16. No More Sorrow
Jinx staggerd into the oom, staring at Cybog's body. Her mind tried to wrap around this horrid event, but she couldn't manage it. Cyborg couldn't be dead. Machines don't die, his mechanical half should keep him alive...shouldn't it?
-Are you lost in your lies?
Do you tell yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise?-
She lookd up at Slade, and down at the body. Cyborg wasn't the only one. Her mystic senses weren't very strong, but she could feel the deaths clinging to Slade. They...they were all dead.
-Replaced freedom with fear
Taded money for lives-
She collapsed, clinging to Cyborg's remains. The power inside her swelled. She couldn't take it any more.
-I'm aware of what you've done-
Teas running down her cheeks, she tilted her head back...
...and screamed.
"NO!"
-No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes-
The power erupted from her body in endless waves. Striking out in a wash of pink light, it devoured the flame creatures, broke the enchantments on the building, consumed the very essence of the world around her. And it wouldn't stop.
-Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced-
The whole world seemed to flinch at the power being unleashed. Slade stared at the girl...he one he thought would be easy to destroy...and wondered: could he have misread the cards?
-I see pain, I see need-
She met his gaze.
-I see liars and fiends
Abuse power with greed-
Her hair had come undone from its usual style, and floaed around her head like a miasma. The sheer magnitude of power coming of of her was more than her body could handle easily, and rivers of blood flowed from her eyes, following the channel left by he tears.
-I had hope, I believed-
As she stood up, he realized...she looked like a banshee.
-But I'm beginning o think that I've been deceived-
She stared at him, and pointed at his heart. Her voice sounded raw, hollow, as she spoke, like it came from beyond the grave.
"You will pay for what you've done!"
-No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes-
The air shuddered, and hollow wailing could be heard from all around.
-Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced!-
She slowly began to walk towards him, and he staggered back, suddenly consumed by fear.
-Theives and hypocrites!
Theives and hypocrites!
Theives and hypocrites!-
With each step the power gathered, and she stroked he pink waves of light almost tenderly, lost in agonized memory.
-No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes-
A hollow tearing echoed behind Slade, and he turned to see he was backing towards a rift in space-time, torn open by the overwhelming waves of power.
-Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced-
As she stalked towards him now, the power gathered in her hand, becoming a blade.
-No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes-
She aimed the blade at his heart.
-Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced-
And with an unearthly howl, she lunged.
-Your time has come to be replaced-
The blade went right through his chest...
-Your time has come to be erased!-
...and the momentum carried them both into the rift.

Elf King Chapter 01
Storm clouds gathered within the sky. The sun shone through the single mouth of the darkness, shining on the coronation chamber. On occasion, the spires of the sages would be struck by a wayward lightning bolt, but no power came of it, it wasn't yet time for the event.
Sebastian sat in the chamber, waiting for the coronation. The last king was unjustly slain. On that day, Sebastian and his wife, Ilena, had been invited to feast with the king. This feast also served to unite the greater knights, Sir Nameless among them, to strategize. A threat from the people of a nearby land sang bitterly for their people and rumors said the heathens comman

A New Home
Garfield wouldn’t stop smiling until they reached the castle. Rachel was going to be living in there, with him. She would have 2, no, 3 rooms for her things. They would probably hire a maid. She would live like a princess. Who knows, with some time, she might become a princess.
The Green prince couldn’t deny his feelings for her. She was in his dreams for peat’s sake! What part of that doesn’t scream ‘I’m in love with you’? She was beautiful and she understood him. They don’t get much better than that. She was perfect.
There was one thing about her that he didn’t quite get, though. In h

Hibiscus Coast (08/04/16)
THe sea sends summer storms
Lashing on the pebbled beach
And hibiscus shiver in the sleet
Bright tendrils stalwart 'gainst
The pelting of a darkened cloud
They'll raise their tattered petals
Tomorrow to the sky
And drink of their defiance
Beneath the unclouded summer sky.

his chapter hurt to write, since I could feel Jinx' pain as I wrote it. Thankfully, the flow of the music dictated a pace that made it easier to get through.
Two more chapters to go...
