"Live."



But how can I live when I am dying now? As if by magic the lady answered my question which I had not said out loud.


"I will live within you, giving you the power."


She paused and gazed at me capturing my eyes with her silvery ones. Drawing me in, making me feel as though I was slowly sinking in to them. From far away I could vaguely hear her speak her last words to me.


"Together we will be unstoppable."


And thus I left her and jolted awake to the prison. Clutching my sides I struggled to sit up, the girl was by my side almost immediately dragging me upwards and into her arms. Hugging me tightly.


"You had a fit, you shook uncontrollably and muttered something." She paused to let out a sob. "You almost died."


She leaned me back against the wall and shoved the plate towards me, beckoning for me to eat from it.


I took a few bites, tiny but enough to keep me going for a little bit longer. The girl had shrunk backwards into the cell.


"You'd been moved then?" She glanced upwards at my question.


"Yes, they needed room in the other cell, I suppose."


I nodded and turned back to my food, wondering if I could manage another bite or not.


"I'd never seen someone die before." I looked up at her. "I mean, I just couldn't handle it. And I know we were never really friends but, I'd like to think you were."


"Let me guess, it gives you comfort?"


She nodded and chuckled slightly once to herself


"Exactly."


"Hey umm what's your name? I never asked."


"Lana."


I smiled, genuinely smiled at her.


"That's a pretty name."


She returned the gesture and smiled back at me.


"Did you ever find your wolf?"


Her smile faded and formed a frown instead.


"Yeah, but I lost her, to a silver bullet."


I suddenly felt deeply uneasy like I was intruding on a personal moment that i should not see, or even know about.
