Carmen sighed as she walked into the kitchen. Lily looked up at her, and Carmen (remembering why she wasn't talking to Lily) glared.
"Don't be so mean to him, Lily. He's only little."
"Oh, and you're nice to him?"
'Yes, I am actually! You're just being a bitch!"
"Look who's talking!"
"Ooh, somebody's a grumpy cow today." Elektra said.
"Ugly, grumpy cow." Lily corrected.
Carmen felt her eyes prickle. She picked up one of the glass plates, not even stopping herself, and she went to throw it.
Faith grabbed her arm. "Carmen!" she said, snatching the plate from her. "You could have seriously hurt someone!"
Of course. Never mind what they are doing to her, but if she attempted to do anything to them, she'd get into trouble.
"Just leave her, Faith. She can't take being called anything. She's a bitch, a cow, and she's really stupid." Lily said, rather childishly. "And she spends way too much time in front of a mirror, so I'm surprised it hasn't cracked yet at her ugliness."
Okay, that was it. Carmen walked towards Lily, clenched her hand into a fist, and punched her, hard.
Lily reeled back with a scream, clutching her eye. Carmen then turned and walked out of the kitchen.
"Carmen, get back here!" Mike shouted, but Carmen ignored him, running up the stairs. She walked into Elektra's room and began smashing and tearing everything she could find. She messed up her bed covers, sent things flying everywhere, before moving to Lily's room and doing the same.
Carmen threw something glass at the wall but let out a gasp of pain as it rebounded and shattered on her arm, cutting all the way down.
But…it felt like…she was at peace. Carmen walked out of Lily's room, leaving her arm to bleed.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Mike shouted as he ran towards her.
The kids appeared behind him as Carmen backed away, her arms still bleeding freely. "Leave it!" she hissed.
Mike stopped short, staring at her. "Did you do it on purpose?"
Carmen looked down at her bleeding arm, behind Mike at the kids, then at him. "Sort of."
He looked alarmed. "Why?!"
Carmen looked at her arm that didn't have any cuts, then looked to her right. One of Sapphire's art tools had sort of broken and she'd left it here…but Carmen could still use it.
She lunged for it, grabbing the sharpest part and placing it on her un-cut arm.
But before she could do anything, somebody grabbed her, throwing the paint tool away.
"No, Carmen, stop!" Johnny said, his arms tightly round her, not seeming to care that he was starting to get pretty bloody too.
However, before Carmen could speak, she felt her eyes roll back and she passed out.
