(Āø.ā€¢ ā™› ā†’ she cleaned quickly herself, the last thing she wanted abigail to see was blood all over her but she did what she had to do, she didn't want to die because she was scared of that, she couldn't help it. "abi..." she called her when she found her, so happy to see her alive and safe. "are you okay? are you safe? i was trying to look for you, i was so worried." but she didn't want to lie to her either and she feels guilty for the first time in her life when it comes about killing someone not for him but for doing this when she was trying so hard to be different.

closed starter for @spellbcok (Chloe x Silco)
Tumblr media
"Can't sleep either?" Silco glanced up as she appeared in the doorway. Recently his nightmares had gotten worse, flashes of his death coming back to him and making sleep basically impossible. Jinx seemingly getting worse as well. He didn't want to go too far away from his daughter at the moment, in case she panicked about him not being around, that he was dead again. He wanted to be close to ease those worries if needed. It was all just weighing heavily on his mind. His past... mistakes me had made, Wondering what could have been different. "I know it's a bad idea but helps me sleep." He placed the glass of whiskey down. If he was alive again, maybe Vander would be too. Could he forgive him? Everything that Vander did... the betrayal... for Jinx. He didn't know. Every time he looked into the mirror he saw the scars Vander had left. There wasn't any hiding it.

SPOTIFY WRAPPED - MEME EDITION!
@devilsmenu asked - 73 (Maysilee Donner & Daken)
SONG: Daylight by David Kushner
A PENSIVE LOOK dawned across Maysilee. She wrung her hands together, an almost pleading expression whispering into her. 'Do you ever believe that you should retreat into the shadows, as if the sun should banish you for your sins?' As dear as she loved the daylight, she often thought that she should run away from it. It made her think of the arena, the blistering sun beautiful as it and the scenery of it seemed to present mercy to she and her fellow tributes. Yet all it was was cruelty, poison supped from its vines. And in the pursuit for her own life, she herself became cruel with its beauty. She tried to not dwell on her necessary sin too often. It put her in melancholic steading as it did that day. She thought she did not deserve to enjoy the sun, for all she stole it from others. 'I feel I ought to beg for forgiveness before lingering in the daylight too long.'

closed event starter for kikyo & tifa !! @vcndetta
Tumblr media
"kikyo?" the girl called out; her eyes shining with tears- after what she had done.. it was hard not to feel immense guilt.. the voice had been silenced- and her life no longer felt threatened- but how could she live with this.. all these questions raced in her head, but for now she tried her best to focus on the fact- that she- kikyo was okay. "-i'm so glad you're okay- you're okay right?" she asked; wiping at the stray tear she couldn't keep from falling.

ā˜†ļ¾Ÿ.*惻 ā—ž is thatĀ caroline forbesĀ on bourbon street ? theĀ eighteen / forty-nineĀ year oldĀ vampireĀ who stay in theĀ the french quarterĀ ? i heard they areĀ marriedĀ toĀ klaus mikaaelson. they are notoriously known for beingĀ loyal & protectiveĀ but alsoĀ stubborn & dogmatic. which is probably why they are consideredĀ theĀ damsel out of distressĀ around town.Ā Ā i wonder if they had their tarot cards reading, yet? either way, the cards on the table will reveal their fate soon enough
stats !
full name: caroline forbes. nicknames:Ā care. gender: cis woman. pronouns: Ā she/her. sexuality: bisexual. spouse: klaus mikaelsonĀ children: josie & lizzie saltzman ( surrogate ), hope mikaelson ( step-child ), william, nikolas, & faith mikaelson ( biological )Ā traits: compassionate, overwrought, protective, reliable, devoted, & reticent. species: vampire. neighborhood: the french quarter occupation: administer at the mikaelson boarding school for the young and gifted. label: the damsel out of distress
lil bio ! ( death, guilt, and grieving tws below )
becoming a mother to josie and lizzie fundamentally changed caroline's life. after turning into a vampire she had been battling with the fact that motherhood was not in her future. not only was that not the case, her family would soon to grow bigger than she'd imagined when it had been just she and the girls. reconnecting with klaus and adding to her family was everything. as william, nikolas, and faith were born, caroline tried to balance the work she valued very much at the school, being a devoted wife and mother, and looking for some sort of loophole for the merge.
losing lizzie left caroline in shatters. guilt of not being able to save both her children from something so horrible weighed deeply within her. still she had to stay strong for the rest of her family. maybe she got a little overbearing after. checking in on her children a little more than normal, worry wormed into her heart and fear of losing another child ached. she couldn't help it.
as time passed caroline tried to heal, to rid herself of the pain in hopes to try and honor the living. her family helped, working helped, as long as she didn't lock herself away she could carry on, and she did. with her children grown and flying the nest caroline is tries not to overwhelm herself with work and her worries. making time for things that make her happy. she's going to live forever, life will throw things her way eventually and like always she'll fight like hell.

