Part Ten: Payback

She sat on her couch, not really knowing at all what was about to approach her, but she began to realize it when the crow flew into her house, followed by a woman's heavenly voice.

"You remember that promise we made a few nights ago Pandora?" Jen strolled into the room, clothes riddled with holes and tares.

"Jesus. I didn't expect you to be there." Pandora put her gun back on the table and let a sigh escape her lungs. "Yeah I remember."

Well. The deal is off."

With incredible speed unseen by any normal eyes, Jen moved across the room and grabbed Pandora's head, one hand on each side of her head, thumbs pressing into her eyes.

"There's something I want you to experience before I off you."

Jen's thumbs sunk nicely into the eye sockets of her killer, transmitting memories and emotions and pains from her death.

"Can you feel it? Do you know how much that hurt! I FUCKING HATE YOU!!! NOBODY LOVES YOU AT ALL PANDORA! NOT EVEN YOUR FUCKING MOM!!!"

A wet pop sound was made as Jen's digits were removed from her head, letting the body fall back on the couch. The psych ward should accept this newcomer rather easily. This particular patient wont ever even talk, she'll just spasm and scream from memories of pain and pure hurt.

"I hope you live a long time bitch, you deserve to." Jen exited the house through the open window, but only after calling the cops. She sat in the tree outside, watching as the cops and paramedics arrived. "Its all over now. What happens next bird?"

Caw.

"You did good Jen, and now its time to go back home."

She smiled.

"Good, I miss Jack."

Caw.

"Yeah, I know, but what you didn't know was that he was with you the whole time, right beside you. Helping."

"Where?"

Caw.

"It was me Jen. I love you. Let's leave this place of pain and misery and go home."

"Yes. Let's."

A large bolt of lightning struck through the air, slamming hard into the tree, searing the silhouette of a crow in flight in the trunk, and taking the two lovers far away.
