The hummingbird.


The wind rushed past me as my tiny wings fluttered rapidly. The scenery blurred past as I pushed myself faster and faster. The sense of freedom was breathtaking!
A delicious smell caught my attention, making me come to a sudden stop in front of this beautiful, red flower. It smelled fresh and new.
I tilted my head down and tasted the sweet, smooth nectar. I drank slowly to enjoy the drink.
Lifting my head back up I looked around me. This place was full of color and so vibrant! Like someone had painted this garden for me!
I zoomed through the air once again, wanting to see everything!
The anticipation and excitement made my body quiver, I closed my eyes to enjoy my new found addiction.
Then suddenly, I ran head first into something. It was flat and firm but not hard. Warmth surround me as a pair if hands held my close to the obstacle. I looked up and was met with bright blue orbs.
They were eyes, smiling ones at that! I tilted my head back to get a better view.
It looked to be a man. A man with sun kissed skin and blonde hair that came across his forehead. His lips were plump and seemed to be smiling at me as well.
He reached with his other hand and began to stroke my thingy chest gently. I attempted to purr but it came out as a hum, the same sound my wings seemed to make. I quickly began to beat my wings, feeling antsy and wanting to see more.
The man laughed softly as he watched me fly away to explore more of the garden. Before I left I heard him say very softly, "I shall call you the Hummingbird. For you make a humming sound as you happily fly."
Hummingbird? How wonderful! I was finally named! From now on, me and the generations after shall hum happily with our wings as we fly! Just to show that we are please with what we are.



The end.

 

Yay!! EVA im glad you wrote.. i think mine may be too long..

 

This is not a vote. I liked Augustas! ^.^

 

We called her the Hummingbird.

Don't ask me why. I'm not sure either. I always had a weird obsession with birds. I also fell in love with her.

Maybe they called her the Hummingbird because she just couldn't stay still. She'd always be bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet to some unknown beat.

Or maybe it was those tuneless tunes that she hummed constantly. The tunes that were bright and happy. The tunes that were dark and sorrowful. The tunes that made you want to laugh and cry at the same time.

The tunes that made you want more.

The tunes that made you fall in love.

But it doesn't matter what they called her, does it? It doesn't matter, how they justify it, or see it, or reason with it.

Because she's dead.

 

wrote it after youth...
SAH TIREDDDDDDDDDDDDD

 

Bump. Because yeah.....GENSOKYO FTW <3

 

