Playlist: Shoot to kill-Tommee Profitt

It was maybe half an hour later that she walked back inside the house, or maybe it was even hours, she couldn't really tell. 

And she's walking back inside the house, forgetting about the kiss or atleast trying to, about him leaving, this time not sure for how long or if she'll even see him again. There were many thoughts jumbled in her head, she didn't like when that happened, she didn't like the place her mind has become. She hated being left alone with her thoughts.

Nothing ever ended well when that happened. And she needed to stay in control if she wanted to avenge the hazel eyed boy.

She couldn't rush into it, not after what happend the last time she did that.

She was surprised though when she had entered the training room to find the white haired woman there, the only one left in there, leaving her to wonder where the rest were. But then she reminds herself that she's walked straight ahead into the lab and towards the training room without much sense of her surroundings. She noticed that happening to her ever since she awakened again, not having any sense of people, time or surroundings.

Almost like she was detached from any sense and feelings. Living for one goal and one goal only now.

"What are you still doing here?"

She comes to a stop, her gaze soulless, reminding the white haired woman how she was like the first time she came back from the dead to realise what she's become. But years passed and she was now all too comfortable with how detached she's become to everything. It's easier to let go of emotions and your past life when those things are suddenly taken away from you. Helps keeping your head forward instead of stumbling over your feet.

"I said I came to help...but I also came with the intention to tell you some things" she said with a shrug.

"You mean like advice? Because save your bullshit for yourself, you're lucky I haven't killed you...yet" Leo spat out.

"I'm already as good as dead, I don't have much time, Davies made sure of that. So your little threat, isn't much of a threat, sweetheart" she wore her infamous smirk, the same one that always drove the brunette crazy.

"Atleast I'll have the satisfaction of taking your last breath myself...sweetheart "

This time it was Leo who smirks sadistically with a tilt of her head. She wasn't going to let anyone play any more mind games on her, not after all she's been through. She's smarter than to make the same mistakes again.

"You've come a long way, I see. I'm glad you're the one that got powers similiar to mine. Only strong minds like ours could handle this much power"

"I don't want those powers-" Leo started angrily.

"You think I do! Like Andy, I didn't choose this life, I was forced into it. But not all of us mops around, some of us actually accepts the truth to move on with life" the white haired woman spat out, her cool composure crumbling as anger flashed through her eyes.

"You call that living!" Leo scoffs at that.

"Its not much, but it's what we're given...look, I didn't come here to argue. I'll tell you how you could control your powers instead of it controlling you instead and then I'm on my merry way to death"

With a tilt of her head, the white haired woman is wearing a smirk, but it wasn't one of amusement. But rather resentment and bitterness. At what, the brunette was sure she could think of a few things.

"When you died, your soul was tainted. People were never made to see death, feel it, only to live again. It had to have it's own consequences. A huge part of your soul has held hands with death, whether you like it or not. You're never going to be the same. All you can really do is try and keep that darkness in check, try and control it"
