《Broken [FINISHED]》It's Quiet Uptown
Advertisement
The next day, Denise walked out of school, when she suddenly felt an arm around her.
'Hey babe, you were not at school yesterday,' Nick said.
Denise felt slightly uncomfortable with his arm around her, but didn't dare to shake it off. Technically, they were dating, after all. 'I was ill,' she lied.
'Aw,' Nick said, 'Are you feeling better now?'
Denise nodded.
'Will you come sit with me and my friends tomorrow?'
'Uhm sure,' Denise said. Then she saw something. Rose, Fé and Meyrin had pushed a dark-haired figure against the wall.
'I'm sorry but I have to go!' Denise said while already running away.
If you see him in the street,
'Leave her alone!' Denise yelled.
Fé looked at her, with a kind of sceptical face. Odessa looked up, revealing a massive bruise on her cheek. Denise looked at her in shock. She looked at the three other girls: 'What the fuck have you done?!'
She stood up, furious. 'Get out!' she yelled. No effect. She stepped closer to Fé, and said quietly: 'Get. Out.'
Fé had never seen Denise angry like that. 'It wasn't me,' she whispered. Then she turned around and ran away for dear life.
Walking by her side,
Odessa smiled: 'She was actually right. It wasn't her. It wasn't any of them.'
Denise sat down next to her. 'Then what happened?'
'I fell during rehearsal, into this massive set piece with arrows. My cheek hit one of those.'
Denise pulled up an eyebrow.
'Well, if it could have been them, it could just as well have been you, don't you think?'
'I would never-' Denise said, but she was interrupted by a glare from Odessa.
'You're right,' Denise sighed, 'I was a horrible person.'

Talking by her side, have pity
'I'm sorry. What I did was wrong.'
Odessa looked back, with this glare of: is that all?
He is trying to do the unimaginable
'I really was a bitch to you,' Denise continued, 'I was blind, and stupid, and I didn't dare to stand up to the leader. But most of all, I was too absorbed in my own little problems to notice anyone else's. I was really just a blind and ignorant bitch. I'm so sorry. Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?'
'Not really,' Odessa said.
Denise sighed, and stood up: 'I understand. Goodbye.'
There are moments that the words don't reach
That moment, something in Odessa changed. Was it that she realised how much courage from Denise was needed to say that? Was it that she saw Denise's hopelessness in her eyes? Was it that she realised that those words came directly from Denise's heart? Or was it something else, that is way beyond our understanding? We may never know.
There's a grace, to powerful to name
Odessa stood up: 'Wait!'
She takes his hand
Denise slowly turned around, and looked questioning at Odessa.
'I forgive you,' Odessa said.
"It's quiet uptown"
'But,' Odessa continued, 'you'll have to sit with me at lunch, just once, no talking necessary. Sitting alone is so boring!'
A smile broke through on Denise's face: 'Deal.'
Forgiveness, can you imagine?
And so, the two girls had made their second deal in less than a month.
~~~
'I get it,' Odessa said. It was the day after, lunch break, and Denise and Odessa were sitting in the aula. 'You're not a Heather. You're a Veronica.'
'What?' Denise said confused.
'Ah nothing,' Odessa said, 'Musical reference.'

Denise rolled her eyes: 'I will never understand you.'
'I will never understand you!' Odessa sang at full volume.
Denise facepalmed: 'One day with you and I'm already sick of the musical references.'
Odessa bowed triumphantically. 'Welcome in the life of a musical nerd's friend! You'll soon be regretting any life choice you ever made!'
'I'm already regretting them,' Denise sighed.
'Uhm guys?' a quiet voice asked, 'Can I come sit with you?'
Denise looked up: 'Meyrin! Yeah sure, but don't you want to sit with Rose and Fé?'
Meyrin shrugged: 'It's not like they'll notice me.'
'I was wrong,' Odessa suddenly said, 'She's not a Heather D. She's a Heather M!'
'She's a Meyrin!' Denise said, 'Will you now shut up!'
'Nahh,' Odessa said, 'She's not a Mey-Rin. More of a Paula.'
'You like Kuroshitsuji?!' Meyrin excitedly asked.
'Yes,' Odessa said, 'you do too?!'
Soon, the two girls were hooked up in an excited conversation about the anime / manga.
'What have I done?' Denise questioned herself.

8 212Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
