Bad stuff happening, so if you cant handle torture, or anything like that, this is your warning. It doesnt get too graphic, but that's how this chapter ends, and how the next one will begin. So if you cant handle it, you know. Dont blame me, I warned you. Your responsibility now. Anyway, hope you enjoy!

-Aftermath-

"You okay kid?" Toni asked, as Violet came back into the house, with Kya, Damon, and Jesse. Violet gave her a smile as her hand linked with Kya's. Damon was slightly behind them holding the box of Violet's things. Jesse checked his phone quickly, replying to a text from Emily.

"Yeah. Everything went fine. We came to an understanding, well… As much as we could." Violet told her, Toni nodded, and leaned back, Kelsi smiled at her.

"Do you need us to go and get some alcohol for the party tonight?" Kelsi asked, Violet shrugged.

"I don't think so, we should be good. Auntie Janice is okay with this tonight right? I didn't ask her about it yet." Violet told them, Kelsi smiled a bit and nodded.

"Yeah, we talked to her, and she's fine with it. So long as you clean up afterwards." Kelsi replied, Violet nodded, and gave her a thumbs up, with a smirk.

"Of course. Me and Kya will be staying in the master bedroom anyway, so we'll definitely clean things up tomorrow." Violet said, Kya nodded, with a slight glare.

"If I have to clean up someone else's vomit again, I'm going to leave you." Kya warned her, Violet nodded carefully.

"I'm sure we'll both be there to help too." Damon chimed in, with a nod of confirmation from Jesse. Toni and Kelsi smiled at the group, as someone knocked on the door. Jesse raised an eyebrow, and went to the door, Violet bounced over with him, Kya just raised an eyebrow. Tsubaki had jumped to her shoulder right before Violet went off.

"It's probably Ariana." Violet explained, Jesse nodded, and opened the door, Ashley smiled, seeing Violet.

"Hey, sis! Who's this?" Ashley asked, Violet smiled and pulled her inside.

"This is my friend Jesse." Violet answered quickly, before pulling Ashley over to Damon, and Kya. "This is Damon, and this…" Violet stopped throwing her arm around Kya. "Is my beautiful, enchanting, cuddly girlfriend, Kya." Violet finished the introductions, Kya shook her head a bit.

""Well… I am happy to meet you all. I'm Ashley." Ashley introduced herself, Damon nodded with a slight smirk.

"I thought your name was Ariana?" Damon asked, Ashley smiled a bit.

"That's my middle name, it's what Alexandria calls me. It's our thing." Ashley explained, Damon nodded. "My full name is Ashley Ariana Bon-Velz." She told him, Damon hummed, pausing in thought for a moment.

"Wait… Your name is Ashley Ariana Bon-Velz, and Victoria's name is Victoria Arianne Bon-Velz… That cant be a coincidence." Damon told her, Ashley nodded.

"It's kind of a tradition in the Bon-Velz family, girls always have something similar like that for a middle name, if they were born around the same time at least." Ashley told him, Damon hummed.

"That's interesting." Damon told her, Violet smiled.

"My family has a tradition too! It's more common and not a weird one… I think…" Violet trailed off, Damon raised an eyebrow.

"Which would that be?" Damon asked her, Violet shrugged indifferently.

"I don't know what it is really… Hey Mom! What's our family tradition thing?" Violet asked, looking into the living room. Toni hummed, and looked up from the tv.

"At weddings, one couple that attends gets engaged that night. Surprisingly not how I proposed to your mother, though that was one plan I had." Toni said, Kelsi raised an eyebrow.

"Was it really?" Kelsi asked, Toni nodded, with a smile.

"Yeah… Remember that wedding a few weeks after the vacation? It was going to be then, but… I just decided fuck it, I'll do it on the beach." Toni told her, Kelsi smiled, and kissed her, but then smirked.

"That's a five in the jar." Kelsi said, causing Toni's mood to deflate, and the brunette to glare at her a bit. "Don't pout in front of company. Go." Kelsi told her firmly, Toni rolled her eyes, and got up, flicking her daughters forehead when she blonde made a face at her.

"Anyway, we should leave soon if we're gonna help set things up for the party." Kya told the group, Violet nodded and smiled jumping up, and wrapping herself around Kya once again.

"Can you carry me?" Violet asked in a light voice, batting her eyelashes at the Guardian, who's blue eye merely twitched in response. She groaned, and carried Violet to the bedroom, knowing that she still needed to grab her bag. "You're so sweet." Violet told her, Kya nodded.

