[OLD; DISCONTINUED] Acts of Vengeance

Chapter Eleven: Killed And Saved

7:00PM
SEARCHING THE REGIONS
ONIKA

After realizing that neither Beyoncé, nor Robyn would show up, they decided the most logic thing to do would be to split up.

For the most part, everyone tagged up with someone else.

Cardi went with Abel again, and Chris traveled with Kelly again, yet Enchantress and Onika chose to travel alone.

As much as she was worried for Bey and Robyn, Enchantress was going to search after someone else.

Onika on the other hand, wanted to find Beyoncé for herself. Seeing her pendant getting duller the further she traveled, she figured if Beyoncé was the one hurt, she'd help her.

A life for a life, her debt would be repaid.

She had to find Bey herself. She owed her.

Before long, Onika had wandered into a random part of the forest. Exhausted, and not even sure what Region she was in, she made her way through the thick woods.

Half-running, half-walking, she swung around trees at a slow pace, her eyes were strained to find that bright orange.

Venturing a little deeper into the woods, she came to an opening. This open space was filled with only grass, no trees. But that wasn't what Onika focused her eyes on.

There she was.

Laying in the middle of the open space, hands at side, blood surrounding her.

Onika ran to her side. Putting a hand to her face, she felt that she was ice cold. Panicking in her mind, welling up with tears on the outside, she thought:

Am I too late?

"B-...Beyoncé..?" She dared to utter her name.

No answer.

Finally letting tears fall, she held the woman in her arms.

"Baby, I'm so sorry." She said through tears.

I'm so sorry I couldn't save you.

Her heart felt like it had been ripped from its proper place, and thrown to the bottom of her shoes. It ached.

"I'm sorry..." she said again, this time she repeated it over and over.

Teardrops began to fall onto Beyoncé's skin as she held her.

Onika's pendant erupted with light. Opening her eyes slowly, Onika looked down at Beyoncé.

The stray tears that had landed onto Beyoncé's face had soaked into her skin with a powerful glow to them.

Now sitting up more, Onika looked down at her pendant confused.

Had she done that? Maybe she had fallen asleep from the crying...and this was just a dream? She thought in her head.

A stretch of soft red light began to shoot out from her own hands. Before she even knew what she was doing, her hands were flying to different parts of Beyoncé's body.

She was healing her.

After she had healed most areas, except for the small cuts and scars, she sat there looking at Beyoncé in disbelief.

More like thinking in disbelief.

Onika was more than confused about her own powers. She never knew that she had the power to heal.
