"Happy eighth birthday, Audrey!" an enthusiastic birthday girl said to her best friend.
"You too, Caitlin," the other birthday girl said as the two hugged.

~~~

The nineteen-year-old stood quietly, her eyes glued to the gray, marble headstone. Her eyes scrolled over the words again and again, tears streaming down her freckled cheeks, even though she had read them every day for ten years.

Audrey Hall
June 17, 1993 - February 2011
Lost and Never Found
Gone but Never Forgotten

She knelt down and ran her fingers across the stone; it dropped along with her eyes. She knew the her best friend's body wasn't under there. What the headstone said was literal: she was never found, but pronounced dead after being missing for a year and a half.

"Happy nineteenth birthday, Audrey," Caitlin whispered. She could almost hear the words "You too, Caitlin," in reply from her friend. Slowly, she placed a concrete stone next to the marble. It was roughly flattened with two small handprints imprinted in it.

"Do you remember this?" she asked quietly, placing her hand over the small imprint on the right side. "This was from our eigth birthday party. From what we called arts and crafts time." She smiled weakly as her eyes swiveled along the colorful beads that flecked the rock. "This is my hand. And that one is--" Caitlin paused for a moment, took a breath and continued. "And that one was yours."

She sat in silence for twenty minutes. It wasn't until a family of birds began chirping loudly that she snapped back to reality. Caitlin smiled (although her lips didn't part as she did so) and stood up, letting out another deep breath. She began to walk away, and slid her hand across the top of the marble headstone as she did.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Audrey. Happy birthday."

>Part II<
"What game should we play next?" Caitlin asked her friend.
A glint appeared in Audrey's eye; it always did when she had an idea. "Let's play adventure!"
"But where will we go?" Caitlin asked.
"Well, we can go to the field and woods down the street!"
"Sounds like a plan."

~~~

Pulling out her camera, Caitlin began to talk to her friend. "I'm going on vacation for a few days, so I won't be able to actually be here until I get back." The camera flashed as the picture of the headstone was taken. "But don't worry, we'll still have our daily visits." Caitlin sat down, indian-syle. She was silent for a moment.

"Do you remember that time my dad took us fishing when we were 12?" Caitlin asked. "I fell into the water off the side of the boat. I didn't really know how to swim... When I got pulled back onto the boat, I found out that you were in the water swimming after me before my dad had any time to react." Caitlin sighed.

"You were always heroic. You were always amazing. You were my guardian agel, I swear. Always there for me, whether it was physical or emotional trouble I was in." Looking at her feet, then back at the grave, she took a breath and continued, "And those are always great traits to have." She began to choke up. "But the worst thing about all that is... is that..." Tears began again. There wasn't a day that went by during a visit she didn't cry.

"Audrey, it got you killed. I got you killed."

>Part III<
"Run, Cate!" Audrey screamed, moving as quickly as her short legs would take her. Caitlin had always been slower than Audrey.
Caitlin turned her head around to see what it was. The snarling, growling... thing. Its four feet moved across the ground quickly, its glowing, yellow eyes drawing nearer by the second. "It's... too.. fast..." Caitlin panted. She jerked her head back forward to see Audrey picking up a tree branch that fell from a tree near them. She stopped moving and turned towards the beast.
"Leave my Caitlin alone!" she screamed, swinging the branch as soon as Caitlin passed. A whimper echoed, and Caitlin turned to see Audrey running behind her. "Keep going!" she yelled. "I think we lost it!" Caitlin nodded, and ran back to her house. A gunshot echoed through the air, scaring her and pushing her harder. She ran back where the party had been at just hours ago. She turned, surprised Audrey hadn't passed her on the way.
Audrey was gone. She never made it back to the house.

~

Caitlin winced at the memories. She didn't like to think about it, but ever since she got to her vacation spot in Georgia, she had thought about it every day. Something was weird...

"Mom, I'm going to the Pancake House for breakfast!" Caitlin called, walking out of the old-timey house just across the street like she had done every morning so far.

"Hey, Caitlin! Back again for pancakes this morning?" The same waitress would greet her each day and take her order. She brushed her brown bangs from in front of her eyes. Her nametag read Amy, so Cate assumed that was her name.

"Hey, Amy!" Caitlin called. "You know it!"

"Alright, what can I get for you?" Amy joked.

"Hmm," Caitlin began sarcastically, "I think I'll take a pizza with french fries." The two chuckled.

"Alright, two chocolate-chip pancakes comin' right up!"

Caitlin twiddled her thumbs and sat quietly. When she saw Amy approaching, she sat up and smiled. But before the waitress could reach her, a crash was heard from the kitchen. Amy put the platter on a nearby table and ran back to help.

She's so fast, Caitlin thought, chuckling to herself. Amy was back soon, picking the platter back up and carrying the rest of the way to Caitlin.

"Sorry about that," she said, smiling.

"It's alright!" Caitlin said. She looked up at the waitress, realizing she'd never really paid much attention to Amy's physical features. Her hair, her nose...

Her eyes.

Clear as glass, they looked at Caitlin, confused as she began to stand up. "Cate, you okay?" she asked.

Caitlin extended her arms and rested each hand on one of Amy's cheeks.
"Audrey..?"

[[ Should I continue? x3 ]]

Kitteh :3~ YES and YES. I'd LOVE to hear more. <3

This is the story of life.
Life is a cruel thing, many seem to over pass that important fact. I have not, and life doesn't like me either, so that helps me a lot.
It's ironic. His name was life, but he was never cruel to me.

