Description
Flee and Shoo sat in the back room of the bar, Shoo sitting to the left of Flee. Both were silent, unmoving. An iPod sat on Flee's leg, hooked up to speakers. Both of them sang along to the song if they knew the words, though still not moving, or laughing. All emotions were gone…all but sadness. Soon, a familiar song came on. The whole room seemed to grow darker as the song started

"I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from 'A' to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places..."

Lights shone on the wall as the 'twins' sang together…

"I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science"

Both twins looked to each other as the glowing of orbs filled the room…

"Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me…"

Slowly, something odd began happening. Orbs of light began floating off of Flee's skin, making him start disappearing. Shoo grabbed his hand, tears streaming down her face slowly.

"I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms…

After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in"

The fading quickened, half of Flee's body now completely gone. Shoo couldn't hold back a sob, but she continued singing the best she could. Flee's voice was becoming weaker….
Slowly, his right hand began disappearing…

"I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms…"

The last note held for a while longer as Flee's voice started wavering. The passion of the song washed over him. Quickly, he pulled himself to Shoo and kissed her lips softly as the last few lines played…

"I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms……."

…AT that moment, Flee was gone….

At that moment…

Flee was wiped from history…
But not from the minds of his family…
Friends…
And his 'sister'….
