A Drabble; A Letter Part 12 (wip-ending...?)

(Just to let you know, those who have been following this story, I may come back to it...tell a little more about Millie and Carrie, and what if anything came next...)

A Letter,  part 12

Napoleon, his surviving daughter Carrie and her grandparents stood watching the coffin lowering slowly into the grave. Carrie dropped a single white rose onto the lid of the coffin, tears on her cheeks. Tom and Elsie led her away to wait by the car. Illya moved in beside Napoleon, fighting memories of his own. Napoleon’s shoulders were shaking, but he was making no sound.

           “We’ll destroy THRUSH one day, my friend.” Illya said softly. “I swear we’ll make them pay for killing Millie.”

           “Millicent Rose Solo, fifteen years old, killed by THRUSH.” He raised red eyes to Illya.

           “This is not over!”

I'm afraid that I'm going to have to strongly request more. This story has been angst from start to finish, and I LOVE it.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!
It is sometimes hard to know if I am carrying people with me or not, and this is a new method of storytelling for me. I was very worried about dragging it on too long and making readers bored. I am thinking about telling the whole story in a regular format, so that all the missing scenes can be filled in as well, if you know what I mean...or would that ruin it? I could simply write a continuation...?

I am so glad you have been enjoying it.

Personally speaking, I would love to read the whole story, with the missing scenes filled in :-)

your wish is my command, my friend! I don't get a huge amount of writing time these days, but I'll get right on it and let you know. The story as it fits in my head has been pared down considerably for the drabbles. (it was good practise!)
:-)

Thank you Mrua7!

Thanks mrua7!
My muse had gone off on some kind of walkabout with no hint of returning. Thanks to mrua7's suggestion of trying a drabble or two, she is back with a vengeance! Wahay!!!
