ALONE




She doesn't know what she's walking towards, but she feels there is something there. These woods are nothing but a façade. There is nothing alive in them, no deer, no animal. Nothing at all.


Not even the trees are real, they only exist because she wishes them into existence, because she wants to see them. She doesn't think that this is the peace she was looking for, but it is the only thing she has.


The world is lonely like this, with no one around to keep her entertained. Only her own thoughts, breaking through her thick skull and into her brain.


A sound distracts her from her path, something rustling in the bushes. There is nothing in the bushes. There is nothing.


The woman appears out of seemingly nowhere, her hair is almost black and she has the greenest eyes you will ever see. Lola had to get it from somewhere.


"Mother!" she shouts, excited, the only real mother she ever had. She embraces her and her mother embraces her back. When they both pull back from each other, however. Her face has changed into someone else's. Blonde hair and blue eyes, he did always take after his mother more than his siblings did.


"Esther." She spits out onto the forest ground, the woman in front of her laughs.


"My dear Lola, we have some things to discuss."


"There is nothing I wish to discuss with you, woman."


Esther laughs at the ground and caresses Lola's face with one non-existent hand.


"We have to discuss the demise of my children." Lola's brows scrunch up as she looks at her, was she not the one who made them immortal in the first place?  Esther just nods, like she can read her mind.


"Their hate towards one another and the world knows no bounds. They are a danger to everyone, they need to die." Lola thinks for a second, but nothing more.


Then she puts her hand into Esther's and everything disappears.
