Unbalanced. That's how she felt....

Ditto stood at the edge of the water on the tiny Jhelum island with the old KGP Outpost just a stonethrow away. She stared out at the starry sky with tears threatening to slip down her cheeks. She felt so frustrated. So helpless to do anything....
With a bare toe, she began to absent mindedly trace a heart shape in the sand and closed her eyes tightly remembering the first time she had ever seen the man known then as Cloudster. His boyishly handsome smile with those magnetic blue eyes. Had she seen the last of those eyes the way they were then? With a stubborn pout, she opened her eyes slowly and looked up again at the stars. Life was as the night sky. Filled with so many stars....so many possibilities. Why did it feel as if the stars were all about to fall?
Who took the chest? Where was it? It may hold the answers to what was happening to her husband and if not reverse his seemingly permanent physical changes, then maybe, with the chest she could at least find a way to stop it from continuing any further. Ditto looked down and stared at the heart shape. Her bottom lip quivered and she hugged herself tightly and closed her eyes. She let herself be carried away for a moment with the feeling of the distant drumming heartbeat that was always with her. Finding comfort in it. The bond hadn't changed. She smiled at the reminder and stood, just enjoying the feeling.
A sudden gust of wind disturbed her thoughts and she blinked her eyes open to feel raindrops. A storm was coming. She should get home before he began to worry about her. She needed to be with him now anyway. Ditto turned and walked away from the small beach. Tomorrow the search for the chest would continue, but tonight she just wanted to hold him.

Raindrops poured down hard onto the sand, creating a small flowing stream. Slowly the stream ran along the picture drawn in the sand erasing part of the lines until only half of a heart remained....
