Did he not realize the task he set before her? It was like asking a fish not to swim. But as much as she tried to deny his request...She couldn't fight the urge to do just as he said. So taking the hundred he gave her she went to the cheapest hostel in the slums. Got a room...And then proceeded to try and do this whole clean thing.
So far? Wasn't working. It wasn't even a hour into her I'm not gonna touch this shit before Serenity was running out the door and heading towards Nico's place. Just another score..It would be the last she swore.
"Stop. You know...Please."
But the companion at her side would not give up. Nor would the others that felt she could see and feel them. Serenity truly felt as if she was dying..The pain that ripped threw her head..Bracing herself against the bridge she would gasp for breath...Almost instantly she could feel Zac's phantom arms curling around her...The cold breath against her neck...But even among the emotions and the voices of the restless swirled around in her mind..There was something else.
A woman. She sat at a table cards laid before her...Serenity could smell the sage that burned near by hear the the shaky breath of another in the room. Serenity could feel the woman's pain..Her being tore between duty and doing what she always wanted to.
The smell of blood hit Serenity. She didn't know where it came from as she stared down at the blood on her hands. Her nose it had begun to bleed. As the vision went deeper...A blond woman...The same from the last glimpse. Only this time she stood staring at a man...Her heart it begged for death...A fight..A great battle between woman and vampire..There was blood every where...Next thing she knew the male laid dead. His dead heart in the palm of the blond woman...A victory...Yet..To this woman...It was a loss. She still lived....
No she didn't she lay broken on the ground...Near death...And praying it would take her completely over.
Crumpling to the ground Serenity would curl up...A blood pooling on the snow. Was always the downfall of visions..The nosebleeds were could kill you. In the back of her mind she could hear the cars as the drove by...Could hear Zac's voice trying to bring her back to this place...
But all she felt was the hurt..The need...No the demand to die. It was ripping at her...It chewed at her soul....Pushing up Serenity pushed passed the people...She needed something...To numb this...Nico was already in sight...Just moments and she could chase the pain away...But where the turn to the bridge that lead towards the Church of eternal life and the path to Nico came...
Serenity took that of the church...The closer she got the stronger that emotion was...Climbing up onto the ledge Serenity would stare into the black waters...Thinking how easily this could be ended...Did Serenity want to die? No. But the one in her vision did. The cold icy hands of Zac pulling at her..But failing...
