Chapter 25 | Ghost World
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Mimi tended to wonder what death was like. Sure she had died probably millions of times but that couldn't be considered real death if she was constantly coming back. The dying that Mira had endured was more of a painful and temporary slumber that she would eventually wake up from and realise once again she would never die.
She wondered what it felt like for the slumber to become permanent. As sad as it was, throughout all the years she had lived she often wished she was not cursed to live forever. Miralette Emberson had spent a lot of time wishing to die.
because despite all she had, what did she truly have to live for? In her eyes she didn't bring people happiness. just hate, torment and fear. after surviving so long and so much, her life became pointless. Sure, she'd hate to leave her brother and friends but maybe they'd be better off without her.
She hoped for death to be beautiful. Despite how morbid such a thing was made out to be, Mimi looked at the beauty of it. To lie in the soft depths of the earth, with nature surrounding her, sunlight shining upon her, just listening to the silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, forgive life and finally be at peace. No fear, no hate, no anger and no pain. just calm, peace and quiet.
Unfortunately for her that was only a dream. A wish that would never come true and she realised that every time she woke from death once more.

Groans and sharp breaths could be heard from the hybrid woman as she heard someone repeatedly screaming her name. "Mira!" she felt utter relief when the pain she felt in her stomach disappeared. "Come on, Mims, wake up."
slowly opening her eyes, her hand instinctively went to her neck, remembering it had been snapped as she came out of her hazy state. "Son of a bitch." she murmured, while she sat up from the ground she had been left dead in her living room.
Looking around she found both Elliana and Rebekah staring at her in concern. "You okay?" Ellie asked worriedly as she helped the hybrid girl stand. She only received a nod of confirmation from her.
Rebekah pushed some of her dark hair out of her face as she questioned. "What the bloody hell happened here, Lettie? Who did this?"
Mira breathed heavily as she eyed the stake in Elliana's hands, looking down at her stomach she saw a hole in her shirt as well as dried blood staining it. Coming to the conclusion it had been embedded inside of her after her neck was snapped.