The Humming Bird

There she was, sitting by herself watching the couples in the school dance on the dance floor having the time of their lives. She asked herself," why do I have to go to this stupid dance? I'm not having any fun and I hate school dances."
Then she sees Kiren Braxton, the most popular and respected guy in my school. Jane had a huge crush on him for as long as she could remember, but he always had a girlfriend. Jane sighed and picked at her slice of cake. Suddenly, she felt the heat of someones eyes on me, she looked up only to see Keith Eaton looking in my direction. Jane turned around to see if he was looking at someone behind me but there was no one there. She turned to see if he was still looking but he was gone. Jane said,"That was odd.. but he couldn't possibly be looking at me."
She shrugged and went back to picking at her cake, taking out the strawberries. Moments later she heard a voice behind her,"Hey there.. I couldn't help but notice that you were the only one here that is sitting alone. Do you mind if I sit with you?"
Jane looked at him and casually said,"Why not? It's a free country." In her mind she was thinking 'why on earth would Keith,the second hottest guy in this school,is talking to me? I'm a nobody..'
He looked at my outfit and said,"That's a good look for you,Jane."
She was uninterested in his cruel jokes,"uhm.. sure. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be dancing with..." I almost gagged at the mention of her name, "Emily?" She gestured towards the dance floor where Emily was grinding against another guy,"Ooor not? What happened, not that I really care, but aren't you like the ideal couple in this school?"
He shrugged and leaned back in his chair before saying,"Eh.. She was being her snobby, demanding self this morning and I just couldn't take it." He started to immitate her voice,"Keith!! Where is this?! Keith!! Where is that?! Keith! you slob pick that up! Keith! Stop breathing so loudly you are giving me a headache!!"
Jane laughed and said,"yikes... a certain couple is no longer in the honeymoon phase.. why did you agree to go out with her in the first place? Besides the fact that she has pretty big breasts.."
He ran his fingers through his hair and said, "That's not why.. She wasn't always the wicked witch of the west. She used to be a sweet, kind person. She changed.. Anyways, I've had my eye on someone else." He placed his hand on Janes and gently rubbed her knuckles while he looked into her eyes.
"Oh.. who?" She tried to act natural. Jane just couldn't help but melt under his gaze with those beautiful light blue eyes.
He laughed and said,"you're funny. That's one of the things... "
Before he could finish they were interrupted by Emily,who was now standing infront of them along with her clique of popular girls. "Keith, you two timing jerk!!,"she yelled,"why the hell are you hanging out with this skank?!"
"Woah. Emily, calm down. I broke up with you remember and you dont have the right to say that about Jane. You don't even know her," Keith defended.
Jane stood up and said,"No.. it's fine. I'll just go."
Keith grabbed her hand and pleaded," No Jane, please just wait.."
"Yeah Jane wait," Emily picked up her cake and threw it on her face," Now your face goes with your outfit."
One of the girls beside her added,"Don't forget the toppings." She laughed and threw a few strawberries on Jane's face. The whole group started to laugh and so did Kiren ,who saw Emily throw cake on her.
Jane immediately ran out of the gym wiping cake off her face and Emily grabbed Keith's hand saying,"Come on baby, let's dance. I'm going to forget that you held hands with that freak."
He pulled his hand away and said,"No Emily. I told you we are done."
She glared at him,"It's not over until I say it's over. Now come on they are playing my favorite song."
Keith stepped back," You know what.. thank you.. Thank you for showing me your true self. You are nothing but a heartless,shallow, Bitch!"
He got up and walked towards the exit, but Kiren was there and stopped him. "Hey Eaton, are you going to the party after this? There is going to be cheerleaders and hot babes. So what do you say?"
Keith was busy thinking about where Jane would be so he just said,"Yeah whatever man. Text me the place." He walked past Kiren and went straight to the parking lot looking for her. Keith saw Jane sitting on the bench writing in her note book. He sat down next to her and asked,"Hey, are you ok?"
She said,"yeah. Nothing better than the feeling of cake on your face."
"Look im really sorry about that. I don't know why she did that but it was so uncool," he said as he got some cake out of her hair.
"Just forget it. I knew going to this dance was a mistake,"she moved his hand away and got the cake out herself.
A beep went off and he checked his cell phone," dang... seriously Kiren?"
She looked at keith and asked,"What's wrong?"
He laughed and said,"It's nothing serious. Just the place he chose for the party tonight. It's at the old abandoned house where that family was murdered."
Janes eyes widened and she asked,"the Griffin house?!"
Keith chuckled and said,"yeah. That's the one. Wanna come? Don't worry Emily wont be there. She is scared of that place."
"You should be scared too. That place is haunted."
"Haunted?? You really believe in that stuff?"
"Why not? I did research, a handful of reporters and police officers were brutally murdered there."
"That could have been some psychopathic serial killer hiding out there. Come on Jane go to this party with me."
She looked at him and said," fine fine.. I'll go to your lame party."
"Yes!! Woo!! Okay so do you have a car?"
"No the people I carpooled with left to have some 'alone time' if you know what I mean."
"Oh haha. I know what you mean. But that means I get to take you home," he grinned.
Jane laughed and said," You better not ditch."
"Me.. leave you?? I would never. "
Keith walked Jane to the car, got in the drivers seat and started it up,"Next stop.. party!! "
* * * * * *
(30 minutes later at the Griffin house)
Keith got out of the car and opened the door for her. Jane got an examined the house carefully."It's so old and creepy looking. Why would you wanna throw a party here?" she asked.
He closed the door and locked the car," Insecure girls equals a better chance for guys to get laid. Especially for Kiren and Vin. They can easily get a three some in places like this."
Jane laughed and walked into the house with Keith. She looked around and saw less people than she thought would be there and said,"this party looks dead."
"I guess it was just a small get together. There are some cheerleaders here," Keith said and shrugged.
Kiren walked up to us and said,"Eaton.. glad you could make it. You too cake girl. We are telling scary stories by the fire. I hope you have a good one. So far all I've heard was hairdos,facials and manicures gone wrong." He took a sip of his beer and led them to the circle.
