Wow, it's been a while since I've updated this, but as some of you might know, my computer had broken and I was unable to update it. But it's fixed now. But for future reference, if one of my stroies hasn't been updated in a while, check my profile page I should have a message up about it. Anyhow, if you can't remember what has happened, go back to chapter 9 for a refresher. If you got all the info in your head then go onward to chapter 10!

Keira could feel the wind gently caress her body as she fell backward. The wind wrapped its form around her like a blanket and whistle in her ears. As speed increased and she silently, without a single yell, fell the wind became harsher and colder tearing through her clothes and ripping in her ears and nailing her skin like razors.

The feel of the painful and cold, ripping wind calmed Keira. And as for most people they would be hurt and fearful of the fall knowing what was coming closer as they fell, but Keira wasn't just anyone anymore. It was a coldness she had grown accoustume to in her heart. A feeling she had grown to embrace and love. A feeling that replaced her once warm and kind heart, which was now like a barren, snow covered wasteland.

A new feeling came into Keira. A thought, a voice, that had been waiting to be fully exposed. A voice inside her screamed. 'No one can understand me! No one will love me! I am alone...I can never be accepted and never will be. I am my own and I am free and freedom is power!'

Keira's eyes shot open and she reached for the whip attached to her belt. She did a 360 in the air and then she extended the whip to grip onto a tree. It wrapped around and she held tight. She swung on the whip and gently decended to the ground, tearing the whip from the tree. And she ran off, to anywhere she could be alone.

-Jak in the mean time was struggling to overcome Dark Jak. The words Keira had left behind were haunting him. Knowing that Keira does truly love him and that she had tried to save him once. She gave her life for him and was given a curse in return for her life. 'I'm the cause of this...and how could she ever forgive me for what has happened to her. She gave it her all...and it's my fault that she is this way. It's like I took her life...'

"AHHHH!" Jak regained control of his body and ran to the edge and peered over to find Keira. But she was gone...

-'Alone...' Keira sat in the dark in a corner of her house. 'I like this feeling...quiet and calm and yet so lonely...' Keira was still wearing her tattered clothes. She had drawn her knees up to her chest and had her arms wrapped around them. Midnight's eyes glowed in the dark. Keira stood, anger and pain poured from the tears that slowly flowed from her eyes. A look came into Keira's eyes that Midnight had never seen before.

"And now Midnight. I'll have exactly what I want." Keira motioned over to something on her floor. Midnight felt a strange tension in the air and ran out the door, as if to seek out someone.

Keira went to her coffee table in her living room and slowly slid a long, sharp butcher's knife off the table. She slowly held it to her wrist. "I wonder if it's sharp enough?" She slowly, with a pleasureful smile upon her face slid it across her arm ever so slowly, watching the wound open. She watched the crimson blood flow and trickle onto the floor. She smiled wickedly almost seeming to enjoy the burning pain. Whatever was on the floor appeared to squirm. "Hm hm hm..." Keira silently laughed to herself.

I know it's a bit of a short chapter but that's all your gonna get for now. But what's really going on? Midnight goes out the house to find Jak, but will he make it to Keira on time or will it be too late? And is Jak really the one who's losing control?

Please R and R! I really appeiciate it! Thanks.
