"Unforgivable Me"

"The hardest person to forgive is yourself."

Her ivory hands tightened firmly on the rubber padded steering wheel as her foot pressed heavily on the accelerator. The dull droll classical music echoed through the stylish leather interior of the car as she continued to speed, lost entirely in her thoughts.

…What makes me so exempt from murder? Seifer killed so many when he was under the Sorceresses spell, and he was exiled. What makes me special?…

……the headmaster's wife… Cid never knew a thing…..just an innocent bystander on the sidewalk of destruction…And the orphanage gang, all they knew was that they had to save the world.

…they don't have to live with the sounds of thousands of innocent people echoing in their ears at night. They don't know what it's like to mercilessly crush another's life in their hand like some pathetic bug…

And they say they forgive me…

Edea swerved off the road, transforming her luxury car into an all-terrain vehicle. With impeccable timing, she swerved random trees and bushes judging how much time she had left with the corner of her eye. As the radio began to flood the car with an orchestrated version of "Eyes on Me", Edea's car plummeted into a train heading for Deling City.
