Shards of Silver 4

The day went by in a haze of different preperations that had to be made.

She took a final look at the DOM, her pride and joy. The first MC she bought after her first real gig at Limbo. He was a bit old and looked a bit aged, but he was still in great shape, much because she cared for him like a mother a child.

the Chenél was her "city" bike. The one she fell in love with just because of the beauty in her lines. A real queen.

Preparing the show actually took less time than she had feared.

The clothes was a bit more difficult. The weather had been really odd lately. Strange for the season.

Food was next challenge. She was hoping to live of nature. The lakes was full of fish and the woods for usually filled with all sorts of fruits and berries this time of the year. She wanted to avoid the citys as much as possible.

The show went smothly except for a few calls from "breathers". She would miss her show. Ghosts Radio was her one true love. She always felt so connected to the audience, even more so then her music ever did.

Limbo was as buzzing as always or even more so doue to the new X beer.

She ordered a "Smokey" and sat at her usual spot, trying to get a feel of the people. She always wanted to feel the pulse of the crowd befor hitting the stage. Maybe she didn't have to now, since she was only doing this one song and not an entire gig, but it calmed her.

And then she was on.

Fred was playing with a feeling for the lyrics like no one else.

The lighting seemed softer than usual wich suited the song.

She got lost in the music, got swept away like a piece of drift wood in the river.

- We will be together

just like in those songs

You and me forever

Until then I walk alone....

But I can hear you calling calling calling

my body feels you calling calling calling

Will I

Will I

Will I ever touch the sky?

She bowed her head and the stage went dark.

Silence

and then the applause.

-That was one powerful song!!!!! Fred was all over the place. When did you write that? When is it going to be relased?

-I just wrote it now, she admitted. I had sort of an idea but I wasn't completely sure what to make of it until just now. And No it will not be released.. Not now anyway.

-You are nuts!

-What else is new? Jeff stood behind them. Dang that was Awesome! You didn't see the audience like it did but they where eating every word you said.

-Well I ain't no Angie.

-No one is. She has the voice of an Angel, but you have a way with words like onone else. If my old Nan was here I'll bet she would say you are one for the Shards of Silver.

-A what?

-You have never heard the legend of the Silver lakes and the Snow magpies?

-No?

-Well I'm off, said Fred. You are nuts if you wont get this released. I hope your journey will fix what ever is wrong in your head! He smiled and gave her a hug before he left.

-He is right you know.

-What ever. Tell me more about the legend.

-Well, according to my Nan, so way back when, this world was created by a God and a Goddess that wanted to spread their love. And to make sure the human race would grow strong and kind they shared their magic to some. To even the playingfield sort of.

-So all music is magic?

-Well, not all music. And according to my Nan, it isn't really magic at all. Take for instance the wind. You can't see it. But you can feel it.. And windmills can use that wind. So it's more like some people can use the things around us in a way others can't. They just connect. To my Nan there is more magic in a phone and technology.. She never understood how you can take a persons voice and move it any distance without moving the body.. He laughed.

-But my voice isn't that good?

-It's not really the voice but how you use words.. You can almost spellbind people with your lyrics.

-Yeah sure. She laughed. I would have loved to talk with your Nan. I'll bet she would be a great source of inspiration. You always makes her feel magical when you talk about her. Is she a "Shard of Silver"?

-No, according to Nan there was a huge war with another God and they had to leave this planet and after some time the connection with people and the earth got lost. But she always said that that connection could come back when people needed it or was ready.. When the Snow birds sings an new era beginns.

-And now they sing.

-And now they sing...
