Revenge, Pain and Regret

Chapter 13: Nutria

Nutria continued to row her way across the never-ending 'looking' ocean, which was the path that she had to take. She had used her powers to create a canoe out of seaweeds, coral, and other underwater plant life, and she had seen a long thin wooden pole floating in the water and decided to use that to row her way to her destination.

My sisters think that they'll find a way to a path but I've ensured to make it almost impossible. And even if they eventually find a way, I've gotten a great head start. Plus I added a little clause to the contract that will make it a bit less easy for them to get to me quick enough to stop me. (Nutria's thoughts)

Nutria sighed. Her sisters would definitely try to find a way to stop her; she knew it. One would do it because their mother LOVED humans while the other because she probably felt that humans didn't deserve to die because they (the sisters) wanted revenge for what happened all those years ago.

But Nutria wanted revenge. The highest price of all. Because, the Grim Reaper's job did involve mostly 'reaping' humans. But that wasn't why SHE wanted to do it. Nutria blamed her mother for what happened all those years go. She also hated Grim but after checking things out for herself and without her sister Deirdre yapping about how PERFECT their mother was, realized that Grim in the end didn't cause their suffering. Her mother did.

Why did you have to commit suicide Mother? Lots of women moved on after being rejected, why couldn't you. Hatria doesn't know it but I pity her condition more than even Deirdre. Deirdre just keeps filling Hatria's head with garbage of how perfect and loving our mother was. If she was so perfect and loving, why did she decide to harm us? We were just babies Hatria and she decided to burn us along with Deirdre who was pretty much a toddler then. And with Hercules Fire no less. Sure regular fire wouldn't kill or harm Hatria and I in any way but still. Hatria now has a permanent affliction of just feeling mainly pain and in her true form, looking like a freak. I remember the days when magic wouldn't work on her to change her appearance. How she cried and hid herself because how ugly she felt and how ugly people perceived her to be. In the end I also considered her ugly. But I considered Deirdre even uglier over time. At first I was under her web of lies too. Our mother was perfect and Grim was a monster. But I eventually got passed that and realized that our eldest sister had decided herself to throw out the fact it was mother who set the house on fire nearly killing us all. Instead she uses Grim as an excuse and refused to listen to anything that claimed otherwise (not blaming Grim). I hate her for her inner ugliness. It's never beautiful to put up a person who did what my mother did on a pedestal. But worse yet, my own sister tricked us into putting mother on a pedestal too. But I know that I'm not the only still that isn't clouded by this lie. I know that another sister understands what I'm planning to do. She may not agree with it. But I know that she understands. (Nutria's thoughts)

"I will reach my destination first," Nutria said with great determination, "and when I do," she said darkly, "humans are history."

Done.

Death's Soulmate: Yes I know that the chapter is EXTREMELY short. Anyway, review.