Whumptober 2023, Day 3 & 4: Solitary confinement, shock
Tumblr media
Whumptober 2023 Masterlist
Read at your own risk! They're only snippets of a larger story, with no resolution that will be posted online anytime soon; they are being posted out of order; and the characters don't have names. Enjoy!
Contents: blood (barely), guilt, arrested, fear, angst (a lotā€”what else is new?)
Previous | Masterlist | Next
Word count: 600 || Approx reading time: 3 mins
Solitary Confinement
Teaser: There was no running, not for him. Not anymore.
Tumblr media
"They'll kill me if I'm lucky / They'll torture me if not"
All the scholar could hear was his own rapid, fraying breath.
The panicked rasping.
The frantic gasp of each intake of air as he tried desperately to regain his senses.
Dead. Heā€™s dead.
Theyā€™d thrown him inside, heedless of how his sight failed him and his feet stumbled and scrabbled beneath him. Now he lay motionless, tasting blood, pretending that this was all part of his plan. He didnā€™t move from where heā€™d fallen.
Heā€™s dead, and I killed him.
He couldnā€™t move. He barely wanted to. The deed was done; the choice was made.
Iā€™ll distract him, heā€™d promised.
Heā€™d known what he was sacrificing when he walked into their midst.
Now. Run. Please.
There was no running, not for him. Not anymore.
The room was quiet, but it was distinctly unlike the soothing peace of the library where he had spent so many hours of his life. Thisā€”this was an ominous quiet, heavy with dread, slippery with promise. The promiseā€”and memoryā€”of death.
Leave him in there, theyā€™d said, until the prince arrives.
The thud of a body striking rough stone rang in his ears. It was only once he was already proneā€”still reeling from the impactā€”that the scholar realized it had been his own weary, grief-stricken bones and his own torn skin scraping against the floor.
Let the prince decide what to do with the bastard.
The scholarā€™s wrists stung, unused to anything harsher than the silk of his shirtsleeves. He wore metal bands now, heavy and pinching and dark, suppressing what little magic he possessedā€”the only weapon, truly, he had to wield. Snuffed out, as much a prisoner as he.
Magic heā€™d used to kill a man.
Dead. The word repeated in his mind. The commander was dead, and soon, the scholar would be, too.
Quiet.
So quiet.
Too quiet.
He loved such stillness, usuallyā€”relished it. Most of the time, it meant solitude. Solace. The tender whispers of turning pages, muffled footsteps, and contented sighs.
Today, it meant something else:
Death.
He hadnā€™t meant to.
But he had.
I chose this.
Heā€™d chosen her.
Soon the prince would arrive to decide his fate. He would know what his old tutor had done. He would pass judgment and, in all likelihood, sentence him to death.
I didnā€™t mean to.
The scholar had written the end of his own story, or rather, he had tried. He could never have imagined that this was where his life would lead himā€”to an empty, airless holding room, mere corridors from the dungeon cells that would no doubt become his tomb. And what for?
I did it for her.
If he closed his eyes, he could feel the ghost of her hands in his.
Donā€™t get hurt, sheā€™d said. A promise heā€™d knownā€”even as he agreedā€”he could not keep. He wondered what she would say if she could see him now. If sheā€”more full of fight than he had ever beenā€”would rage and rail to see him prostrate and shaking. Or if, instead, she would merely weep.
Get up, she would urge. Please.
The barest sliver of him wished his cruel, craven mindā€”soaked with pain and fear and shock and terrorā€”would let him be, that his conscience would simply rest. He almostā€”almostā€”wished her voice would just stop.
But if it did, he would be left with the emptiness and silence of the room, and in a sea of fear and foreboding, he would drown.
If it did, the scholar knew, he would never again hear her voice, out loud or in his head, so when death came for him, he would be nothing more than a wretched husk of a man, despised and heartbroken and alone.

