Arrow's heart
Shadowed souls join the fight
Turn them now against the light
Here we meet them straight and true
the line we hold with Bow of yew
.
Blood stains the battle field
Neither side will they yield
Bodies falling where they may
Stalwart Blade hold this day
.
Brace Shield against the blow
Watching war's ebb and flow
Elder brother at my back
No trust in you will I lack
.
Sliding shadow through the lines
Into place where our foe dines
Dagger hidden in the Cloak
Duty done before they woke
.
Round the tables will we boast
Served in kind by grateful host
Those who always hold the Hearth
Shall we not forget their worth
.
Blade and Bow strong and true
Hearth and Shield protecting you
Trust the Cloak to make them bleed
Proudly forward Arrow lead
Wild Song
Sing the song of clawed feet
Keeping time with heart's beat
Flying through the time of now
Never do they ask or worry How
.
Feathered brother scooping air
Flowing without Rhyme or care
Cautious sister on the ground
Through woods leap and bound
.
Round the fires big and proud
Let our voice be heard loud
Spirit Kin hear our Prayer
Join us in this feast so fair
.
feather fur or scale so rough
never will they get enough
Soul and song of Man and Beast
Singing till the sun from East
Shadowed Fate
Shadowed heart casting doubt
veils of past locked you out
Future's promise shining bright
Lines of triumph Bring to light
In their chest the lady's heart
With a whisper does it start
Over time Through fickle fate
Destiny's cadence Never late
Upon the Marbled floor they danse
Those who walk this dead manse
Through the years they have found
With their Song the Night unbound
Child of shadow child of fate
Turn your heart from death's gate
Your turn has come to live this life
Free from hatred strain and strife
Soldier's Name
Ever changing the Facet's light,
Five shades of Ever ready might
Drawn together through mutual pain
Four tried and true of Diamond Fame
Fifth point a Pentacle shall aspire
.
Ladder of silver to light the Fire
Guardians protect the veil from sight
Mysteries of the past brought to light
Arrows stand adamant against the tide
Council of freedom to challenge Pride
.
Despite the facet's light shown clear
A soldier's life is held so dear
Pentacle, Diamond or walking free
Their name should be for all to see
The path walked here so worn with Love
.
Angel’s children standing with those above
Daemon's burning Wit to keep Mind keen
Child of Wild ones so quick and lean
Lady luck's hands guide thorn's bite
Masters of death's forge slay the light
.
We came from many walks of life
Drawn together by war and strife
Through it all we stand as one
Though never will it all be done
We are soldiers yet we are more
.
Though our lives may be Lore
Our hearts beat on through sacred rights
Remember us on Dark and hallowed nights
With our love for you we gave our Flame
So you could grow to learn our Name |

the night was broken by the cry of a tauren fresh to the world followed soon by an exclamation of anger by the child's family. Throwing back the tent flap the old tauren walked out fire blazing in his eyes...so many generations had gone by without the Taint of the icemist showing. Long ago when they had been a part of the larger whole of the Tauren nation their tribe had an influx of icemist blood resulting in Grey fur and rarely a white furred calf was born. since the joining with the horde and the parting of the tribe from the greater whole such children were seen as a taint subject to being exiled at best and killed at birth at worst.
letting out a deep breath he turned back to the tent and shook his head, the child was his daughter's and she would never forgive him if he killed it tainted or not. The law was clear though on the fact that it was not welcome in the camp, he would take it to the nearby Druidic circle and leave it where it was sure to be found.
Years later a young white tauren went racing across Nighthaven skidding to a stop before the old elf who merely glanced at her with a fond smile before slipping her a small hard candy and motioning to the council who were speaking to the entire group gathered in the druidic city. accepting the candy and slipping it into a pocket she turned to listen to them eyes growing wide as he spoke of the new round of trials that would begin for those wishing for to follow the druidic path in full. Glancing to her mentor she leaned up and asked him quietly if she was going to be allowed to participate this year, smiling softly he murmured back that if she was diligent in getting her chores done on time he would endorse her candidacy. |

Once upon an Awakening dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a Faint and furious volume of Ill-gotten bore.
