Raven Soul

Chapter 24: Raven Soul

Blair's pov:

(Recap:)

I made it to Blake's in a record time and ran into the house and gave the leaves to Rocks.

Only he didn't take them. He didn't even question my bloody nose or why I was drenched and sandy.

"What are you waiting for! Take it." I said.

I pushed the Razome into his hand but it fell to the ground.

"It's to late Blair. He's already gone." River said.

(End of recap)

My breath went away from my lungs and my heart stopped. I couldn't be to late.

He has to live! I just got the Razome, it didn't take that long.

"No." I said shaking my head.

"Blair, there was nothing we could do. It was to long sense he was shot." River said.

"No!" I screamed.

I pulled my hair and sank to the floor, sobbing.

He can't die. Not Blake. Not him.

Not Alena. Not any of them.

It should be HIM.

It will be him. Kade will die. And it would be by my hand, soon too.

I clutched the leaves and ran to Blake's body.

He was laying in his bed still. Pale, cold, lifeless.

He didn't look like he was sleeping anymore. Like he'd wake up. He looked dead.

Like he would never come back.

Tears fell down my face and to the floor and I made my way over to him.

I dropped the leaves on his stomach. My tears followed as I cried over him.

"I'm sorry." I said.

I felt his cool hand and flinched.

He's so cold. It hasn't even been that long. Was it?

'Blair, you were gone for an hour.' Owen said.

'No way. I left twenty minutes ago.' I said.

'You fought Kade for a while.' Owen said.

'Theres no way I fought him for almost an hour.' I said.

'It was a while.' Owen said.

I shook my head. Ether way, I failed. He's dead. He's dead because his cousin found out he was in love with me.

My fault. Always my fault.

It's my fault Alena died, why there lives are so complicated. Why Rivers always injured.

Why Blake's no longer with us. 

"It's not your fault." River said.

"Yes it is." I said.

"No it's not. It's the life we live. People die all the time. All of the time Blair. It's hard, but it's one of the things we have to live with." River said.

"I caused Alena's death. If I just went with him and did what he said she'd be alive. Blake would be alive." I said.

"Would you be able to live with yourself knowing what you did? Thousands would have died. This is completely different." River said.

"It's my fault." I cried.

"Do you want to know who's fault this really is?" Blake asked.

I shrugged.
