Chapter five - Inner Conflict Hate is fear I rip at my face in the mirror death approaching expiration growing nearer I'm rotting inside I'm disgusted with myself I'm in hell [© Carnivore, Inner Conflict] Lyn stumbled the streets down. Her vision was blurred from the tears that threatened to fall and her throat hurt from the choking. She didn’t knwo where to go to. Her best friend was... only god knew. And alas she hadn’t the address of Zan. And no money. She just wanted to be away fromm people. So she ran into the forest nearby. There she leaned against an old tree and wept. A slender hand grsped her shoulder. She turned around and loocked into the blue eyes (so much like Xan’s) of Zan. “Oh, sweety. What happened?” asked Zan in a soothing voice. “X...Xa....” sniffed Lyn. And then her friend saw the rfed marks on her throat. Her eyes lit up, just for a moment. “What did he do?” “He...” Lyn sniffed again, “He choked me...” Zan drew her in an embrance. “Why do you end up with people you don’t deserve?” she murmured in sympathy. “I... they are not---” tried Lyn to defend them weakly. “They use you and then they toss you away” said Zan merciless. Lyn shuddered as she remembered Xanatos calling her a whore, choking her. “I’m to weak” she murmured. “I... I can help you becoming strong” whispered Zan almost seductive. “You could?” “You can get stronger than Xanatos. You could get your revenge!” “Revenge...” Lyn echoed. She hadn’t thought of that. But... it sounded good. Getting even with her friends! Zan smiled at the look on Lyns face. “Come with me. I’ll make you stronger” And Lyn did. Katja got out of the bathroom. Samuel had just finished cleaning up. “You want some coffee?” asked Katja, a little awkward and made her way to the kitchen. Samuel followed her. “Coffe sounds good” he agreed. In silence they waited until the hot drink was brewed. “About...” Katja began, wanting to appologize for the scene she had caused. But Samuel interrupted her: “Don’t be sorry. You must feel awful here without anyone you can confine in. And then I come and tell you these things...” Katja smiled a little. It would have been better if I had been married to him, she thought. “Don’t give up hope. I’m going to get you outta here” Samuel said, his voice full of confidence. “Why do you want to help me? Why getting yourself in danger?” Samuel didn’t asnwer but his cheeks reddened. Katja understood at once that he fancied her. “Thank you” she whispered. “Er... no problem... I... I gotta go” He said embarassed and stumbled through the door. “Visit me sometime again!” Katja called after him and shut the door close. Srew Lyn! Finally she had found someon in this hellhole who she could entrust herself to. Who needed Lyn? Xanatos duCrion was furious. His anger was too much for him to handle and it unleashed itself, completely. And now he needed someone to hurt... to kill...! So he, driven by dark emotions left the appartement. Like a menace, revengeseeking spirit he strolled the streets down. Searching. Nd then he felt a tugging. Something was urging him to get left. There, he knew, he would find a victim... . His heart race increased. He followed the calling. And then there she was, the victim. A woman with dirty blond hair and brown eyes. He stood suddenly before her. Like a demon he glowered. She shrieked. Xanatos smiled, drawing strength from her fright. Then he reached out to her lifeforce. He felt it in his grasp, fickle like a candle in a storm. So ease to dim. To distinguish. The woman tried to get away from this man, feeling the danger he posed. But she couldn’t Her eyes were locked with his. And there was something in his cold eyes that didn’t let her go. Xanatos tightened his grasp on her lifeforce. The woman gasped. First tentiavely, luxuriously he squeezed it. As her force dimmed, her eyes did the same. Deth was near. And then, he ripped at the lifeforce, violently. Her eyes widened and a scream escaped her lips. Her body convulsed. It was desparately struggling not to loose its soul. But it was a lost battle. After a last spasm her body fell lifeless to the ground. Her brown eyes bored into Xanatos’. And suddenly this wasn’t just a nameless woman but his beloved. He had killed her. He hadn’t stoped. She had pleaded and begged and he had killed her. But this wasn’t true. Lyn lived. He had let her go. This was not Lyn. He was back to reality. No, this wasn’t Lyn. But it could have been her. And suddenly his anger arose anew. But this time it was directed at himself. He left the alley. Left the dead boffdy of the nameless woman. He fleed from the dead accusing eyes (eyes so much like his beloveds!). He wanted to flee fom himself. But he couldn’t. He couldn’t make undone what had happened. But he could mend it.
