A/N- OMG three chapters already? Fantastic! Anyway I own Nothing! WARNING! Some self-harm in this chapter.

Shaunee's POV:

Thantos finally arrived a few minutes later, with two Sons of Erebus Warriors at her side. They carried a stretcher. We all moved so that they could get to Erin's body. Stevie Rae, Zoey, and Aphrodite were hugging each other and crying and Damien was watching them lift her, eyes brimmed with tears. Erin is dead. Erin is Dead. Erin is DEAD! I couldn't take it anymore! I bolted out of the tent and ran. Ran as far from the tent a possible. I ran until I reached my secret spot. The girls washroom next to the teachers lounge. Yeah. yeah. I know it's not exactly secret. But hardly anyone comes in here because the toilets are all busted and the professors all have to use the washrooms in the dorms. So nobody would be looking for me anytime soon. I sobbed as I entered the last stall and sat on the toilet. Tears flowed freely down my face and I was sure I was snotting everywhere. "Nyx, why was it Erin? She hadn't gotten a chance to feel. To love." I cried and I cried until my tears ran dry. It felt like was missing half my heart. I stayed in there for who knows how long. I pulled out my lighter from my back pocket. I need to feel something, ANYTHING, something besides this overwhelming emptiness. I clicked the lighter. Once. Twice. On the third try, a flame burned bright orange at the top. I sniffed, pulling up the sleeve of my shirt, I held the flame over my forearm. Ready to lose myself in pain.

No Daughter...

A voice whispered in my ear. I gasped dropping the lighter on the ground. "Nyx! Why? Why did you stop me?"

Sweet child, you must not harm yourself. Erin is at peace. And so should you be.

I started crying again. Hearing that Erin was finally at peace warmed my heart. "Oh Goddess! Will I ever fill this hole in my heart?"

In due time Daughter. I have plans for you.

And then the presence was gone. I crawled on the floor and wept.

Kalona POV:

"What an uncomfortable chair." I grumbled crossing my arms. "I don't see why I have to sit here cooped up in this dingy old office while everyone else gets to roam about." But Thantos said that I needed to remain in this room. And as Deaths Warrior, it is my will to do as she commands. "Ugh! How irritating!" I bellowed, standing up. "Let me at least go somewhere more open." Being in tight spaces makes me nervous. I believe the humans call it, Claustrophobia. I quietly opened the large wooden door that led to the spacy hall. I was mindful of every creak the old door made. I peered my head out and glanced around, making sure no one was around. Sighing with relief I made my way down the lit hallway. Passing the girls restroom the sound of a girls soft whimpers invaded my ear drums. I tensed. Who in the world is that?

I slowly crept into the washroom and the sounds of her sobs growing louder as I approached the last stall. I pressed my finger tips to the stall door and it flung open. I gasped when I saw who was inside. I took a step back. To shocked to speak. And apparently so was she for her eyes had gone wide and her mouth hung open. "Shaunee?" I croaked, finding my voice. "What are you doing?" The fledgling was curled up in a ball, her coffee colored cheeks were stained with tears. She stood and only then did I notice, she was covered on blood. "Shaunee? What happened? Are you hurt? You're covered in blood! Come! I'm taking you to the infirmary!" I grabbed her hand gently and I pulled her out of the stall. She looked up at me, she looked confused. "Blood?" She whispered. She looked down and her eyes widened. "No, no. It's not my blood." It was all over her shirt and with closer inspection, I realized that the blood had dried. "Who's blood is it?" I asked, cautious. "E-Erin is dead." Her voice broke and she placed her hand over her mouth. "She rejected the change." I see. I had heard that she and Shaunee were close friends. Then I did something that surprised even myself. I pulled Shaunee into my chest and wrapped my arms around her. She tenses, pushing against my arms, desperately trying to break free. "Erin is with Nyx now." I held on to her tighter. "You'll see her again. I know it." She finally relaxed into me, melting into my arms. I felt her tears wet my chest and I stroked her soft brown hair. Reaching behind my back her fingers brushed over my wings. And we just stood there like that. She cried and I held her. I felt as if she'd break in my arms. When her tears finally slowed she pushed away from me. I felt an emptiness from were her warm body had disappeared. She fidgeted nervously and she rubbed her hands over her arms. "Um. Thanks. I really needed that. You have no idea." And she bolted out of the bathroom. I listened to her foot steps until I couldn't here them anymore. I looked at my hands, I could still feel the lingering warmth of her skin and the burning touch of her hands on my wings.
