"What!?"
I brought him.
I brought him.
The words repeated in his head.
Shira was...?
She was with Maleficent?
The wizard... wasn't real?
This was all... a trap?
Someone tied his hands behind his back, and Maleficent appeared.
"Please, Master... don't hurt him," Shira begged.
Master?
"Is anyone going to explain what the heck is going on here!?" Ryan snapped.
"I'm..." Shira stared at her feet. In a flash, she transformed into a familiar dragon Heartless.
"That... You're... The Heartless we fought before... that was you?"
She changed back and slowly walked over, gently taking off the patch under Ryan's eye.
"It scarred... I'm so sorry I keep hurting you like this." Maleficent yanked her back. The boy struggled as he was dragged towards a nearby cell, and pinned against a wall.
Whatever was bolted to the wall closed around his wrists, and locked in. He glowered at Shira, but felt something other than anger in his heart
It was a panging.
A longing.
All he wanted was to wake up from this nightmare to find that Shira truly loved him, that it hadn't been a trap.
He felt betrayed.
He felt hurt.
Maleficent dragged the girl away by the wrist and locked her in her cell. The dark, cold emptiness of the room ate at Shira's soul.
As she curled up into a ball on the floor she began to cry. Hours slipped by, her chest ached and her eyes burned, the tears stinging like fire. Her breathing became painful. Her sobs echoed through the chamber.
She was exhausted now. An attempt to stand up caused her knees to collapse and hit cold steel.
She pounded her fist on the ground, furious with herself for letting Maleficent use her like this.
"Why did I have to go through with this...? Why? What's... wrong with me?! Why, Maleficent... WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CREATE ME!?"
