>>1251773Looking down you saw her broken body, her clothes tattered and multiple stab wounds across her chest. Her once fair skin was battered and broken. That bright orange hair soaked crimson by her own blood. Her bloodied sword laid idly beside her body while the area around her pooled a similar red.
But it wasn’t those things that terrified you.
It was THOSE EYES.
Those deadened violet eyes that lifelessly stared out towards you.
You already knew what this was all about. You knew this all a part of her little game. Kiara was a phoenix, an undying immortal who could never truly perish. Despite this, however, she could still be wounded and temporarily die. But the regeneration would then kick in, and she would be back to normal in as little as a few minutes.
You turned you back to her body, hoping to scrap the memory from your mind.
You knew the second that you got involved in her life that she wasn’t normal, even by human standards. At first it was those forgettable little things that were normal to any person. Complaining about her low subscriber count, lamenting about her shadowbans from YouTube or her increasingly distant relationship with the reaper Mori Calliope.
But then things took a turn for the worse.
Kiara would come back to the house each day more agitated and hysterical than the last. When you tried to talk to her about her issues, however, she would either yell at you to leave her alone or break down crying on the spot. It was then the doubts in your mind began to form.
It wasn’t safe here anymore. You needed to leave.
You didn’t know what caused her to finally snap. But when she did…
All hell broke loose.
