a new day has arrived, the girls are sitting at a table. no one's checked on beca yet.

"okay, chloe, are you sure?"

"one hundred percent whatever that thing is, it's been in my custody too long, time to kill it once and for all," she says when she looks at everyone.

"okay then, you know, you can't do anything until beca's eyes are glowing, you do something that could end badly."

Chloe nods when she hears Amy's explanation.

"the rest of you stay on the side, as soon as Beca gets back, we'll act, close the wound as soon as possible."

everyone nods and wants to get up.

"Wait... I can't kill her if she's tied up."

"how come, Chloe tight it's going wrong" says Emily worried

"I know, I just can't."

"I understand, are you sure?" says Aubrey laying a trusted hand on Chloe's.

"Sure, I don't want to do it today, it's gonna go wrong, I want my last hours with Beca."

"no problem, I think if it goes wrong everyone still wants to say goodbye to Beca." "Stacie says in a calm tone and a smile.

"okay, I'll go to Beca now, maybe you guys can take care of the stuff."

Everyone nods and walks away, Chloe walks to Beca's room and slowly opens the door, to be met by the steel blue eyes.

A smile appears on her face, closes the door behind her and sits down with her.

"hey Beale, I was afraid you weren't coming"

"I leave you here alone, over my dead body," she gives Beca a kiss.

"She wants to put a hand on Chloe's leg, hurting that she can't do anything, just look, answer or listen.

"It hurts me to tell you this, I can't tell you either."

"Chloe- what's up?" her voice sounds worried, she's looking at Chloe, hoping for an answer from the ginger.

"we know how to get that demon out of you..."

"that's good news-"

"You must die if the demon is to leave your body," she cries out, tears rolling down her cheeks again, trying to stay strong, it failed.

Time stands still. Slowly, word for word repeats the sentence in Beca's head.

you must die for the demon to leave your body

die

I have to... die

For a moment she blinks her eyes, swallows the big chunk that came into her throat. The words that are still ghosting around. The sweetest thing she'd like right now is to hold Chloe, firmly in an embrace, and the time she has left to be with her, telling her how much she loves her. The future she first saw before her is now a question.

On new she swallows "how much time do I have left?" She looks at Chloe rubbing tears off her face.

"See you tomorrow..."

All she can do is nod.

was this it? your last day tied to a bed? the woman who is your true love... leaving your true love in a world so dark.... no future...

"Chloe, listen to me"

she looks up and meets the strong determined eyes of the brunette

"do this for me, untie me, let me hug you for my last few hours, please, if necessary, leave Aubrey at the door with a syringe if things go wrong, don't leave me lying helplessly on the bed here waiting for my time to come."

They look at each other. Then, without saying a word, Chloe walks out of the room.

Not much later, she returns with a key. Aubrey's outside the door. She starts the bandages to loosen the brunette's legs, then the cuffs to remove beca's wrists.

She rubs her hand over the wrists, which have become a bit rough because of the cuffs, but soon she walks up to the ginger and hugs her. as firm as she can. the tough jug disappears, for a sad, soft side. a side that shows that there is fear, afraid of what is going to happen.

Slowly, without letting go, they sink to the ground and stay like this for a long time. Without talking.

"I love your beale so much, I've seen a whole future."

Chloe looks up, who had her head on Beca's chest.

"What did you see?"

"Us, together... "me proposing marriage, eventually we're gonna get married, maybe even have kids, and later when we're old we'll sit on the porch together looking at the world around us."

A tear escapes Chloe's eyes, not a tear of sorrow, but of happiness, she wasn't the only one who thought that way, about the future of the two of them. It was something they both wanted, before beca knew it, Chloe's lips were on hers again and became a common kiss passionately.

"Did you really think you were rid of me! The game's not over!"

Beca stops what she was with, with both hands she goes to her head, eyes closed.

"Beca?" Chloe looks worried. When she sees how much Beca is struggling right now.

"g-ga s-fast" she shrinks on the floor, pain racing through her body.

Chloe doesn't hesitate for a second and opens the door "Aubrey."

Aubrey gets up and quickly walks into the room and is met by Beca's steel blue.

"Beca"

"Hurry up, I-I can't take it anymore."

With not a second to lose, Aubrey grabs the syringe and quickly sticks it into Beca's neck. She thins backwards when she sees the color in the eyes change and a glow emerges. Slowly but surely 'beca' gets up, with a grin on her face she looks at Aubrey. Quickly, but stumbling, she runs towards Aubrey. Not seeing that Chloe has grabbed an iron tube, Beca's cap hits the back of the head, causing her to knock out. She falls to the ground with a blow. Chloe drops the tube and goes down her knees to watch Beca. Her eyes are closed but you can see the glow through it.

"how much did you use?" she asks when she looks at Aubrey breathing from the shock.

"Much, she won't wake up until tomorrow morning and when she does, you'll know what to do."

Chloe looks back at Beca, slowly blood appears near beca's head.

"shit, I may have hit a little too hard, Aubrey quick, get some bandages."

Without a moment's hesitation she walks out of the room, only to return not much later with a first aid box. Carefully they try to patch Beca up. Chloe wraps the bandage around Beca's head as soon as Aubrey has finished fixing the wound.

Carefully they lay Beca back on the bed together, with only the hands tied for now, and get ready for what's to come...
