Mr Jones
Mr Jones sat in the luxurious seat, watching the clouds rolling past the small, oval window. The seaplane, better known as a flying boat, was almost at its journey's end. Just a few more hours and the last nine days could be put behind him. He subconsciously touched his briefcase by his feet and adjusted his Investigation Branch commissioned suit as his eyes drifted, once again, to the young woman who sat across the aisle. She had fallen asleep, and his eyes could not help but gaze at her shapely calves and wonder what lay beneath the crumpled beige skirt. As if she sensed she was being watched, her eyes flickered open, and a small smile crept across her mouth.

So Beautiful
The lake shimmered in the setting sun. Tones of gold and orange flecked across the rippling water. The woman, slight of build, sat on the edge of the long wooden dock. She shivered and pulled her shawl closer around her shoulders. Sighing, she watched as spirals of autumn leaves twirled across the lake. It was beautiful, she thought. Watching the last of the light disappear beyond the horizon the harsh neon sign light lit up behind her. She turned and stared at it, wishing it would blow its billboard lights and stop the constant humming.

Fury
Her calloused fingers wound around the delicate metalwork of the locket. She traced the familiar heart shape with ease. The lock of hair safely stowed away inside brought her peace. He had been her world and the others had ripped him from her arms.
