-"Mina, you know you can just wait for me outside."

-"Shut your mouth. That's not even in question. Let's get going."

You arrived in Michael's carriage so the guards supposed it was Langdon, they took care of the horses. The driver kept his mouth sealed. A guard then spoke up;

-"Mr. Langdon we-"-the man stopped as he looked at Wilhemina's figure, genuinely confused. "Who are you!?"-he yelled but before he could continue, Wilhemina roughly grabbed his neck, lifting an adult man in her one hand from the ground. Her grip was only getting tighter and tighter, Ms. Venable's sharp fingernails were driving into the guard's neck, his face turning almost blue as blood poured from his eyes and nose. You saw a lot of rage in Ms. Venable's expression. This reminded you of how she attempted to choke you too once.  

She dropped the now dead man on the floor and looked at him saying quietly;

-"Oh, how I hate men."

-"Wilhemina I-"

Ms. Venable just smirked and got going. All you needed to do was swing your hand to get rid of all the other guards. Getting in was easier than expected, you took a pass from one of the dead men and got in. You and Wilhemina took off your protection suits as you were in the safety of the sanctuary now. Weird- you thought. There was nobody around and the place floated in silence.

Entering the main room of the second floor made you realize there was still nobody until you suddenly got surrounded by hundreds of armed men, after looking at Mina, you noticed she was obviously shocked, even frightened. There was no time to react and everything happened in a blink of an eye.

Nobody hesitated to shoot both of you the same second. That was when Wilhemina made the stupidest decision possible, she jumped in front of you.

She dropped on the floor trying to catch breath as blood poured from her chest, stomach and whole torso. You didn't care about armed people around you anymore, you kneeled before Wilhemina and took her in your arms whilst crying. You caressed her cheek and noticed her lips parting, while struggling to tell you something;

"Go save yourself... With a brave heart anything is possible. I love you."- after she managed to tell you she loved you one last time, her lips formed a small smile before she took her last breath in your arms. Her beautiful brown eyes had no more life inside them and they lost the blossom.

A few of your tears dropped on the wooden floor before you looked up and screamed. From sorrow... Pain. The scream unfortunately became so loud, you weren't able to hear it anymore. One by one of the armed men started disappearing. No blood, no pain. They were sent to time, in between time. A time-loop you could say.

You looked back at Mina, who was obviously, dead. You didn't know the spell to make her come back. That part of your memory hasn't come back yet. You just hugged her and wanted to have one last moment alone with her. You soon heard a voice, it was the driver;

"Ladies! Oh god... Ms. Venable... I am so sorry, (y/n). I know it's hard but, you should leave her behind. We have to get going right away, I saw the monsters of the outside going for the outposts. You have to get the food fast or you eventually won't make it."

-"Wait for me, well get there in a second. Just let me have a moment with her."

The driver just nodded in response. You turned back to Mina and your eyes filled with tears as you spoke to her;

"Mina, I know you are in my stars. I never even doubted it. And I'll be forever patient to be yours, in another life."-you pressed your lips against hers now, cold, lifeless ones, but there was some kind of electricity you felt. Like a spark. A blossom.

You thought your mind was just messing with you even though you never felt anything quite like this before. You turned and started running in tears, knowing you had to leave your lover behind, forever. You got in your old yellow protection suit and jumped into the carriage.

You were about to rob all food from the outposts, and leave many innocent people die of hunger. At this point it was just yourself you cared about. During the ride you had so many thoughts in your head.

This is going to be a long journey...
