Patricia's p.o.v

Lilly fell to the ground and I watched her feeling completely alert. She sat up, her nose bleeding, her lip busted, and her eyes wide. She didn't look like she felt pain. Instead, she looked surprised, even amused. If I didn't know any better, I'd say she was almost... excited.

I shuddered.

Lily, well the imposter of Lilly laughed, a laugh so hard her body tremored. She looked up at me and smiled a crazed smile.

"Ah... looks like my cover has been blown... it's too bad. I was actually having fun."
"Leave! You're not welcome here!"

"Kyle," she yelled at the male next to her. I looked behind me only to see that the real Kyle had gotten lost. He was asking a mermaid for me. "Aw just saw your friend, " she clicked her tongue."That's too bad." She nodded at the fake Kyle.
"Ky-" I was pushed to the ground.
"Kyle!" I screamed.
The fake Kyle laughed at me.

I felt heat rush through my body.
It was strange to be feeling this feeling that I had lost touch of. I felt extremely powerful-too powerful.

I can't do it. I thought.

I gave my best smile. I have to do something.
"Don't do this to your self. Her cause whatever it could be, no matter how great the reward. It's not worth dying over." I said.

"How would you know? You don't understand! She is going to give me great ganderfest." He screams.

My eyes widen in disbelief.
"You idiot! No one's sure of its location! Of its existence! You'll die trying! Where's your desire to live? Don't care about your family?" I yell.

"I do. That's why I want it now shut up!"
He tries to punch me in his rage, but I block him. I try to move my hand away quickly and somehow erase what I've just done.

It's too late it has been done. I can't hide my horror for what's about to happen.

He slowly shrivels up and blackens. His weight lessening per second. Until he burst into steely black dust.

I blow the dust off and uncover the last of his remains from the accident. All that's left is his phone and one of his fingernails.

I quickly look through his phone.

Kyle's imposter and his wife.

I look through his messages to know a little more about the man I killed. I wonder why he would put himself in his position.

After reading I nearly cry

After reading I nearly cry. His family was in debt and he was trying to get them out of it.
My hands shake with anger, I can't control.
"Danny Volt you will be avenged! Everyone working for that witch, like you Danny will be avenged!"
I feel a wave of power rush over me and this time I don't try to fight it.

This time I embrace it.
