It fell from the sky like bullets, shaking the newly growing plants and flooding their short roots. The foliage had just barely began to come out of the ground and it seemed like the rain was trying to halt its slow progress. The mosses had come first, creeping over the rocks that surrounded the mansion's walls and over top of the logs in the valley behind, and now little violets and clover were beginning to pop up. Or...they had been, until now.
It was a dreary morning, but not a cold one. It had rained off and on and it was coming down harder than ever, dropping through the dense, low clouds that swirled over Crimson Dreams. Naniko sat on the porch with her legs over the edge of the railings, looking up at it. The rain would stop soon, she knew, and then she'd be able to get out and do what she wanted without getting all wet and muddy. Brown didn't look so good against white. The Commander leaned her head against the support-post that helped to hold the roof up, staring out into the fog.