"Only because you're so adorable." Kya told her with a slight blush on her cheeks as they entered Violet's room. The blonde smiled at her.

"Awe!" Was all that came out of the blonde's mouth before she kissed Kya, who smiled into the kiss, before she pulled away.

"We cant get distracted." Kya told her firmly, Violet just nodded, unwrapping herself from Kya, and moving over to grab her bag, throwing the strap over her shoulder, and making sure the actual bag was behind her. She smiled up at Kya, and moved out of the room, with the Guardian behind her. Tsubaki took this time to jump back over to Violet's shoulder.

Violet grabbed the box of her things from Damon, and threw it inside her room. Before she bounded into the living room, giving her parents each a kiss on the cheek. Before Violet reached up, and took Tsubaki in her hands.

"Mommy's going to leave you here Tsubaki, be good!" Violet instructed the small frost ferret who squeaked loudly, before Violet giggled, and placed her on the couch arm. Tsubaki jumped over and ran across the couch to Toni and Kelsi.

"Bye guys! Love you!" Violet told her parents quickly, before leaving the room, and grabbing Kya's hand. Toni chuckled, and Kelsi smiled at her daughter.

"Be safe!" Kelsi exclaimed loudly, Violet smirked back at her.

"I'm always safe, cant get pregnant, that's pretty safe right?" Violet said, Toni glared at her, and Kelsi giggled a bit, Kya rolled her eyes, and Damon laughed. The group left the house, Jesse glancing at his phone.

"Do you guys mind if we go pick up Emily?" Jesse asked, Violet smiled at him.

"Of course not. Let's go, love that girl." Violet replied, Jesse smiled at her, and nodded. The group set off Kya and Violet talking, while Jesse, and Damon talked with Ashley.

"So, are you really Violets sister?" Jesse asked, Ashley nodded, with a smile.

"Yeah. My parents were friends with Toni, and Kelsi. They were having another kid, and Toni and Kelsi saw it as an opportunity. I'm quite happy with how things turned out." Ashley told him, Jesse nodded. "Also, Damon, don't you remember me?" Ashley asked, Damon shook his head.

"No… Should I?" Damon asked her, Ashley shrugged.

"We all went to school when we were younger. Back at the Complex. You, Me, Alexandria, Yuri, Zen, and Roseanna. Me and Zen stayed there, Rose, and Yuri left for San Fransokyo, and you and Alexandria came here. It's funny, we all stuck together… Though, not all of us are still around." Ashley muttered sadly, Damon raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean?" Damon asked, Ashley frowned, and shook her head.

"Roseanna is dead. Apparently someone killed her, I don't know who, or why… Only that when I find them, I'm gonna make them fucking pay. She didn't deserve that." Ashley muttered bitterly. Damon nodded.

"Man, that sucks." Damon muttered, Violet glared at them.

"None of that depressing crap tonight. It sucks, but I want to have a nice time okay?" Violet asked, Kya glared at her, and elbowed her in the ribs. "Ow"

"I know you mean well, but be more sensitive." Kya told her, Violet nodded, with a smile. Ashley smiled, and waved her hand.

"No, it's fine. I get it… So, who is Emily?" Ashley asked, Violet smirked, making a kissy face.

"She's Jesse's girlfriend." Violet teased the brown haired boy, who glared at her, but let out a sigh after a quick moment of thought. Deciding that it wasn't worth falling into the bait.

"Yes, she is." Jesse confirmed, Ashley nodded, with a hum.

"Shame you aren't single, you're kinda cute." Ashley told him, Jesse blushed a bit, and Violet smiled.

"Isn't he though?" Violet asked, moving over to him, and trying to pinch his cheeks.

"Violet, stop it." He hissed out angrily, she just laughed, and continued her assault.

"Kya! Jesse's being mean to me!" Violet whined as Jesse gripped Violet's wrists, and held them. Kya just looked over and glared, reaching for Violet, and grabbing the choker. Gently pulling it towards her, Violet backed off immediately, and went over to Kya obediently.

"Behave yourself Violet." Kya told her firmly, Violet nodded, and smiled at her. She gave Kya a hug, and Kya smiled, rubbing Violet's back. Ashley smiled, and moved closer to the couple.

"So… How long have you been dating my sister?" Ashley asked, Kya smiled a bit, and shrugged.