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping
As of someone intently rapping, rapping at my Firewall door
''Tis some hacker,' I muttered, 'tapping at my firewall door -
Only this, and nothing more'
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak house center
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - Vainly I had sought to borrow
From my notebooks surcease of sorrow - Sorrow for my lost Rapport
For the rare and radiant medium whom the angels named Rapport -
Nameless here for evermore. |

[08:53] <{Ebony}> now see i agree with another one i read on there...we just need to remove warning labels and let nature take its course
[08:54] * Deadwood chuckles
[08:54] <{Ebony}> i mean seriously...why the hell do you need a warning lable on say...a Toaster that says "Warning: Electrical shock may occur if used in the shower"
[08:54] <{Ebony}> just...WTF
[08:54] I agree
[08:54] you can't replace common sense, but this makes it look like we're trying to
[08:54] and there will always be an idiot for which there isn't a label
[08:55] <{Ebony}> Just think...for every warning label that has been put there because somebody DID that
[08:55] yeah
[08:56] <{Ebony}> I got coffee the other morning...in a coffee cup...the warning label on it says "Caution: contents may be hot" Just...Wow
[08:56] <{Ebony}> last i checked coffee is Supposed to be...ya know...HOT |

oc: Finally...the last post. Hope folks enjoy this and have enjoyed the what if posts :)
No longer did she stand in front of the jackal headed god but on a dusty road that ran as far as she could see, warily she started forward only to stop and stare as the road faded out behind her. She was tempted to step off of the road and try to make her way across the country but deep inside she knew that the only way to find herself and not become hopelessly lost was to continue on the path no matter where it lead. Putting one foot in front of the other she made her way forward until a figure resolved out of the dust. Resplendent as ever he had been in life the man she called her sensei stood watching her quietly waiting…and in her heart she knew what she had to say.
Sensei, I tried so hard to be someone you could be proud of thinking that I had to be like you to be this. You left such large shoes for me to fill when you stepped aside and I stood as sentinel, I was forever looking to you hoping I would see a nod that I had done right…craving your approval. I think…after all this time once the chance to use the knowledge is past I understand why you pushed me harder each time I looked to you. I never had to seek your approval, I never had to force myself beyond my limits to make you proud, if you had not been proud of me and had not approved then you would not have spent so much time shaping me to be the arrow you knew I was and could be. I know it is too late now to tell you this but I do so anyways…thank you.
The figure bowed to her and faded away but not before she saw what looked to be approval in his eyes. Her spirit raised by this she continued on the road noting that while she could not turn back again the road had ceased to disappear behind her. Frowning she paused and examined this for a moment before returning to her trek, before long another figure stood out in the haze watching her with a quiet peaceful smile that spoke of happiness and joy in simply being alive and knowing people think of you. As she had with her sensei she let her heart speak the words she wanted to say.
Levi…I don’t know what to say, I let you down on so many counts but you always stood there with the words I needed to hear even if I didn’t want to hear them. Any girl in the world would have been lucky to call you brother and though no blood tied us you were that and more, you were my confidant and teacher, my conscience and my frustration…You were everything I needed even if I didn’t know it at the time. When you left this world all I could think of was why? Were we not good enough for you? Why would you leave us behind when we needed you so much? Since then I have realized the hurt you felt, what it was like to have someone you cared for so deeply torn from you and I realize that in truth it was not you who let us down…but us who let you down by not being there in your time of need as you were in ours. It made me realize something…I never told you thank you for all of that so though it is late…thank you.
The figure grinned at her and slowly faded away again as had her sensei, though he had gone a sense of peace settled over her heart and lightened her steps forward. Pausing she turned back again and noted that the road not only had not disappeared but it had become better…stones lined the dirt now instead of it merely being a dusty track. Chewing her lip she cocked her head again before finally moving on knowing that she had to keep going. Once more a figure resolved it, a slight girl barely any bigger then her but yet the size of a mountain when it came to personality. By now she didn’t need to do anything her heart spoke the words without hesitation.
They took you before we were ready to let you go, so many things had yet to be said or talked about, so many things were yet to be shared. I have to say though…you did leave a lot behind to make sure your memory never fades, even now I can’t look at a coconut or a lime without hearing that silly song and replaying the night I turned 20 in Anglesey in my mind. You were someone who had a head on your shoulders and whom people would follow but yet you were also of the wild and you never forgot it, you always made time for a problem that needed an ear or a shoulder and you never begrudged anyone their freedom. In the short time that I knew you I learned so much, mainly I learned that it is possible to walk the world of man and mage yet never lose the instinct and freedom of the wild…thank you.
