Everythig's moving and happening too fast. Before I left for class for the day we got a call from the Fire marshal. He wanted to talk to Me or Brennon. Columbus is cool like that. they understand and are accepting of same sex couples. So Brennon went on my behalf and took Dean and Candy as well. They needed out of the house and we needed to get transcripts so they could transfer to a school up here since they'll be living with us.
We're waiting to hear from the people that mom and dad put a will through or whatever.
We're not sure what we're going to do for a burial whatever. See. The house was flattened. By time we got there it was fully engulfed in flames and crumbling in on itself. Within 30 minutes all that was left was ashes and pools of melted metal and plastic and what have you. Get this though. An average house fire burns as 1000 degrees. It's hot enough to shatter brick, melt metal but it usually can be stopped before that takes place. It takes at least a few hours of burning for everything to be turned to dust like that. A Cremation chamber burns as 1600 degrees and has to burn for 2 hours to completely cremate the human body. The fire that took my parents and the house only lasted maybe 45 minutes to an hour. by time the fire department got there everything was gone. They're opening an investigation and believe it's arson/homicide. (duh?) But I know they won't find anything and will have to close it. Even so, the house was gone in a 45 minutes. the houses across the street and next door had the siding melted. The fire burned much hotter and faster than should have been possible they says. neighbors and witnesses say that it just was sudden they had heard screaming for help and then the whole house ignited. Just burst into flames.
I just feel so sick. So gross and disgusted. We don't even know what we're going to do. All my grandparents on that side are dead of have disowned my parents for their followings. Our family was always Brennon's family. That's where we spend the holiday and everything. I'm just so... lost and confused. I don't even know what to do.
I'm twenty-one years old and my parents are dead. They're gone. It wasn't supposed to be like this. Not like this. they were supposed to see me and Brennon get married. See us be happy. And now... this.
I have to go. I just... I need to start making preparations. We're going to have a wake and we're going to have a ceremony for their journey to the summer land.... I just... did their souls make it? Or... did It eat them....? That's the most troubling part of this whole thing.
I don't know what I'd do without Taben and Ryan here right now. I hope Brennon and Sam and Dean get home soon. I need them.
You've got us still!
ReplyDeleteDude, you honestly don't know how much it means to hear that from you. Even if most of your grouping finds me creepy as all hells.
ReplyDeleteLike Joce said. You've got us. You're our family, too! Even if you are a little creepy. That just makes you awesomer. ;)
ReplyDelete@ Joce and Alyx: Rofl. You guys. I'm glad you're with us.
ReplyDeleteYou've got us too. All six, counting Todd.
I don't know where he is, but I'm sure he'd agree. C:
<3 Branwen
Thanks Guys, really means a lot.
ReplyDeleteAnd last I spoke to Todd he was still searching?
It's not been blocking us off today. which is both a good and bad thing. Good cause we can, like. Talk. Bad because.... well I need to practice with the telepathic bullcrap more caue my head's hurting me.
It's been debated what to practice next. We've decided that I'm going to see about hallowing/proxyfying people. caue at worse, I can turn and use it on other proxies, yeah?
I'm sorry for your loss.
ReplyDelete~~X~~
Thank you X. I don't know you, but thank you for stopping by and randomly and giving condolences. I do appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteAnd screw you Ygg. Just keep safe, man. As always the offer stands, you're always welcome to crash here anytime. Thanks for everything else though.
I was KIDDING. Jeesh. Sorry I have a fucked up sense of humor.
ReplyDelete...Okay...that's weird.
You and I have something in common, Aiden, which is why i had to give my condolences. I may not know your exact pain, but I know some of it.
ReplyDeleteBesides, no one should feel alone in this dark world.
~~X~~
Xirena. . .just a question. You're hair isn't red is it? Please say no.
ReplyDeleteOnly in the right lighting.
ReplyDelete~~X~~
And sorry thought you were serious Ygg. I'm too easy to confuse and stuff right now.
ReplyDeleteAnd Xirena, The world is only dark if you only look at it in the dark.
What is it that we have in common? Color me intrigued.
Hmm. . .no that's not possible you would . . .unless. . .nevermind.
ReplyDeleteThe world has always been dark. It's up to us to bring light into it.
ReplyDeleteAs for what we have in common... You and I are the same age and I know, like you, what loss feels like. And, like you, I have seen something important to me burn away.
~~X~~
Speak, Hellfire. The truth does not present itself to you unless you search for it, ask for it, and claim it for yourself.
ReplyDelete~~X~~
AND you've got all of US new guys! Cheerful face!
ReplyDeleteFair enough Xirena. Everything's learned in time.
ReplyDeleteAnd please Ygg, say whats on your mind, I'm curious.
And thanks Woden. I look forward to having all you on our side. We'll certainly ned it :3
I thought she'd be the other Hatchling that the Excel took away. But that couldn't be true unless something happened to her since then. And reading her Blog it doesn't seem like it's possible. In fact that girl had RED hair. Flat out red. Not read in the right light.
ReplyDeleteI don't see how my blog could tell you very much. I've only posted twice, after all.
ReplyDeleteBut, my hair is the tell-tale factor, I suppose. I've always been considered a brunette. So no, I'm not the other Hatchling that you were thinking of. I can't really say who I am.
I don't really know who I am.
Another person stuck in the same 'game' as us. But maybe diffrent some how. I look forward to getting to know you more Xirena. Once again thank you for the condolences.
ReplyDeleteThat is one way to put it Aiden.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to getting to know you more, as well.
And you're welcome. I do hope things start going better for you soon.
~~X~~
I'm sorry to hear that. Well damn I wish I could contact Excel through telepathy but I can't even feel him anymore.
