Stars Descend

The elves have come down from the sky in their ships, their countenances full of light and their bodies, power. But they rule over us humans with iron fists, and without mercy.Vampires stalk the streets, lurking in shadows and the cover of darkness. Their lust for blood is never sated, and the nights are filled with the screams of their victims.I'm just a street rat, a trash picker. I didn't expect him to choose me. The Prince of Elves could have anyone, so why me?Even as my heart sings at the elf's close proximity, I still love the boy who left me, disappearing into the city's corrupt underworld. I don't even know if he's still alive.Stars reign. Rebellion brews. And with my already uncertain future disintegrating into chaos, I don't know who to turn to, or who to trust.
