Stray. Tristan. G

[actionreaction]

There's like a total of one of you who even knows this character. But I'm being inspired by songs today and his theme came on. So I wrote about him.

His name's Tristan and he's a werewolf.

Also - this is for those of you who'd like to read something besides slash for once.


Stray

Is there a place left there for me
Somewhere that I belong
Or will I always live this way... ?
Always stray

The snow was heavy, thick, and blinding. It took effort to push through the swirling blizzard, almost as though it were a barrier. In a manner of speaking it was. Behind lay nothing, emptiness, vast and riddled with painful memories. Ahead lay… no one knew. Hope perhaps? A new life? Someplace to go, to live, to be.

Or he could be going into further desolation, desertion and death. That didn’t matter. No matter how many dead there were, at least ahead, they would be strangers. They wouldn’t be his family, his clan, his pack.

The winds were dying down. Tristan lifted his head, paws sinking lightly into the snow. His nose twitched with a hint of a scent. Human. He growled low, fangs bared. No love for humans, not after what they’d done.

But not now. Now he was too weak. He needed to rest. To find a place so he could stop moving for the night. So he no longer had to stray.

And then he could move on again.




Lyrics:

Stray! Stray!

In the cold breeze that I walk along
The memories of generations burn within me
Been forever since I cried the pain and sorrow
I live and die, proud of my people gaining

I'm here standing at the edge
Starin up at where the moon should be

Stray!
No regrets 'cause I got nothin to lose
Ever stray!
So I'm gonna live my life as I choose
Until I fall..

Stray! Stray!
Stray! Stray!

In the white freeze, I never spoke of tears
Or opened up to anyone including myself
I would like to find a way to open to you
Been awhile, don't know if I remember how to

I'm here waiting on the edge
Would I be alright showing myself to you?
It's always been so hard to do..

Stray!
No regrets 'cause I got nothin to lose
Ever stray!
So I'm gonna live my life as I choose
Until I fall...

Stray! Stray!
Stray! Stray!
Stray! Stray!

Is there a place left there for me
Somewhere that I belong
Or will I always live this way... ?
Always stray

No regrets 'cause I got nothin to lose
Ever stray!
So I'm gonna live my life as I choose
Cause all things fall

Stray! Stray!
Stray! Stray!
Stray! Stray!

Stray..
