I am a killer.
Yes, it sounds bad and the folks at home are probably thinking that I am a girl with a screw loose. Yes, it sounds terrible because it is what I have dedicated my life to for years; and yes, it sounds horrific because it is—these hands, this heart and mind just robbed a girl of a future that she has been dreaming of since childhood.
I am a killer, yes, and I am a murderer, sure, but I could not let her get away with putting a bullet through Jacob's head. One bullet that is capable of doing so much damage did exactly that; the aftermath that followed was gruesome but still, I managed to find the silver lining and look past the gore to the glory.
A dark obsession with death, murder means that I will be remembered. My lust for blood has been satisfied, for now, and my soul not longer shakes with thirst. It is calm, I am calm despite all that has happened in the past few minutes.
Fear me, I think, because I am the anomaly. Cold hands and a cold heart—it's a toxic concoction.
My hands are bloodied and cannot stop the acid from rising in my body. It's just who I am and if the repercussions of being true to the girl within are cruel, so be it.
She had it coming, after all. If everyone else isn't careful, I'll make sure they are next.
Hero and I leave the boat, Jacob's body falling into the depths of the water beneath us. There is no saving him now, and all I can ask for is that he was content with himself in the moments before he died. Different people awaken different beasts in a person, and I hope that Hero and I awaken one that made him realise his worth.
Skies quickly turn grey above us. It's probably a sign but I don't have time to read it; rain hammers down and lightning creates a show, cracking through the storm to show us some light. The one place that Hero and I could find some sense of solace in becomes lost. The seas become sharp with the weather change, the serenity being chopped away rapidly.
The wind calls, but it gives us no time to answer before it takes us into it's arms and throws us to the black shores that surround the volcano. Clementina Ogden's blood washes off in the sea as if it wants me to forget. I was always told that first murder is like first love, both are unforgettable.
Whilst the sun begins to set over the treacherous seas, the two of us are given a moment to fully digest recent events.
We are killers—I am a killer. Shout it from the rooftops and let it be known that I am a big bad wolf.
"Just the two of us, now." I say, staring out to the horizon. Realising our worth, we are more wild than ever before. "We're dangerous, you know, and I like it."
