Anden
The Sun and the Moon
In an endless game of hide and seek
Anden never should have stopped looking. He knew the dangers of Caido, he knew she needed him... Instead he started a new life.
"Won't you tell me I'm pretty?"
"I...Eloise..." Anden stuttered - something he hadn't done since he'd arrived in Caido. Remnants of the past always find ways into your future. His mother always warned him to think well of the travelers who passed through their inn. He never knew when they might one day need their help.
It was just a gentle tap. A twig brushing against his leg. Anden shot his head in the direction that it came from. Suddenly he saw her. Dani clutching for dear life against the tree.
This was happening. They were in danger.
They had to run.
Anden turned to face away from the ghost of his twin. He felt the needles along his back raise, as they seperated themselves from his body. They fly through the air in a sporadic pattern. They pierced through the ghost of Eloise.
"An... Anden?"
The wraith-like spirit faded into a dark cloud, as it began to reform itself into Anden's past. This was their chance. This was their only chance to get away. Anden jumped from his perch, joining Dani on the trunk of the tree. Wrapping his arms around his companion he prepared himself for their descent.
One jump. Then another. Then another. He could see the ground now. Above them, the leaves rustled. Something was coming, and it was coming fast. Below them, the other spirits circled the tree. "What do we do?