ššƒšššš„ššƒš™· + do you blame yourself for Fu's death?
Tumblr media
"I...I don't blame myself as much as I used to."
The first few months, almost full year, was horrible for Ling after arriving home. He was hit so suddenly and self-blame and guilt was something he carried with him heavily. He remembered how he wanted Lan Fan to blame him, even hate him, just so he could ignore how he was feeling. He was so tempted to ask her but he held back.
Even if he worked through it and was recovered from that dark period for the most part, he knew there was always going to be blame, even if it wasn't as intense as the beginning.
"But...yes. I do blame myself and I think I always will."

š“¹ š“æ š“¹ š“æ š“¹ š“æš“¹ š“æ š“¹ š“æ š“¹ š“æ š“¹
The dizzness was starting to became hard to ignore
Damm,It was expected,You cant lock yourself in the bathroom after accidentally torturing an innocent and then go free like nothing
Well,In her defense,Carmen did not knew that liam was innocent
Now she was the monster here,Isnt she? She had good meanings,The suspect's actions were too much to get ignored by the police Even if she was there,All by herself,She could still hearing her friend's cries that night....
She didnt know what happen in the woods until she saw wesley,Her best friend,Cover in a blanket while sitting in the border of an ambulance
They were shaking,All bloody.Carmen couldnt let the things like that!! Since childhood carmen was told she was 'way too impulsive' And why would they care?! She only did what was needed
Blood didnt stop coming as the yells didnt stopped. They wanted her to go out of the bathroom. Now.
Of course,The needed was to kidnap liam and torture them just like he did with wesley....
So one good day,She grab choloform and kidnap him in the middle of the night
How fun!,Guts,Blood,Burns,And a little syringue to make sure they dont pass out
The begs where even more satisfactory considering that,It was probabily how wesley beg in liam's hands,he deserve it!
What was not fun Was the call....
After being done with liam,And without any more ideas She decided to call wesley!,Yay!
Little problem,She did not tell wesley anything about her little plan ....Carmen was sure they would accept no matter what.
Or maybe she fogot it? In all the rage?
Staying awake was hard,Breathing was hard. She deserved it thought. They were always right and this wasnt the exception.
or Atleast thats why she throught
It didnt matter now
God,Wesley was mad.
So,So mad :(
And they had the right to be it! It was the wrong person!! Carmen is the heartless monster In here.....Atleast that was Wes said.....
"B-But I did it for.... you!"
"YOU'RE A MONSTERā€” I CANT BELIVE SOMEONE CAN BE THIS...TORTUROUS!"
God,And they used to be friends
Dear fucking God,It was truth....
Liam was aslo bleeding out,Atleast kind of
Carmen was so careless that she sewed up the wound with the first Thing she found,It wouldnt last forever
But the diference is that wesley was there for him
Such a backstabbed!,Or was she?
Did it care anyway?
Why was wesley yelling at her to get out?
Why did they wanted her alive?
Wesley was just there,Outside the bathroom,Trying to get who was once his friend out,For their own fucking sake
Liam was still there too,Watching quietly the blood stain the floor under the bathroom's door;All while squirming slighty In pain
The sedatives of the first aid kit did barely anything,Atleast he wasnt crying
Wesley was scared too,Goddamit,They were way too scared of anything that happen
Why the fuck did they told carmen about it? Knowing how she was?
It didnt matter now,They went mad and they know it.
They aslo knew that she was way too sensitive for reasons that they told eachother on countless outings to eat, walks, just being together
The worst part it was how close they were from eachother,And how that somewhat end in this absolute Mess
Now wesley has to cope with Not one,But two persons bleeding out.
Why do they always need to be so rude?
They felt way too guilty too
Guilty about the person in the couch who didnt hurt them,But everyone thought against it because they say "He look similar"
Well,They didnt know it was gonna end like this.
They didnt know how Mad carmen was for someone hurting them
How much Rage in order to find someone to blame
