Have you noticed my drabbles are getting shorter? I think they are, but they still have that sense of completeness too…
CC please?
4. Dark
~O~
She was born into Darkness.
She reveled in it.
When her mother, who was her idol, the whole reason she was Dark in the first place went insane. She decided she didn't want to be Dark anymore (and apparently, neither did her brother).
So they planhide and planlie and plansteal and hideplan and planact and steal informationpretend and planworry and lieplan and planlie.
And they escaped; they broke away from the Dark soul that was their mother, even though they were both terrified, they had gotten away. (She almost wishes that the two of them could've celebrated their new Light souls, but then they wouldn't have been there for Ian to disown Mother).
However, they have an unsaid pact to not go too far Light, it could be as bad for them as the Dark was for Mother.
But her brother changes, it isn't obvious at first, but when he's dealing with the Lucians it becomes obvious. His soul is no longer Dark enough to deal with them anymore. Ian's soul is now the lightest shade of gray possible, (but technically, his soul is still gray, so he's not too far Light), and when dealing with Dark souls, that's not good. So she resolves to be Darker than her brother. Just because he loves (yes, loves, she's not blind you know) the Cahill girl, he is not longer cold enough to deal with the most ruthless group on the planet.
And the concept of Gray enters Natalie's head one night.
But is it possible?
A gray soul was unheard of.
Before Natalie.
Because Natalie Kabra can't not be able to do something.
And Natalie's soul becomes a neutral gray. It is not too Dark, like her mother's, or too Light like her brother's.
Natalie was born into Darkness, swayed into the Light and destined to be Gray.