The figure laughed soundlessly and faded away into nothingness, the only trace she left behind was a sense of wild abandon tempered by responsibility. As she had started to do the girl turned and looked behind her, now the path was paved with cobblestones set into the dirt and smoothed with cement. Shaking her head she turned and walked again, she did not have to go far before two figures stepped towards her from the shadows. Her heart ached as she looked upon them as they always would be to her and she wanted nothing more than to run to them and bury her sorrows in their shoulders and have them assure her that it was all right, instead…her heart told its story.
I tried so hard to be the woman you always said I could be…to stand and walk in your footsteps then carve a path beside yours, I have let you down so much. If you were here today I would be terrified of what you would say on my behavior…it’s been so erratic and while I have become one of the more powerful mages and walk as a full master of my legacy I am so small in comparison to your memory. I guess the truth is I never got over that night, though I have learned to grin and show the world a face that laughs and smiles as if everything was right my soul still hurts for your loss. You gave me a chance to live and keep your memory alive when you sheltered me from the men who would have ended my life like they took yours and what have I done?
I have used it to learn nothing and become nothing but a person who lives from one pain to the next shoving those she cares about away while wishing they would be close to her, I am so confused and lost. I saw it in Gramma’s eyes each time I went home to visit…she saw what I had became and she was disappointed, she knew you would be to, I made excuses now for why I had to stay in America and I couldn’t go home…they were hollow even to my ears. You would have been proud of me in some aspects though…I made a name for myself before things fell apart, had this not happened I was supposed to be going across the water to investigate the hollow of our path…they trusted me to do this, I was amazed. I guess…while I have fucked up quite a few times I have also done a lot of good with my time I just refuse to see past the blindness of that first failure when I let you down. If I had a chance to go back…I would not forget the lessons you taught me and I would remember that I walk in a line that remembers the time of our land’s birth…you gave me this legacy and for that…thank you.
As the words faded away she stood mutely waiting for her parents to do as her friends had and vanish to time and memory, instead they came forward wrapping her in their arms and squeezing tightly. No longer could she hold back the tears and she did not even try as they fell unchecked down her cheeks, all her fears became able to be overcome in this one simple act. Silently the two hugged her before looking up and stepping back yet staying within reach should she wish to touch them. Walking towards them was the jackal and to his right walked her patron mother with a soft smile. The jackal stepped forward and nodded to her before speaking, you have walked along the trail of your past and spoke words kept hidden not only from others but from yourself. Have you learned anything from all of this?
Thoughtfully she gazed on him then looked behind her to the road speaking as she did, I believe I have…I spoke in haste when I said I was not worthy, I was hurt and angry at those I thought had wronged me and sought only to cause my unhappiness. I was willing to throw it all away because of words which in time mean nothing and ignored the actions that mean everything. I believe also that it was not nor was it ever my right to judge my worthiness…that lies solely in the hands of those who view my actions with an unbiased eye and yet still stand beside me for who I am. I have but one question though, why did the road change?
The jackal laughed at that before answering her, the road is the path your heart has carved for itself, as you walked it alone that path was doomed to vanish into nothingness and take you with it. When you accepted another onto that path you made a point at which it was safe and your path would always exist to lead you straight, each person who you accepted onto your path only served to make it stronger and more resistant to wear. The only way it will ever disappear again is if you allow their actions to become nothing to you, at that point your tears will wash away the traces. Our time here is through now, go but remember what you have learned…prove that you can become the person you say.
As the girl opened her eyes for the last time she knew that no more would she dream as she blinked as the message had been clear. Standing she stretched as her replacement came in the door and smiled at her, returning the smile she dusted herself off and grabbed her backpack to go do a bit of shopping. Unseen to all but the sharpest of eyes a small circle of wetness dotted the floor mute witness to what could happen in the time it takes to blink. |

ooc: same as other two, what if posts of boredom, this one ties in to before the first post and after the second both. Hopefully if my brain cooperates it sets up for the fourth and final post after which i will put the full thing together.
She followed the Jackal for what seemed like an eternity never seeing any change in the landscape save for the footprints fading into the distance behind them. It gave her plenty of time to think and come to terms with what had happened. She could recall flashes now, Brendan and Nova were watching a movie when they knock had come. She had stood up to answer it frowning at the unfamiliar man before her, for his part he merely grinned and put a bullet in her chest at point blank range sending the small girl flying back in surprise. She was on her feet the instant she touched the ground with saber drawn telling the two to leave quickly and go to the others, they got a few steps before his spell disabled them.
