CHAPTER 10
I began to scream his name. Over and over again at the tops of my lungs. "HEATH! I need you! Heath!"
Then I felt cold arms around me from the front, I couldn't breathe. I knew it was her… I thought of one million and twenty-five things she would do to me. She could squeeze me hard, and slowly, until my backbone broke. Or tow me away from him and hold me captive. She could bite me or completely devour me right here, at this very spot. But then I heard a voice in my ear.
"Don't be afraid, my love. I am always with you. I love you. Do not be afraid. Be strong. Be strong." I felt him kiss below my ear. It was him, alright. Heath released me and turned to Mia Glen.
Then, the clouds parted, flowing off into the west. The moon illuminated everything within sight. It was the largest, full moon I had ever seen in my entire life, even for that world. The stars danced around it in the most beautiful way. If I hadn't been so terrified, I would have drowned my mind in the beauty of this place.
She was looking at me; her long, beautiful blonde hair blowing in the strong breeze. She smiled warmly at me. How young and beautiful she was. Then, she turned to her son and smiled mockingly.
They began to walk in a circle around each other. She was the first to speak.
"Don't you understand Heath, everyone wants you dead." Her cruelty spilled out like a fountain. His face went cold. Then, he was calm.
"I know, mother. I hear the whispers, the stories. I'm the place on this earth were the two worlds met. That scares you mother. That scares everyone."
"I'm not afraid."
He ignored her. "Why did you love him, then? You beat me for hours, proclaiming you love for him, how you never bit him because you loved him that much. That he was too precious and you would never do that to him. And now, you go against all of that? You did this! You brought me here, Mia."
She ignored his words as he had ignored hers. She looked up into the vast sky. "Just like that one night, isn't it Heath….That one night so many years ago?"
She laughed at him, but he didn't seem affected. I watched in awe at his courage, courage I was just now starting to understand. How hard is this for him? I thought. To defy your own mother would be… unbearable.
I put my face in my hands. I heard the sound of metal clashing as I sank to the trunk of the great oak. I was shaking and sobbing. Though I didn't utter a word.
I heard no foul words or grunts from both of them either. I finally had the courage to look up. I saw her with her sword against his. She was roughly pushing hard against him: her grinning face inches from his. His eyes flashed to mine, and they held. Still without looking at her, he thrust her back. She moved back a few feet. They began to circle again.
A light was forming at the very far end of the forest. It stretched across the entire sky along the eastern border. It hadn't quite touched us when I found myself standing.
Morning. Day break. Light...
The light from the glorious sun was moving faster, advancing quickly to us. Light filled the far end of the meadow. Closer……. Closer……
And then, it hit her.
Her beauty shriveled away; her face aged beyond any earthly thing, her hair fried to a crisp, her fingernails were long, mangled and revolting. As was the rest of her.
I gasped and Heath instantly had his arms around me, shushing softly in my ear.
He pulled me behind him and said; "Only sunlight can tell..."
She smiled widely, revealing crooked, brown, misshaped teeth. "Indeed, it does." She took a strand of hair in her fingers and examined it. Then her nails. She looked up and smirked at the sun, which was also larger than I had ever known it to be. She, like my vampire, had no shadow.
I didn't understand. Somehow she knew I didn't. She took the liberty to explain to me.
"The sun reveals to us what we truly are, and forever will be. On the outside, nothing, but an old and used up human." She laughed and continued, "Heath is older than the stars themselves as well as I, but he did not make the decision. I have no life in me, therefore… I look as such."
Well.
She looked me straight in the eye. She spoke to me, sarcastically, "You better love him while you can, darling. Life is so short." She laughed loudly then, throwing her head back. "Or maybe it is that being dead is... So terribly long... Take it from someone who knows." And she winked at me. I shivered in return.
Heath took a step towards her and then took a few steps to the left. Her eyes followed him and her body turned slightly to his. He stared- his face empty of emotion, though completely full of it- into her face. She grinned excitedly to him. They both had such confidence. Yet I knew they both had much fear.
