Tears of an Angel
Prologue
When had it all become so dark?
Run or die. She was afraid of tripping, she could almost feel their bites, their claws digging into her skin.
When had life lost color?
And then, she would be no more, Emma Overland would stop being. Her eyes were burning and she could not see a way out.
Where was HE?!
Trees, trees, always trees. No matter how hard she ran, all she could see were trees. Was this supposed to be the end? She would die in the middle of the forest, alone, scared.
He promised it.
Jack had died because of her, if she hadn´t existed, Jack would still be alive. And her parents, well, she would not exist, so they would enjoy a great child without another one killing him.
He fucking promised it!
But no, maybe her life was worthless, maybe she shouldn´t live. But Jack´s sacrifice was definitely NOT worthless. She had saved Saya by distracting the wolves, so even from death, Jack had saved a child.
Just a lie.
A root in the way. A woman who didn´t pay attention. A pack of hungry wolves.
That was all it took for Emma Overland to end her life.
And to think that somedays, she had planned worst ways for it to end. Now that she had saved that girl, Emma had revitalized. She wanted to live, and to see Saya grow into a beautiful lady. The kind of lady her brother had expected her to be.
"I promise, everything will be fine"
And as life slowly left her, she could only laugh at the irony. Jack had died to save his little sister, but she died the day he did.
Wasn´t it funny?
Someone watching would think of her as crazy. How else would they qualify someone who was laughing hysterically as wolves slowly killed them?
Maybe she was a little insane after all.
Liar, you are liar Jack, but you will receive what you deserve when I meet you again…
Emma Overland was no more.
