Disclaimer: I don't own Sisters Grimm and Wicked. Sorry about the last chapter…it needed to be done. It gets better. And you get an explanation to why Daphne and Sabrina are Everafters.
Broken
I staggered away from Puck who stood there, his eyes darkening from grey to a deep, deep, deep black. Daphne stood there, her face alarmed as I stumbled into my little sister's arms.
"I…broke up with him" I gasped, partly from being winded and partly from being shocked. Daphne stared at me in shock and looked up at Puck for confirmation. His black eyes were confirmation enough it seems.
"What? Why?" Daphne demanded. Ms. Gravel walked over and tapped my shoulder. She saw my stricken and face and backed off for a second.
"There's going to be a delay. Hold off for a second. I need to speak with Sabrina" Daphne said, suddenly taking charge. I noted how well she grasped the situation. It would've been better if she was the elder sister.
"Uh…yes, Daphne" Ms. Gravel said. Daphne dragged me over to a dark corner where I basically collapsed to the floor. I felt drained and when that happened my wings happened to pop out. Daphne lifted her wand and her dark tattoos showed through the makeup.
"Give me some darkness!" Daphne said. The area we were in was shrouded with darkness and nobody could see us. It was only Daphne and I now. My wings pushed through my clothes, magically. I stared at her as she looked down at me in pity.
"You asked me why I broke up with him. That wasn't what I said. I said I wanted to take a break. But everyone knows what that means…I was singing that wretched song and I saw him with Fern and everything just seemed real…too real. Puck…he's not like me. Nobody's like me. I'm evil. I took something that was his!" I said. Daphne looked at me, her eyebrows furrowed.
"Sabrina…you're not the Sabrina I know. You're the Sabrina that is wallowing in self-pity, which I cannot allow. I'm just like you Sabrina. If you remember I was there as well…it happened to me as well. I have someone else's blood running through me as well" Daphne reminded. I closed my eyes and the memories flashed across my closed eyes like a film…
We were running. As fast as we could. Daphne was just behind me and Puck was flying over us. The Scarlet Hand had ended but there were still stragglers that tried to emphasize that everyone wasn't gone. Hobgoblins…
"Run faster!" I urged, Daphne. She glared at me and stumbled over the long coat she had taken to wearing.
"I have hundreds of magical artifacts in here including something so very valuable…Baba Yaga's blood. I might break the jar and then we'd…" she cut off and stared in horror. She didn't stop running but I went even faster, still looking at her. It was a very stupid thing to do.
The ground was cut off from under me and I could see Puck's shocked face. His eyes turned yellow for the first time. It was the color of loss. I plummeted towards the river underneath and Puck was too frozen to save Daphne or me. I was holding her hand so she tumbled down with me. The next thing I remembered was Daphne and I being pulled from the water. Puck's face was the only thing I saw.
"Oh God! I'm so sorry, 'Brina. I'm so, so, sorry. I'm going to make it better…for the both of you" Puck said, worried. I couldn't say anything. I could only look down. My entire left side…paralyzed and covered in blood. Blood that wasn't my own. I turned to Daphne. She was bloody…everywhere. I couldn't scream though I wanted to.
"God! I know what to do, 'Brina. I'll take care of her first, okay? I remember what Baba Yaga said" Puck said, frantically. He searched in Daphne's bloody cloak for something and produced a small jar of silvery liquid. He opened Daphne's blue lips and poured it in. He forced her to swallow it and I started drifting into a sleep. Daphne jolted awake, Black tattoos running from her forehead and down her bare arms. She stared at me and wiped the blood from her face.
"Sabrina! Puck! Give me your arm!" Daphne said. My eyes were drifting closed and I smiled. She didn't need to save me…she would be much better without me. She was much more well read. If she wanted to she could probably save me. She probably knew how.
"Yes!" Puck said. Daphne took her wand and slid it down his forearm. A bloody gash appeared and blood spilled onto me. It was all over my face and I closed my eyes. It dripped into my mouth and I felt a pain in my back. I jolted up as I felt a ball of burning magic in my stomach. I trembled with the power. It made me happy. My back arched and two wings ripped out of it…two big black and silver wings.
She looked at me, her face grim and serious. I knew this was her no nonsense face that she took when speaking to suspects.
"I think you should know what I did to save you…it's written that each person on Earth, immortal or mortal, has a soulmate. And when these two meet each other everything about them belongs to the other. That's how mortals say it…but with immortals they share their powers through blood. Puck gave you life and gave you his magic. You are not a creature of magic like him you are a creature of his magic…you can't get rid of me even my breaking up with him. The say I saved your life I established a blood bond. You're stuck with him…" Daphne said. I stared at her in shock. Soulmate? What was this, a soap opera?
"That…that's crazy! I believe in magic but soulmates? Really, Daphne?" I asked. Daphne stared at me in shock and a little disgust.
"You believe in things that people think are stories but you can't believe in something that's so real that it's like you can touch it? You're a sad case, Sabrina Veronica Grimm" sighed Daphne. I looked at her in shock.
"Don't play the middle name card, Daphne…Henrietta Grimm!" I teased. She smiled and stood up and grabbed my hand. She helped me up and I looked down, something in me still broken.
"You are good enough but…I think you should wait. You should wait to tell him…wait until the night of the play…wait…until next week" she said, quietly. I looked at her in confusion.
"Why?" I asked. She smirked and whispered one word.
"Catfight…"
A/N: Bet you don't know what the last word means. You'll find out in a few chapters. Everyone who has seen Wicked will know what that means. Don't go looking it up because you won't find it…
