The next morning, Legend decided it was time. Tella could have Jacks, but without her, he had nothing left to live for. Or nothing to die for, to be more exact.
No more Esmeralda. Good. He was never going to make mistakes like that again. Legend was going to either make himself immortal, or die trying. Literally.
Legend cut his hand with a knife, not much different than what Jacks and Tella had done once. But instead of clasping hands with someone, he used his blood to write his name on a piece of parchment. He uttered words under his breath, nasty words, words that could kill or create with one breath. The parchment split and fell to the ground around him, looking like an eerie sort of confetti.
Legend had done it. His skin glowed bronze. He would never be human again. Not if Jacks died, not if Tella ran back to him, begging on her knees. Never.
It was done. Legend hadn't felt this sort of feeling in months. Where just a week ago, his heart had been full of love, it was now cold and empty. He was now cold and empty. And it was all Tella's fault.