Jane walked behind Keith. "Great.. I guess Emily knew Keith would be here,"she muttered to herself as she sat down next to him.
Emily looked at Jane with her piercing glare and said,"well freak. It's your turn to say a scary story. Oh wait your whole life is scary. It will probably be hard to pick a certain moment in your life to tell us."
Keith glared at Emily and she just shrugged. Then he added," I'm sure Jane has a good story for us." He looked at Jane with sorry eyes.
Jane ignored Emily's comment and said,"as a matter of fact I do. It's about this very house that we are in."
"A year ago there was a family that lived in this house, the Griffin family. There was; Dave,the husband, Angela,the wife, and they had a little boy named Josh. Mary loved humming birds, so she had paintings,statues,and even jewelry of them. One day on their anniversary Dave surprised Angela with a real living humming bird he managed to get from a friend. Angela loved it so much. She would take it everywhere with her in the house. She would always take to it, feed it and even sing it a lullaby at night before she goes to bed. Josh got insanely jealous that her mother never had time for him anymore all because of that one little bird. He knew what he had to do to get his mother all to himself again. A few weeks later when Angela went to the store to buy some groceries, she left Josh home with Dave. Dave was fast asleep on the couch infront of the t.v. Josh went to the humming birds cage, picked it up and snapped it's neck. When his mother came home, she found it dead and cried all day long. Josh tried to comfort her but nothing he did worked, so he gave up and went to play in his room. The next day his mother stopped crying, all she did was hum while she washed the dishes. Josh watched his mother and something didn't seem right about her. She was drinking nectar juice and moved rather fast. Josh stood in the kitchen doorway and asked,'mommy.. are you okay? '
His mom turned around slowly and said,'I'm fine sweety. Oh did you see my bird?' She stepped out if the sun light and he could see her neck was bent in an awkward position as if it was broken. She lunged at him and got a hold of her son, then she wrapped her hands around his neck and twisted. Josh was dead,she ripped open his stomach and started eating his insides. Dave looked at her and said,'what the hell are you done?!' Rage came over him and he got up, grabbed a nearby knife and stabbed his wife. Dave knew what the police would think when they saw the dead bodies and he couldn't live without his family, So Dave killed himself. And the house has been haunted eversince." Jane leaned back looking at the expression of everyone around her and she got the reaction she wanted. Emily was cowering behind Vin who had a scared look in his eyes. Keith had to leave in the middle of the story to get more beer. A bunch of cheerleaders left because they were creeped out by the story and the house.
Emily sat up and said with a shakey voice,"t..that's not scary at all..."
Jane looked at her and said,"well if it isn't scary. Lets play a game of hide and seek."
A wind ran through the house and the front door slammed shut. Emily screamed. Kiren laughed and said,"Awesome.. that was actually scary."
The candle lights flickered and Kiren disappeared. Emily screamed again and Vin tried to calm her down. Suddenly, we heard a light humming sound come from the kitchen. Emily screamed once again and ran for the door. She tripped on a floorboard and fell on an exposed metal bar that was sticking out of the floor. Blood seeped from the hole im her throat, she struggled a little and stopped moving. Jessica, Emily's best friend, screamed at the top of her lungs.
Jessica ran to the front door and tried to leave but the door was somehow held shut. She banged on the door and yelled,"help!! Hello?! Is someone out there??"
Vin tried to calm her down and he noticed Kiren was missing. He asked,"did anyone see where Kiren went?"
Jane guessed, "I don't know. Ill try up stairs." She was standing at the bottom of the stairs looking into the darkness.
Jane slowly walked upstairs with a flash light in hand.
As soon as she disappears, everyone hears a light humming come from above. Jessica panics and holds onto Vin. Vin wraps his arms around her and says,"It's going to be okay.."
Jessica looks up and sees a pool of blood on the ceiling. She screams,the ceiling and kirens body falls but he doesnt hit the floor. He was being held up by his ripped out intestines.
Jane ran down stairs and saw the body. She gasped and broke into a little sob.
Jessica looked at me and vin,then said,"we need to get out of here.. or else we all die."
Vin said,"yeah but how? The exits are locked."
We hear another musical hum, this hum sounded more sadistic and evil. Jessica whimpered and Jane shined the flash light around seeing if anyone was there. Jessica screamed as she was being dragged into the kitchen. Vin tried to pull her back but he fell and Jane went to help him up.
It was silent as they headed to the kitchen all they heard was a whimpering. Then before they got there they heard a snap and a thud came after. They ran and Jessica was laying on the floor,her head was rolling towards them. Jane kicked the head away,took vins hand and ran to the living room.
Then the humming sound started again one of them was going to be next. They hugged and the sound surrounded them. Suddenly there came a rattling sound from the door, as if someone was trying to get in. Since the door didnt budge, there was a bang. Then another following it, someone came crashing through the door. It was Keith.
Keith saw Emily's dead body and said,"oh my god. What the hell happened?! " He knelt by her body and a tear ran down his cheek. He looked up at us but saw Kiren's dead body hanging. "What the fuck??! What happened here?"
The humming sounds returned and Jane yelled,"Let's get out of here."
Vin grabbed Keith by the arm and ran to the car. Jane stayed for a little bit and put a pin of a humming bird on Kirens jacket. She smirked at Emily's dead body and said," You deserved to die. I'm just sad I wasn't the one who killed you."
Jane laughed," oh yeah. I forgot to mention. The Griffins had a daughter. While her parents were killing each other I was upstairs crying my eyes out until a little humming bird fed me,cared for me and saved me. I lured all those cops and reporters here. Luring all of you here was easy."
Jane left the house and got in the car with Vin and Keith. They went to the police, told their story and it ended up on the news. A few weeks later Vin checked into a mental institute because all he could hear was the sound of a humming bird. Keith asked Jane out and they became the new school power couple. She became a somebody but she didn't care about anyone else other than her new lover.


