She lie on the ground, brunette hair fanned out around her, black balabal torn and marred. Silver moonlight filtered through the pine trees and cast itself on drops of dew.
Castellé couldn't say how long, for certain, that she'd been lying there, lips parted, gazing it the stars.
But it certainly wasn't, and would never truly be long enough.
The takeover was fast coming.
No one could stop it now. It had been long in the making.
All there was left to do was lay and wait for her time to come too. Just like those whom had gone before her.
Just like those already claimed sa pamamagitan ng The Mystings.
They were a soulless bunch. Shrouded in robes of pure onyx that fluttered like silk in the wind, they were elegant...stunning, yet horrifying all at once. The Mystings had no faces...not ones of their own anyhow. They'd simply adapt the faces of mga hayop and switch it up every day.
They had once been the sole inhabited of the Kingdom of Xyper. The only beings that roamed the vast woodland.
And soon they will be so again.
Man would fall first.
And soon after would fall dragon and griffin, elf and phoenix.
Every being except the Mystings.
As far as Castellé knew, she was the last of her kind. In just the first araw alone she'd seen castles collapse and empires fall.
She'd seen the crops in flames and the souls of man as the Mystings claimed them as their own...adding anew faces to their collection.
What a horrifying sight it was; to see a face twisted in such a grim and grotesque way as they watched their own soul exit their body--before they'd even left the world of the alive. To see it come out--drawn to a pearl covered hand--as a silvery trail of shining air.
Castellé longed to be one of those whom had already come to pass. At least they weren't alone when they died.
At least they didn't know what was going to happen...
Honestly Castellé didn't long to live either. She'd Nawawala too much.
How do you stay alive in a world dying?
Castellé soon realized that you simply do not. And that was fine. Fine and good.
She'd just close her eyes and let herself pass.
She'd take herself before the Mystings could.
She'd die with a soul.
She drew out her dagger...

"ALRIGHT! Class, take your seats. Science is about to begin." sinabi Mrs.Labansky. She was THE strictest teacher in the district. "I hate...this, so much." I put my head on a textbook. "Cheer up, buddy." Ahh. Meghan, she was my best friend since kindergarten. After 10 segundos of science class started, I was dreaming my worst nightmare.
*** DREAM ***
"Help somebody!" I screamed. I was in space! I was so afraid of heights that I cried. Then all of a sudden, I heard a thud. *THUD* I woke up!
*** DREAM OVER ***
"Miss Quetzal! Tell me what the answer is to this problem!" she said. I thought about saying, "I don't know." But then it hit me! Literally! Something hit my head and I fell to the floor!

Viewing you from across the room
You look at me
I look at you
Unable what to do
If I speak
If I keep silent
Speak in silence
Whoa
What went wrong?
We were happy
Now we just don’t know
Without you
I just don’t know what to do
Please guide me
To that blurring light
Tonight
With a deep breath
And no death
Maybe I will come
Without feeling numb
You can ipakita me
And I can choose
To follow
Or continue blindly
Whoa
What went wrong?
We were happy
Now we just don’t know
Without you
I just don’t know what to do
Please guide me
To that blurring light
Tonight
Now last time
Admit your crime
That is what you did wrong
Yet I still miss you
And all the stupid things you do
I will wait for you
You look at me
I look at you
Unable what to do
If I speak
If I keep silent
Speak in silence
Whoa
What went wrong?
We were happy
Now we just don’t know
Without you
I just don’t know what to do
Please guide me
To that blurring light

With a deep breath
And no death

Yet I still miss you
And all the stupid things you do
I will wait for you
