We fell from the heights of the highest heaven. Surrounded in red plummeting through the lower heavens, as a comet streaking across the sky, we flew past galaxy after galaxy in and out of time itself. I could feel the lines blurring as my soul began to be stripped away layer by layer barring all my strength I could not close my eyes. We fell.
Streaking through the atmosphere with a speed unparalleled in technology we landed on crashed or exploded perhaps a bit of it all into the side of the cascade mountain range the mountain that was there used to be called saint Helens. Locals mistook our crash for a volcanic eruption in which perhaps the mountain was about to go but we didn’t help.
When the smoke cleared we were there standing in a wasteland trees we scattered as if they were but a child’s toys I took a deep breath of air into my lungs staring into her eyes I gave in I could still feel her in my mind… I never wanted her to leave. Our lips met for a moment, perhaps it was a century I know not, I cared not. When I opened my eyes we were transported to a room far away, we might have walked there but it didn’t matter.
I felt different, yet I still cannot describe the change other than a subtle shift in almost every aspect and others not so subtle. I was changed I could feel it. Breath came yet was unneeded. When did I last eat? Looking at her there laying on the bed her sleeping form, a pale softness amid the sheets I surrendered once again to her arms.