The End

"The Hummingbird: Lullaby."

As I fall into my abyss of mental despair, or as normal people would call "dreaming", I realized one thing: That my dreams would bring a beginning to my reality. My vision faded into nothing, as my barely working mind began to throw abstract expressions and pictures at me. The meaning of them, I don't know. But one of the pictures was a small little bird. I didn't know remember the name of it, but I felt as though it grew larger as it fluttered towards me. And it did.

As all of the other pictures faded away, the bird did not fade, but only grew more pigmented, more stronger. Was this my way home? I chuckled at myself in my sleep. I must have been an idiot or something, to believe that something so light, so beautiful, would bring me into the warm light with it. Then, all of a sudden, I was lifted upon its blue fading into black wings and hoisted into the air. I was being carried, but to where?

I studied the bird for a moment, then I did not care where we were going, I just wanted to keep going. But I started hearing noises, what is it called, music in the background. So loving, so peaceful. The music began to twirl around the bird and I, creating abstracts of the real world I'd soon journey to. Mellow creeks in spring, picnics and walks in the summer, watching the colors of leaves change in the fall, then...the silence and cold of loved ones leaving in the winter. Though I realized, that pain is part of the circle of life, I was ready to endure it.

What's going on? Everything's shaking! There's crying in the background, but there's no tears on my face. Then I heard three unrecognizable voices. A lady's, a man's, and another lady's voice, but it seemed younger. Then more shaking and I tried to hold onto the bird, feeling something vibrating in it's throat, and I looked at it. Being vulnerable for just a split moment, my grasp on the bird loosened and the shaking became worse, knocking me off my perch on my feathered friend. I did not fear though for anything that might happen, but I did miss my friend.

I force myself to look down as I'm falling, slowly, then I feel myself being jerked back a bit. I keep falling. Jerk, fall, jerk, fall....then I see it. A light source which sort of blinds me for a second, then I hear voices again, the voices from earlier. I'm being held and caressed, as I open my eyes to look into the eyes of a lovely young maiden. Her face, so youthful yet mature, so kind and loving, I stared at it so long. Then I heard one word, "Arianna." Was that my new name? I believe it was. I now know I was born, a new baby, but one thing I'd never forget is my old friend and that music. So, I gave some credit to the bird and named the song: "The Hummingbird's Lullaby." Goodbye my old companion, hello to a new unexplored world.
