Please let o to him He has to be alive…

Please let hto clinically insane if they killed V, too

"I feel relief I no longer have to put up with their si bullshit" He flashed his teeth "Cut did us all a favour"

Cut will die

He was evil incarnate He deserved to die in excruciatingly painful ways

I refuse to believe they’re dead

"I said stop!" I wriggled harder, only succeeding in Daniel’s fingers tearing into my flesh Goosebumps covered my skin while ice steadily froze my veins Every second was endless torture I couldn’t live without Jethro

It can’t end like this!

"You won’t win, Weaver" Daniel tugged harder "Accept what’s fucking happened and obey me"

The vacantness I’d endured when Jethro and Kes collapsed hadn’t lasted long The iven me over to Daniel--the exact second he’d delivered my life into his sick son’s control--I’d lost that blanket of nuony I’d never experienced cracked ht bled with hn’s curses and shouts drowned out by grief

It was a never-ending loop

He’s dead

He’s dead

He’s left one

God, I wanted it to stop I wanted this to end--for the curtain on this madhouse production to fall and for the director to shout ‘cut’ For it all to be make-believe

But what if it’s true?

He’s dead

He’s dead

He’s abandonedsadness If it was the truth, what else mattered? Why did I care what ht for?

Vaughn…fight for hiht for them--but ultimately, they didn’t need me Not like Jethro had needed iven me a new hoain; I couldn’t stomach the empty wasteland without him

He’s dead

He’s dead

He’s lost…

I tripped, succuht of the boulder onto stabilise I wanted to curl up into a ball and never ain

He’s…dead…

"For fuck’s sake" Daniel hoisted rip! Walk Do what I say or--"

"No!" My voice ripped down the corridor, frigid with fear So ht as well end it now because I refuse to listen to scu ed me from Jethro’s bedroom, he didn’t twitch or respond "Never! Do you hear me? I’m done"
