Unknown Requiem

028

Moments after the attack and betrayal of Persephone,someone who Empress Lucia believed was once a trusted friend. Now she was a traitor through and through,someone who hurt Lucia through her most prized possession. Her son. Gripping onto Castiel's hand with her own trembling one Lucia pressed her lips against it. Praying that he would live on,even if she had to give up her own immortality for him. She would. Castiel was her world. Her shining star in the bleak night sky,and Lucia refused to allow his light to fade away. Watching as the blood continued to pour from his wound Lucia shed tears for her son,before hearing a sudden gasp behind her. Lucia turned towards the source of the noise,tears streaming down her cheeks as her bleary eyed vision focused on the stunned form of C2. Who covered her mouth with her hands,holding back her own oncoming sobs. "No."She breathed before kneeling beside Lucia,touching the pale faced Castiel who remained unresponsive.

"W-what should I do? T-the bleeding won't stop."Lucia asked through trembling lips as she struggled to maintain her composure. It was true she was a queen. A Queen of a great nation but when it came to people she loved,she crumbled under the weight of the pressure. And she most certainly could not handle this on her own. Lucia pleaded with the stunned C2 to help her,to tell her what she needed to do. Because at the moment with the way Lucia's thoughts were in such a state she was unable to think rationally.

"Please C2!" Lucia called out once more to the silent C2. Who's eyes remained glued to the horrible form of Castiel. She knew who had done this,and it was all her fault. If C2 would have kept running. If she would have kept her heart hidden for a few more years no maybe a few more centuries than maybe. Just maybe all of this chaos could be avoided. Tears began to well up in C2's eyes blurring her vision as she lowered her head before Castiel and Lucia. Mumbling apologetic words to them both.

"This is all my fault."C2 stuttered as Lucia peered towards her longtime friend opening her mouth as if to ask what she meant. But her thoughts were interrupted by the sudden appearance of a woman. The woman before them seemed to carry a dangerous aura about her,one that Lucia desperately wanted to run from. While her dark lavender eyes seemed hold a darkness about them. A smug smirk appeared on the woman's lip as she spoke"That's right,this is all your fault C2."The woman spoke as with tear filled eyes C2 turned towards the vision of the woman her own eyes darkening at the sight of her.

"M2."C2 spat as an arrogant smirk appeared on M2's lips. "C2,how long had it been?"M2 asked casually with the eyes of a viper. One that would turn on anyone who dared gaze upon her wrong. "A century,wasn't enough time away from you."C2 commented as M2 smirked"Indeed,yet here you are. The same coward as always."M2 pointed out as C2 averted her gaze to the ground at her words. Even after a century it still hurt.

"I am no coward,but I won't run. And I won't let you torture those who are precious to me."C2 declared earning an evident cackle from M2. "You mean this,is your family now?"M2 asked referring to the stunned Lucia and a unconscious Castiel. "My how you've fallen."M2 commented sneering at Lucia which made her skin crawl. "They are my family now,and I want you to stop terrorizing them. Torture me,but not them. Please."C2 begged,and it greatly pleased M2. Watching her ex friend,no her old family grovel before it. It was where she belonged.

Underneath her. Below her,the place where C2 belonged. This was what she wanted,what M2 wanted more than anything. But she also wanted the source of her hatred to be in constant pain. Just as she was for so long. M2 eyed Lucia who appeared to be desperately concerned for C2. She cared for her,an immortal. More than any human should. "Alright,I'll cease my torture on your 'family' in exchange for your code."M2 informed her words bringing Lucia back to reality. Without her code C2 would be human. And she could die.

"No C2! You can't! I won't let you!"Lucia cried,she didn't want to lose her. She couldn't let C2 die for her. For Castiel. For anyone. C2 turned towards Lucia a pure smile on her on her face. "I'd do anything for my family."C2 told Lucia who had tears constantly rolling down her cheeks. C2 nodded towards Lucia before turning towards a smirking M2 before feeling her hands wrap tightly around her neck. "You chose wisely. For once. But I'll be back,for their codes as well."M2 whispered into C2's ear causing her to gasp.

"You promised!" "I lied."M2 stated before dragging C2 away into a world beyond. A world C2 knew a too well of. C's World. "Cecily!"Lucia cried out before the two disappeared from sight. With tears streaming down her cheeks Lucia sobbed for her friend. Her sister. She had to find her. She had to save her. But she couldn't do it alone. She needed help. And she needed it now.
