Chapter 11

The long train ride exhausted me but I made it to Cenius city an hour earlier then I would've expected. The place held a plethora of upper class people.

"Crow," Many people smiled and gave a slight tilt of head.

I smiled back though I'm sure the rest of my face is creased with worry.

He won't be awake, he's dead.

He'll never wake up. Never. But hope bubbled inside me like always.

I faced the hospital and took a deep breath.

"Good morning, Crow." The receptionist looked unsurprised to see me, after all I've been here almost everyday. "Seth's condition hasn't changed. I'm sorry."

Her words killed the last of my hope, even though I've heard the same sentence over and over again.

I nodded and went to check on him anyway.

The room was dim and the only sound was coming from the heart monitor.

"Hey, what's up?" A familiar voice whispered.

"Hey, Jack." I gave him a half-way smirk then my eyes trailed towards Seth's face.

His face looked so peaceful. To peaceful. His blonde hair was splayed about on the white pillow and small plastic tubes prodded into his skin. I walked over and sat in the blue chair next to him.

"Crow…It's been two years…" He began.

"So, what?" I said shortly.

Jack's eyebrows came together and what seemed to be like a sigh came from him. "Be reasonable."

I put my head in my hands and spoke between clenched teeth. "I know, Jack, but you don't have to remind me."

Jack sat back and put his arms behind his head- he looked very comfortable.

"You look like your grieving hard," I smiled coldly.

I discovered a look of shock cross his features before he could recover. His arms slowly slid back down to rest on the arms of the chair. He smiled but an icy gaze appeared in his eyes.

"I'm just over it."

I glared at him.

Silence.

"Umm, well, so I heard Linda picked up a junkie." He spoke running his fingers through his hair.

"Her name is Lynn." Jack was really starting to get on my nerves.

"Not from Jane's perspective."

I stood up and heard the chair sliding behind me.

"Jane knows nothing." I almost yelled.

He simply rubbed his chin. "Now this is interesting."

"What did she tell you?" Lynn can't be Kira. Lynn can't be Kira. Can she? No. That's impossible. Kira's gone demented, insane,…evil. Lynn's so sweet, funny, oblivious, and…innocent. Like the old Kira.

I shook my head. "What did she tell you?" I repeated slightly louder.

He opened his mouth then pursed his lips.

I reached over and grabbed Jack's shirt by the collar. "Tell me. Now."

"Ok, ok man, chill!" His eyes looked startled and his hands were tugging back his shirt. "She said it was better off if I just kept my big mouth shut, but here goes nothing,"

I released his shirt and listened intently.

"She believes Lynn is Kira. My personal opinion is that she's full of crap," He shrugged. "but you know Jane, always thirsty for revenge."

I waved my hand to continue. I already know this.

"She thinks Kira is going under cover to destroy us all from the inside out and," He shifted uneasily in his chair. "she said she was going to kill her."

My eyebrows shot up in surprise. "K-kill her?" Fury. "Is she crazy?! Out of her mind?! She could be killing an innocent!"

Jack laughed weakly. "I tried to tell her that it was a crazy idea, irrational, but of course she wouldn't listen."

My fist came down on the table. "You should've told me this earlier!"

"Hey, you need to calm down. Your freaking out, I know your tense and a lot of weird ,emotional things have been going on but chill."

I stared at him. "Jack get lost."

He sighed then the door creaked open. I turned around to see Sephiran standing in the doorway.

"Hello, boys."
