''Love Lost, Life Lost''


I don't know what life 
is about, nor do I, or 
will I pretend that I do. 
But what I do know is 
that a life without the 
one you love most is no 
life at all, but a 
waking death without 
ever living.  Here, at 
my feet, lies my 
heart, shattered as a 
vase of the ancients. 
And there is 
NOTHING that can 
put it back together.  

People talk of the 
darkest hour in their 
lives.  I cannot claim to 
have had a darkest 
hour, for in order to 
have a darkest hour, 
one must have a time 
of light, to which I 
owe no memory.  But I 
will not deny this is a 
dark time in my life.  
As my sadness 
grows, so does my 
solitude.  I wonder if 
I'll ever be able to love 
again as the love I have 
had once before.  

But nae, leave me my 
audience, to ponder 
you! For my audience 
here be the ghosts of 
teh past which live 
eternally.  And to thee 
I do not wish to give 
audience, for surely 
anything reminicent 
of my past is too far 
gone to be a spirit, but 
surely is none but a 
deamon.



''The Dawn of Silence,'' 
''The End of Time''


The little girl slowly 
pulled herself to her 
knees. Rage coursed 
through her body. She 
was normally calm 
and pacifist, but now 
she was not Hotaru as 
everyone knew her.  
Inside her, the rage 
grew until it took on 
an, at first surreal, 
then real form.  She 
looked up from her 
spot on the ground at 
the kid that had 
knocked her down.  

Around her, a glowing 
aura pulsed off her 
body. "Here me now," 
the girl said in a voice 
that was not her own, 
"I have lived for 
countless ages.  I am 
as old as time itself.  
You dare to defy me, 
and all I stand for! I 
will not have it!"  The 
boy backed away, 
somewhat frightened. 
"Here this! I am the 
Messiah of Silence, 
destroyer of worlds, 
and sailor of death! No 
puny human will 
stand in my way!!! 
Enough of this... BE 
GONE!" With that, a 
great energy rose 
from her.  Her body 
lifted her to her feet, 
although she never 
touched the ground on 
her way up.  her body 
floated gracefully into 
the air.  She slowly 
raised her hand and 
pointed at the boy who 
was now cowering in 
the corner. A great 
pulse of energy came 
forth and hit the boy 
with a force of power 
incomprehensible. The 
boy, laying there, 
shuddering, babbling. 

The girl fell to the 
ground and fainted. 
She did not remember 
what had happened. 
She only remembered 
that for a moment, evil 
had her in it's grip...
