SH Drabble: Retracing Steps
SH Drabble: Retracing Steps
She sinks into herself. Sinks into her mind. Sinks into a central place, still and open. And she puts up the walls. It's natural, it's easy. It's something she's done before, even though she can't remember.
She doesn't know who she is. The silent place inside her has no name.
But piece by piece, the walls come up. Quicksilver Hawke, hotshot pilot. And when she dare not be anything but Quicksilver... that is all she will be. The tattered ghost will hide behind the flash and flow.
She surfaces, and knows how she left her own salvation in her mind.
