Madeline:
I couldn't tell whether I was happy that I would have died and been reunited with Gina and Baxter after fifteen days, or angry that Bodhi and Elara would have been left behind.
Either way, it would have been cruel.
They would have been the ones left to suffer.
"So, I'm going to die?" I asked in a monotone.
"No. That's what I'm trying to tell you." She let out a small laugh. "The monster used its tongue to save you. It cured you."
I stared at her in confusion.
"It seems its saliva has some kind of healing properties," she continued.
My heart slowly began to stir again, as though it were fluttering back to life.
"So you're telling me that if—" I paused as my voice broke.
I could tell she realized I was about to cry.
"That maybe, if a very sick person is brought here and it uses its saliva, that person might survive?"
Tears streamed down my face as I asked the question.
By then, I could tell that while I had been unconscious, Ron must have filled her in on Baxter's situation.
The moment I asked, her smile started to fade.
"I'm so sorry about what happened to Baxter."
As soon as she said that, she wrapped her arms around me.
I broke down and cried hysterically.
"The monster should have let me die. It killed Baxter. Why is it trying to save me?" I hissed.
"You know, it also killed Gina. She was just a baby."
I grunted, my fists clenching at my sides.
"You know what I'll do to that monster when I'm done with everybody else?"
I broke the hug and started rocking back and forth.
"I'll capture it and pluck it feather by feather until it's bleeding and begging for mercy."
My voice grew louder and heavier with every word.
I could tell Nala was worried about me, but I didn't fucking care.
I wanted to burn this world down.
The pain of losing Gina and Baxter, and now having both of my children taken from me, was hitting me hard.
They had ruined my life.
"Nala, I came from the human world, and I did everything to save their children. Instead, they took mine from me. They took my love from me."
I buried my face in my hands and cried.
"Um—there's a problem."
My sobs were interrupted when Ron rushed into the room.
He abruptly stopped when I lifted my head to look at him.
"Um, Nala, can we talk?"
He addressed Nala instead, but I pushed myself up in haste.
