I could see it watching. Always watching. Is black-shadow, moonless-night-dark eyes staring. Staring at me. It gazes and it follows. Follows me everywhere I go. I can see its shadow upon the empty ground, black as its wings. It was there when it happened. It was there, laughing, crowing its superior power. I could hear-see it. It caused that thing. It was there, watching as you fell, watching, watching. It watched as the blood pooled, as the tears fell, and it laugh-croaked. I remember glaring at it, white-fire-blood-hatred cursing through me. I screamed at it then, screamed, and shot at it, and tried to kill it as it killed me—my heart.
I ended up here, in this white-fire place where there is no ending, beginning, no middle, no anything.
Just me and the raven.
Together.
Forever.
'Til the end of time.
