Rain drops.

[christian cutie danni]

Rain drops. Simple rain drops. Something so insignificant to all. Just little drops of water. Yet, they aren't insignificant at all. They bring life. To plants, to animals, to humans. They refresh the streams and the earth. They cause growth. And they are part of life. It's amazing, how 1 drop of water, can cause life. Yet they can also cause death.



Alixandria walked into the open meadow. It was raining, and she loved that. Even though it was lightning and thundering as well. Soon it would turn into a full blown storm. Good. That's what she wanted. The perfect night for a storm. The perfect night. "Thank you God, for rain!" She said spinning. Then she lay down in the feild, soaking up the water. She was rejuvenating her self, as the flowers were. Alixandria fell asleep, in the rain. When she woke up, the sun was out, and it was morning. She woke up and there was no rainbow. The water, she was laying in water! She scrambled up. She started to walk to the stream. As she walked, the water got deeper, and deeper. Then she aprroached the village. She was swimming in 8 foot water by then. She gasped as she saw the village. It was flooded. There were people floating all around.

Ali climbed ontop of a roof. Most every one was dead. From what she could see, this village was beyond a mirical. Ali started to cry. And as she did, it began to rain again, raising the water level.

((Hmmm... sounds pretty interesting so far...))

((May I join the fun? What's the deal with the plot/story and characters?))

Ruyka was soaked. She, like everyone else, had not been in any way prepared for the flood that had so quickly and violently come upon their village. Fortunately, she was one of the lucky ones who made to higher ground in time. Well, higher ground meaning the tallest tree she could climb when it started raining the night before.
Ruyka continued thanking God as she made her way down the tree and found a log floating by, which she promptly jumped on. She thanked God for her life, she thanked God for the ones that had been spared, she thanked God for caring for the souls that were now with Him. Amidst the death and desruction, Ruyka couldn't think of anything else to do.
As she tried to maintain her balance on the log, she spotted movement ahead of her. It was a figure on top of the roof of one of the few still-standing houses. Once she got closer, Ruyka immediately recognized it as her good friend Ali.
"Ali! Are you all right? It's me, Ruyka!" she shouted, while waving her arms and trying not to fall off the log.

((This is a character I made for a different RPG, but she's going to be motified slightly for this world (mostly just with history a little and whatnot). I hope it's okay that they're friends right off the bat. It was the only way I could think of to bring her in. *nervous smile*))

((fine by me! lol...)) Ali smiled a slight smile. "Hi! Your still okay! I'm so happy." She said waving back. She reached out and grabbed Ruyka as she floated closer, then pulled her onto the roof. "So...?" She asked serveying the damage. "Are we the only ones for miles, that survived.?" The rain was still pouring. Ali sighed, and tried to shake some water from her hair, but since it was still pouring, she couldn't really manage that.

"Thanks!" Ruyka said, climbing onto the roof with her friend.
She tried to look through the rain to see if she could find anyone else. It was coming down pretty hard, though, making it hard to see any sort of long distance.
"I don't know. My guess would be that either there are no more survivors, or there are others who tried swimming to higher ground of soem sort." she observed, shrugging slightly, "I think the more important question here would be: what are we going to do?"
Ruyka tried to find an easy access off of the roof. That wasn't going to happen.
"It hasn't rained like this for I don't know how many years. What's causing it so happen so suddenly like this?" she asked, attempting to grab debris that came floating by, in an effort to find a way off the rooftop.

Kami's lungs were burning, dying to breathe the needed oxygen that was somewhere above her head. All she could hear was the loud thunder of the fast moving water. Kami was swimming hard in the direction that she thought was up. Earlier she slipped off the boulder she was clinging to. The smooth gray lifeline was overtaken by the murky water, and she started a fight that she probably couldn't win. For the past 10 minutes she had been fighting for her life. Being sucked under by the current and fighting for every precious breath she took. Reaching the top of the water she gasped for breath, screamed for help, and was suddenly took under again. On her next attempt for air, her flailing hand caught someone elses. The strong hand lifted her onto a rooftop that has surprisingly not caved-in from the force of the water. Kami sputtered and coughed laying on her stomach, her short blue hair clinging to the back of her neck.

((hi kelly...to add to this story do i type here???...im stupid i know this....))

kami looked up as she saw too girls heavily breathing from their hard worked acomplishment of pulling her out of the water. she was so greatfull but she couldnt push words out of her mouth to say anything. She was dizzy and even though the dirty water was cold she felt heat flash threw her body. her portray of the two girls was like a broken video recorder, missing scenes but random shots of what was happening. they rolled her from on her stomach to a lying postion and she faintly could hear their voices telling her it would be okay. Ali and Ruyka stared onto Kami's blank eyes praying she would be okay. seconds came and went, and finnaly Kami was able to sit up. she stared onto the rushing water that was once a road and her eyes widened like she had no idea what was happeing. Ali bent down " its ok, your safe. my name is Ali, this is Ruyka...can you talk...? Kami took a deep breath and tried to shake into reality as she heard herslef sputter her name. "Ok, Kami..." said Ruyka "you look kind of pale...we have to find higher ground, can you get up?"

((just a heads up, I don't mind too much, but other's may, you don't want to controll their characters! Just to let you know, I don't want you getting yelled at in the futre, some people aren't very nice about stuff like that! ))

"Are you okay?" Ali asked, looking down at Kami worriedly.

crystal looked out from the tree, she wished the rain would stop. she pushed her clear hair from her face, her clear eyes staring out into the rain.

an elfs head broke thru the suface of the water, he smiled as the rain hit his face, his blue hair floating in the water. he looked around but his eyes weren't as good out of water, so he couldn't see very far thanks to all the rain. he swam back under water looking for more unforcenet people stuck under water still a live.

 

[christian cutie danni]

Ali saw something blue. "Is that?" She gasped. "Hello out there?!" She called. She smiled, wondering if that was a water elf.

 

[Legolas The Jedi Master]

the elf reapped at the surface, "some one call?" he called out.

 

[christian cutie danni]

"Are you okay?" She asked worriedly.

 

[Legolas The Jedi Master]

"I'm fine, I'm a water elf. you need help?"

 

[christian cutie danni]

Ali shook her head. "Not that I know of." She looked over at the poor half drowned elf. "Well, unless you can don something about her." She said nudging her with a foot.

Chamee peeked at the odd group. From the looks of it, she had better not disturb them. She quietly leaped from roof to roof until she was a short distance away from them.

 

[christian cutie danni]

((eh, interesting smilee... lol))

 

[Legolas The Jedi Master]

the elf climbed up on the roof, and grabbed her then dove underwater, a bit later they reapered only thins time the girl seemed to be doing a bit better, the elf put the girl on the roof, "she should be okay, she got some water in her lungs."

 

[swordkitty]

Chamee gasped. 'Whoa, elves!" she murmured excitedly.

Cystal wanted to go and help but in this heavy rain it was hard to fly, she was still young and wasn't a very strong flyer yet, but she couldn't just sit in the tree all day could she? she sighed and jumped out it looked almost as if she was diving into the water but at the last second she pulled up and flew over to the group on the roof top and landed. "you'll all die if you stay here, the water is rising fast." the water elf nodded.