"Since her birthday. So, about three weeks now." Kya told her, Ashley nodded, Violet smiled, happy that the two seemed to be getting along.

"So… Is Alexandria wearing a choker some sort of fetish thing?" Ashley asked curiously, Kya shrugged, with a light blush.

"It works for that, but originally it was to show she was dating me, and couldn't flirt with other people, as she was inclined to do." Kya explained, Ashley nodded.

"Sounds a bit extreme. But, hey I'm not judging. As long as Alexandria's happy, I'm happy." Ashley told them, Damon tilted his head.

"So, does that mean you two have had sex?" Damon asked them, Kya glared at him, as did Violet.

"None of your business, now is it?" Kya replied quickly, Damon raised his hands up in surrender.

"Touchy, Touchy. In more ways than one." Damon sad with a smirk, Kya rolled her eyes, as Violet glared at him.

"Stop thinking about my cuddly Kya like that." Violet told him protectively, Damon nodded, Ashley let out a sigh, as the group continued on the path to Emily's house.

-Aftermath-The Complex-Zack's Office-

"Are you sure?" Zack asked, with a worried look. Fiona bit her lip, this wasn't good. Vani nodded gravely.

"Yes Sir. They have indeed found, and intend to use the Replica program. We can only guess that means they intend to revive ZaZick." Vani told them, Zack let out a tired sigh, as Fiona rubbed his back gently.

"He's been getting stronger… I can feel him sometimes… When I'm going over reports, reading about my people dying…" Zack informed them, Fiona just looked at him surprised, and Vani frowned, so their plan hadn't been working.

"But, Sir… What about our connection? Does that help?" Vani asked, Zack shook his head sadly.

"Not particularly. It get's rid of the negative feelings… But for the brief moment I do feel them, it's like a gateway… Just a tiny fraction of negativity sends him right back into the forefront of my mind… And we cant be separated, no matter what." Zack told her, Vani frowned.

"Is there anything we can do?" Fiona asked in a worried tone, Zack looked back at her with a smile, pushing off his desk, and wrapping an arm around her, kissing her quickly.

"Just keep me happy, and healthy. I can do the rest. He feeds off my distress, and negative emotions. So long as I keep them away, we can keep him weak." Zack told her, there was another way, but that would require him leaving her, and the worlds behind… He couldn't do that to them, they still needed him to lead the Protectors of Balance.

"Sir… With your permission, I would like to request no more missions for either me, or Charmer. You need both of us, we cannot leave your side." Vani told him, he let out a sigh. They were his best agents, and losing their reports would hurt the Protectors of Balance.

"It cant be done. Vani, no reports can match yours when it comes to classified information, and Fiona, you help me keep in contact with the rest of the Protectors… I cant lose either of those connections yet. I can manage just fine." Zack told them, looking at his papers, and reports, instead of the worried looks on the women's faces.

"If that's what you want babe… But can you at least forget about the reports for a second? I want to spend some time with my husband. Without distractions." Fiona told him, he smiled a bit, and nodded. Shuffling some papers around, he signed a few, before placing them in a pile.

"Vani, can you please send these reports out?" Zack asked, Vani nodded.

"Of course Sir, you just go and relax." Vani told him, Zack smiled at her, and left the room with Fiona. Vani let out a sigh, she hated seeing her Boss in such a state. She grabbed the reports, and made her way throughout the Complex.

"Are you okay? You look… Well, just plain unhealthy. Come on, let's get some food in you, then you can tell me where you came from, okay?"

"I gave you my life… My freewill is yours, my redemption is in your hands, my heart is literally yours. I let you have my life, so why don't you let me carry all of your burdens…" Vani mused to herself, making sure she said none of this out loud.

"You can stay here… No one will hurt you… Um, you never told me your name, I'm Zack. Zack Domino Keire."

That first night was filled with distrust. But only from one side. How could Vani trust this man, who found her on the street, and brought her into his home. Helped her without asking for anything in return, save for her name. It flew in the face of everything she had ever been taught.

"I'm not going to accept that. I helped you because it was the right thing to do. I don't need anything in return."

Her father had always told her that the worlds were filled with horrible people, who only wanted to use, and abuse her. He used himself as an example of this, but also told her that she had no-one else who would accept her. She was a monster, so she had to stay by his side, or else… Worse things would happen to her.

"Fiona set up some towels and clean clothes for you. You can go get cleaned up, the guest room is just across the hall from the bathroom. We can talk more once you've rested up, okay?"

