Destiny's P.O.V.

I walked across the grassy plains, trying to find where I made it...

There! By that tree.

I sat down to meditate. That was how I saw visions of where I came from... my future.

I opened my eyes in my mind and saw the small memorial I had made for my deceased family.

I made this shortly after I ran away...

"Hi..."

I remembered the songs my mother used to sing to me as I danced around the place with her and my father...

I also remembered the fun times I had here in the past, with Claire, Serenity, Max, Piper, Justin, Ahsoka, Edric, Jersey, Larry, and the others....

And then I cried.

"Why am I still alive... when everyone who loves me has died?" I remember what I did in regards to the deaths I've witnessed. "Why am I still here?! I only ruin everything!" I punched the ground, not even caring about the tears anymore.

"I'M A SELFISH, PATHETIC, ARROGANT JERK CHILD WHO NEVER DESERVED TO BE BORN!"

I saw something sharp... the tool I used to plant the memorial.

"Maybe I can fix everything... if I only eliminate myself here and now..."

I picked up the sharp metal.

"Destiny Crystalia Skylis... goodbye."

3rd Person P.O.V.

When Destiny stabbed herself, she screamed. But not in pain.

"WHY CAN'T I JUST DIE?!" She took it out and stabbed herself again a couple times. It seemed to go right through her. "WHY?!?!" She threw the metal and it bounced off the tree, coming right back at the girl. She gasped in shock and ducked to avoid getting hit, not sure if it'll actually kill her this time.

We see the piece of metal land in the ground. And something white was stuck in it. Destiny then saw herself in a watery-like mirror on the tree...

It sliced off her braids... and her eyes were a dark red.

Destiny gasped and her eyes flew open. She was back in the past world. No metal pieces, no memorial, no sliced off hair, no dark red eyes.

It was all a vision...

"Why can I never undo my mistakes...?"

~~~~~~~~~~

This scene will have a special place in my heart...

And my SAMTBK Hamilton reference book.

I have an idea for that now.

But poor Destiny is going through the unimaginable...

I'm not even sure I should elaborate any more on her past.

That's it.

Bye.
