We did it. I did it. The Circle defeated Black John , we killed him. For good. Why wasn't I overwhelmed with a feeling of joy? I could feel that Black John was gone forever, but I felt something else. Some feeling that I couldn't describe was tugging at my heart. I felt like I was missing something. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and turned to face the Circle, with my face in somewhat of a forced smile. When I opened my eyes all I saw was red. But this time it wasn't the red of Faye's nails that I was seeing. No it was horrible the worst sight in my life! It was as if defeating my father had no purpose. It was as if he lost, but at the same time, he won.
So many thing were running through my head. Surprisingly enough the first thing I wondered was what had happened to Nick, he was here before, but now he wasn't. Was he OK? Did anything happen to him, I wouldn't be able to live if he was hurt. I tried to calm down and listen to the waves ad they crashed against the shore. The sound that always seemed to calm me down. But it was useless. It could not soothe me now. Not at a time like this.
I felt like I was on a roller-coaster. Laughing as the ride made me feel free, but the just as the laughing ends the nausea sets in, like it was when I was a kid, always regretting the cotton candy I had stuffed my face with. My life was becoming an analogy how pathetic. I actually couldn't believe how clearly I was thinking after such a crazy thing happened.
I didn't understand how it could happen, but when Sean said "with the power of blood." The Power listened, and I saw ten bodies with all the blood spilled over the floor of a house that wasn't even supposed to be real. I couldn't comprehend what had happened and as I looked at the ten bodies, bodies of the best friends I ever had! Bodies of witches that were supposed to be unstoppable! I couldn't move I couldn't believe my own eyes! And suddenly I felt darkness taking over and I welcomed it. I needed to escape from this scene and not just for now. No I wanted everything to go dark forever. And then everything turned black.