This man, who accepted her without question. Let her into his home without a hint of hesitation. He was gentle, and kind, and loving. She didn't deserve to be in his presence, not without proper payment, not after the things she had done. The lives she had ended just because her father told her to.

"Stop that. You don't need to beat yourself up over it. I don't care about your past, or what you did, okay? I know you're a good person."

He said that after Vani told him what she was. An assassin, trained since she was younger. She took most of the abuse, protecting her sister. When they were older, she made sure her sister got away, so she could live her own life… Then a contract came along, and she killed her target. Seconds later her sister walked into the room, to check on her Fiancé.

"You want to… Serve me? Why? I helped you because it was right. I told you before, I don't need anything in return, okay?"

"You just gave me that confused stare… When I told you that I wanted to serve you… To give my freewill willingly over to you. To let you be in charge of my redemption, let you decide if I was worthy to be forgiven for my sins…" Vani let a small smile slip onto her face, as her mind flashed with memories.

"If you really are sure of this… Fine, I wont deny your request, even if I don't particularly agree with it."

"I had nothing, after I fled my father, and the Children of Darkness. But you… You gave me something to live for. Showed me a kindness I had never known before. The least I could do was give you my life. You saved it, so you deserved to have it." Vani shook her head, as she placed the reports in a box. Ready to be delivered to the other Protectors, in other worlds.

-Aftermath-The Party House-Several Hours Later-

"I bet the two of you couldn't get any closer if you tried." Arthur told Violet, and Kya, the two were sitting on the couch, in the living room. The party was in full swing, loud music, dancing teenagers, most people were drunk, or getting there.

"I'm not sure that'd be possible." Kya remarked, Violet smiled, and got closer to Kya, who was currently wearing a tight white turtleneck sweater. Violet smiled at her, before she snuck her hands under the sweater, fingers ghosting across the Guardians abs.

"We'll have to see about that. I never lose a bet." Violet said with a smirk.

"How the fuck…" Damon muttered, as he walked up to the couch a few minutes later. Kya's sweater already looked tight on her, but somehow… Someway, Violet had managed to squeeze herself inside the sweater alongside Kya.

"I told you I'd win! What do I get?" Violet asked, Kya just rolled her eyes, as Arthur shook his head with a bewildered look.

"I don't exactly understand how you… Did that…" Arthur trailed off, Violet smiled.

"Magic." Violet said, Arthur nodded, as Damon sat down next to the couple. He looked over and noticed a small mark on Kya's neck.

"That a hickey?" Damon asked, Kya glared at him, and Violet giggled, pressing her lips to Kya's neck for a quick kiss, before smiling at him.

"What do you think? I have to prove she's mine." Violet told him, he nodded, and chuckled a bit.

"That's nice. I just didn't expect it at all." He told them, Violet smiled proudly, and Kya glared at her.

"Violet, please get out now. It's getting uncomfortable." Kya told her, Violet pouted.

"But I wanna stay! You're so warm, and cuddly!" Violet exclaimed, Kya glared at her, and put her mouth right up to her ear, whispering so no one could hear them.

"If you don't get out, there's not going to be any fun times for you later." Kya told her firmly, Violet just nodded and tried to wiggle herself out from the bottom. A few seconds later Violet was out, and Kya was glaring at her once again.

"I did what you wanted!" Violet told her, Kya nodded, but kept her glare.

"You stretched out my sweater." Kya told her matter-of-factly. Violet pouted.

"I'll buy you another one, more expensive this time! I promise!" Violet exclaimed, Kya shook her head, and pulled Violet close.

"Come here you dork." Kya said affectionately, Violet smiled and nuzzled into her neck. Damon smiled, and Arthur chuckled a bit, before he stood up.

"I'm going out for a smoke, anyone wanna come with?" Arthur asked, Violet shook her head, and Kya shrugged. Damon smirked, and leaned back.

"I'm good." He said, Arthur nodded, and walked off. Damon noticed Jamora talking with Jesse and Emily about something. Then he looked over and saw Andre in a group of people, he smirked. "Hey, Baby Girl, we gonna get Dremora together?" Damon asked, Violet looked at him confused for a moment before she understood.

"Dremora! Yeah, I was planning to meddle. Can you help babe?" Violet asked, looking up at Kya with big eyes, Kya grumbled and looked away.

