Light.
Too much heat.
The world falls away.
Too late
No
I'm not
I did it.
For Jonathan, a few feet away.
For Dess, across the street.
For Rex and Melissa, out in Jenks.
For Beth.
For Bixby.
For the world.
I can't breathe.
What will happen to me now?
Sheer power has control
Bursts out in a torrent
Feels like part of me is being ripped away.
Three more times
It worked.
The rip is closing.
Samhain is ending.
Normal time is coming.
But I'm fading away.
And then…
Darkness.
