It had been a long few days since Nyx had been taken, and my classes had been brutal. Without her behind me I just felt like nothing was right in the world. Like everything I knew was taken from me.

I got up from my desk and headed out to my next class. I was dreading the call from Jenkins telling me that Nyx would be executed. There had been no news on Nyx killing killing people since she'd been imprisoned. So it was really looking like Nyx had been the culprit to the Guild.

Someone grabbed the back of my shirt and pulled me into a supply closet. I went to scream, but a hand covered my mouth and muffled the sound.

I was pinned up against the far wall and I found that Nyx was staring back at me, her eyes still purple but no longer glowing the way they usually did.

"Nyx!?" I tried to say but she still had her hand over my mouth.

She smiled softly. "Hey." She answered as she removed her hand from my mouth.

"What happened? How are you here?"

"I snuck out." She admitted. "I really missed you."

"I missed you too." I leaned in and kissed her and she returned it, but something felt wrong. There was no spark or love, it just felt like she kissed me to kiss me.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"Tired." She admitted. "I've been sitting in a cell for almost a week. But I just couldn't sleep." She sighed.

"How'd you get in the school without them noticing?" I asked.

"They aren't very smart." She added with a smirk. "So I figured I'd come see you."

"I'm glad you did." I smiled softly. "Nyx I-"

I was cut off when my phone went off. I was surprised I had bars in the closet, but oh well. When the Guild's caller ID came up I already knew what to expect.

"Hello?"

"Hey Devin... I have some really bad news." Jenkins sighed.

"Oh?"

"Nyx is going to be executed tonight. I tried everything to get your father to let her go, but he refused. I wanted to let you talk to her before hand."

"Wait... You're with her?" I asked.

"She's right here." Jenkins passed the phone to someone, and Nyx sighed deeply from the other end of the line.

"Hey Devin."

"N-Nyx?" I asked.

"Yeah hun. I'm sorry things turned out the way they did. Jenkins is going to help me get out and go to Exodious where I'll visit you whenever I can."

"Nyx... Um... You need to get here right now..." I told her.

"I wish I could but-"

"Nyx... You are talking to me on the phone, yet your standing right in front of me... Get your fucking hybrid ass over here right now."

The Nyx in front of me wrapped her hands around my neck and lifted me into the air, pinning me against the wall. The phone fell from my grasp and clattered to the floor before the fake Nyx stomped on it and broke it to pieces. "How unlucky of that timing." She smiled devilishly. "It's almost like it was planned or something."

Lyall! I bellowed out in thought.

I'm on my way! She answered.

"W-Why are you doing this? Why are you framing Nyx?" I managed.

"Because it's fun, and someone else gets blamed for it." She smiled. "If you had all the power in the world, why would you waste it on behaving?"

"Because its morally right!" I retorted.
