Title: "The White Garden"

Chapter 2-Journey

She has to leave.  This place is too depressing.  She feels the wind tugging her someplace else.  I do not belong here.  So she plans. 

One particular day, she rummages through the accumulations of rubble.  Out of the corner of her eye, she notices a shimmer.  She reaches for the shimmer and pulls out a glistening sharp object.  When she holds it up to light, colors stream out from it.  Astounded by the object, she pockets it. 

The next morning, she leaves.  It takes a long time because the parts of the trail are covered in debris.  But she knows she must keep going.

After hours have passed by, she feels warm sand under her feet that replaced the remnants of destruction.  She knows she has made it so she lifts her head and sees a golden light fading beyond the horizon.  The light is comforting and familiar.  

Night falls and she sleeps.  She dreams of the golden light and a voice calling to her.  Ray.
