shortcake thr/eat Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Just now, Spark of Hope said: Her mother smiled. "It was a simple mistake. It happens to everyone. You don't need to be sorry about it. This is how you learn to do better next time." Quote Lundyn, her mother, and her grandmother had them. her Grandmother passed when Lundyn was 7, so three years before she came to the clinic. Her dad had the colored eye things and the spacial controlling thing (if you've seen the newest Shazam movie, it's kind of like the thing with the girl that that the curly-haired boy likes) but nothing involving that has happened yet. the lights thing that happened a while back is just a Lundyn thing, and it usually happens when she's under a lot of stress, and mainly when she remembers painful memories/stuff with her parents. I'm planning on having some flickering lights in the inn in a little bit. Lundyn smiles and hugs her mother. "I'm gonna be the best flyer when I grow up." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She spread her wings and flapped yards up into the air in one beat, leaving a few feathers behind. From a distance away, Lundyn's father and uncle walk up to the scene. Lundyn's father was a well-built man, able to intimidate people even without the powers his bloodline granted. His younger brother, known only as Uncle to Lundyn, had a slimmer frame, yet still packed almost as much muscle as her father. His dexterity and survival skills made him invaluable to living away from everyone else, despite his lack of powers. "Let's get you home and bundle you up," her father said, placing her on his shoulders. He placed a hand on Uncle's shoulder to ferry them both home, and Lundyn could have sworn Uncle flinched. What was there to worry about, though? Father was simply taking them home; to their safe place. Quote Alright, do we want to make this a surreal dream experience or an accurate history? Cause I think it'd be cool if the transportation just abruptly cut to Lundyn being burned and her parents being gone. If not, on with the story!

Quote *cracks knuckles* *turns on mario accent* HeRe wE Go! As the field faded away, so did her parents. Panic rose up in Lundyn's throat as she lost her sources of stability, love, and hope. Pain began to flare everywhere; a burning sensation crept over every limb and digit. A sharp pain suddenly spiked in her back, and she gasped. Turning around, she saw Uncle, face malevolent and intense, smiling at the fire that engulfed them both. He yanked his arm away from her back, and in his hand was a knife that dripped blood. In anguish, she screamed. Her scream released a perfect blaze from her lips, one that had arrived to consume all. The ghosts of her parents crumbled to ash, Uncle quickly disintegrated, and the fire completed even Lundyn's consumption, rushing up her body towards her head - Lundyn woke up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote YOOOO WHAT THATS INSANE HOW DO YOU WORD SO WELL Lundyn's scream from her sleep echoed into the real world as she woke up. It was filled with pain and anger, but nowhere to direct it to. There was a large scar on her back between her wings, and as she cried out, it burned, leaving small embers on the soft cotton sheets of the twin bed. She curled up her body, wings tightening and shivering. The lights flickered in the inn. When she realized where she was and began to cry. @Spark of Hope @Cash67 @Edema Rue 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
