It's Finally Over.[Open]
Lina couldn't sleep once again, so she made her way out into the hall, this time carrying out her blood-red guitar and a wooden stool. She then plopped herself on it, with the guitar clinging on. She strummed a little introduction ... and then began to hum ...
Do, do ... do, do ...
Do, do ... do, do ...
Of all the things I believed in
I just wanna get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry, counting the days
That pass me by ..
I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
Feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And then I said ...
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
And I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes, you chase the thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right ...
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto ...
And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I ... want what's mine
I want you, but I'm not giving in this time ..
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
The one thing that I tried to hold onto ...
Slowly, the strumming drew softer and softer ... and so did her voice..
And when the stars fall I will lie awake ..
(whisper) You're my shooting star ...
Lina breathed in slightly, closed her eyes, and tilted her head back ... she seemed over him ... she did ... and she was ..

"Such a beautiful song, from such a beautiful siren, tell me what do you call that?" Came a strong voice from behind the young disciple. It was the titan known as Talus, a fellow disciple in the empire and a casual observer of the universe.
As he stepped from the shadow's a poweful, yet gentle hand was placed on Lina's shoulder and the man smiled down on her, a reassuring smile of friendship and camraderie.
"Though it's odd that such a bright spot in these dreary halls would sing such a sad song..."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Lina Capulet on 11-19-2002 07:31 PM:
She flinched a bit at the sight of Talus standing above her. She smiled as he complimented her on the song, and shrugged plainly.
"It's just a song with a meaning .."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Talus Invictus on 11-20-2002 03:45 PM:
Talus grunted, he understood the answer, it meant I don't really want to talk about it, but I'd like some company.
"How long have you been writing songs for?" He asked, he would talk to her about other things and if she wanted to discuss something she'd say something.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Lina Capulet on 11-20-2002 03:50 PM:
"Not long .. it's a hobby."
She smiled, glancing down at her blood-red guitar wiith a sparkle in her eye. She then glanced up at him again, trying to make conversation.
"So, how are you Mr. Invictus ?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Talus Invictus on 11-22-2002 11:51 AM:
Talus grinned and bowed humbly: "I am doing quite well and yourself Madamoiselle Capulet?"
He could be a ham with people he liked, though most did not see this side of him. Lina however was an exception, he felt a kinship towards her. He had felt it as they sparred on the training grounds, he had a respect for her, she was the first female he'd ever done battle with.

"Pretty much better than I usually was."
She said it with a huge grin, which was something she didn't normally do. But then the grin subsided slowly ..
"But ... still kinda bored."

Lina blinked, thinking she had heard the noise of someone else, but shrugged it off.
"By the way, how are things with you and Miss Darkstorm ?"
She giggled, and gave him a small wink.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Talus turned in the direction of the commotion and peered intently.
"Strained... but we are working on it." He replied to his friend.
Talus then shook of the noise as if it were a shadow of something he would have to deal with later.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That's great .. you guys make a really good couple."
She smiled some, and remembered a bit of her love life. The good things of course, even though they were a bit more blurry than the bad things ..
"How's the training coming along ?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Talus Invictus on 12-08-2002 03:41 PM:
Talus grinned at the question: "I think you know the answer to that..."
He then rubbed his stomach, looking at Lina: "I also know the answer to how your training is going as well."
He laughed a bit at his comments. There were scars where he'd refused corrective surgery to mask his wounds.
"So what are you doing all alone out in the halls of the Empire tonigth?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Lina Capulet on 12-08-2002 04:16 PM:
"Singing away memories ... helps with practise. And I can't really sleep at night .."
She shrugged and smiled up at Talus. It was good to have somebody talking to her like this .. Lina slowly took her guitar and placed it inside her black case, which wasn't too far away. She did this with deep care, for she treated the guitar as if it were her own .. like Eve who had a love for her motorcycle Cloud
"What about you Mr. Invictus ? I didn't really expect you to be out this late ..."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Talus Invictus on 12-08-2002 04:29 PM:
" only require about 4 hours of sleep a day. Benefits of my genetic engineering. So I spend the most of my spare time reading or training." Talus replied simply.
"That and I was called by a siren's song." He laughed.

"Heh, never knew you read."
She smiled some, but her face grew red in embarrassment as he said the last comment.
"Siren ... ? Sure, why not."
She laughed a bit, trying her best to shrug off the red blush that reached her cheeks absently.
