THE FORBIDDEN GAME 4:
THE SHADDOW QUEEN
Disclaimer: Fanfiction says it all, I believe.
Setting: 5 months after The Kill
Jenny spun the ring Julian had given her around on her finger, her eyes downcast. Julian had defiantly changed her, changed them all. She never would have had the courage to do this before the shadow man gave his life for her. Actually, Jenny had to admit she wouldn't have even thought of doing this before Julian.
"I don't think we really have a future together, Tom. Not after what happened in the shadow world."
Tom turned his head away so Jenny couldn't make out his expression, "Irony really bites, doesn't it. I was just about to say the same thing. You've just saved me the trouble of finding a time."
As Tom said that, the lump in Jenny's throat dissolved, "We can still be friends then?" Jenny asked, quietly.
"Course Jenny," Tom said, tilting his head back for one final kiss. With tears pouring down her face Jenny granted his wish and the Tom-Jenny unit ceased to be one.
