The Bridge Builder – Part 05

Victorique stumbled onto the bridge, glowing like a mystic fairy bathed in silver light. Groaning, she got up and surveyed her surroundings slowly.

She was currently in the middle of the Brooklyn Bridge with Kujou, but at the same time, she was on a bridge in wartime Germany. From the New World bridge came the cheers of the crowd, while from the Old World bridge came the sounds of gunfire, cannon blasts, groans, screams.

Soldiers lay in heaps in front of her, smoke rising, the air thick with the smell of blood. A white flower slowly drifted from the chest of a soldier who looked like William Trayton. Someone stepped on it, crushing it. Eddie Sawyer’s sobbing song played in the background: “When the cranberry flowers bloom… I’m going home… going home… Mom is… waiting for me.”