Turning to face him again she leveled the blade while the wound in her chest closed on its own causing the other to frown then just grin coldly and move to close the distance drawing a wicked looking blade with grooves into the handle and an odd triggered device set into it. Warily she backed up to give herself maneuvering room quickly blocking the wicked blade as he lunged at her then twisted to make her own strike before they each backed off to assess their dance partner. Again and again the two met nicks and scrapes taking their toll on her more than him even though she healed the damage with barely a thought; he was quite obviously toying with her.
Finally he bored of this game and pressed his attack sending the girl backwards till she was pressed against the wall fighting for her very life against a monster that had spent his killing and causing pain, for the first time in a very long time she was utterly terrified of loosing. As if her fear brought the fun back to the game he grinned again and suddenly pressed his attack using his weight to hold her against the wall disabling her blade before drawing his slowly along her jaw tweaking it ever so slightly to draw blood and a flinch from her. Finally he stepped back as if growing bored again allowing the girl a chance to regain her own footing, as she did he suddenly grinned and spoke the words tiger tiger burning bright.
For a moment she paused and looked at him oddly trying to puzzle the meaning out, it was her fatal mistake. The man lunged forward and before she could bring her saber up to block he had jammed the wicked blade into her stomach and released the catch then as quick as he had lunged at her he leapt back to watch her reaction. At first she merely healed the wound watching him cautiously taking a chance to catch her breath then she realized it was harder than it should be to catch it and panic set in, frantically she formed the spell to cleanse her body of all toxins only to have it counter spelled time and time again.
Before long the effort was more then she could even attempt as the venom quickly worked its way through her body shutting it down leaving her paralyzed and finding it harder to breath by the second. As she neared the edge of complete shutdown the man cast something over her removing the venom yet leaving her body damaged by it and barely able to function yet very much aware. With an amused look he slowly wandered over to the other two and woke them yet kept them Immobile and propping them up so they had a view of each other and the room. Turning back to her he tsked and spoke that he had expected their mother to be guarding them but in her lack she would have to do to view the message.
Walking back over the man crouched down beside her and made sure she was setting up and had a view of the other room, as he was adjusting her body he told her that she was enjoying the effects of the tiger snake venom a rare but deadly snake found in Australia known to cause death in minutes. After he was certain she was able to see he returned to the others and began coldly and ruthlessly butchering them assuring that their screams were not heard outside of the sanctum. Finally he stood and pulled out a gun and gave her a chilling smile before speaking I am here Fiction, I know you will see…I hope your freedom is worth it to you, is it to them? Three shots later the bodies lay cooling in their own blood a testament to the depths one can sink.
She still heard those shots as they neared the end of their journey and stood before the jackal headed god of death. Quietly she greeted him, I am here father at last…my soul waits to be sent where you will it and I am ready now to go. The god watched the soul which he had created along with the child’s patron mother for a long moment before standing and walking towards her obviously startling her. Child of Bast you know not what you say, you have roads left to walk yet before you are ready to see my realm and voices yet to be heard. Frowning she looked up to him, what do you mean? My feet have brought me to you as has your servant. With an amused look he shook his head; soon you will understand…You have only to blink.
Third time’s the charm some say…this was no easier then the first though she need not even look to the clock to know that only a few seconds once again had passed, the tear was almost to her chin. |

oc: Same as last time...This is a part two to the last post, already working on the next part in my head...yeah i get really bored.
The rings were unmistakable…strung on a chain and placed around her neck for safety the silver engagement band and the lunargent wedding band with its moonstone setting were a pair that none save her partner copied. Quietly she touched her chest feeling them there but unable to deny the sight in front of her, the bodies and the blood were a testament to the cold truth of her failure and the price paid by all. Walking over to them she knelt down and touched both of her charges their bodies solid to her as they lay in death though she could not change even a wrinkle in the shirt.
