Breaking Boundaries - Blood Ties- (2)

Back From The Dead

Jordan was stunned. How could Athena want to do such a thing? She couldn't risk it. She lost too many people, and Kiara will not be added to the list. She continued to pace back and forth, flashes of her old friends that she failed popping into her head.

"Jordan, this needs to be done. It's the only way to get Kiara back." She knew she was asking a lot, she didn't want to kill her sister. But it was necessary to get her back, she knew Jordan could bring her back. She placed her hand on the woman's shoulder, stopping her from pacing. "Please."

"We do it my way."

"Of course, what will you need?"

"Really, really cold water." 

"What happened to you in there?" Lily asked, looking at the redhead. She tried getting anything out of her. 

"I'm not telling you a damn thing." She spat. "Just give it up Lily, you won't kill me, and you won't let me go either. What is the point of all of this?"

"Getting you back."

"This is the real me!" She yelled, charging to the bars and grabbing them to support her weight. "Why can't you guys see that?" Athena came down the stairs holding a canteen of water. "What do you want now?" 

"Figured you'd be thirsty," Athena stated bluntly. 

"Why do you care?"

"You're still my sister Kiara, it doesn't matter what you have done." She tossed the water to Lily before retreating up the stairs. 

She pulled the top off and walked over to Kiara, offering her the cold liquid. "Please?" 

Kiara rolled her eyes and took a long sip, handing it back to her. "Taste like piss."

"Well it is Athena, wouldn't put it past her."

Kiara laughed a bit before shaking her head. It felt, foggy. "What the" The room started to spin, and Lily's face was blurred before she fell to the ground unconscious.

"Athena! Get down here!" Lily shouted. She ran downstairs and gave a relieved sigh. "Thank the gods that worked, help me get her upstairs."

Jordan was pacing yet again only in the washroom this time. She looked back at the tub that was filled with freezing water. The top of the water is nearly all ice. This has to work. She thought before her three friends barged through the door. 

"Are we really about to drown her? How do we bring someone back from that?" Lily asked, hating this plan in its entirety. 

"It's freezing so it'll give us more time to bring her back." I hope.

"Let's get on with this before she wakes up yeah? I don't want to deal with an angry mage." Athena said as they lifted her body into the water. Kiara's eyes twitched, but other than that, there was no response. Her entire body was submerged as the three women used all their strength to keep her down in case she woke up. After about thirty seconds, her eyes shot open as she tried squirming her way out. Kicking, punching, clawing and screaming to deaf ears. "Keep her down!"

Kiara woke from the trance, terrified. She couldn't breathe. She knew what they were doing. She was only out of the trance as a trick to show them that it's her and they would let her go. She stopped struggling and moved her hand down to hold Lily's. Lily saw Kiara nod under the water as she was struggling. Then nothing. 

"Get her out!" Jordan shouted. They picked her up and placed her on the floor, a puddle starting to form under her. "Ok, Lily when I say, you lift her chin up and breathe into her mouth got it?" She nodded as she went closer to the girls face, waiting for her orders. Jordan started pushing on her chest, over and over. "Now!" Lily's lips met cold blue ones as she breathed out. Jordan started again and they repeated. Over and over. Nothing was changing, they refused to give up. Lily was sobbing at this point, it had been fifteen minutes, yet no change.
