Epilogue Running Up That Hill
Morana/Melinda stood in front of Toby, lights from the fires forgotten, minions, demons, and human slaves, all killed and in piles of ash, forgotten.
"You have a choice, let her go, or you both die."
"Now what kind of a choice is that Toby, you wouldn't really kill Melinda, now would you?"
"She would rather be dead then stuck as your slave, as your host."
"Are you so sure about that?"
"She told me, after you gave her all that power, after we... after..." his voice was breaking, "She blocked you, she told me to save her, and if I had to kill her, then so be it!"
"Pity, I had such high hopes for us. Too bad you can never kill me. That potion will never work."
"Can't you feel it in you already? Can't you feel the poison slowly killing you, burning you? Ever since you started having me help feed you, since you started using my body. I have been poisoning the humans you kill, the witches and mortals have all been poisoned by me, by the potions that I have had hidden with me. And yesterday I ran out besides this vile. You are at your weakest… and I know that you aren't even immortal anymore, not in your own body. In a mortals body."
"Even if I am not immortal anymore, you can't kill me. This 'poison' wont hurt me once I kill you. nothing those two golden brothers of hers can make can kill me."
"Good thing her cousin made it."
"What?"
It doesn't hurt me.
You wanna feel how it feels?
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
You wanna hear about the deal I'm making?
You
You and me
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...
Flashback:
"Toby, promise me, this is going to be one of my last moments of clarity. If she gets me, gets in me, kill her, kill me. There wont be anything left, I am not sure how much of me is going to be left, if any. I don't want the world to be stuck with my body killing everyone, my family. Kill me Toby, you promise?"
"Mel..."
"Devon got you this close, you can't back out now. If you love me, kill me."
"You know that I do… but, isn't there anyway? Besides killing you?"
"No, I looked, but she has targeted me, and there is no way to fight her. And I can't even find the strength to try. My body craves the power that she offers. You felt it. Last night, us having sex, you had to feel it too. And that was it, what we can't remember, we had sex. Toby, Devon is going to come see you later. Whatever you do, listen and trust him. He knows what he is talking about."
End flashback.
You don't wanna hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder.
There's a thunder in our hearts, baby.
So much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You,
You and me, oh…
You and me won't be unhappy.
"You stupid mortal humans, thinking that you can kill me. You can't, I am a GODDESS, and I am POWERFULL!"
"You are nothing more then a once powerful being that is trapped in bodies that can't hold what you are. You are nothing anymore. Nothing but dusts that wont go into the wind."
"You are nothing," a voice rang out from the winds. "I am more then you."
"Melinda?"
My body fell to its knees and when my head snapped up Toby knew that it was me this time. "Toby… now… please, end this."
"Melinda," Toby said taking a step towards me but jerking backwards when he realized what he was doing. "I love you."
"I love you too, but they are coming, and they can't see me like this," I said falling to my hands. "End it and give them my love."
And as Toby threw the potion at me, and it hit my skin, Devon and my family that had caught up to him came rushing into the room as my body started on fire and I screamed.
Then came the white light.
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
If I only could, oh...
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
And If I only could, And If I only could, And If I only could make a deal with god
And If I only could,
And If I only could,
And If I only could,
And If I only could make a deal with God
And If I only could…
"So that was how I died but how did you get out too?" I asked the young girl next to me.
"I don't know. All I know is that my hold on you slipped and then I was in a room filled with people in robes and the bloody body next to me. Then you came and I got a second chance."
"I don't remember the bloody body, but I think one on the Elders said it was what you became when you were forced to kill by the people of your village in the beginning." I said squinting and staring across the park.
There I was, on the edge of the park near my house, and I stood watching my family. A family I was never allowed to see again, a family that I was never to let know that I was okay. I think mom knew that I was at peace now, and my aunt, brothers and few cousins, I think that they new deep down that I was somewhere, somewhere safe and warm.
I looked down at the little four year old holding my hand and smiled at her, and she returned it before I orbed away back into the clouds.
