The First Born
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. Her fathers room had the only view of the city from the farmhouse. The rolling, autumn painted hills could be seen for miles. Beyond the hills, the colorful fields ebbed into a dull gray. The cityscape rose like monstrous giants into the sky.

The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Florence sat atop her rusted bike in the moss-covered yard. Eyes transfixed on the flickering that illuminated the black contrast of the cabin at dusk. Shadows dancing gleefully behind the flame. Keep on the path home, she thought.

The Girl
I was only thirteen years old the day I died. Tragic, I know. But the truth is, I didn’t feel much of anything. I was laying high on the branches of the old oak tree behind my family home. There was a storm rolling in and I had the best view. A view so mystifying that I never saw the strike coming.

The Outlands
Josh watched as Natalie walked towards the raging storm. Every part of him wanted to run after her and pull her back to safety. Tell her there was another way. There had to be another way. But he knew she was right. The darkness would never stop reaching for her. She would never sleep again. She would never live. So, he let her go. Natalie was his childhood friend and love of his life. Once again, he let her go.