"Don't do those eyes at me…" Kya told her, but Violet didn't stop, she let out an irritated sigh. "Fine! What do we do?" Kya asked, Violet smiled, and kissed her.

"I don't know… Um, how about this, Damon you go set up a slow song. Kya, you will go to Andre, since you're technically above him in rank, and can order him around. Drag his ass to the dance floor. I'll go get Jamora, and drag him there. Then, we push them together!" Violet exclaimed, Damon tilted his head.

"We could always just lock them both in a room, and refuse to open the door until they've made out for ten minutes." Damon suggested, Violet hummed, considering it, before shaking her head.

"Nope. My plan is better. Get to work." Violet said dismissively, Damon shrugged and got up to change the song. Violet smiled as she and Kya hopped up, and went to opposite ends of the room.

"Andre, come with me, now." Kya ordered in an authorative voice, Andre grumbled something, and followed her.

"Jamora! Come dance with me, please!" Violet exclaimed, Jamora chuckled a bit, and nodded following Violet. The four met in the center of the room, just as the song changed to a slower one. Violet shoved Jamora, and Andre caught him. Kya smirked, and moved quickly, sweeping Violet into her arms.

"I'm starting to think that was no accident…" Jamora muttered, as Andre helped him stand up straight. Andre nodded.

"Last time I ever listen to a commanding officer." Andre grumbled, before looking at Jamora. Who seemed to be looking anywhere else. "Well, they went through all this for a reason. I told her I didn't want her meddling in business that wasn't hers."

"What do you mean exactly?" Jamora asked, Andre shook his head.

"When it's your business I'll tell you." Andre told him bluntly, Jamora pouted, but then shook his head.

"I think I know… I think that you like me, and are just too scared to admit it." Jamora told him, Andre glared at him.

"I'm not scared of anything." Andre told him, Jamora smirked.

"You didn't deny that you liked me." Jamora pointed out, Andre glared at him.

"What if I do like you?" Andre asked, Jamora shrugged.

"I would say… Man up, and do something about it." Jamora told him, Andre glared at him. Before he grabbed Jamora's shirt roughly and kissed him.

"How's that?" Andre asked with a smirk, Jamora smiled.

"It's a start." Jamora told him, Violet smiled, and leaned into Kya.

"There. You happy?" Kya asked, Violet nodded, with a smile. "One sec, I'll go get us some drinks." Kya told her, Violet nodded. Kya rushed off, as Emily walked up to her, tears in her eyes.

"Violet… Can I talk to you?" Emily asked, sniffling. Violet looked at her concerned, and nodded, grabbing her by the elbow gently, and leading her outside. Once they were out of the house, and the cool night air hit them, Violet smiled a bit. There were a few kids, some making out, one couple having sex in the bushes.

"What's wrong?" Violet asked gently, Emily just shook her head, as some tears fell. Her dark mascara streaking down her pale cheeks.

"Me and Jesse got in a fight…" Emily cried, Violet frowned, before her look hardened into a glare. She reached for her Key-Chain, summoning Oathkeeper.

"I'm gonna kill him. Swore I would if he ever hurt you." Violet said, Emily shook her head, gripping her shirt tightly.

"No! I… don't want you to go! I just, kinda want to cry on you shoulder for a bit…" Emily muttered, Violet smiled, and pulled Emily close for a one armed hug. Her left hand still holding Oathkeeper.

"Okay… I'm right here Emily, I wont go. Cry as much as you need to." Violet told the orange haired girl, who nodded. Violet smiled, before she felt a sharp, biting pain in her ankle. It quickly spread throughout her body, causing her to lose all control.

"Don't worry Violet… She wont be crying after tonight." Violet heard, she tried to look around, but found her vision failing as she dropped Oathkeeper, the Keyblade dematerialized, leaving only the Key-Chain. She could have sworn that sounded like Victoria, before she blacked out.

-Aftermath-The Catacombs(Children of Darkness Base)-Several Hours Later-

Violet shook her head, as she woke up. She blinked several times, trying to regain her vision, and getting a bearing of her surroundings. There was this… Ache throughout her body. She felt weak, weaker than she's ever felt in her life… Like something was missing.

"Finally coming to? Good, now we can start having fun." Victoria mused, Violet lifted her head to look at her. Along with the ache throughout her body, there was also the pain of being suspended by her wrists. The cold metal biting her flesh, her shoulders straining to support her weight as she was suspended a foot off the ground.

