Wordsmith Wednesday #2

This amazing new meme is brought to us by the wonderfully talented, Hope Collier.

The objective:

Show us a scene from your current project. It can be creepy, adventurous, romantic, etc. Just a snippet to let readers see what they're in for!

The guidelines:

* Must be from a current work-in-progress (WIP). Nothing already published.
* You may choose from any section of the manuscript, but be mindful not to include spoilers.
* Keep it clean and YA audience friendly, please. No erotica.
* Stay under 300 words or about one page. It can be as little as a few lines if you prefer. We just want to give readers a chance to see everyone's selection.
* Link back to Chirenjenzie so we can enjoy others' work as well!
* Include the guidelines in your post.

WIP: Fallenmore (Feathermore Trilogy, #2)

PUBLICATION DATE: June 2012

I picked out my outfit from the closet and slammed the bathroom door behind me. Morning showers had become somewhat of a necessity; it was the one time I allowed myself to be weak. The warm water that cascaded down my body seemed to melt away the walls that kept the tears hidden deep inside of me. Every cell in my body burned with rage. I curled into a ball in the bathtub floor and cried; for the love I had lost, for the loss of lives I had facilitated and that I carried over my shoulders.  I would, one day, claim the retribution that was rightfully mine.

What do you guys think?
