Me and Rai have been in silence for at least 6 hours. We both know something isn't right. I know something most definitely isn't right. I kept getting mild headaches.
Death hasn't shown himself not has he came to talk to me. I'm still trying to figure out the pattern he was creating. What was he waiting for?
First, he appeared here to me. Then, he appeared around Rai and Muzaka.
And I never called for him.

What is he up too?

Frankenstein: Muzaka left faster than expected.
Raizel: ....
Frankenstein: oh, and while you were both gone, Rocktis paid a visit. He said that the human's war has spread to the northern mountains.
Raizel: ...!
Mei: ...!!!

My head ached furiously.
Then I saw images that made my heart stop.
I don't even think Rai or Frankenstein saw that I had vanished.

I had never sped away so quickly before. The images I saw......
The humans murdered and being murdered. The Werewolves,Lukedonia and...
Ashleen is in danger!!!
I never thought I could ever be this fast. My heart was pounding, my mind is racing, flipping, exploding!

Mei: ASHLEEN!!!!

As quickly as I saw her kill one of the men, I swooped her up in my arms.

Ashleen: Mei?

I grabbed the sword and tried to kill one of the men, but he and the horse ended up dodging it by leaping over the weapon. Although their landing wasn't as good. He fell off the horse.

Mei: hurry! Get on!

I quickly put Ashleen on the horse and hops on myself, taking off.

Ashleen: you can't just run us back?!
Mei: no...I used up most of my energy to get here, I'm too weak. We just need to keep going and find Mu...

Through the most I saw a black figure, but I knew this figure anywhere.
....it was death.

An arrow shot Ashleen through her heart.

Mei: ASHLEEN!!!!!!!

In that moment, I didn't know what to do. I didn't have any energy, I couldn't use my powers, I can't heal a heart.
In the spur of my panic, I didn't realize the werewolf that was tailing us was coming straight at me.......suddenly.....

Everything went black.

What was I doing?

Why is it dark?

What happened?

Did I die?

No... I was walking....But "I" was not walking.

Vince: I'm controling your body.
Mei: ....? Death? Where am I?
Vince: you are in your own mind?
Mei: I'm where?.....wait, what happened to Ashleen?!
Vince: ....she's dead....
Mei: ...!?
Vince: I have your body carrying her's.
Mei: what happened? What did you do?
Vince: nothing. When you were attack the ring you had on used some of it's energy to protect you at the last moment.
Mei: vince....you knew..didn't you...?
Vince: ...?
Mei: You knew all of this was gonna happen! You knew and didn't tell me!!!
Vince: what right do I have to tell you death's business? Life is cruel, is it not?
Mei: VINCE!!! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT-!
Muzaka: ASHLEEN!!
Mei: ...?