It wasnt till then that they noticed The stain that they relized it. All the restroom was quiet since they kick the door open to the basment And find their best friend torturing an innocent person,Liam They didnt think carmen could do this and yet? It was there Just there And the worst part its that All was Her fault,Thats what she thought. Carmen was alredy blood-stained when she run upstairs trying to hide from wesley,Who didnt stop yelling at her how much of an horrible person she was And in part,It was right,The problem is that She alredy knew that. She alredy knew that So when wesley saw the blood under the door,open the damm bathroom door, He wasnt ready. He had to leave liam just to... Just to see it? How one of the most important persons in his life was laying om a pool of her own blood.
Well,She regret it.
How do you deal with the thought that you're a monster who deserved to be put down?
Its not like somebody would care anyway,Is not like they would care anyway
by this point,The blood lossed was enough to just
Pass out
Wesley was terryfied. Standing there,In the bathroom door....
Liam was still laying on the couch,In pain after Everything that carmen put them throught horryfing torture...
How was they supposed to fix this?
Was it any way to do it,Was it possible?
And now they were crying.Over the dying figure of someone who tried to be a good person And failed.
š“ƒ  š“ƒ¬š“ƒ 
Carmen was...confusing
A year ago,They were the one in an ambulance
And they werent that...bad
wesley remembered how bad it was... They remember a strong hand dragging them to the white van They do remember the pain,They got beat up and starved But that was nothing compared to what carmen did to liam
What was most heartbreaking it was that there was no "villian" to blame
The ones who actually kidnap them were in fact,An entire gang.
They got confused following instructions and end up getting the wrong guy
Wesley
The gang promised them that,If they didnt say a word they would free them and never meet agaim
Wesley accepted
And now they're here
With two people on the ambulance
All because they didnt talk...and because carmen went insane
was it her fault tho?? Wanting revengue for her friend??
Was it wesley's fault? They were too focused on trying to keep liam alive they didnt notice when carmenā€” ... Carmen was only concern. It was her fault the way she decided to be ruthless about it But she didnt deserve...death. She thought she did tho That was wesley's fault.
Wesley was shocked when carmen,Practically drunk called him to say to him that she kidnap one of the suspect and gut him alive.
And other unspeakable stuff that left Liam way more broken than Wesley. All in one night.
The second worst night!ā€” who would guess it...
Wesley tried to get an first aid kit being on the restroom, trying to atleast help liam
Even so,They did not measure their words....
Carmen felt hurt. Attacked,Even so!
by a Friend. That she thought she could trust... But could she? They instead called her inhuman and disgusting Because? Just for wanting revengue? Camen felt alredy sick when she lock the bathroom door and got left alone with her thoughts... Thoughts that didnt stop ominously chanting what wesley said. Liam was innocent you heartless monster.
Liam was innocent.
Liam was fucking innocent
All this time it was wrong
Because liam. Was. Innocent.
There was no one to blame more than the monster that looked back in the mirror The monster that did all of that to an innocent person The monster that cried while hearing who was supposed to be their friend yell at her for all that she has done Nothing but a fox that deserved to be put down
She was gonna get killed anyway,If she didnt do it,The police would.
So...she did it
Eventually wesley give up and just stay,Trying to keep liam alive
Wesley thought that carmen would just hide in the bathroom
The police would kick the door open and all would be over
Carmen felt backstabbed.
Wesley wouldnt even care,Probabily.
He did.
He did when they understood that it went more far than that....
She was dying. Atleast liam was stable She wasnt. Wheb the ambulance finally arrived to the place,Wesley finally got to open the door snd rushed to her The cuts in the wrist were too deep. Too bad. While he tried to hold on her,To just try to stop the bleeding and made her sit up,To just have a last moment!... She lean in his ear whispered with hatred,Her voice straned because of the blooe loss
:"Hypocrite."
the whisper of the devil. A self-proclaimed demon
Wesley was destroyed
Liam was healing
And carmen died. That very night,Commited suicide
All because wesley went mad. All because they didnt say a word
All because carmen was impulsive,And ruthless
All the pain for revengue,All the death for guilt
All for nothing at all.