A sound behind her caused the girl to spin dropping to a crouch only to stop and blink a few times at the coal black jackal watching her in amusement. Nodding quietly she acknowledged his presence and once she had did that he stepped back obviously willing to let her settle things to her satisfaction. With a sigh she stood and walked over to the figure that had thrown up on coming into the room and knelt beside him. Shin…gods he was barely out of his teens, why did he have to be present for something like this? Reaching out she touched his face smiling slightly then stood up again, Shin…I told you I would always be there as a friend to lean on and I lied…for that I am so sorry, please forgive me.
Turning again she stepped over to a figure watching with a stony face, Zohar…the person who she saw as a sister and had wanted nothing more than to have her approval. Zo, I’ve fucked up so many times and drawn you into it. Other then Billy and sis you’re the only constant in my…well what was my life and I never really told you how much it meant to me. I made a mistake when I walked away from the cabal and from the first family in this fucked up country that I had but I could never find the courage to admit it or to admit why I left. I looked up to you and wanted your approval, I craved the knowledge that you thought I was more than a fuckup kid, I guess I tried too hard too many times to be like you, please forgive me.
One by one she went to her friends and family pouring her heart out to deaf ears and asking for forgiveness she never had the courage to ask for in life. One by one each faded from her sight till she was left with the bodies and the jackal. Quietly she kept her focus on the bodies as if wishing them away by sheer will and her life returned to her, she kept at this till a sleek head inserted itself under her hand and the jackal gently let her know it was time to go. With one last look around she nodded and walked off with him.
It was a less of a start this time as she came back to reality and a quick glance to the clock verified that she had been out of it for only a few seconds again, the tears had barely had time to reach her cheeks. |

this has absolutely nothing to do with anything icly...while i would not put it past chelle to be evil this was just me being insanely bored and wanting to write.
I turned on the evening news
Saw an old man being interviewed
Turning a hundred and two today
Asked him what's the secret to life
He looked up from his old pipe
Laughed and said "All I can say is ."
Don't Blink
just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and you
Wake up and you're twenty-five and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife
Don't blink
just might miss your babies growin' like mine did
Turning into moms and dads; next thing you know your better half
of fifty years is there in bed
And you're praying God takes you instead
Trust me friend, a hundred years goes faster than you think
So don't Blink
Gods…why did her head feel like someone was pounding on it with a hammer? Setting up she glanced around furrowing her eyebrows at the whitewash on the world, had she been drugged to get to the kids? Fuck the kids if anything had happened to them…shit check on them quickly. Blood…oh lady so much blood everywhere…it was as if some made artist had used the walls as a painting, the sight of it nearly made her throw up. Where was Shai…damnit what had happened here? Bodies…find the bodies and they would lead to the truth and who did this.
I was glued to my tv when it looked like he looked at me and said
"Best start putting first things first."
Cause when your hour glass runs out of sand
You can't flip it over start again
Take every breath God gives you for what it's worth
Don't Blink
just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and you
Wake up and you're twenty-five and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife
Don't blink
just might miss your babies growin' like mine did
Turning into moms and dads next thing you know your better half
of fifty years is there in bed
And you're praying God takes you instead
Trust me friend, a hundred years goes faster than you think
So don't blink
Footsteps outside the door, they would help her to figure it out. Turning she sprinted for them skidding to a stop having to squint to make them more then blobs…fuck what had been in that drug. Franticly she called out to them and raced for the next room, the sound of feet behind reassured her that they had heard and were coming. The first to enter gagged at the sight and turned heading away to retch, the next was ready for the sight and set about the grim task of finding the bodies amidst the mess. Soon the two people she had been guarding were laid out side by side both dead from multiple injuries meant to inflict terror and pain.
So I've been tryin' ta slow it down
I've been tryin' to take it in
In this here today, gone tomorrow world we're livin' in
Don't Blink
just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and ya'
Wake up and you're twenty-five and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife
Don't Blink
just might miss your babies growin' like mine did
Turning into moms and dads; next thing you know your better half
of fifty years is there in bed
And you're praying God takes you instead
Trust me friend, a hundred years go faster than you think
So Don't Blink
Standing again she made her way back out of the room looking for fiction hoping that some way she could make this right even if it meant her friend taking her anger out on her. The call of someone from the outer room made her head that way hoping to maybe find her there. Instead she found someone leaning over something in the corner cursing fluently, who else had been in the house? The figure picked up the body and moved into the room they had just left to lay it with the others. Following she frowned that so far nobody had addressed her or her failure to protect them, she understood why when the body was lain down. Covered in blood and holes the body was barely recognizable but even it could not hide the two rings hung from her neck by a chain.
