IC: Tabitha was about to follow the others when words from the past echoed in her ears.

[b]Died.[/b]

[i]A younger Tabitha pulled a wounded man out of a burning car, not noticing how abnormally light he was.[/i]

The older Tabitha shuddered and fell to the ground, a nearby evil pounding into her ears, into her skull, into the base of her mind, her back starting to ache, her entire body wracked in pain. Her blade glowed brighter-

[b]Yesterday.[/b]

[i]He smiled and thanked her, not even flinching when the other man touched his shoulder.[/i]

Something looked like it was crawling under the skin of Tabitha's back, trying to burst out, the daughter of Hades biting her lip so hard that blood was running down her chin, that presence pounding, pounding, [i]pounding-[/i]

[b]Morning.[/b]

[i]A wink and they were gone, the midnight feather falling, falling into her.[/i]

A massive tearing sound and a shriek of pain, the back of her shirt punctured by two pitch black wings, spreading wide and drying in the air, the uninjured part of the shirt turning red with blood before the wounds healed over, the presence dying away, acting wary.
