Challenge: [92] Feathers
Title: Paper Cranes
Word Count [100]

Notes: No spoilers; this came about from the project I'm doing with the Japanese Club, we're folding a 1,000 paper cranes to send to Hiroshima next month.



There was a legend that if one folded 1,000 paper cranes, they'd be granted a wish. It was an old legend; but nothing was hurt by trying to complete it.

Sora's mother deftly folded another square of paper into the shape of a crane, smoothing out the edges to form strong creases; puffing out the crane with a warm breath of air. Wind ruffled the sheets of paper next to the completed cranes; giving the impression of many feathers rustling in the wind.

She prayed the many wings of her cranes would bring Sora back to her, safe and sound.

This is me, loving you. <3 I just have the image of this poor woman sitting about, folding and folding, with the cranes all over the floor, and you know you wear off the top layer of your finger if you rub paper too much, and gah. Preeetty. And 100 words yay!
