Like a feather, She fell

Anna was wearing a huge white wedding gown, it was a ball gown with layer and layer of laces, and she looked like a fairy-tale princess. Her wedding veil did look like a white peacock stretching its feathers, ready to dance.

***Accident happened***

Like a feather, Anna drifted five thousand plus feet above the ground and her last vision was filled with the bewildered face of Shane. In any minute, she would reach her final destination of these worldly affairs. But still, her lips curled up as she saved Shane, 'Her First Love.'

Her heart was content and happy.

Farewell.

Farewell to all!

Farewell to all my agonies and neglects!

Farewell to all this worldly affairs!

Her huge wedding ball gown spread across in the deep blue sky as if a white dove opened its wings to fly.

She closed her eyes and accepted the inevitable.

She then crashed on the branches of the huge tree which stripped her wedding gown and veil inch by inch all the way through her skin, piercing her skin like a dagger. She tumbled by a huge hit and thrown and swayed by the needle-shaped branches which ripped the skin in her waist.

She winced and like a swirl, she spun through one heavy branch which hit her head pretty hard. Her dresses were tearing and every inch of her body was covered by bruises and her white wedding gown was covered with blood stains.

She was not only losing blood, but she was also losing her consciousness.

While winding through the branches, her huge ball gown got trapped in one of the heavy branches. She hung there for a short while. She drifted in the mid-air like a 'last white orchid' ready to fall any minute.

Underneath her, a deep pool with crystal clear water laid still with no motion. An ear piercing snap of the branch heard; Anna was still unconscious and she was dragged along with the huge branch which was ready to take her down to the deep pool to drown her and engulf her completely.

Anna felt like she was in a dream. She could not inhale air, her mouth and nose began filling with waters. Her lungs and throat were soaked as well, She twitched and quivered but all in vain.

As she was about to give up, she felt a sudden pull and she was so numb to panic. She let the pull 'take her in' completely. Without any fight, she accepted the defeat.

--------------

A man with a bare chest dived in and pulled Anna, and with his razor sharp knife, he stripped the hem of her gown which was locked with the branches. With one last pull, they both resurfaced out of the water, he dragged her to the shore.
