After Unlocked, a sokeefe Fanfiction.

Darkness

At first all she saw was darkness.

It offered a bleak outlook on the future too her emotionless heart

She felt no happiness, fear, nor warmth.

The only thing she felt was ice.

The chills throughout her stayed long enough she was used to the cold, long enough that she almost didn't notice they were there.

Years could have passed and she would've had no recollection.

Her lone reminder of her parents.

Or it could have been Keefe, the constant smiles that he brought too her lips.

The one she...

But in truth, it could've been all these things. But now she was never too know.

A sweet scent filled her mind as the voice carried on,
