*Gust sat on the wide stone window ledge of her room. The stone was rough and cold against her skin where she leant against it, and her feet dangled over the edge, buffeted by the chill mountain winds. The mansion was so quiet now, empty apart from her. Everyone else had... left. But she really didn't have anywhere else to go. She couldn't go to any of her friends - were they still her friends, after what she'd done? No, she couldn't face them, she just couldn't. And how could she even begin to explain what had happened to her parents?
Everything had gone so wrong. It wasn't supposed to be like this. Not like this at all.
Gust no longer knew where to go or what to do with herself. She'd made the wrong choice and now there was nothing left.*
