What She Sought [Rating: K]

<i><b>AN:</b> Here's a little ditty I wrote up back in April for the heck of it. I was "inspired" by some after work events and decided to put it in story format. I really need to write more. Ah! There might be ellipses abuse from this point forward....</i>

<center><b>What She Sought</b>
by Wicked Child</center>

She stood in front of the door, an air of anticipation reverberating off the walls surrounding her in darkness. She licked her lips and took one step forward.

Would <i>it</i> be in there?

Prior to her arrival she had been assured that what she sought was behind that door. Oh how she hoped it would be! She had been dreaming about this particular day for over a year, and to be this close?.

Tentatively she reached a hand out to grasp the door handle. Doubt prevented her from making contact.

What if <i>it</i> wasn?t in there? Surely <i>its</i> creator would not lie!

No. She hadn?t been lied to. She was certain of that. There was no need to lie.

But. Someone could have come and taken what she viewed as hers by right. It wouldn?t be the first time. Maybe someone, just as she walked into the building even, had opened the same door and taken her prize.

<i>?Stop this!?</i> she inwardly admonished. <i>?The only way to find out is to open the stupid door. If you?ve been lied to, they?ll feel your wrath.?</i>

And no one liked to feel her wrath.

With fiery determination in her eyes, she fearlessly grasped the door?s handle and yanked! Her eyes searched frantically, almost desperately before?.

There it was, tightly wrapped, resting upon a small saucer. A small, smug grin made it?s way onto her face. It quickly turned triumphant, and almost feral. <i>It</i> was now hers and only hers.

The last deviled egg from Easter dinner.

How wrong people were to believe Easter was about ham, candy, bunnies, and hidden colored eggs. It was all about Jesus?and deviled eggs. And the last one was hers.

Wasting no more time, she took the egg from the fridge before retiring to her room. She grabbed a few slices of ham and the small Tupperware full of sweetened corn just to round things out.

She did, after all, have some chocolate candies hidden in a bunny shaped box for dessert.

Thanks Epyon. XD

My mother swore that there was one egg left on our way home from my job and this little thing popped into my head.

Yeah I think I'm a wee bit off balance too. But the egg was delicious!
