A Sad, Sad Time.....

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira decided to let her new-found anguish out through song: like normal. She walked up to the stage, in a bigg-ish black jacket with big breast pockets, a deep crimson, long-sleeved shirt underneath. Her pants were a pair of dark, navy-blue, baggy denim jeans, with orange lining.

She reached the familiar stage and went up. She summoned up her mic and started to sing, as she also summoned up music behind her. "Sooner or Later" by Breaking Benjamin.

"I want a normal life
Just like a new born child
I am a lover hater
I am an instigater
You are an oversight
Don't try to compromise
I'll learn to love, to hate it
I am not integrated

Just call my name
You'll be okay
You're scream is crawling through my veins

Sooner or later your gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw your life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw your life away

You're like an infantile
I knew it all the while
You see them try to play me
Just like you see on t.v.
I am an oversight
Just like a parasite
Why am I so pathetic
I know you won't forget it

Just call my name
You'll be okay
You're scream is crawling through my veins

Sooner or later your gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw my life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw my life away

Sooner or later your gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw our life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw our life away

Oooooooooooohhhh.......

Throw our life away..

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooh....

Throw our life away....."

Her amber bespeckled, sienna eyes were, again, filled with tears; as usual. Whenever she came here, she was guaranteed to cry. She had all the times she'd come here.

She tried to compose herself, and sang again, this time, a Japanese favourite. "Freeze My Love" by GLAY.

"Tume no saki kara kimi no nukumori ga kieru
Fushigi na hodo sameta wakare mo
Nemuri ga kureta yume wa omoide wo tsutsumu
Kowareru hodo kokoro dakishimete

Freeze my love
Ai wo kourasete
Nido to mezamenai you ni to
Freeze my love
Ima mo mune ni nokoru ai
Kioku wo nemurasete....

Furui beddo ni nureta karada nage dashi-te
Tsukarehateta futari wo ukabeta
Tashika na mono wa nani mo nai to
Kizuita toki
Kimi ga hidoku itoshii
Samayou muryoku na kotobatchi

Freeze my love
Ai wo kourasete
Nido to mezamenai you ni to
Freeze my love
Sugite yuku kisetsu wo hitori
Tomerarezu ni tachitsukusu.......

Wakare no yoru ni saita hana yo
Eien ni tojikomete yo my love
Utsukushii mama de

Freeze my love
Ai wo kourasete
Nido to mezamenai you ni to
Freeze my love
Ima mo mune ni nokoru ai
Kioku wo nemurasete

Freeze my love
Ai wo kourasete
Nido to mezamenai you ni to
Freeze my love
Sugite yuku kisetsu wo hitori
Tomerarezu ni tachitsukusu

Oh, freeze my love
Freeze my love

Sabita naifu mune ni sashi-te
Ima wa tooi kimi wo omou yo...
Oh, freeze my love forever.....
Onaji tsuki ga terashi-te iru
Kimi to boku no chigau jinsei...
Oh, freeze my love forever....."

"Forever......."

She cried silently, her thick, chocolate locks hiding her face. She stood, trembling and crying, just not caring about anything, really.

"Oh... freeze my love......forever......... Ark........" she whispered.

She hoped Ark could hear her, so he could feel what she feeled, even if he didn't understand most of her second song, she knew he would understand her words last uttered. the tears silently fell as she whispered

"I'll freeze my love for you.... Forever..."

((OOC: If a translation's wanted, IM me! The song's real good!! Love~Makira))

[Jesslin]

A voice, whispered in Makira's ear, soft but unnatural, "A dance hall is a happy place, why do you mock it so?" Flitting next to the girls head, her wings lightly brushed her cheeks in effect throwing tears that streamed down her face, into the air. Jesslin propped herself quite boldly onto Makira's shoulder so she was leaning against the singer's neck. Plucking at her tattered dress to arrange it over her fine legs, Jess sent her mind inwards taking healing emotions from within her soul and surreptitiously sent them into the girl. Like with a lot of faeries the magic was weak, but she hoped to achieve something for her efforts.

Her ebony hair clung to Makira’s neck, glued by tears but Jess ignored everything, concentrating on healing and speaking. “I can feel your pain but not the motive, why is it you cry, so alone? I am sorrowed by your phases and tongue; you will not make yourself happy by singing verses as you did. My heart wants you to be glad with your life!” The little faery didn’t understand why people would make themselves unhappy on purpose.

[Makira Blackthorne]

A dance hall is a happy place, why do you mock it so?

Makira gasped and shot her glance straight ahead, and her eyes widened. She turned to where the voice came from, and saw a faerie.

"My love, he.... he-he.... He has....turned." she said the last word with such hatred and grief, that it sounded unnatural for her. "An evil person has turned my love dark." A tear streamed down her now pale face. "That is why I sing these songs of grief and sadness, Miss."

Makira then felt something, like her hatred and immense angst were trying to... heal.

[Signit Sonata]

"Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life


I ripped out
His throat
And called you on the telephone
To take off
My disguise
Just in time to hear you cry when you...


You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time


Singin'...


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight


There was
Police and
Flashing lights
The rain came down so hard that night and the
Headlines read
A lover died
No tell-tale heart was left to find when you...


You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time


Singin'...


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight


Tonight


He dropped you off, I followed him home
Then I, I stood outside his bedroom window
Standing over him, he begged me not to do
What I knew I had to do cause I'm so in love with you


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight"


This song suddenly played and was accompanied by a single voice in the rafters. There sat Ark. He had been watching the stars when he heard Makira. He smiled at her then another song began to play, one they both knew well. He then sang again.

"Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou
nakisou na kao wo s***e eien no sayonara.

Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou
nakisou na kao wo s***e eien no sayonara."

All of a sudden, it sounded like an orchestra. Violins were the most pronounced. The song got strong, even though, it was tinted with sadness. Then it slowed again .....

"Kirameku nami to
tawamureteita
mujaki na kimi no
sono yokogao.
Hadashi de sunahama wo kakenukeru
kimi ga....... itoshii.

Suna ni kaita

hitomi wo tojita.

Ikutsumono yorokobi ya kanashimi mo
kazoekirenai
deai ya wakare mo
ano koro to kawarazu yasashiku miteru
orenji no taiyou."

The song was getting loud and strong again.

"Eien wo
yume miteta
ano koro no
bokura wa
itsumademo
hanarezu ni
dakiatte
waratteta."

There was a strong musical interlude. Then the music slowed, again.

"Akireru hodo

Sore dake de

Nakanai de

Hitomi wo tojireba~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!......"

"Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou

Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou

Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou

Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou

"Yuugure ni

"Yuugure ni

Nakisou na

sayounara~~~...."

"Sayounara"...


As the song died, he dropped from the rafters, landing as lightly as possible.

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira's gaze was upon the floor, when she heard music and an all too familiar voice singing.

"...Huh?......"

She listened to the song intently, until the very end.

Then, the familiar sad guitar started playing, and she saw the sun setting on the beach....

"Yuugure ni.... Kimi to mita....
Orenji No... Taiyou....
Nakisou na.... Kao wo shi-te...
Eien no.... Sayounara...."

She sang along with the voice, and looked up. Ark was sitting there, singing thier song. She looked at him, tears in her eyes. Her eyes bore into his, showing openly all her angst, grief, and lonliness. Also a small hatred of his.... Master... Danawi.

[Signit Sonata]

Ark merely looked at her and hummed the chorus of "Orenji no Taiyou"

[Makira Blackthorne]

She looked at him, lost for words.

"Yuugure ni
Kimi to mita
Oreni no
Taiyou~
Nakisou na
Kao wo sh-ite
Eien no
Sayounara...."

She said it, with a slight sing-song voice. She fell to her knees.

"Ark... What're doing here?" she asked, looking into his eyes lovingly, yet sadly.

[Jesslin]

Jesslin didn't know what to do, she hadn't seen Makira's love in the rafters, she could feel the sad girl turning her attention completely to the song and singer, they sang a private song she didn't understand, so she took to the air, violet eyes questioned innocently.

"Do you wish me to stay?" Jess' voice echoed softly, unhumanly, her black hair billowed about her face but she preferred it that way; it hid her uncomfortable expression. The boy stood before them, his eyes shining for reasons too complicated for the faery to understand as he ignored her and simply watched Makira.

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira turned her attention to the faerie.

"You can stay, if you wish, Miss. Thank you for your words and concern, though." Makira inclined her head in the faerie's directon.

She then gave a small smile towards her, and turned back to Ark, the same look in her eyes.

[Jesslin]

Flitting up to eye level her wings twinkled as they beat the air sending a zephyr in the opposite direction. The violet-eyed faery hid her uncomfort by bowing her head at the two humans in front of her, "I shall not stay, I think you are healed now, Makira. You seem nice, but I am not to be a spectator for discussion between love birds." She began to hum a song that the boy had sang and she winched as she muttered "Drat you; I'll have this song in my head all day now!"

And with that she took to the air playing a happy game of dodge-the-rafters, her black tattered dress weaving in motion with her flight. Dropping onto the last rafter on light feet she faced the two and gave a final bow intent now to disappear.

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira's eyes flitted along with the small fairy, and she put up a hand in farewell.

Her hand fell back in place by her side, and teary orbs once again, bored into Ark's.

[Signit Sonata]

Ark watched as the Fairy left and couldn't help but grin. But it disappeared as he met Makira's eyes. "I came at your call, just like I promised." he said, nodding. "Remember it? I promise I'll always come at your call, lest Hell itself bars my way." he finished.

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira nodded, thinking of her song. "Freeze My Love....." she whispered.

"Th...Th-thanks, love." she said, her voice echoing eerily throughout the massive and oh-so-familiar Dance Hall.

She loved being in here, it lets all her feelings out, to the approval, most of the time, of others on her singing. She brushed hair out her face and resisied the urge tor un up and hug him. She figured, selfishly, that he'd get tired of her hugging him and crying on him. She, of course, didn't want to annoy her love, or upset him enough to bring the darkness to the surface.

((OOC: Gotta run ta school! Bai, luv! ^^))

[Signit Sonata]

Ark knew his love well enough to know that she didn't want to annoy him but he gestured for her to come and opened his arms out wide, waiting for the rush that was bound to be.

[Makira Blackthorne]

Makira's eyes widened a bit as he beckoned her over and held out his arms.

She beamed, a few tears running down her face, She hurriedly wiped them away and blinked others away.

She ran to him, her shoes thudding dully against the Dance Hall floor.

She tightly embraced him and laughd a bit. "You know me that well already?" she asked, looking up at him.

((OOC: i might hafta leave and do the dishes, but I WILL be back... if I leave... >_> >_<;;))
