What?

What is this?

Why me?

What did I do to deserve this?

The girl fell to her knees, crunching the white flurry before her.

Looking down she saw it's white turn red.

Red?

Why red?

The white of the word, was slowly turning red.

She pulled her hand up to her chest, wincing with pain.

Copper, she tasted copper.

She coughed, a red froth now sit on her lips.

Cold?

Why was it so cold?

Her body went limp and she fell to the ground.

Dark.

Why was it so dark?
