Misha recoiled. "It was [i]me[/i]. Not you!" She held her place for a moment, then broke into bitter, self-deprecating laughter. "That's so cliche." She put her hand to her head in exasperation. "Why?" She stared at Kianna. "Because I'm a damn bad person. And I was sick of feeling like I was dragging everybody down. So I went somewhere they'd leave me alone."
