The girl cried. Her tears rolling down her face as she held the knife, the killers words replaying in her mind over and over.
"Kill yourself... Or we kill the boy"
"Kill yourself... Or we kill the boy"
"Kill yourself... Or we kill the boy"
The girl lifted the knife and held it to her throat, the room was so quiet she could of sworn she heard her teardrops making a small noise as they fell to the cold hard floor.
Her brothers face flashed before her eyes and she cried harder. The boy had gone through so much, their mothers death, theirs fathers betrayal, his best friends banishment. With only his sister to be there for him. To protect him.
The girls thoughts where torn as she heard a rapture on the wall behind her, she turned her head to see that the wall was actually glass and in the other side was her twin brother banging on the glass screaming but she could not hear his screams they were muffled through the thick glass and in that instant her mind was clear, she knew what she had to do.
The girl smiled a tear stained smile and mouthed three words before slitting her throat.
The boy screamed for his sister to stop that it was all a trick he banged on the glass as hard as he could but could not get through to her. He screamed and screamed but his sister just smiled and mouthed three words before cutting her own throat. With one last scream he fell to the floor still banging on the walls. The only person in his life that he loved more than anything, gone. Forever. He thought of the few words she had said and then he had smiled himself, a sad smile and then after a few moments, out loud, he replied to his sisters words
"I love you too sis."
