When Darkness Falls (A Shadow love story & "A Sharlett" story)

Chapter 3: Showers & Tears

Scarlett's P.O.V

I looked at Zhadow who was gesturing for me to walk into the restroom. I looked around the room trying to get use to the illusions of the future characteristics it gave off.

The room was big, with two queen sized beds, one on the left and the other on the right along with a desk and an Xbox! It was for training.

"Welcome Zhadow the hedgehog." A women's voice spoke as we entered the restroom. It had two sinks one black (on the left) and one white (on the right), along with a hot tub and a shower that was surrounded by glass walls in the center of the bathroom. But what really caught my eye was the sight of two black doors which looked like the ones that we stopped at before.

Zhadow walked up to the doors while I stayed behind watching at what he was doing, "Scarlett?" He called out wanting me to come along his side. He than put in a code on a miniature computer that was outside the doors.

The doors than swung open while lights flashed on. Zhadow than walked in grabbing my hand and pulled me inside with him.

As soon as we walked in the room, it had been surrounded by multiple clothes everywhere, along with gadgets. The closet was as big as their room.

Hypnotized by the astonishment, he handed me black high waisted shorts, a black leather jacket, followed by black coded boots, red fighting gloves, a red tank top, a red tong and bra which had a black lining on the top of each garment. "I suppose this is more, of your style?" He asked with a smirk written across his face.

I blushed as my eyes turned corral pink. "Yeah." I said taking the clothes off his hands. I had been wearing a dirty white dress this whole time. I wondered how he even suspected this was my type of style.

He quickly handed me two very soft red towels and pushed a red button which turned off the lights in the closet. We both quickly walked out of the closet and into the restroom once again.

"Okay well I'll let you be, that's all you'll need." He spoke. I giggled by the rhyme he processed while he giggled back with a smile that seemed more pleased.

"Th-...thank you...." I spoke respectfully. He took a quick glance at me and nodded, "Your Welcome." He smiled.

He quickly walked out the restroom. I waited a while and glanced into the mirror where the black sink laid. I thought about how much weight I had lost from all these months of starvation.

A song quickly popped into my head as I slowly pushed my dress out through my head. For some reason this song was always on my mind, but I never really knew why...

(Song: "Rain" By: Breaking Benjamin)

I slowly started humming the beat to the song while I started taking off my under garments.

"Take a PhotoGraph,

It'll be the last,

Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here."

As I finished stripping my bra off my chest I headed toward the shower and turned on the water while testing the warmth of the coldness of the water with my finger tips.

"I don't have a past,

I just have a chance,

Not a family or honest plea remains to say."

As I felt the water boiling, I stepped into the shower while the water hit my fair skin which gave by the way gave me goosebumps.

"Rain, rain go away,

Come again another day,

All the world is waiting for the sun."

As the water was hitting my face and dripping down my breast, I thought about how much dirt that had fallen off my body. It was the best feeling in like forever.

"Is it you I want,

Or just the notion,

Of a heart to wrap around

So I can find my way around."

As I looked around for shampoo, I saw many girl products and wondered why they had so many different products in their restroom and clothes; I pushed the thought out of my head and began my process of getting cleaned.

Still singing I grabbed a shampoo bottle and pushed the nozzle for the liquidity substance to fall onto my hand. It was liquifying and it felt good to feel it once again on my palm. I scrubbed the soap around my hair and brushed it down.

"Safe to say from here,

Your getting closer now,

We are never sad

Cause we are not allowed to be,

RAIN, RAIN go away,

Come again another day

All the world is waiting for the sun!"

Rain, rain go away,

Come again another day,

All the world is waiting for the sun."

As I finished washing all the shampoo off I looked around for a conditioner bottle and found one that had the scent of coconuts. As I opened the lid I squeezed the bottle and rubbed the conditioner down my quills and brushed it down. It was so smooth and refreshing to have it all over my head and body. I than scrubbed some body wash all over my body.

"To lie here under you,

Is all that I can ever do,

To lie here under you Is all,

To lie here under you,

Is all that I can ever do,

To lie here under you is all"

As all the conditioner had washed off, and body wash, I turned off the water and opened the fogged up glass doors. I couldn't really see the view, all I saw was fog coming out of the shower door entrance.

"Rain, rain go away,

Come again another day,

All the world is waiting for the sun...

Rain, rain go away,

Come again another day,

All the world is waiting for the sun."

I found the towel Zhadow had loaned me hanging on a silver hook that had been attached to the wall and wrapped the towel around my body, while I wrapped the other one around my hair. Still foggy and mystical, I managed to find my way to the foggy mirror and wiped it down with my palm. Looking back at my reflection I began to finish singing the rest of the song.

"All the world is waiting for the sun,

All the world is waiting for the 'Sun'..."

I thought about those last 8 words I sung, and began to tear up from the thought of sunlight. "Sigh." I sighed trying to hold back the tears that flowed out my eyes. My eyes quickly turned into their blue state color that was caused by my sadness.

The fog than began to appear again on the same spot, still showing my palm print. I looked away from the mirror and wiped the tears that flowed out of my eyes.

I finally began to put on the clothes Zhadow had loaned me.

'What am I going to say when I get out of here?....