It had been a while since Connor experienced his whole body freezing on the spot upon seeing a face he hadn't expected to see. It couldn't be her, could it? 'It must be Alyeria.' He thinks to himself before making his way to the roof of the building beside him. He followed her from above until he was sure it was her. The young man safely drops down from the roof, landing upon his feet in the ally across the street from her. "Aunt Fred?" He calls out to her as he waits for the walk light to signal for him to cross. Connor felt his guilt adding up within him as he approached her before stopping an awkward amount of space away.

Whumptober 2023 - Day 31 - Gladiator/Slave AU
I did it!! I made it through all 31 days of Whumptober!!
This one gave me a hard time to start with, just trying to think of an idea, mostly because I was nearing burnout. But once I actually got the idea (based on something Izzy and I brainstormed at one point) it flowed pretty easily!
This of course takes place a good bit after the other pieces I wrote for this au this month, after theyā€™ve gotten to know each other. Bruno belongs to the lovely and wonderful Izzy!
Taglist: @painful-pooch , @sssunshinebreeze
The Shadow of Death Masterlist
Tumblr media
No. 31: ā€œI thought that I was getting better.ā€
Contains: lady whump, implied past noncon, fear of noncon, guilt, shame, self-deprecating thoughts, slavery
.
.
ā€œYouā€™re so stubborn!ā€ Kamaria groans, throwing her head back. ā€œWhen are you ever going to stop trying to get me to take the bed? Itā€™s not going to happen!ā€
ā€œIā€™m stubborn?ā€ Bruno puts one hand on his chest as if aghast. ā€œYouā€™re the one who refuses to take the bed! Iā€™m just trying to be a gentleman!ā€
ā€œIā€™ve told you, you need it more than I do. Youā€™re the one going out and fighting nearly every day. You need the rest.ā€ She pokes playfully at his arm, something sheā€™d never have dreamed of doing not that long ago. With Bruno, though, everything is different. She feels more relaxed, more like a person, than she has in years.Ā 
ā€œYouā€™re just too stubborn to take care of yourself. The most stubborn man Iā€™ve ever met.ā€ With a final poke, she wanders away from the bed, back toward the corner where she usually sleeps.Ā 
He follows her across the small room. ā€œWell youā€™re certainly the most stubborn woman Iā€™ve ever met. Wouldnā€™t even speak for so long I was convinced you were mute. Wonā€™t take anything I offer you, wonā€™t listen to anything I say -ā€
Kamaria whirls around to face him, chin jutted and eyebrow raised. ā€œMaybe I just donā€™t like you.ā€ They both know that isnā€™t anywhere near true, though actually admitting how he makes her feel is one area where she really is stubborn.Ā 
Brunoā€™s eyes are sparkling with playful mischief. ā€œNow listen hereā€¦ā€ His hands land on her shoulders, bumping her back into the wall.Ā 
Whatever he might say next melts into a meaningless hum. Kamariaā€™s body reacts automatically, muscles going limp and expression blanking as her breath sticks in her chest.Ā 
Sheā€™s been pinned like this many times before. Itā€™s best if she just lets it happen, and if her mind is as absent as possible.Ā 
But then his hands fall away. Vaguely, she registers that heā€™s stepping back, and his voice comes into focus again when he calls her name. She blinks, and her lungs suddenly resume working. Her eyes dart back and forth, taking in Bruno, his distance from her, the crushed look on his faceā€¦and it dawns on her what, exactly, she just did.
ā€œKamaria, Iā€™m so sorry, I didnā€™t mean -ā€
ā€œDonā€™t.ā€ Her voice comes out in a croak. Shoving away from the wall, she brushes past him and walks the few steps to her corner. The fear and dread that had set in so instantaneously are still there, gripping her chest, and the fact that sheā€™s feeling that about Bruno is sickening. She sinks to the floor, wrapping her arms around her knees as tightly as possible to try and hide the trembling.
ā€œI wasnā€™t thinking. You know I would never -ā€
ā€œI said donā€™t.ā€Ā 
She does know. She hasnā€™t always known, but she does now, she trusts him, which is something she never thought sheā€™d say about any human male, ever. And thatā€™s the main reason, besides the instinctive fear, that sheā€™s so shaken up right now. She hates herself. Her stupid self had to turn pliable and pathetic just because the position she ended up in reflected one used against her many times in the past. Now sheā€™s made Bruno feel guilty, which he doesnā€™t deserve. It feels like sheā€™s erased months of progress in their relationship in one brief moment.
Sheā€™d been getting so much better. Lifeā€¦Brunoā€¦everything was so much better. She hasnā€™t had to be afraid in so long, heā€™s even protected her from the guards that want to make advances.Ā 
But now itā€™s like sheā€™s right back where she started, curled up in this corner, unable to even look at him.Ā 
ā€œKamaria.ā€ He crouches down to her level, but stays back to give her plenty of space. ā€œTalk to me? Please? I want to know what youā€™re feeling.ā€
In her periphery, she can see how devastated he looks. But she canā€™t talk to him. Sheā€™s too ashamed of what she is, too afraid that sheā€™ll look at him and see an assailant - her master - instead of the kind, caring man sheā€™s come to know. She buries her face in her knees and stays silent.
After a long moment, Bruno releases a shuddering breath. ā€œIā€™m sorry,ā€ he whispers. ā€œIā€™ll leave you alone.ā€
She hears his footsteps retreating. He canā€™t go very far in the tiny room, but only a minute later the food slot on the door opens, and she hears him talking to someone out in the hall. Locks click, and the door creaks. Kamaria almost lifts her head, almost says something to stop him. If theyā€™re letting him out of the room, it can only really be for training or a fight, and heā€™s already so tired all the time. He doesnā€™t deserve to have to leave just because sheā€™s such a mess.
But she hesitates, frozen in place, and the opportunity is gone. The door shuts, and the room is empty. She didnā€™t want to talk to him. She doesnā€™t want to be alone with her thoughts and her steadily growing guilt, either.Ā 
Kamaria gives in to the burning behind her eyes and lets the tears flow.

