Tears. Anger. Guilt. Regret. I kneel before the dragon. "Can't you do something to take this away?" The dragon rests its head on its front claws. "I cannot, my child. For I was created from your struggles." Rage flushes along my cheeks. "However, though I grow stronger from you, I can help you become stronger." "How?" I ask. The dragon spreads its wings. "If you can resist me, if you can send me away, you will have gained that strength." I clench my fists, gazing into the dragon's eyes. "I...I don't know how... I've lived like this for so long..." The dragon gently pressed its face against my entire being. "My child, you can overcome. You have support." Its eyes glowed, images of my friends and loved ones surrounding me.

Winter groaned in pain, his eyes slowly cracking open. A miniscule shaft of light edged through the iron barred window. How long had he been locked away? He struggled to lift himself from the ragged sheet that had been his resting place, only to be forced back down. He gazed down at his body.

The wind brushed my hair backwards, bouncing the metallic links of the fence behind me. My fingers gently gripped the structure, gazing at the cityscape below me. The light of the sunset caused the many windows and signs on the buildings to sparkle, my eyes closing. Familiar faces slowly appeared from the shadows of my mind, their eyes filled with hate. Feeling my lips tremble, a song drifted out. How can I move on, When everyone I see still talks about you? How can I move on, when all the best things I have we made together? My fingers began to slip from the fence, feeling my body lean forward. The song continued. Here's to letting go, but I am lost in a void with your ghost and our memories. The wind grew faster around me, letting myself fall towards the ground. The faces continued to stare, laughing. Lest we forget the great reset... A pair of black feathered wings enveloped me. Tears fell like rain onto the city. How can I sleep with this coldness inside me?
