What Lies Beneath the Sea

It told me once that it came from the distant void of space where stars lived and die but now, it found itself slumbering within the depths of earth's ocean, a being once worshipped by elder gods now better left forgotten. Teetering on the verge of waking but not quite, not yet... something that has fallen but never dies continues to wait till the oceans run dry so it may rise once more, till the sun extinguishes itself and all life ceases to exist in this world. It dreams of horrible, hopeful dreams. For this is the way of things beyond life on earth that should have died but failed to stay dead. For as long they still retain their will to exist, to live and still have bodies–however scattered, buried or broken–they would still remain in this world. …Until even death may die. What Lies Beneath the Sea is created by Ataraxia, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 33: Still waters run deep (part 6)

And goosebumps were already forming in Li-Am's arms, the hairs on the back of his neck standing straight as a shudder makes its way on his spine, toppling over what little bravery he ever has on its path.

"You know... you should stop giving the little song false hope," she continues in the same lilting voice that clung heavily to him like sin and incense, soft but bellying with a steel-like command as she steadily met his horrified gaze, looking strangely amused and a touch disapproving, "...because quite frankly, not only it is a waste of time, but it is also rather rude of you."

"Y-You're not... y-you're not–!"

Those eyes of ocean blue glittered eerily amidst the dim light of the now stuttering screen, static blaring loudly around them as a cold, mocking expression that did not looked right on his daughter's face glowered right back at him, "Y-You're–y-you're... do cease that pathetic stuttering of yours at once, you dense little thing–and speak properly."
