The darkness is just what you think it is: dark. My brothers own this realm, here I deliver the souls to them. I don't know what they are doing to them, but I never put to much thought to it, since I knew I would never find out.
Actually, I don't even know if they are my brothers. I just started calling them that way because I didn't know how else to call them, and because I liked the thought of having brothers.
But this is the first time I am scared of them.
And this is the first time I am afraid of losing someone I love.
'What's going on?', I ask and my hands shake. I pull out of my brother's grib and hug myself. The darkness never felt this cold before.
'You cannot have contact to the human realm', my scariest brother says and I freeze.
No.
'What... Why.', I whisper and my nicest brother puts his hand on my shoulder.
'Because you are not human.', he says and tears fill my eyes.
Jamie.
'Please', I beg, and I fall on my knees.
'Don't take her away from me.'
But they don't answer, just like they haven't answered before.