Closed starter for @thetorturedmusesdept (Kida x Milo)
Tumblr media
Kida's heart dropped at the sight in front of her. She hadn't gotten to him in time to protect him. He had protect her and she failed him. She felt it like a pit in her stomach at the sight of him laying there, dead. She ran to his side and dropped to her knees beside him. "Milo..." She placed her hands on his cheeks. "I am so sorry." She was really struggling to get the words out. She bent down and rested her forehead on his, wondering if there was a way that she could have prevented this, saved him.
She needed to get him home. Get him out of the streets and somewhere safe. If it was true what they said about this city he might wake up. Come back to her. But she still felt like she should have been able to do something to keep him from this pain. She was luckily strong and able to sort of carry him home. It was difficult, but she would do it, for him. Get him home and safe. It was the least she could do.
Finally she managed to get him home and laid him down on her bed. She didn't know what to do. She needed to help him but how could she. She took the crystal from her neck and went to heal the wound but there was no wound to heal. Still she placed it to his chest, sending out prayers to her gods, her parents to bring him back to her. She needed him. "Please come back to me, my love. I need you." She placed her hands on his cheeks, pressing a kiss to his lips. She wouldn't leave his side. Bringing a chair up beside the bed, sitting down on it to wait. Her crystal still on his chest. She didn't want to move it from him, in case it might help him. Eventually she did fall asleep, her head on the side of the bed beside him, while sat in the chair.

Logan had packed his bags with his key items to move back into the school. One bag was slung over his shoulder as he walks into Charles' office with just two knocks as he opens the door. "So, how many of the kids complained bout me missin some classes? Given what happened on Valentine's day, figured it was better if I made myself scarce." The last thing he wanted was to lose control inside of the school and have a repeat of the will be famed Westchester incident. A day Logan could never erase from his mind no matter how hard he tried. @mischiefxmuses

hannah already was having the roughest of times; trying to comprehend how she was alive.. that night- she saw beth- die.. a memory burned in the back of her mind; she wandered why she wasn't the one to go.. why beth couldn't of been the one to make it- but.. it's when she remembers, she didn't make it.. she was stuck- and starving.. starving so much she found herself forced to eat what remained.. -guilt that stuck with her; but after that.. after her survival kicked in- everything went black.. she was simply a shell of who she formerly was- not hannah washington- younger sister- twin to beth- best friend.. - a fool, no.. she was taken over by a parasite- the wendigo spirit.. it ate away at her mind; using her solely as a meat suit.. now.. here she stood, at least when she was dead.. mind turned off- she didn't have to face her consequences.. realizing - beth was probably still dead- everyone probably found them- and realized hannah ate beth.. -but did she even want to see her friends? she should've, right? but it wasn't just guilt that ate away at her.. it was anger- she died.. all for a cruel prank.. beth died because of the prank.. -she had to wonder, how did josh hold up? -.. sam, how was she.. the only true friend she had from that group- that night.. but before her mind had more chance to travel; brown eyes spotted a familiar face.. josh, her heart instantly dropped to the pit of her stomach; nausea washing over.. tears couldn't help but to well up in her eyes, "josh?" the girl called out; "-is that really you?" she countered; maybe part of her afraid this was another prank.. but how- she wasn't back home, -and her brother wouldn't do this to her.. but was this a mirage- a hallucination.. was her mind this sick? but still, she was naive afterall and bit the bullet.. walking closer, "-please tell me it's you,." she cried, "-i've missed you so much, big brother." words she meant; she wanted to run into his arms.. but knew- knew that wasn't an option not until he opened his arms first.. how would he react- it's not everyday your dead sister comes back, -that's not a thing that happened.. but- her mind could hardly think mind over reason.. she was just relieved to see him.