And here is our story.

+=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=═=+

Life

Solace

No matter how close we tried to be, we never could be together.

Thank you<'3
It means a lot to me, something similar to this happened to my cousin.

"Gimme back Mel!"

Mel was his black little Bear which he had to have everywhere no matter what.

"Then you give me Rose"
Rose is a hat which I wore everywhre no matter what. I was a silly child, naming a hat.
Also my signafying the love of plants.

We had a simple life, always teasing each other. Our families were very close to each other, only a few feet in between the dens.
We loved going places, from beaches to volcanoes, from big cities to little villages.

The one place I had seen that he hadn't was a mountain.
The same mountain that hadviolently destroyed his older brother who was now unable to walk.
He had an insane fear of snow from that day forward.

Yet he so desperately wanted to go there.

Why you ask?

He needed to. That is all he ever told me.

So one day, just us two traveled north to the mountain. We liked to call it Mt. Marwolaeth.

"A.-a-aare you sure about this?"
"Of course"
I would always say that, whether I was sure or not.

I knew we were going to be in pain, whether it be physical or mental, when we headed back.

When we could finally see the mountain in the dense fog that shrouded our sights, both of us gasped simoultaiously.

"I'm nervous....."
He always said that.
Then he ended up loving it.
Always...
Always.

After the 56-mile trek that lay behind us, we stand at the foot of the mountain.
I looked over to see how Life was doing.
He had a look on his face that I- no one would, or could, describe. Pure horror.
Until I realise the is the exact spot that it happened.
The Avalanche.

We started slowly up the craggy mountain paths as slowly as we could, for the fear of falling.
As I naturally hurried ahead, he kept the slow pace.

As I got dangerously near the top, I screeched, I hadn't realised how high up I had gotten. Life was much too far down. Little had I noticed that when I screeched, the snow shook.
But that wasn't what I was worried about at the time.
And that was my mistake.

'Life! Where are you Life!?'
Is what I had yelled. Hearing no response, the snow in which direction I had yelled had started to move, gaining speed.
Fast, faster, and faster it went.
"Liffeee! Noo no nono Life! Where are you!!"
I heard a terrifying yelp.
And every thing went black.


I woke up, my paws black wtih frostbite.
I couldn't remember what had happened, that was common.
I had jsut assument Life had gotten to the top and saw me sleeping and decided not to wake me up and was waiting at the bottom, that's usually what he did if I fell asleep.
As I padded down the mountain, I saw the reminants of the Avalanche.
Then it all came back to me...

'I can't live with myself'
Is what I always thought.
Still heading downward, I searched for a body.
Hoping to myself 'Maybe he escaped it. Maybe he did'
Then I always remembered I had said 'maybe'.

Truthfully I did expect to see him, but I was wrong.
I never found him.
No fur, no teddy, no scent.
He disappeared.
But the snow had taken him from me.
I would never forget that.

I walked back in silence, not thinking about where I was going either so I ran into multiple tree and shrubs.
My fur was full of dirt and leaves. I still couldn't feel my paws, but it was getting warmer and so were they.

After the extremely long walk back to my den, I thought for a minute.
The think snow on the ground froze my paws again.

I walked over to my garden, it was dead. No surprise there..Wait
The snow had killed them. Just like Life.
I shall make a garden.
And it will live.
And it will be Glorious.
I'm sorry, Life. You were never cruel after all.





This story is very emotional to me, as it closely relates to me and my family.

Looking for more flowers and plants to add to Solace's Garden.

Sad... But Beautiful...
I almost cried.
Wonderful work, Collie+Bur.
*sends flowers*
i feel so bad for you.

A soft knock on the door, barely audible, awoke the dark lord from his slumber.

"Enter."

A thin trail of light broke the dark atmosphere of the room as it opened and an impossibly pretty girl stepped into the room. Her skin was the color of ivory and smooth as silk. Flowers wound around her neck, giving off the sweetest of scents. If only her eyes didn't portray such hatred ...

The man smiled lazily at her. "Ah, my darling Persephone. What brings you to my humblest of chambers?"

She stuck her chin out defiantly and glared at him. "Darling, my ass. I've only come to tell you that I'm leaving and going home."

He sighed. "Is it really that time of year again?"

Persephone smirked at the dark shadowy figure. "Right it is, and thank Zeus for that."

"You DARE to speak that name in my presence?" Hades roared furiously. "You can't even begin to imagine the torture I can bestow upon you. I can--"

Persephone chuckled, cutting him off mid-threat. "Oh, chill out. You really must watch that terrible temper of yours." she said, making a tsk-ing noise. "Anyways, I'm off. Later, loser."

Hades flew in front of her, cupping her face in his hands. "My sweet queen, I shall miss you terribly in these next few months you are gone from me. But as always, you will return and I will be happy once more."

She smiled seductively and leaned in close, until her lips were almost touching his. Hades closed his eyes, shivering at her closeness, and leaned in for the kiss.

That is, until she twirled her head around, whipping his face with her long, blond hair. Laughing, she skipped out the door and paused only long enough to glance at him with disgust in her eyes.

"I will never be your queen, Hades. Suck on that. See you in a few months."

The king of the Underworld watched the princess ascend further into the black sky until her could see no more of her. Chuckling softly to himself, he whispered to the shadows around him.

"Oh, but Persephone, my beautiful little gem. How wrong you are about that ... how very, very wrong."

Weird, sick, twisted version of the myth of Persephone and Hades.

@aqua: Lovely interpretation! Very well done. ;D
