Description
9.I'm screaming now.
And your knife is dripping beautiful red diamonds onto the cracked pavement, of this oh-so-beautiful home we call a wasteland.
Wasteland
Wasteland
My legs won't work.
My arms won't work.
My voice is scratchy like the rubble that I'm laying on, and who are you?
'Violet!'
My lungs won't work.
And I have no Hope.
8.
Two hours and twenty-seven minutes later, I find them both. That man, with his crazy blue eyes, and his smile that is so maliciously terrifying, my legs tremble. I don't know what to think. I don't think. But that man is grinning, and grinning, and shaking, and grinning, and he's screaming, but my ears are shot.
My ears are shot.
And Violet is on the ground.
And his knife is falling out of his hand. And Violet is on the ground, in a pool of ruby red diamods,
And my ears are shot.
And that's when he pulls out his gun, with his tainted red fingers, that ruby red diamond. No hope left, no hope, no hope.
And my ears are shot.
And my ears are shot.
And my ears are shot.
And he pulls the trigger.
I am bleeding ruby red diamonds.
7.
I couldn't find Violet this morning.
And that man with blue eyes was missing too.
6.
I woke up. It was twilight outside, and that guy is standing over me. That man with blue eyes. He's holding a knife, and when we make eye contact, he runs off into the forest behind the warehouse we stay in.
Crazy, That's what I'm saying.
And when he returns that evening, he hugs me, and he's crying, and he's crying, and he's crying.
He hugs me.
Almost like we're long lost brothers or something.
If he keeps this up, he has no
Hope.
Crazy.
5.
The first thing to go was our memories. I look to Richard. Richard? He ignores me.
Richard.
He looks at me now.
Do you remember Hope?
And he looks down
When he says
'There's never been any hope.'
4.
Cassandra and
Lily disappeared today.
Michael, Matthew,
Johnathan,
Me,
Violet,
Richard.
We are the only ones left.
We are the only ones left.
We are the only
Ones
Left.
And Richard starts to laugh.
3.
It's been six months since we found each other.
Violet smiles at me.
And Richard is happy with Hope. They sneak off together sometimes, in a childish way like two teenagers might.
It almost feels normal.
And I look up.
And I see that Hope isn't there with Richard, holding hands like they usually do.
And Richard is covered in blood, with wounds so deep and horrible that I don't know what could've possibly happened.
And Richard is crying.
And I'm crying.
And I'm crying.
And there is no Hope.
2.
There are seven of us left in the world.
Only seven people left.
Richard and I
Are the only blood brothers,
The only related ones.
This would be unbearable
Without
Violet.
1.
Sometimes, bad things happen.
Like explosions in the west.
And floods in the east.
And tornados in the south.
Maybe an ice age in the north.
And when our parents died, Richard- With his smile that I've always been jealous of-
and I-with my shaggy hair that ruffles my scalp-
promised each other that we
Would always stay close.
And we know we will.
Because I can see it
In our
Blue
Eyes.

This is fantastic. All of the names that I gave you were actually people that I've met out here, except for Violet. What you did with Hope was my favorite paaart.
