A bit short, I know but it is a compromise. Also THANK YOU so much for the reviews like omg, thanks!
Epilogue
Ding. Dong. Ding. Dong.
The town clock struck midnight and the two lovers that had agreed to meet in secret sneaked out of their houses. Their shadows moved along the walls trying to hide from the moon that would illuminate their forbidden affair. Little did the lovers know that a little girl with a smile was watching as they made out in secret.
The girl watched from afar in the village's tower with a body of a human girl that couldn't have been more than twenty years of age in her arms.
"Once upon a time that could've been you. Expect you would be better." Her eyes flickered back to the couple who hadn't noticed the two men that had followed them. Shouts pierced the air as arms were swung, and the poor lovers were caught like flies in a web of a spider.
"You wouldn't get caught."
Ding. Dong. Ding. Dong.
It was night once more and as it had happened for at least a week, the couple snuck out. Save Road no longer cared, she still hadn't found the innocence and pesky exorcists had arrived.
Maybe she'd play with them and maybe Cori would be happy. Maybe she'd come back with more math homework and boring historical lectures. Maybe Road could finally get over a filthy human's death…
Maybe her life could finally go back to what it had been with her family, with Neah, with Corian.
Ding. Dong. Ding. Dong.
A pink tongue came down and slowly licked a lollipop. She had made up her mind, the exorcists were to be played with and broken, especially the girl who would be the perfect doll. Her long hair could be styled appropriately and a dress with ruffles would go beautifully with her shape.
But she would not replace Cori, neither would this pale corpse in her hand. And yet, she could not get rid of it, could not throw it behind along with Neah. It would stay with her, it would never betray her, after all, Cori had never done so, why would her carcass?
She jumped down the clock tower of the rewinding town, never once laying eyes on the silent tear shed in the night, fading just as fast as it had appeared.
Ding. Dong. Ding. Dong.
The annoying exorcists had gotten in her way and found the innocence user. It was time for the curtain to be raised and the acts to drop. The exorcists would become nothing but burnt ashes in her footsteps.
A wicked smile shone in the night.
Another glistening tear was shed.
Ding. Dong. Ding. Dong.
The exorcists had won. She had lost. What was wrong with her, she had never lost a fight!
A strangled scream escaped her throat and she punched the wall. The Noah were the superior species, not the puny humans. She was supposed to crush them beneath her foot like the ants they were. She screamed once more as her nails dug into her grey skin and were dragged across her face, marring it and erasing it of its child-like innocence.
She had been betrayed; she had to have been betrayed. But…
Cori couldn't have, she wouldn't have… or would she?
Road no longer knew, had she ever truly known? Even when she had been alive, had Road known?
"Ahhh!" The third scream echoed throughout the night and squeezed itself through each alley and slipped through the closed shut windows, but never once disturbed the humans sleeping.
She had never made an impact on their lives. Not even Corian's.
And never would.
After all, the ninth apostle was mad and broken and nothing.
(A tear was never shed again.)
Please, review and tell me if this was to your expectations.
