Tick . . . . Tick . . . . . Tick . . .
The sound of running water echoes in the dark
the night air streams , giving a touch of serenity in the quiet forest
the cloud swayed . . . giving way to the moon , along with it's light
The moon then shines brightly , covering everything with it's light
all around , a vast and seemingly foreign forest came into view
The plants and critters , seemingly unknown to what
one quick glance is what it need , this is not the place we all knew
far into the distance . . . a mountain stands there , giving a sense of eerieness
At the edge of the cliff , a lone figure came into view , sitting there . . . at the edge of a cliff
Then he looked up . . . into the vast and seemingly endless forest
He stares into it , with a look of contemplation
After what fells to be an enternity , he reached into his robe , it has a misterious feeling to it, like something that should not be there , something . . . . or someone that that should not exist from the beggining.
There, he pulled out a mask . . . one that's skeletal in nature and seems to made from metal , upon pulling out the mask fully , one can see that it only covers the bottom part of the face , the jaw to the nose. after it was pulled out the surrounding became eerily quiet , everything seemingly coming into halt.
Then a pair of eyes was seen , along with cloth covering the lower half of the face and blindfold covering his eyed .Then he look at the mask , slight gestures betraying his seemingly cold and emotionless face with a look of contemplacy , sadness , guilt , unwillingness . . . . and a bit of both hope and fear . . . . . ." Is this it? is this what i have to do?!? to walk on the same path that i did, one that i was forced upon ??? ", he said with a voice with a bit of heaviness. He then laughed . . . . and with a heavy heave , he said " After all this . . . . it seems that i still can't escape from my fate . . . . it seems that i can never can " .
After one last look of determination and desiciveness , he puts on the mask . He knew it was a turning point , one that he can never turn back into . After this , he will never be the same . . . , no one in his life would be , and everything will never be...
After he puts on the mask, the eerily quiet night changed into a deathly silence .
Then, he jumped , beyond the cliff and into the sky . after moment of silence , there he is . . . .
in the distance , the shadow of the forests enveloped him . . . . then , he faded away
