Kira's POV
My mom couldn't teleport anymore; she was exhausted already. Her breathing was ragged and she was sweating profusely. At that moment, I wished my powers could just come back, but it was only wishful thinking.
"Please let my daughter go," she begged. "You can have me, but please let her go," she added as tears rolled down her eyes.
The entity laughed ominously, coming closer to where she stood. Mom placed me behind her, carefully shielding me.
Tears rolled down my eyes as there was nothing I could do. I cracked my head for things to do to free myself from the shackles of the illusion, but there was nothing.
Shortly after, I saw tendrils snake themselves all over my mom's body, gradually becoming tighter until she burst.
