A Fading Hope Chapter 7

A Fading Hope: Chapter Seven: Writing on the wall

Song- Angel of Darkness

(Chorus)
Angel Of Darkness
Angel Of Darkness
The World Is In Your Hand
But I Will Fight Until The End
Angel Of Darkness
Angel Of Darkness
Don't Follow Your Command
But I Will Fight
And I Will Stand

The Love Is Lost
Beauty And Light
Have Vanished From Garden Of Delight
The Dreams Are Gone
Midnight Has Come
The Darkness Is Our New Kingdom
Yeah,Yeah


Chorus

Now Realize The Stars They Die
Darkness Has Fallen In Paradise
But We'll Be Strong And We Will Fight
Against The Creatures Of The Night
Chorus


This one I've liked for a few years now, I first came across it in a youtube video for Warrior cats.  I thought it worked- understanding that dark is coming, that there's something very bad, but a determination to fight it.
yeah.

Story-
So, like I said last week' if you're lucky.' you were lucky. me, not so much. I had intended to write during the three hours between my bus ride and flight home.... my flight was to leave at three. so I write till then, and packed everything up, and waited. and waited.
and then got the notebook out and kept writing, because we didn't leave until quarter past 7.
And then there was an unplanned fuel stop.
It was a mess, but there was a really nice old lady next to me, and we talked for a while, and she was really cool. She kinda kept me sane, and gave me some food so I could take my meds on time. :)
but yeah, I was supposed to me hom at 4 CA time... and we landed at 9:30. 
Last time I fly Allegiant Air.

Anyway, onto the story.
So I wrote and I wrote and I wrote, and it all just seemed to flow. I thought I did a fair job involving all the digimon this time around. I usually have to edit them in, but not this time, so I was proud of that.
I was worried, a bit, that there was too much telling, too much talking, not enough action or story, but..I think it turned out alright.
I was particularly proud of my little throw away line aout the locker- I got the idea from the background lines in season 2 episode 13, about a missing locker and swimming pool and jelly donuts. meh. I hope it made you giggle. It made me giggle.

Also, I listened to a lot of music while writing, mostly the instrumental bits mentioned earlier. 

So, what did you all think of the Prophecy? that gave me a fair bit of trouble! I wanted it to be vague enough, for plot point reasons as well as so the kids would be confused a bit, but also clear enough for you to understand it, more or less. The Irish and Tolkien bits (Crestoflight3, you got it!) were stand ins for runes that Izzy couldn't translate at all, and the blanks were what he hadn't yet gotten- hew picked out what he could and was about to start on the rest when( oh, no, I'm not telling you!)
This was, by the way, what Devimon meant from the Prologue.

Again, I'd like to thank everyone for all their kind words, they really do mean the world to me.

  1. Happy August 1st! Today is the best day for Digimon-related things, right? Maybe I'll write something. Nah...oh, well, I had intentions, but I think I'll just be dull today.

    Anyway. I really did enjoy this chapter, though I'm missing Izzy--you write him so well, it's strange not seeing him as part of a chapter. Okay, he's part of it, but he's kind of missing, so not really. Ahem.

    Yay! I got the foreign words right! *happy dance* I dunno, today's a good day for happy dances, right? Sorry, I'm hyper right now. Though you wouldn't be able to tell by just looking at me. I only get hyper when I type. Ahem...

    I'm sorry about the delay with the plane. Nobody likes to be stuck someplace. But I'm glad you're home again, and that you managed to find time to write even though the situation probably made you want to scream instead.