"What is…" Violet's voice died in her throat, Victoria smiled at her. Violet's vision was clearing. She could see Victoria, and behind her, Emily. Suspended in a similar fashion to Violet. There was this… Repugnant smell of… Death. She could see fait traces of blood on the walls, and floor.

"What's happening?" Victoria taunted her, before letting out a sadistic cackle. "I'm simply having fun Violet." Violet shook her head, she was nearly naked. Only wearing her sports bra, and panties.

"Why cant I…" Violet wondered aloud as she tried to draw on her magic to escape, but found nothing. Nothing at all.

"Use magic? That's because of the toxin I injected into your bloodstream." Victoria informed her all too happily. Violet just looked at her pathetically, Victoria smiled, she was currently playing with a knife.

"Why?" Violet asked, breathlessly, Victoria smiled at her, before she pressed she blade to Violet's cheek.

"Because… I want to hurt you. No other reason. I just want to see you in pain. That's the whole reason I'm doing this Violet." Victoria told her simply, smiling sadistically before she drug the blade down Violet's face, down her throat, before moving along her collar bone, stopping at her shoulder.

"Please…" Violet pleaded, Victoria just laughed, before she drove the blade into Violet shoulder, eliciting a pained scream from the blonde.

"Music to my ears… That must really hurt with you being suspended like that…" Victoria mused, before she pulled the blade out, smiling at the blood the flowed freely from the wound. Victoria then pressed the tip of the blade against Violet's stomach, smiling as the blonde winced. "Don't worry, I wont go too deep, I don't want to kill you."

"She's gonna… kill you…" Violet breathed out, Victoria smiled, before she cut across Violet's stomach, smiling as the blonde screamed in pain once again, and blood seeped from the wound.

"Who? That pathetic Guardian you have wrapped around your finger? I don't think so." Victoria said, before she raised the blade to Violet's arm, and made another, smaller cut. "Good girl, bleeding for me…" Victoria smiled. Before she turned to the sound of the door opening.

"I've come to collect the blood, the machine's ready Miss Victoria." The Children of Darkness' chief scientist said, his name was Alrik. Dark amber eyes, and black hair, pale skin, wearing a lab coat.

"Fine. Get what you need and go." Victoria said, irritated at being interrupted. Alrik nodded, and moved over to Violet, he pierced her arm with a syringe attached to a machine. He extracted about two pints of blood before he left her, and did the same to Emily, with a different machine. She still wasn't moving.

"All done." He said, before he waved his hand, using a healing spell to replace the blood he had taken. He left the room, Victoria smiled as the door closed. She looked over as Emily stirred, looking around just like Violet had done, in a similar state of undress.

"Where am I…" Emily wondered, Victoria smiled, walking over the orange haired girl.

"I'll tell you where you're not… Safe." Victoria said, before laughing sadistically. She then made a quick cut across Emily's arm, causing a scream from her, and Violet loudly protesting.

"Stop it please! She isn't apart of this!" Violet yelled, Victoria smiled, making another quick cut, this time across the other arm. "Stop hurting her!" Violet screamed as Emily cried out in pain yet again.

"Why, it's hurting you…" Victoria mused before she drove the blade through Emily's left palm. Causing a louder scream from both girls.

"Leave her alone! Just hurt me! But stop hurting her!" Violet yelled, causing Victoria to turn, and saunter over to her. She grabbed Violet's cheeks, and forced her mouth to open. Victoria placed the blade in Violet's mouth, then drug the flat of it across Violet's tongue, leaving a trail of hers and Emily's mixed blood. Violet coughed, spitting the blood back on the ground, as soon as Victoria took the blade out of her mouth.

"Then… Let's give her something worth watching…" Victoria said sadistically before laughing, cutting Violet once again, earning a loud scream of pain in response. Victoria just smiled in sadistic pleasure. All she wanted was to hurt Violet, that's all this was to her, just hurting Violet.

-Aftermath-

So... Yeah, there it was. I've been waiting to get to this part for a while. I know, it's brutal, and it only get's worse from here... I'm a firm believer that no character is safe. Violet may be the main character, but if she ends up dying here, that's it, you know. If she cant handle it, then she's dead. Just because I have plans for the rest of her story, doesnt necesarrily mean she'll live. I've had plans for a character, and killed them off halfway through because, that's just the way it was written, and how ti happened. So yeah, stay tuned! And drop a review please, I would love to know your thoughts on this chapter.
