Age of Aquarius.
Dominique had been travelling for a long while, though she was still in the presences of the city. she was now in Downtown Sacramento, listening to the blaring sounds of cars, the soft chit chat of people and also cooing of pigeons. But the sun has set over the horizon, the skies dyed with the soft colors of purple, dark pink and a bit of gold as stars took over. The young girl looked up but couldnt really see that much..so she decided to take another route.
After going through a building and take the elevator she was now on top of a sky scraper, looking up at the sky. It was cold up there..really cold, but she was clad in a big leather jacket, not to mention a long sleve white shirt and black pinstripe pants. she would survive. The wind blew , making her trenchcoat flap in the breeze and she smiled warmly, watching the sky get darker and darker. but as it did it seemed to get brighter too, as if the sunrise had come in such a short time. She turned around and gasped, seeing what it was...
The full moon.
It was huge, taking up a great deal of the sky, the giant orb a beautiful milk color. Its rays bathed the people and items below but they didnt take notice, going on about their lives..too wrapped up in themselves to care about the great phenomenon the cosmos had to offer. She looked down, shaking her head. She snapped her head back up at the moon upon hearing the loud bay of a wolf from teh distance. It seemed that some humans were paying attention....the beast inside them awaking.
Dominique watched the moon for the while as if she was awaiting transformation herself. She knew she would..or part of her would; Midnight, her wolf persona would rise up and prowl the streets in search of blood. While she thought of this, something else dawned on her and she spoke up out loud, only to herself.
"This is the first full moon of the year... the first full moon in Aquarius."
"Aye, and this signifies the Age of Aquarius." Another voice piped up behind her.
The young, dark girl turned around quickly to see who was behind her..actually having to look down. Standing in front of her at 5'2" was an elderly woman, green eyes full of wisdom. she was about in her 80's, face wrinkld yet eyes making you think different. Long tresses of white and grey cascaded down her back, a headband of feathers on top of her. she was wearing an elegant dark blue gown, the bottom covered with strange markings of animals and plants. In her hand was a staff. She looked like a normal old woman..perhaps from a Native reserve..but her ears were strnge; they were furry and gray as her hair....wolf ears. Nique smiled softly after calming down, knowing who it was.
"Grandmother Buscuit.." She said softly...
The elderly woman replied, walking up to the taller one as if she was some long lost grand-daughter. She spoke to her still, now looking up at the moon. Nique couldnt help but to look up as well.
"The Age of Aquarius is a sign of big changes" Buscuit started softly, one of her wolf ears wtiching."Really big changes. They have already started before the full moon. The tsunami, The inaguaration, the change of presidents in Plastine. All of this is a sign that even bigger changes are yet to come, little one. Have you felt them...? "
Dominique would only nod. Another gust of wind went by but they did not move, only their clothing.
"You have went through big changes as well, havent you? I shall not say them but you know what I speak of."
"Yes." The dark girl would reply, brown eyes looking brighter because of the moonlight. "I never thought it would happen..but it did."
Buscuit watched the moon for a few moments then looked to the taller one, smiling. "And the following years are going to be a big step for you, dear Aquarian. For you are now the age of an adult...you are fully ready to take on the changes and challenges without falling. You will be able to do it."
The two females looked at each other then the youngest one spoke up, raising an eyebrow.
"That sounds pretty corny."
That when she was hit with the staff of wisdom..and boy did it hurt. Buscuit smirked and spoke up once again while the dark woman was rubbing her head vigorously, tryin to get rid of the pain.
"The age of aquarius is at hand, Dominique. Take care of what you need to do; do not forget the ones you hold dear and more importantly, your inner child."
The creator looked up, about to give that old bag a peice of her mind but by the time she did she found out that Buscuit was gone. She was alone once again.
