Violet
It was a sharp sensation, like a hook catching behind my ribs and tugging me forward. I gasped when I felt it again, clutching my chest as I leaned forward.
What was that?!
I looked up at the sky. I didn't know why, but I felt it had to do with… it.
The sun was still partially visible behind the clouds, but something was wrong with it. The edge looked strange, like something was beginning to obscure it. A faint darkness creeping across its surface.
The eclipse was starting.
'Was that it?'
As I watched that first strip of shadow cross the sun, the pull in my chest intensified, becoming impossible to ignore.
My heart ached as I felt the sharp tug, followed by a slow thrum of my syzygy under my skin. It felt like something was trying to pull me from the inside out, dragging me toward... somewhere.
I clutched my chest tighter, hunching forward as I tried to resist it.
But the pull only grew stronger.
