|◈Lonely◈|


     The blunette tucks away the letters into the drawer of the desk, and ambles over to her bed, plopping down atop of the comforter. Her lips quiver as she brings her palms to her face, beginning to cry again. She hadn't asked to be born with an anomalous power. She only wanted friends. One friend..one friend was all she'd need.

     After a few hours, a heavy rain begins to pelt at her windows, dripping onto the pavement outside. Depressed, she grabs her coat from her closet, and slides her boots onto her feet, tucking in her pajama bottoms. Heading toward the front door, she grips onto her umbrella and exits from the house, locking the door. Strolling down the walkway, she raises her umbrella above her head, heading in the direction of the town cemetery.

     A few minutes of walking, she ends up at the polished gates of the burial ground. A soft grin spreads across her lips as she passes by each and every grave, running her fingers across the top of the tombstones. Seconds later, the sound of crumbling stone reasonates throughout the graveyard. With loud groans, beings rise from the graves, dusting off their temporary bodies.

     "Juvia!" Meredy, a young girl who died in a car accident, ran up to her and flung her frail arms around her.

     "Hello, Meredy." She responds, and waves to the rest of the spirits with a soft smile.

     Yes. It was her curse. Reviving the dead. With everything she touched, it would come alive.

     "WAAAAAAIIIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!" A loud shriek emanates from the far corner of the grounds. Juvia looks up with curiosity.

     "Has anyone seen my body!?" Erza, a young woman who died after being sentenced to decapitation, spoke.

     "Here it is, honey." Her husband, Jellal, who committed suicide after her death, retrieves her head, and fixes it atop of her neck.

     "Thank you, dear." She nods and smiles slightly.

     "Why are you here Juvia? To see Mama again?" Meredy tiled her small head, her cherry locks swaying along with her movements.

     "..Yes, is she here?" Juvia inquires and everyone goes still.
