There was blood everywhere; Tora’s hands were crimson-soaked.

My hair was suddenly very black and very long. This is not me...I'm living someone else's... Then I let out the loudest scream when I felt the knife went through my heart. That knife transpired all the sadness and cruelty that had touched it. My mind was going crazy as I took it all in. I kept on screaming, trying to free myself from the hallucination that I was trapped in. This wasn't my body, but I couldn't leave it. I feel like was stuck in it. It felt like I was enduring the pain for hours until I finally give up while they kept on draining my energy.

For a heartbeat I wasn’t standing on earth at all I was standing inside the light. It filled every vein, every thought, until I was only brightness and breath. I saw Ares then, at the edge of the glow, his hand half-raised, afraid and faithful all at once. And beneath the roar of the power I felt a single human thought, my own: Let this be mercy, not war. The light broke like water, spilling into the forest. I sank to the ground, the hum fading to silence. The moons had joined completely now, silver and red overlapping like one heartbeat.

“How do we get rid of it?” Becca asked. “Light,” Kay answered. “Of course,” Becca breathed. “If there’s light, there’s no darkness.” “But if there’s darkness, there’s no light,” Luis stated. “There will always be one or the other.
