The Vampire, The Zombie, and The Phantom

The Vampire, the Zombie, and the Phantom.

....Old friends. Very old. The Zombie came first. He was the start of it all. The Vampire came second. Finally, the Phantom came when the Vampire bled tears, the culmination of all her flaws, and more.

One day, the Phantom discovered that she could bathe in sunlight without burning. The others were jealous.

Still good friends, though. It takes more than that to break a friendship.

....Years passed....

The Vampire, the Zombie, and the Phantom decided to take a walk. The Vampire and Phantom discovered that they could fly. The Zombie, she looked up at the two, gracefully playing in the moonlight, while she shambled aimlessly down below. But they saw her and came back.

The Vampire and the Zombie gasped as the Phantom splashed playfully in the water. They watched as the water began turning thick and black. The Phantom looked at the river, then hopped out.

The Vampire and the Zombie watched as the Phantom played in the sunlight. Oddly enough, whatever beautiful she touched withered and fell thick with a strange goo. The Phantom was ashamed.

Finally, the area around where they lived turned ugly and sour. The Phantom blamed herself, fleeing.

The Vampire gave chase. The Zombie tried to follow, but feel behind.

The Phantom ran into the sunlight. The Vampire could not follow. The Phantom kept running until she finally reached an already barren desert. She resided there until it became too hostile for her. She then fled further.

The Zombie still slowly and carefully pursued the Phantom, determined not to give up chase. He's still pursuing her, but he will never catch her. Too slow.

Vampires are supposed to be beautiful, aren't they? Mira's supposed to be beautiful, too.

Did Zios come back yet?

Think.