No, don't blink
No, don't blink
life goes faster than you think
so, no don't blink
With a gasp her eyes snapped back open looking around and feeling her chest to make sure she was indeed on one piece. These actions only earned her an odd look from the two she was guarding before they looked at each other wonderingly. A quick glance to the clock confused her for a moment, the amount of time she had spent in the thought had been near an hour but according to the clock only a few seconds had passed…long enough to blink. |

| | accomplished | ] |
Ever changing the Facet's light,
Five shades of Ever ready might
Drawn together through mutual pain
Four tried and true of Diamond Fame
Fifth point a Pentacle shall aspire
.
Ladder of silver to light the Fire
Guardians protect the veil from sight
Mysteries of the past brought to light
Arrows stand adamant against the tide
Council of freedom to challenge Pride
.
Despite the facet's light shown clear
A soldier's life is held so dear
Pentacle, Diamond or walking free
Their name should be for all to see
The path walked here so worn with Love
.
Angel’s children standing with those above
Daemon's burning Wit to keep Mind keen
Child of Wild ones so quick and lean
Lady luck's hands guide thorn's bite
Masters of death's forge slay the light
.
We came from many walks of life
Drawn together by war and strife
Through it all we stand as one
Though never will it all be done
We are soldiers yet we are more
.
Though our lives may be Lore
Our hearts beat on through sacred rights
Remember us on Dark and hallowed nights
With our love for you we gave our Flame
So you could grow to learn our Name |

You can do what you want just seize the day
What you're doing tomorrow's gonna come your way
Don't you ever consider givin' up, you will find, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be here beside you
stay until the break of dawn
The chill of the desert air ruffled the bushes on the twin graves and caused the two standing nearby to drawn their light hoodies closer as they watched. to the casual observer the twin girls were Identical...but to those who came near the battle weary stance of the one with the ring and the quiet contemplative look of the other marked them as night and day...or by their choice Ebony and Ivory. 30 years to the day the two inhabitants of the graves had left the twins alone and unsure in a world of evil and chaos unready though they knew their destiny. They had each gone their separate ways and worked to become what their parents had wanted them to become...and here they stood decades later each as representatives of their orders.
Take a walk in the park when you feel down
There's so many things there
that's gonna lift you up
See the nature in bloom a laughing child
Such a dream, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be here beside you
I just wanna be here beside you
stay until the break of dawn
It wasn't till Dawn broke over the sand that they thyrsus moved from their vigil nearly collapsing in a pile as their muscles complained about the sudden use. With a bemused look Ebony helped her sister to her feet again and together they made their way back to the house and the waiting lunch as well as Ebony's waiting family. This had been the children's first trip to visit the graves of their grandparents...thought they had been to spend time even summers with her family the time had never seemed right. The only reason she brought them this time was because of her oldest, at 18 he was the first of the family to awaken to a tower outside of the primal wild and she wished to speak to the elders as well as bring him for instructions in his family's heritage. Thus far by mutual agreement she and cedric had kept them unaware of the nature of the world beyond as they were unsure of if all would awaken or even become walkers or if they would stay asleep for their life’s blessedly avoiding the dangers of the world.
You're looking for somewhere to belong
You're standing all alone
For someone to guide you on your way
Now and Forever
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be anybody
The return flight to the states was quiet and uneventful...the plane her grandfather provided had sleeping compartments which currently housed the twin boys who had promptly fallen fast asleep after a long day playing with the cubs at the center. With a yawn she curled up against her husband's chest and glanced up at him murmuring sleepily "thank you" before drifting off to sleep.
Living in different ways
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you to a place I've never been
before oh yeah
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you in my arms and fly away
with you tonight
The sensation of someone setting on the couch beside her drew her from the deep slumber to blink sleepily up at whoever would dare intrude and wake her up ready to kick a feline off of the couch. at her confused sleepy blink he chucked and leaned down to kiss her forehead "Thank you for what love?" she furrowed her eyes at him "what do you mean?" he smirked slightly earning him a sleepy glower which only caused him to chuckle more "when I came in you murmured thank you to someone...and as the kid is asleep..." Finally the dream came back to her in vivid detail and caused her to smile curling up closer to him "Just thank you...for making my life Beautiful"
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life |
