fiction_drabblesTitle: Darkness is a Great Black Sheep
Prompt: [Bad username or unknown identity: ]#47 Hollow
Original Fiction: The Komatsu Wombat and the Fantastical Anticlimax
Characters: Arunta Williams
Rating: PG
Warnings: N/A, mild story spoilers for Ch 5.
A/N: Arunta's name means 'white cockatoo'.
Summary: It's hard to ask for space when you're stuck behind a cave-in.
.
Darkness is a great black sheep, and it grazes on sanity.
Feathered white in his dreams, Arunta wages war, suncrest flared. He wields lightning, or a jackhammer, the powercord his umbilical; Arunta digs this earth hollow to find his long-lost sky. He crows at the sight, wings wide--
--falling into the black of his own beady eye.
Beneath a kilometre of earth and six years of darkness, Arunta wakes gasping. The tunnels are so thick with everyone, thick as wool, with sound, breath, rustle, the stench, space turned solid with these matted years.
Hollow bird-bones can't stand a chance.
