She felt safe here now

4/3/22 The Brown Out

  The Brown Out Sitting in her room late at night, her best friend and roommate sleeping lightly in the room down the hall, she sits, staring blankly at her computer screen. Her eyes grow ever heavier and she contemplates going to sleep but refuses. Some power of will works itself against her sleep schedule and convinces her to stay awake.  Rain falls, leaving a soft pitter patter on the roof, although she can’t hear it over her calming music. She doesn’t even know it is there. That is until she is drawn out of her trance of boredom by the dimming of her light. It does not go out completely, but darkens then immediately returns to its full brightness.  She turns to her light, “what the f-” she confusedly proclaims out loud.

8/26/22 Musical Footsteps

  Musical Footsteps One day as he walked, a musical note began to play. With each step a new note, always complimenting the one before.

10/28/22 Thief of the Night

  Thief of the Night Princess Ardwina had everything. She lived in a giant castle, had all the ball gowns, dresses, and jewelry she could ever desire, and her family was always close by. She never needed to work as everything was done for her. Her life was basically perfect. Just not for her. Spoiled as she may be, she knew that everything had been handed to her all her life. She did nothing to earn her place, her riches. She wanted to make something of her life, like the commoners of the villages, she wanted to do something, get her own gold and riches, something she had earned. As a princess she was not allowed to work like the people of the village. Her place was in the castle, tending to the formalities of a princesses life. No matter how deep her desire to be normal like her people she never could. So she found another way, a way to make her own money, a way to obtain riches that weren’t simply handed to her on a silver platter. Thievery. During the day her royal dutie...
