Her back arched and her head snapping backward as a foul scream burst from her throat.
Dark energy burst about her, enveloping her entirely.
I was pushed back with a force that slammed me into the ground.
Pain exploded through my body.
I gasped in my blurring eyes and my chest on fire.
And when I looked up, Emilia was there but her eyes—Her silver eyes were lost.
Just emptiness. Just blackness. Empty and lost.
And as she turned to me, a single tear running down her face, she said "I'm sorry Ethan"
She then disappeared into the night.
{Ethan's POV}
The moment she vanished the world was off.
Like something had been ripped off.
As if the air had lost its gravity.
As if the silence itself had become choking.
I was still on the floor, my chest afire, my entire body screaming with pain, but it didn't matter. None of it.
Because she was dead.
