South finds out about CT's dead. Trigger warning for self harm and suicide.
The minute she saw the escape pod shoot into the sky, South knew something had gone wrong. She and North exchanged a glance before they rushed to the extraction point.
They soon arrived back on the ship. After changing out of their armor, all the agents, except for Tex, met up. South was the first to speak.
"Ok, what the fuck happened back there?!"
Everyone stayed silent. Some looked at South with sad expressions. Others just stared at the ground. South looked everyone over.
"Seriously, what the fuck happened?!"
Carolina finally spoke.
"CT took an axe to the abdomen. There's no way she survived."
The blood drained from South's face. Her fists were clenched at her sides.
"What?!"
"She's dead, South. Texas killed her…"
Carolina trailed off, looking at the floor again. South's mind was racing and she could feel her breathing becoming faster.
"No. No, she's not dead. She can't be dead."
"South," North placed his hand on her shoulder.
"No!" South threw a punch at her twins face, catching him square in the nose. He reeled back, clutching his face. Everyone held their breath, looking at South. She stood facing North, tears starting to fall from her eyes.
"She can't be dead…" She whispered. She took one last glance at everyone before turning and running back towards her room. She vaguely heard North call after her, but she didn't stop until she reached her room.
South ran into the bathroom and locked the door. She was hyperventilating; her hands still balled into fists. She faced the bathroom mirror, seeing the tears flowing from her eyes. One swift punch later and the mirror was reduced to shards. South picked up one of the pieces.
"If the only girl I've ever loved is dead," She spoke aloud. "then I want to be dead too."
She quickly used the shard to slash both of her wrists, cutting as deep as she could. The shard clattered to the ground and she leaned against the wall, sliding down until she hit the floor. Her tears were coming faster now.
"See you soon, CT."
South closed her eyes, waiting for death to overcome her.
Five minutes later, the door was broken down by North. As soon as he saw his sister, his stomach dropped. He ran to her.
"I need a medic in here!"
But it was too late. She was already gone.
