The Storm and Its Rainbow

Summary

A young woman and her close guy friend live out in the middle of a plain, where there are few trees and lots of wind and golden grass. They live in a very small community whose main jobs are integrated with one of the most productive Hot Air Balloon Companies. Where they live is the perfect place to blow hot carbon into a balloon and take off in baskets.

These two young adults find that they feel that they are being choked by boredom in their small "home", and want to get out of there. They yurn to explore a world they'd never seen.. So, in the middle of the night where the stars lay naked in their sky, this young woman rushes over to his house and pries through his window. For they planned an escape - to run away.

A little farther away, jumping a creek that separates the community to the Company - they fetch a hot air balloon scramble to set it up. Right when they are about to take off, they realize a little girl had secretly joined them.
So, as they all leave their home, they know that they will be missed. However, their thirst for adventure tasted stronger than a place they had always known.

This is when the adventure begins...a storm brews, and their balloon pops midst it. They land into a foreign land, with the little girl missing. The two friends having grown a parental attachment for the little girl then achingly search for her.

This journey is about finding a home, love in all of its naked glory, and the true meaning of family.

Ember Skine​

Age:

Eighteen

History:

Her parents are artists, and living off of this simple income hasn't been easy. They always encouraged her to invest in her imagination and to give it to others.

Ember has always admired her parents for having fallen in love in this small town where the grasses and winds whisper. But
she never felt satisfied, as though her spirit longed for more. Ember became restless and rebellious, staying out late not doing anything naughty with the boys, perhaps, but exploring as far as she can without being called back or worried about.
There hasn't been much discovered, untill now.

Personality:

She can be rather independent and curious. Ember is not simple.

Pet Peeves, Habits, Unique Qualities, etc:

Ember has always caught the stranger's eye. She is quite average, her looks aren't extraordinary. However, it has always been her radiant passion for life. Freedom and the thirst for a journey has always excited her childhood imagination, and has well moved into her 18 year world.​

Matt Bellamy

Age: 18

Physical Characteristics: Short (about 5'5") and very skinny. Clothes are almost always too big on him. Sometimes female clothes simply fit him better. He has a slight speech impediment, in which R's become W's. This is most prominent at the beginning of words rather than at the end, when he's especially excited or drunk. He's a fast talker. Sometimes it's hard to catch what he's saying.

Background: Matt's parents divorced when he was about thirteen. His mother moved him and his brother away from their father to the small prairie community to live with Matt's grandmother, who runs a small and poor hobby farm.

Personality: Matt is hard-headed, stubborn, driven, has a lust for life and excitement, socially awkward, smart, but hated school so is mostly self-educated on topics that are of interest to him (particularly conspiracy theories, science, astronomy, aliens.) He is exceptionally musically gifted and wants to pursue music as a career, but feels very held back in this small community. He can be quite crude, a bit of a jerk at times, and swears like a sailor. Often boasts a large ego, but underneath can be very self-conscious. He has an independent streak, but deep down desires to be cared for, though this is something that he fights vigorously. Has a soft spot for kids.​
