The
chirping of the birds was the first thing to alert her but what
brought her out of her slight nap was the warmth of the sun on her
face. She rolled over and was greeted by the sight of green grass
that lead up the a stone wall covered with ivy. Moving to sit up her
small bare feet touched the cool ground her small toes curling to
grab the grass. Stretching a moment like a kitten uncurling from a
ball. Her tiny hands reached up for the sun above her, before she
moved to stand. Blinking she looked around her and smiled as she herd
a far off voice calling for her. Giggling she took off running in the
direction of the voice before stopping as she came to a stone wall
maze. Her white dress wrapping around her legs small hands moved to
cup her mouth as she called out, “Momma!!! Momma!!” She stood
there waiting and only moved when she herd the replay, “This way.”
Before she took off once again moving threw the maze with well
practiced ease and knowledge of the area. Coming to the opening for
the middle of the maze she smiled brightly as a child would at the
site of a blond woman standing beside a flowing three tier water
fountain. It wasn't orate in any way it was normal and plain but yet
the woman in white that was standing there made it seem grand.
Running to the woman the little girl threw her arms up wards and
outwards the woman laughed at the little girl but still bent down to
pick up the little girl and spin her around. Once the little girls
feet touched the ground again the woman smiled and lightly mumbled
out, “lets go find your father little one.” But as the little
girl looked up at her mother the sky which was clear and blue
suddenly had dark clouds and lightning filled it and the woman who
was standing there was now missing. The little girl looked around her
as her eyes looked upon everything things were changing. The ivy
vines and grass were now ash the soft ground was now cracking the
walls were crumbling. The flowing water was dried up and the fountain
was spiting and crumpling. Looking down at her feet they were no
longer the size of a child’s but that of an adults the once white
dress she had worn now red. Then as she watched the ground under her
feet disappeared, a scream tore from her lips as she fell into the
blackness.
Viviane
woke with a start chest heaving as she looked around her eyes settled
on the white haired man beside her. Closing her eyes she took a few
deep slow breaths to calm her self before laying back down and
snuggling up to the man she once again closed her eyes and settled
back down to sleep. Once again to dream of the woman in white and her
last day in light...
