The White Queen: R.I.P.

Bella's eyes followed the guard along his path out the door as she whispered softly, then grew louder until she was almost shouting, "Let the dawn break. Let the sun arise from its long slumber and take its place among the heavens where it shines so brightly that nothing else dares to show its face in the same light blue sky. Let the dawn break. Even the dawn needs to break down and cry sometimes.
"Let the sun rise. Let the sun come over the horizon, a conquering symbol of power and hope to the world that inspired the greatness that became humanity. Let the sun rise. We all need our day of glory.
"Let the sun set. Let the sun set under the blankets of soft green hills and rest, be it for days, weeks, or months if need be. Let the sun set. Even the sun needs to rest.
Let the moon hang. Let the moon hang in shy shame, oblivious and unaware as to the solemn beauty that compels us all to stop and stare. Let the moon hang. We need to learn from her example.
"Let the sky shine. Let the dawn break, the sun rise, the sun set, the moon hang, let the world cry out to the heavens with anguish when we have killed the sky. For that is truly when doves cry.
"And it’s all your fault.
"You refused to listen to me!"

A guard push shawn into a empty cell. "No! I didn't kill them. It was the blue creatures. I'm not a murder!" he yelled.

Bella calmed down, smoothing out her hair, "You see them, too?" She said calmly as if nothing had ever happened.

"ya. They killed my family. And i got blamed" he said rather quickly.

Bella nodded, "I see. So you met the bad ones."

"I don't know why they started attacking now. They've never hurt anyone till now." he sat down in the middle of the cell.

"They must have just shown up." She said simply, "Or, they found what they wanted."

"what do they want?" he asked.

Bella shrugged, "I don't know. I can only speak a little of their language."

"i met one that could speak English. He was always with me. But every time i asked him about his kind he wouldn't say anything."

Bella nodded, "They are sworn to secrecy. They won't tell anything intimate about their race."

he nodded once "people thought i was weird for talking to nothing"

"Same here." Bella offered kindly, "But don't worry, I can get us out of here. I'm just waiting."

"Waiting for what?" he asked

"That's the mystery." She smiled, "What. See if you can figure it out." She smiled, leaning against the wall and closing her eyes, humming a melody that no one knew, but yet it sounded familiar.

"waiting for anything to happen" he stood up and leaned against the wall.

Bella smiled, "That would be telling, wouldn't it?"

"ya i guess" he smiled. One of the blue creatures just walked through Shawn's cell door and sat down next to Shawn.
