The title pretty much says it all, but here's
the rest. I'm working on Lost again. Yes, it
is that terrible story based on the events in
Columbine, amongst other school shootings. Yes,
I do feel horrible about it. But it's still
there, and I did make a promise to finish it.

However, to make it readible, I need people
to help me. If anyone wants to, just reply
to this e-mail.

Keep in mind that this story will be dark,
although with less violence than one might
expect. The major focus will be how the major
charcters react.

Oh, and it will take place in the Ranmaverse,
due mainly to my lack of knowledge on
everything else.

And just so you have a general idea what
you're getting into... here's a sample
story.

*****


Mishka Jamnishmi�s Backstory;
Broken Dreams

A young woman stands alone near a grave.
Her shadow cloaks her face from the setting sun,
but emphasizes the words in the stone.

 Yuki Kinia
     and
Yuki Jamnishmi
  1958-1987
A loving couple,
 Proud parents.

The young woman stares at the grave, a
tear sliding down her cheek. Her eyes are
red, her expression tired, like a rebellous
slave who is about to surrender.
Instead, she speaks.
"I tried," her face hardens. It becomes a
mask, all emotion wiped clean, save from
the eyes.
"I tried to be all that you wanted me to
be�" It is from the eyes that the first
cracks appear.
"A good student, a good child." Another
tear slides down her face.
"A good daughter." Another crack in the
mask.
Her head lowers, then snaps back up.
The mask is gone now, letting the emotions
boil to the surface.
"Why did you leave me?" The graveyard
echoes from the shout.
"How can I do this?" She slumps, and finally
gives in.
"How can I keep trying� there�s nothing left�"
Her body shakes from the tears as she remembers.

*I can see though the illusion. *
She didn�t believe him then. Thought that
he was some wacko. She still didn�t know why
she ended up trusting him� something in his
eyes?
*I can see it in your eyes. Your soul is
echoing emptiness. *
*You can�t hide the pain from me. You want
release? *
*Freedom from the cage they put you in? *
*Follow me. *
She followed him�
She met Gokinski there.
He looked at both of them, and spoke.
*I brought both of you here because I know
what you both want. *
His eyes burned into her� almost as though
they were cutting straight to her soul.

*You, Mishka, want the freedoms you never
tasted. The life that was denied to you
because of your duties. *
He turned away, but even then, she could
still feel that gaze upon her�
*You, Gokinski, want a true friend, a soul
mate in the purest sense of the word. *
*You both want revenge upon what forced you into
your roles now. *
And she did, in a way. How many times did she
lie waiting for sleep, cursing her parents for
dying� for her brothers and sisters being too
young to help her?
*And I want to help you. *
It was then that he showed them the weapons.
*By punishing those who oppressed you. *
*By helping you to help yourself. *
He held out the weapons.
*You want that, don�t you? *

Both of them hesitated. Then, slowly, almost
without actually realizing it, their hands
reached for the weapons. She didn�t even realize
she was holding the tool of death until she felt
its weight in her hand, the coldness of the metal.

She cries until the last glimmers of the sun
vanished, until she had no more tears left to
cry with.
Then she stands and looks at the tombstone
one last time.
"I can�t do this anymore. I need freedom."
She turns from the stone cross.
"People have killed for freedom before."
She walks off into the night.

* * * *
*sings* Oh, starry night...

Anyway, this is pretty characteristic of
what I'll try to do. Each chapter is going
to focus on a different character, with the
majority being reactions to the event.

Oh, and there will be a running theme in
the back ground, for those who pay attention.

Soo... any takers?
