I was with mizu sitting on a rock looking at the sunset as the ocean hit my feet and mizu's tail

I looked over at him and smiled softly
"my mother loved the ocean." I softly said looking out at the ocean

knowing that he was looking at me
"really, is that where you got your love for the ocean from.." he said looking at me

I smiled softly nodding my head
"we'd come out and watched the beautiful sunset turn into the dazzling sky full of stars."

I softly smiled looking at him.
The wind blew softly moving my hair to the side waving with the cooling air

"is she alive?" mizu asked
I widened my eyes, gently looked down, and shook my head no

he looked at me with guilt and placed his hand on my head

"im sorry, I shouldn't have asked.." he gently said

I smiled softly "its fine, If you want to know what happened...ill gladly tell you." I softly said

he widened his eyes "are you sure?" he asked worried

I smiled and nodded my head
"the day she died..."

*in the past*

I giggled as I played with my bunny and my wand in the living room
as my mother cooked supper humming a song as a soft smiled was plastered on her face

she walked into the living room placing a plate of food in front of me and picked me up
placing me in her lap gently

"hurry up and eat, so we can go and see the ocean again." she gently said holding me

I nodded my head as I eat the nicely cooked dinner and I smiled at the rich taste

soon enough I finished my dinner and we got dressed
on our way to the ocean she held my hand gently with her soft smile across her face

we soon passed and alley way and suddenly I was grabbed and dragged in

i widened my eyes and yelled for my mother.

she ran to the alley to see me in the arms of a man with three other men behind him and the man holding me had a silver knife pressed against my neck

she stood there looking at the with narrowed eyes
i was shaking wanting to be near her the two men went up to her and kicked her knees causing her to fall and the men kicked her in the stomach constantly

i widen my eyes and bit the man making him drop me and i ran to my mother crying

she looked up at me with her gentle smile but she widened her eyes once she saw a gun pointed straight at me

in a swift movement she jumped out in front of me and took the bullet to her heart

she fell quietly to the ground i yelled as i ran to her
she looked up at me and smiled gently cupping my face and tears poured out of my eyes

and she gently and softly whispered something to me, i ran away crying and i ran to the ocean and sat on a rock crying but without me knowing blue gentle eyes stared at me

*present time*

tears poured down my face as they hit the sand and my body trembled

mizu stared at me with wide eyes and hugged me close to him

"im...so sorry that happened." he gently said

more tears streamed down my face as i hug him back

"i-its ok.."i gently said looking at the sky and the words she said to me ringed in my ears and i smiled closing my eyes gently

"Live for me, live for the ocean,....live for mizu."
