~HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN here? Ten minutes? Ten years? I can no longer tell. It is like all time has stopped around me. No longer can I process anything.
All I can feel is emptiness.
As I sit here alone, I begin to wonder what the hell I should even do. Where do I even start?
All questions are answered for me. Van after van appear, coming closer and closer to where my mother and I remain. I easily am able to recognize the vans: the Vampire Reinforcement Department.
Everything around me becomes more and more clear. And one thing for sure becomes clear.
I am no longer sad.
No, anger would be what I feel inside me.
And a desire of vengeance.
As each van comes to a stop, vampire after vampire come rushing over, guns in hand.
"Stay where you are," one shouts as another vampire comes up behind me.
Their faces say it all.
They're scared.
Why? Well, it isn't everyday a pureblood dies.
The feeling of handcuffs around my wrists make me internally laugh. The VDR has always been known for making hasty decisions.
"Layla Hardsworth, you are being taken into lockdown for the suspicion of murder..."
I tune out their words as I am being lead to the back of a black van. I am too busy focusing on the sky. The sun gives it a hue of light pink mixed with blue. The world has such beautiful things, like sunsets. That is why I enjoy it now, because once the van doors close, I can no longer focus on these beautiful things.
Because as a Hardsworth, I can only deal with the ugly of the world.