They stopped moving and she tilted her head to the side.
"Do you love her, Heath? Hmm? Will she be yours forever? Would you never let your precious, beautiful Erin go?" she said that last question in a scornful, drown out, baby voice, smiling wickedly.
He looked at me. Then back to her. "Yes. Yes. And never."
Then she grabbed me, instantaneously. Her face went menace. All trace of a smile gone. She pulled my hair back and put her long shining sword to my throat.
"What if you didn't have a choice?" she yelled in hatred.
Surprisingly, he face became soft, gentle. As his eyes locked with mine, I saw a far off look in them. He replied by saying, "I would die right along side her..."
Mia Glen screeched in anger and through me to the ground behind her. She didn't care about me anymore. She wasn't glorified by killing a meager human. She raised her sword fair above her head...
And…….
Then……
He stabbed her in the stomach, and from my spot behind her I saw that the blade cut all the way through. He then, with the weapon still in her, drew a line up to the middle of her back. He pulled his sword out of her and threw it to the ground beside him.
She fell backwards. She landed on the hard ground and turned her eyes to me. Then, back to Heath.
"Lament me, son…," she said with her dying breathe. She then closed her eyes and evaporated into nothing but the tiniest fragments of dust; soon to be carried away by the gentle breeze.
He knelt down and looked at where her body had been. I quickly stood up to heed him.
"Heath," I whispered, breathlessly. I knew he had heard me.
He stood up and turned around. He didn't look at me. His eyes were empty. Cold. Frightening. He still didn't look at me and shoved me brutally out of the way, sending me falling to the ground again. I stood and quietly sobbed his name. He never acknowledged me and disappeared into the wood.
I crawled- weeping extensively- to the great large oak where we had only a few hours ago spoken hopefully, laughed freely, and kissed passionately. I leaned my back against the trunk and pulled my knees to my chest. I buried my face in the space between my body and my knees. I sobbed and cried for I don't know how long. Then I heard a sweet, light, invitingly familiar voice call my name.
I felt a warm hand pull my hair away from my face and behind my ears. I looked up to see Sundevil's radiant smile inches from my swollen, red face. She took my face in her hand and caressed my cheek.
Wiping away tears she said, knowingly, "She's gone isn't she."
I nodded, trying gravely to catch my breath.
She smiled so kindly. "Then why does Erin White weep, so?"
"H-He-Heath," I stumbled broadly over his name
And was about to continue, but she said. "Loves you more than anything and severely needs you right now..." she commented, pushing more hair away from my face.
I nodded and she helped me to my feet. She hugged me then. Long and hard. "And he's not the only one that loves you." She was so wonderful, like a sister to me.
"I love you, too, Sundevil," I cried softly back.
Her lips turned up into a gentle smile and she hugged me again. She pointed to the trees. And I nodded again.
"Show him you love him back," she whispered before walking back to the east.
I entered the forest and tried to prepare myself.
I saw him sitting there with his face in his hands. His back shook so I knew he was crying. I stopped in the doorway, tears in my eyes as well. I wanted nothing more than to help him. He heard my arrival and quickly stood up.
"Erin," he whimpered, hanging his head.
I ran to him and, standing on my tippy-toes, threw my arms around his neck. I held him tight to my body and I felt his arms fold around me as he cried into my neck. I smoothed back his long blonde hair and rubbed his back while saying things to try and calm him.
We stayed like that for a very long time. We sat on the floor but stayed in each others sobbing arms. He shifted and laid his cheek on my chest. I laid my cheek on the top of his head.
"I never thought I'd to it," he whispered to me. "I can't believe she is gone for real, forever."
"I know," I whispered back. "But you can really move on now, Heath. You'll always remember both of them but with this weight lifted, you'll be able to keep going." I lifted his face to mine and whispered, smiling to him, "You don't have to hide ever again."
