Smoke. Fire. Destruction.

All of the telltale signs of war were plainly painted across the landscape. Charred corpses lined the ground, like roasted dolls, and scavengers ravenged what they could find. Vultures decended toward the ground, and circle high overhead.

Ariel awoke with a start. It was still dark, near the middle of the night. She relaxed back into her pillow. Another nightmare. They were becoming more common, and more frequent.

She listened to the silence around her, and found it eerie. It was far too quiet. She felt uncomfortable and restless.

She got up from bed, and walked over to a window. It was open just a bit to let air circulate, but there was no flow. Everything was still. It was an ominous sign, and she didn't like it. Something moved behind her.

Prismed eyes widened a moment before a heavy object struck her from behind. She was forced forward into the window frame, her forehead stricking the hard wood, and rattled the glass. She crumpled to the ground into an unconscious heap, wings splayed at odd angles.

A shadowy figure moved over her and enveloped over her, then moved off. Where Ariel had been was now vacant, the only thing left behind was two or three rainbow colored feathers.
