Crystal Heart
A long long time ago, there were humans who carry crystal hearts in their chests. They knew how precious their hearts were so they hid from the world. Just as someone had said, 'No secret can be kept buried and hidden forever'. They were eventually found out by the very world they feared would know of their secret- their crystal hearts and the power they hold. For thousands of years, the people with crystal hearts were being hunted like animals. If one of them was captured, his/her heart would be gouged out from his/her chest by his captors. One could say the crystal hearts were like the spoils of war. The greedy humans were very delighted when their wishes came true through the use of the crystal hearts. Slowly, the bearers of the crystal hearts dwindled. Ah, how cruel the world is to have humans murder one another for what- money, power, fame? How bleak the world has become. Tragic. Humans and beasts. Aren't they just the same? This is the story of the last surviving being with a CRYSTAL HEART. Disclaimer: This is just a really long one shot.Complete
