The wind blew and her hair blew with it, as agile as swaying grass. She found herself in an all too familiar surrounding. Leaves blew past her slowly, directionless. I come here too often. But she couldn't help it. She just found this place so so addicting. The sweet smell of sap pouring from the trees was just too intoxicating to her sensitive nostrils. A wave of dread washed over her. I don't want to go back. She didn't want to return to that place where she couldn't be herself. Where she had to pretend that she was normal, pretend that she didn't know how and when they would die, pretend that she loved them more than the others. Her eyes closed slowly. A deep inhale, followed by a relaxing exhale blew from her mouth, being carried away by the flowing wind. Her heartbeat steadied and she focused her powers. Calmly. Softly. Her eyes opened. The wind had ceased. Leaves hung in mid air. Still. Lifeless. Just like her. Just like the life that used to be hers. She watched them, just hanging there exactly like she willed them to. Her eyes began to water. There more she thought about the leaves, the more she wanted to disappear. A single tear fell, taking with it any hope of returning to a life long gone.
