~Third person~
It didn't work.
Their plan didn't work.
Melanie angrily clutched her bleeding chest. Katy had driven her sword right through her, after saying she would do what was best for her.
She lied.
She looked up at the sky, not a cloud in sight, only seemingly infinite sand dunes lay before her. Dunes that raptors could spring from at any given moment.
"Dammit."
Just because she felt no pain, didn't mean she couldn't die. Gemma was proof of that. She needed to heal, and the barracks was still a few miles away.
She was going to die.
The silent shifting of sand under weight caught her attention, and she looked up to see a bike coming her way. Before she could make out the rider, a wave of heat and pain flashed through her head.
Jadis.
"Stop, it's me!" She yelled as the bike came to a stop. The pain reduced as the rider got off and took of her helmet.
Her brown hair was in a low ponytail, her white highlight ends shone painfully in the sunlight. Ruby red eyes looked down at her ragged figure.
"Where's Hector?" She asked sharply.
"Dead." Melanie answered just as sharp.
Jadis' eyes widened. She almost didn't know what to do if Hector didn't give an order. She was indecisive on her own, and Melanie didn't see any good points to having a person like her around.
She quickly composed herself and tilted her chin, "You look grotesque... We need to move. Gather our resources and come up with a plan-"
She was cut off by a wet cough erupting from her chest. Melanie had her left hand stretched out, black spoke extending from it into Jadis. She coughed out a cupful of blood and fell backwards as Melanie retracted her arm.
"Do you... want me to kill you?!" Jadis struggled angrily from the sand as Melanie held the spike over her neck.
Melanie picked up the helmet and snarled; "Not in your lifetime."
The sand dunes shifted as the bike sped off once more. Raptors slowly emerged to the stench of fresh blood, screeching to the feast like wolves to the moon.
Someone did die, but it's wasn't Melanie. She had plans; for Shika, who had abandoned them when they needed her most.
This wasn't over.
Not by a long shot.
