So this is my first story/song fic so please rate and review!
Disclaimer: I Don't Own.
It's been a year since the remnant was removed, a year since…..since. tanith mentally choked just thinking about thatnight. Don't get her wrong it is great to be free of the remnant but….but. No she just couldn't bring her self to face the truth of what happened that night. It was because of that night that she bought the Hurricane. The Hurricane is the most powerful motorcycle she owns, and tonight she will once again allow her self to be carried away.
Tank is full, switch is on
Night is warm, cops are gone
Rocket bike is all her own
It's called a hurricane
Yes, even though she hates to admit it the bike is nothing more that a tool, a weapon. A weapon that she uses to shield her self from all of the pain, which is greater than any physical torture, trust her she knows torture.
She told me once it's quite a ride
It's shaped so there's this place inside
Where if you're moving you can hide
Safe with in the rain
She used to never ride in the rain until that…. Well never mind. At first it was a mistake, hell she didn't even notice the rain until she stopped. But, soon she found it was a great way to hide the tears, and hide from the cops.
She wants to run away
But there's nowhere that she can go
Nowhere the pain won't come again
But she can hide
Hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane
She got the Hurricane shortly after that horrible night. She had been running away when she totaled her old bike. Skulduggery had offered his mechanic to her but instead she opted for a faster bike, although, she did keep the handle bars of the old bike, for old times sake. Yes, the Hurricane has taken her far; it even took her to kill Billy-Ray.
Tell the truth, explain to me
How you got this need for speed
She laughed and said "it might just be
The next best thing to love."
Thinking about the reason that she got the Hurricane made her hand automatically grab the locked that hung next to her heart. Turning it over in her hand she inspected its golden curves in the florescent light of the gas station. Slowly with shaking hands she opened the locket and stroked the picture inside. She gazed lovingly at Ghastly's photo as a single tear fell from her cheek.
Hope is gone and she confessed
When you lay your dream to rest
You can get what's second best
But it's hard to get enough
She thought about the way that he willingly sacrificed his life to pull the remnant from her, she remembers awakening and finding him slowly dying, she remembers holding him until he breathed his last breath. After he died she ran, away from all the pain, away from his body, away from the memory of the last words he said before she got possessed.
She wants to run away
But there's no where that she can go
No where the pain won't come again
But she can hide
Hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane
Feeling the tears coming, she quickly tucked the locket back next to her heart and climbed onto the Hurricane. She allowed the bike to take her away, she allowed her self to be taken away with the wind.
We saw her ride so fast last night
Racing by a flash of light
Riding quick, the street was dark
A shining truck she thought was parked
It blocked her path, stopped her heart
But not the hurricane
She was going so fast that she barely noticed the Bentley as she passed. She let the tears flow down her face and she let her mind wonder. She almost missed the truck as it moved into her path.
She saw her chance to slip the trap
There was just the room to pass in back
But then it moved, closed the gap
She never felt the pain
There was a fast jerk followed by a bright light and before she knew what was going on she was standing over the totaled Hurricane. Slowly she watched as the truck drove away. When she turned back to the Hurricane she saw something that made her smile. Ghastly was standing there behind the Hurricane offering her his hand, which she ignored as she flung her self into his arms.
She wants to run away
But there's no where that she can go
No where the pain won't come again
But she can hide
Hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane
She rides the eye of a hurricane.
Valkyrie had just turned to Skulduggery to ask if that was Tanith when she was answered by the horrific sound of screeching metal. She looked up just in time to see Tanith's body fly across the street and the truck drive away from the accident. Skulduggery barely had time to stop the Bentley before Valkyrie had flung her self out of the car. She rushed to her friend's body. No matter how much she wanted to Valkrie could not bring her self to cry over Tanith's death because of the wonderfully peaceful smile on Tanith's face.
They buried Tanith next to Ghastly a short time later. As they left the graveyard Valkyrie quickly glanced back at the graves and she could have sworn that she had seen Tanith and Ghastly standing there holding hand and waving good bye to her.
