CitrusBelly

Void touched, that was what they called them, no longer where they the orange strip or citrus belly, but void touched. Striped of their name, their home. Walking day and night with nothing they collapsed upon the mossy ground, tears rolling down their cheeks, why ? why where they are void touched, why must they be cursed with this?

If only they had seen the first spot upon their body then, maybe just then they would have been able to get help, maybe then they would still be at home with their family. So wrapped in their thoughts they failed to hear the sounds of someone approaching.

Slowly glancing up when the moss was removed from their sight and replaced with……with light stary skin.they were met with the most beautiful sight they have ever seen.




Their eyes slipping shut the last sight they saw was the worried eyes, why were they so worried?, they were a void touched, what did they mean with these words?. They wouldn't waken for a while but when they did it was to the sight of a fire, sitting up they looked to them, before they could utter a word the other spoke first.



Nodding they spent that night together learning of each others tale, they would journey together for many years, from strangers to friends to lovers they grew, never bonding fully for no one would dare do the ceremony for them, it was then a year later in **** that they would find an egg abandoned, their little pair had now become a family and Ciruis couldn’t have been any more happier even if the burden of being voided touched was there, they had met their love, their light from the dark.
