Subject: ((Gah, I leave for a coupla days...)))

By now, Mikado had wandered to the eggs, looking among them, but also feeling specially attracted to the queen egg. It had an aura about it, unlike anything she ever felt. She glanced at the other candidates, so deeply wanting to talk to them; to get to know all of them. Her mainly shy nature grabbed hold of her though, and chose to walk around by herself, lost in her own thoughts and memories...

"Daddy, where's mommy?" The little girl asked, tugging on her father's trousers. The forlorn man looked down from the cliff at the ocean below. He could still make out the various flower petals floating atop the water in the dying light of the setting sun. His harsh, dark green eyes filled with tears, though he never whimpered or shook. He never sniffled or even really cried, for tears only ran down his face as salty mirrors of his emotion.
"Mommy is...sleeping dear. She's very sick, and she didn't want you to be sick too." The man got down on one knee to look eye-to-eye with his daughter. "But don't worry...you see those stars? Mommy is one of those stars now, and one day, you will be too."
"NO!" She shouted, slamming her hands into her father's shoulders in frustration, "Wake her up, daddy! Please! Wake her up now..." She fell into the arms of her father, sobbing uncontrollably.
"It's okay. I'm here Mikado...I'm here. It's going to be okay. Everything...is going to be okay..." He whispered into the girl's ear. On that same spot, they stood in the same position until the sun rose again...

Whiping away persperation from the intense heat of the sands, Mikado sat in a shady spot, waiting for...what? Waiting for a new start with a new life mate? Waiting to walk off the sands depressed?...either way, she knew not. She only knew that she had to try...try to be herself, and try not to shroud herself in her past as she had done before...
