The Grave Of The Fireflies Novels & Stories

I knew that my asthma was acting up. Years ago, I developed asthma after saving Owen from drowning. When we were in love, he always carried my inhaler. But now, seeing me like this, he only said, "Disgusting." I took my medicine and gradually regained my breath. When I returned to the villa, Luca Gray ran up to me. "Aunt Shannon, I dropped my toy in the water. Can you help me find it?" He tugged at my hand, leading me to the swimming pool.

Instead, I drifted away, gazing into the distance. I liked the cemetery's location. It overlooked a glittering lake—the same one where I used to stare at my reflection as a pup. Only Leo would think to bury me somewhere I would have loved. By the time they were too exhausted to continue fighting, they both lay on the ground, wounded, staring up at the moon. Leo bared his teeth at Ryan, panting heavily as if he wanted nothing more than to tear out his throat. "How dare you come to Tiana's grave?" he growled. "She just wanted to rest in peace, not be your possession even in death!"

I didn’t know facing them tonight would hurt more, that the pain would be more unbearable than it already was for the last four decades. I wiped my tears when I noticed a small spark dancing around their tombstone. I took a closer look and realized it must be a firefly.

Kenji reached into his pocket, picked out the ugliest one-yen coin, and threw it toward the bushes at the edge of the property. “What are you…” The answer Akiko sought appeared the moment the coin hit the bushes. Dozens of glowing lights floated up from the bushes. Dim greenish-yellow lights drifted around in all directions. “Hotaru.” (Fireflies) Kenji's surprise was effective. Akiko was awestruck. Of course, the glowing creatures were fireflies—creatures she could only encounter during the summer. “Beautiful?” Kenji grinned as Akiko nodded, her eyes actively following the fireflies’ movements.

" She nodded her head and followed my lead silently. We left the house and settled comfortably in the backseat of the car. My driver started the engine, and we began our journey towards the cemetery. We arrived there a few minutes later. We exited the vehicle and walked towards the area where a freshly dug grave was located. My men unloaded the golden coffin first, then the flowers. We stood beside the grave in total silence, soaking up the gloomy atmosphere that made our souls weep. I looked heavenward, and the sun was still shining in the heavens' above.

Nathan the sly the crafty one, our esteemed beta. And the flames twisted and contorted into the image of a serene burial ground, with raised mounds of dirts on the ground, tombstones to signify the identity of the buried, families crying over their fallen loved ones, bringing flowers and powering wine all over specific mounds of earth, crying and sobbing and refusing to be consoled. "The battle has been won, but at heartbreaking costs." She finished her chilling story and stared coldly into the fire. The gathering was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop a universe away.

"There's a legend here in the rainforest that if two people who've loved each other for a lifetime are buried together, not long after…" "Fireflies will fly out of their graves..." Morpheus said simultaneously as she did. Persephone looked at the screen in shock. Morpheus smiled. "And the light from these fireflies will reflect the past love of those two people in the rainforest." "Morpheus..." "Someone told me this story when I was young," Morpheus said in a low voice. "Would you like to know who that person was?"

After saying it for over ten times, a little fire appeared over one grave before the rain water extinguished it. "This is stupid." I gritted my teeth and kicked the headstone, making it fall on the wet soil. Fucking bitch that hurt. Because of the fucking heel in my leg I had forgotten about. I plucked it out and tossed it aside. "What the hell are we going to do now?" "Keep trying till we do what we have set our minds to." Natalia answered. "Try using the torches. Maybe their magic is linked or something."

They both often went to the garden behind her palace to see them. One night when they went there they didn't find a single firefly, and that made her so sad. She cried because she thought they had left her and didn't want to see her again. Seeing her crying, he immediately took two candles and lit them.
