[Final Day] Endgame

[arsgoetia]

And just as suddenly as everything had began, the demons are gone—all of them. Not a single crow feather remains. As if being sucked backwards out of a vacuum, sound and light flood into the room and the hallway, crashing down on you. You are back in the real world, with noise and physics and sunlight streaming in through the window.

You are also left with two bereft Bellcourt children, the older of which is suddenly doubling over in his wheelchair and shouting in anguish.

I'm not sure. Possibly. Things were rather distracting for awhile.

*looking around*

[troublebrewing]

I... would have liked to have said hello, before going. I feel like I missed so much.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

So do I, but I don't regret staying with the group I was with.

[troublebrewing]

Crow and Elliot... really surprised me.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

Did they?

[troublebrewing]

Elliot almost made a pact with the crows... I'm glad he didn't. They're both very strong.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

I see. Kazuki said your team could handle things.

[troublebrewing]

We held it together, but it still felt like there wasn't much we could do.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

Yes. I think that feeling was part of what fueled Kazuki to make the decision he made.

[troublebrewing]

I heard...

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

I would expect so.

[troublebrewing]

... I don't know how I feel about it yet.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

I don't blame you.

[troublebrewing]

I guess for now... I'll just hope he'll be alright. And tell him he's dumb.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

That's fair.

[troublebrewing]

[sighs and looks at her dead phone]

I wish I could text Kieran and Tristan and tell them things have settled down... but it lost battery after I texted earlier for the exorcism.

*...hands her his*

I used it to call Madison, so it's likely starting to run down now, but there might be enough power left for that.

[troublebrewing]

Madison? How is he?

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

He seemed a little surprised at how quickly this all happened, but there's more to come.

[troublebrewing]

So that means... he knew about it.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

He's been having dreams.

[troublebrewing]

Visions?

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

He called them dreams. Visions in the form of dreams, perhaps.

[troublebrewing]

More to come... I suppose that makes sense.

[necessaryevil.livejournal.com]

I wasn't surprised.
