Alice gasped, as she looked around the snow-covered surroundings. Mistpeak Valley. Her eyes widened as she remembered Alfie's words.
"Don't do anything reckless…and don't go to Mistpeak."
Jade smirked at her, standing just opposite.
"Why are you doing this?" Alice questioned, shaking from the cold night air.
"Why be good, when you can be feared. So much power," Jade answered, her eyes filled with malice. "It was easy, you know? Fooling everyone into thinking I was good. Innocent even. I knew about Logan's trip to Aurora. The thing you all failed to realise, was that he unknowingly brought back some of the darkness with him."
"It's been in you this entire time," Alice realised.
Jade chuckled, "It was perfect. Who would suspect a little girl? Then, when we arrived in Aurora, I made a deal with the crawler. They let me live during their attack, but with a price."
"And what was that price?"
"Darkness will always overpower light." Jade suddenly disappeared.
A sharp pain went through Alice. She looked down to find a blade had been driven through her stomach.
"Sweet dreams, Alice," Jade whispered into Alice's ear from behind her. She pulled out her dagger, smirking at the cry of pain that emitted from Alice's throat as she fell to the ground.
Jade's smirk soon turned into shock, feeling something pressed against the back of her head.
Without blinking, Reaver pulled the trigger of his Dragonstomper. His face remained blank as Jade's body fell to the ground also.
He quickly ran to Alice's side, dropping to his knees. He turned her body and cradled her, placing one hand on her wound to try and slow the bleeding. Her blood had turned the snow red where she had laid.
Alice's eyes opened slightly.
"Reaver," Alice spoke in a weak voice.
"Shh, save you energy," he replied softly. He went to lift Alice up to carry her.
"No," she said, stopping him. "It's no use…"
"Don't you dare," Reaver hissed.
"Reaver," she spoke softly, placing her hand on his cheek softly. "Let me go."
"No! Please, stay with me."
Alice smiled softly, her eyes beginning to close. "I love you. Always."
Reaver's grip on her tightened as Alice's last breath left her. Her eyes closed. He frowned, anger and rage boiling. He closed his eyes, bringing her lifeless body closer to his and rested his forehead against hers.
A tear rolled down his cheek.
A/N: Who saw that coming? Cause I didn't, it was kinda spur of the moment. Sorry about Reaver's out-of-character-ness, but yeah, it will be explained in the next/final chapter. By the way, I failed to mention that the chapter before this was the Christmas Special, I was in a hurry that day and forgot to include an authors note :)
Also, I'm planning on doing either a Saints Row, Gears of War or Being Human fanfiction, just for something to do over the holidays. I'm gonna put any upcoming stories on my profile...thingy :)
Review!
