today and if not, tomorrow, all you have to do is stay strong and believe you can!" At some times, those words were the only thing to keep me going, to make me will myself to survive because, in the end, that's all we can do.. to survive...
*********
We stopped on a crumbly dirt road next to a land of unknown adventures just waiting to be discovered! The trees were a lush green colour and they towered far above my head! The grass was speckled with dew and I could hear a babbling brook up ahead!
"Master! This place is simply beautiful! And, why, it even smells of fresh pine needles! How lucky you are!" I gasped dreamily gazing into the shadows of the woods.
"You know what! Master sounds ever so boring! Today shall be fun and so you will call me by my name!" He giggled at my reaction, "well? Shall we go and have a picnic then? Ole!" He laughed, dancing to the trees.
I rushed after him, carrying the picnic basket and my plait flew behind me.
"Slow down! Alois!" I called.
"You know you can easily keep up! I'm taking you to my favorite spot. That is to be where we shall have our picnic!" He called back, still twirling and jumping. I laughed, it was pretty cute when he was trying to be sweet!
*******
We soon arrived at the 'best spot in the woods' and I sat in the grass.
"(Y/n) over here!"
I groaned as I lifted the basket and walked to where Alois was sat. When I arrived, he lay down in the blue petals on the floor.
"Bluebells." I muttered.
"Do you not like bluebells?" The boy asked.
"They're my favorite flower! Of course I love them!" I replied happily.
"Really? They're mine too!" He smiled back. He then picked one of the immaculate flowers and intertwined it in my hair.
"Here! It suits you!" He giggled. And I blushed, since when was Alois Trancy sweet?
Maybe he was all along, but I was too blind to see it. That was always my problem, judge before justice was what my brother had called it when I was but a cub.
Although, everyone else seems to hate him as I once did...
Was he misunderstood or is he playing nice? I couldn't tell.
I turned my head from the trees to Alois, he was gently holding a sky blue butterfly. "Your beautiful. You remind me of (y/n). Gorgeous, fast, smart and free spirited. I like that. If you stay, with me, I promise to take care of you. I will." I heard him whisper to the sky jewel. He went to stroke a wing and it flew away. "No, don't." He whispered to it as it flew away. I was going to say something but...
Meew! I heard a weak meowing sound and I turned to see Arowa, my precious Arowa! Rugged and dirty, bloodshot and weak, he padded over to me. His round eyes were only half open. When he had reached me (I would of ran to him but I was frozen to the spot at the sight of my poor cub like that!) he collapsed into my arms. I instantly started crying, his fur was wet, sticky in some places. I took a hand away to see it coated with dark red patches, the colour of blood mixed with dirt.
"Arowa, my baby boy! What are you doing out here?" I whispered through my tears as I hugged the cub. He mewled and a small, black box about half the size of my hand, dropped into the bluebells below. I stroked his once jaguar patterned fur but now brown and golden mess. My eyes filled with guilty, horrified and great full tears.
"You did it for me, to return my box? You stupid kitten! But thank you. So. Much. My baby, my Arowa..." I told/asked him and I cradled him in my arms, letting his legs rest as my salty tears rained onto his furry cheek.
It was when his heavy breathing slowed and sounded strained.
"NO! AROWA! STAY WITH ME! IM SORRY! IM SORRY!" I screamed at him, "I'm sorry.." my voice lowered to a whisper, "please, don't leave me, your all I have. All I love. I need you, my baby. Don't go! DONT LEAVE ME ALONE!" I cried over my poor cub, my best friend, my family, my boy. I held his soft, sticky fur to my face as I cried. He had been there for me for over 3 millenniums (Special type that aged exceedingly slowly) and now, he was just gone..
Alois POV
I froze where I sat.
The second she cried those 6 words 'don't go!! DONT LEAVE ME ALONE!!' I was taken back to that day in my old village. That day, Luka left me..
I was ran to where Luna lay, in the moonlight, old brown clothes covered me. I sat by his motionless body, "There you are! I was calling you!" I smiled, lifting him onto my lap. I turned his pale face where he was, cold, unmoving, un blinking, not breathing. I waved my hand over his precious face, "what's wrong with you, wake up!"
*Flashback flash*
"No! DONT LEAVE ME ALONE!! PLEASE DONT!!" I shouted. My brother, my Luka, dead. I couldn't take it. I couldn't move, even when I was taken and loaded into the cart to the old man.
That kind of pain, it stays with you forever, doesn't leave, doesn't heal. It changed me but I hope with all my heart -the same way I loved Luka and the way she loved her kitten- that it doesn't ruin her as it did me. She is already perfect! And I won't let anything spoil her beauty! 'I swear it to you (y/n) on my life I swear it!'
How do you like this one? Is it long enough? I hope so! I want to make you guys happy to read my story! Love ya xxx
