Shadow-Cry: Episode 1 ( The Fall )

I had a life back then. Someone to share my love with. I was cheated of it. Despair and anger was all that filled me. I was finally consumed by death.

My name is Brad before I earned the name Shadow-Cry. A simple name for a simple person. I was 18 when I met this special girl. As an orphan I hardly recieved this feeling. She was named Diana. Talking to her, and being friends with her was all that mattered to me. We kept a long-lasting relationship, taking a step to have a boy-girl relationship.

Dull he may be but he provided a little comfort. Diana knew the problem, she cried at my door for 3 hours. I was crying inside too, but anger was my face.

I could not take this pain any longer, I climbed on the window sill, looked down, and shivered. A cold wind was blowing, I did not know how it would feel to hit the ground. I knew this was the wrong thing to do. When Charlie finally broke open my door, I was already falling 150 feet above ground. It was a cooling sensation as I lay against the wind. I saw the ground coming towards me fast. I said a prayer just before I hit the ground. The pain spread over me like fire. Though the wind was knocked out of me, I finished my prayer. "A..me..n.."
