a Light in the Dark

“I can’t see a thing… Everything is black—just black.
Extending my fingers out in hopes to find some small hint of walls is futile…
I feel like a fool.
Walking blindly through this dark abyss….
But wait! What’s that light that I see? That light so far from my grasp?
…………
The farther I run, the sooner I begin to realize…
That this light I’m so desperately trying to reach is...
Me.”

This picture was a result of a failed attempt. Don’t yah just love it when that happens? Ideas mold into new ones when the other shoots out the window…

CD-chan ( ) tried to help me with my shadows again… XD;; I think that backfired on me too… but the dark shades of the picture actually fit one of the parts in my story.. so.. yyaaayyy!!! *dances.* Thankies CD!!

For those of you who don’t know, this is my character Haven. He’s the main character in my story called F.H. Chronicles!! (The title hasn’t been revealed yet). Anyway.. Let me get to the story behind this picture!

Story behind the picture:
At one point Haven is abducted by the head honcho bad guy, Klavicious I. Due to the boy’s tremendous amounts of potential power… Klavicious must erase Haven’s memories so he can turn him against his friends. The reason for this of course is his friends and older brother mean the world to him… He had already lost so much—what would he do if he were to kill the people he loved so dearly?

So… Haven is lost in this black shadow within the depths of his mind… trying so desperately to find a way out. He can’t remember a lot of his memories (like who he is, where he is, his friends, family, and his mission). One memory that he remembers is a young girl’s face, and she’s standing next to a taller gentlemen, but his face isn’t clear. He tries to search for them in the back of his mind… and that’s when he begins to see a light.

He thinks this light will answer all of his questions.. But when he finally reaches it, he discovers that the only person who can truly save him… is himself.

/End of commentary.

And there you have it. Didn’t want to reveal too much even though I probably did.. XD;; oh well.
