Shadow-Chasers by delicate_creature
Prologue by delicate_creature

Within a tiring evening, the orange wings slip their day's bearing underneath an earth's rind. Slowly draining the once beautiful colors feathering an unbroken world. Lying still and just waiting for something to happen, he reopened those wounds like a thoughtless act of self-destruction.

He found himself in his dreary house, full off haunting memories and joy that was pronounced as he knew it. Gently thumbing the thick vodka bottle as if he yearns to quench in it's fine liquid...sorrow was near. Taking a small shot glass, he poured a generous amount as he gazed outside allowing the darkness to spite him further. And with a swift flick, he gulped down a burning pleasure.

The glimmer of silver shining so brightly, tinkering its sharp words.. ripping strange flesh...bloody tokens awarded down his arm. Tears undresses from his mind, quivering his lips as it was no longer the pain that ate him, it was more like a complete feeling he had always sought after her death...her death, he mumbled to himself when her name sneaks beneath him and endlessly cradles what little dream he had leftover.

She was gone and now he lingered so carefully, waiting for his turn when the night becomes shades of blueprints just mapping his place...where he could of been by now

Silence was very impatient, he then rests back, not even bothering to shut off the thick smoke of lights. Rubbing his old scars, raised and hinted with subtle bruise. he fights closing his eyes and staring at his bleak shadow as if someone was waiting for him there...
