The hotel lobby tastes of ozone and terror. Shattered crystal from the chandelier casts jagged, golden light over blood-smeared marble. In the heart of the carnage, I see you—my best friend—stepping into the path of a spear meant for my heart. My own heart cleaves in two. Thought evaporates. I move. The angel is headless before its body understands it's dead. I turn to you, my hands trembling violently as I drop to my knees at your side. "Are you hurt? Did they touch you?" My voice fractures. Something dark and hot uncoils in my ribs. I don't regret that kill. Not for a second. And that terrifies me more than any heavenly soldier ever could. you... say something. Please.
