/* Evanescence "Bring Me to Life" */ Story Theme

"how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where i've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
now that i know what i'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time i can't believe i couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life"

Darkness shone around her, pulsating a feeling of nothingness that crept into her soul. Moments later a vision of the bloody, war-torn world she had called home came into view, and her heart cried out for the people whose souls she felt die. Slowly, ever so, all the people on Earth were being killed, the dissapating negative energy left over from the battle with Choas not leaving fast enough.

Her thoughts strayed to her senshi, her most loyal of friends who had fought to their deaths to protect her. And for what? To allow her to see the end of everything they knew and loved, with nothing left for her to do to stop it?

But there was something she could do....

Gazing down at the crystal resting against her chest, she felt it's strong yet gentle power wash over her. It had always been her suspicion that the crystal had been a silent companion with a soul, a spirit that guided her when no other could, offering strength and support. The crystal was alive in a way no one would ever be able to comprehend, and now it was again sharing its knowledge and wisdom with her.

As the final human scream filled her ears, she knew what had to be done. It was the only way.

Summoning the power of her silent companion, she begged it to grant her this one last wish. She would remake the earth, recreating what had just been destroyed. The souls that grieved for their own loss swirled around her, nearly suffocating her, urging her to let them return to life, and that was what she did.

Hours later, she looked down at her creation, the intricate world she had just formed from the ashes of its predecessor. The souls would return soon, and Fate and Destiny would play their games once more, shaping the weave of the fabric of time.

Already she could feel their power pulling at her, and she willingly gave into the darkness of oblivion, not caring where they placed her next.

She was alone.
