A/N – This is going to be quite the AU story, and some things have to be explained. Nina and Alex Myers are the cousins of the main character in Tru Calling, Tru Davies (her mother Elise is their father's sister). The story is set on Day Three (I know, I'm obsessed) and takes place a few months after the final episode of Tru Calling. In other fanfictions of mine, Eliza Dushku, who plays Tru Davies, is actually the "actress" that "plays" Sarah Henderson. For those who don't know who Alex Myers is, he's my OC and younger brother of Nina.

She looked so peaceful, even with her eyes wide open staring at nothing. Alex noticed the blood that had snaked its way down her arm, deep crimson contrasting with porcelain white. The scar that the torture device had carved into her neck was only just held together by a couple of flimsy stitches. Jack was crouched down near her feet, deep in thought. He looked sad, almost regretful, and Alex could tell that his decision to kill Nina had not been taken lightly.
"Jack, you OK?," Alex spoke quietly as moved out of the shadow and into the weak glare of the ancient light bulbs that hung in the room. The room where Teri had lost her life, where Nina had planned her getaway, and now the room where Nina died and where the game she had played with Jack had come to an end. Jack looked up at Alex with his weary blue eyes.
"Not exactly," Jack replied, as he stood up. He took one last look at Nina, before heading for the door. Stopping a couple of steps away but not turning around, he spoke to Alex.
"You know that it had to end like this, right?," Jack spoke. He knew that Nina was Alex's sister, and that Alex did love her in some way, even if all he showed to everyone else was contempt for her and her actions.
"Yeah, Jack," Alex replied, and as Jack left the room, he walked up to Nina's body. Gently closing her eyes, he pressed two fingers against his lips and touched her cheek with them. As he removed his fingers, he was looking around for something to cover her body until she could be moved to the morgue. Suddenly, he felt himself being drawn back to her face. It happened too quickly for him to really react, but her head moved towards him, and her eyes opened suddenly.
"Help me," Nina asked him, and he felt himself being almost dragged somewhere, with only images of places and people he did and didn't know as clues to what was going on.
