With all the problems I've had I almost decided to start, AGAIN. Instead, I decided my character, Winter Thyme was really a viable character and I would continue her saga with her newest, and last, resurrection with a brand new town and mate. This thyme, I'm playing in RV, my least favorite town, simply because I know SV so well I felt it wasn't fair. So...here goes:
Chapter One: You Don't Know Me
Really, you DON'T know me. I am the one who is yet to come. The last one. At the moment, I, like many others of my kind, are waiting to be born. I have decided even now that I will be the last. I will be the one to put a stop to the pain of watching the mortals die and leave the others bereft.
Perhaps you aren't aware of what is happening? Perhaps you haven't heard how some folk in town seem to live forever? It's true, you know. There is a special cadre of people who have discovered, to their great sorrow, the elixir of life that will keep them, and the members of their dynasty, alive forever. But I digress. I meant to introduce you to them, one by one, till it is my turn to arrive. When I do, I will be the last, and the dynasty will end.
Let me introduce you to our founder, Winter Thyme. Having her heart broken by what she considered to be the untimely death of her parents and lover, she moved to a new town and started her quest for the elixir of life, Ambrosia. She had vowed no one she ever loved would die again, only to find she must chose only one person in her lifetime, an heir of her body, but her mate, and anyone else she knew, must die. Consoling herself with the knowledge that at least her child would survive and be with her forever, she sought the formula.........
Day One: Dear diary, Here I am in River View. Such a pretty town! My little patch of home, an empty lot at the moment, is in the best neighborhood in town. Mom and Dad were so wise when they taught me what I should look for in purchasing a place to live. The view out back is outstanding and the neighboring houses mean mine, once it's built, will only continue to increase in value.
Today I met the coolest guy! He is sooooooo handsome! I worship the ground he walks on. He's a rock star and I simply couldn't believe he lives right across the street from me! Right from the beginning it was love at first sight.......FOR BOTH OF US! Yes, that's right. He loves me as much as I love him. Let me tell you I didn't waste any time. I immediately proposed:
He was so excited he jumped up and down and giggled like a girl! He never thought it would never happen to him because, though all the townies worshiped him, but he knew they only wanted him for his fame.
Of course, he said an emphatic yes! He literally swept me off my feet and wanted to run off with me.
I had a few things to do, so instead, just asked him if I could spend the night. I had to get my career going, build us at least a bedroom and bathroom, and do a few things my kleptomaniac nature was pushing me toward. I hated to steal from Jon, but I knew if I didn't the others who lived in his big house would, and he would be left with nothing. I nabbed a couple of cars and a guitar, and gee, I don't remember what else. He would NOT be without his beloved guitar and cars if I could do anything about it.
Finally, I couldn't wait any longer. We were married in a private ceremony and moved into our new house on my lot. What a happy night that was!
Oh, dear! Car pool is here. I guess I'll continue this tomorrow!
