(Original posts were lost, this is a summarised version.) - This post was made with [color=662d91][u]MoonlitCoffee[/u][/color]'s permission. Ji-Eun shook her head at Ver'tiel's request, she held her needle in her hand as she sprinted towards him. Ver'tiel chuckled, she made the decision to have him kill Scarlet, so it was fine for him. As he placed his hand on her forehead, he pushed and nothing happened. [color=ed1c24]"What? That's impossible, what have you done?"[/color] He asked furiously as he turned to face her, only to be greeted by Ji-Eun lunging at him. The needle pierced through his shoulder, it dug deep before exiting on the other side, his mouth filled with blood and dripped on the floor and on her sleeves. [color=ed1c24]"It is because this dreamworld belongs to her, not to you."[/color] Ji-Eun replied. Scarlet was in chains, wrapped around her arms, her legs and her neck, the chains were burning her, a burn singed more than fire yet she only felt the pain but nothing happened to her body in the dream world. The pain prevented her from being able to control anything that was hers in this dream. She turned to Ji-Eun, tears rolling down her face for she couldn't bear the pain no longer. Ji-Eun turned to her, seeing the inventor in pain, she knew she had to free her. She pulled the needle out and ran it through his chest, pushing down, practically immobolising him. [color=ed1c24]"You're too late... It's funny how heroes like you think you have won... Pitiful..."[/color] Said Ver'tiel, as the puddle of blood where he laid increasingly got larger. [color=ed1c24]"It is never too late."[/color] Ji-Eun replied as she jogged over to Scarlet. Ji-Eun attemped to free Scarlet from the chains with her hands, but the same burning feeling happened to her whenever she tried. [color=f26522]"Please... I can't take it... Anymore..."[/color] Scarlet replied as she sobbed in place, she hated this, it was torture like no other. Ji-Eun then ran back to Ver'tiel who had perished at this point and pulled out the needle. She then, in one swing broke one of the chains, now only five to go. As she broke each chain, Scarlet couldn't help but think about why this could be happening or why it was her. [color=ed1c24]"Ms. Emberlee..."[/color] Said Ji-Eun, [color=ed1c24]"You're free."[/color] She continued as she took a step back. Scarlet then stood up and gave Ji-Eun a small smile before everything went white. Suddenly, they were back in the real world, Ji-Eun and Shina were on the ground, unsure of what caused them to fall on the ground. Scarlet was stood back up but she was walking all tipsy unsure of what was going on or what was happening to her. Shina sat up and felt Scarlet walking all weird. [color=0072bc]"Scarlet?"[/color] Shina asked as she pulled herself up on her feet. [color=f26522]"Shina... I... I don't feel so good."[/color] Scarlet stated as she stumbled closer towards Shina, [color=f26522]"I don't-... I don't know whats happening, I-I don't understand-"[/color] Scarlet continued as she fell forward into Shina's arms. Scarlet then started to slowly turn into dust, starting from her fingers she didn't know why it was happening and tears suddenly fell from her eyes. [color=f26522]"I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, Shina please... Please I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go..."[/color] She fell on the ground but Shina cushioned her fall. [color=0072bc]"You're okay, Scarlet look at me, you're going to fine."[/color] Said Shina, Scarlet starting panting, she pulled off Shina's visor, her hair and her ears now being revealed to the world. and placed her hand on her cheek. [color=f26522]"I'm sorry..."[/color] Were the last words that escaped her mouth as she fully faded into dust, but yet the goggles on her fell to the ground. Shina sat there, she felt the goggles fall into her hands then feeling the dust of her friend slip through the spaces between her fingers. She then turned to Ji-Eun and stood up, furiously grabbing her by the collar and pulling her up. [color=0072bc]"What happened to her!?"[/color] She exclaimed at the shorter girl, Ji-Eun was so short that her feet weren't even touching the ground at that point. [color=ed1c24]"I-... I urr... Scarlet, her- her soul... Ver-tiel took it to the underworld."[/color] Ji-Eun replied. Shina then let her go, the expressions of her face wer distraught, shock, fear, mourning, and anger. The ice that she formed throughout that entire fight had all disappeared, and the dust of what was once Scarlet Emberlee flew away. [color=0072bc]"Please leave me alone... I don't want to feel your presence around me anymore more."[/color] Shina replied as she sat there unsure of what to do now. Ji-Eun then scaled down the building, she couldn't help but thing that this was her fault.
