"Did you honestly think you could pretend to be me, and that no one would notice?" I ask Sakura as I pin her to the bloodied ground."I don"t know what you"re talking about; you blood sucking, heart reaping…

"Shout up," I say as I slap her across the face and dig the heel of my toe steel boots into her stomach and draw a bloodied claw across her face and down her throat. "Don"t you ever get tired of listening to yourself? Seriously, how could anyone believe you"re me? And the guise, oh the guise. It"s so outdated, and wrong. When I looked like this," I gesture at her appearance, "well not b.l.o.o.d.y and broken, but you get where I"m going with this right? Anyways my name wasn"t Sakura it was Kira, I didn"t use Sakura till the late 1600th. If your going to imitate someone, you must do it right you stupid wh.o.r.e," I say as I bring down a long curved blade with the head of a screaming woman for a hilt down into the center of "Sakura"s" skull shattering bone as I dig it in even deeper. Then I take a long blade made of dragon"s scale and pierce it into the place were "Sakura"s" heart should be.
"About time," Tessa says from amongst the shadows as all around us the fighting ceases.
"b.i.t.c.h," I say as the last of the frost she gave me fades away. "How much time do I have?"
"I"m not sure," she says as she scans the perimeter in search of something. I follow her gaze to find Gabriel fallen and half-dead. Tessa doesn"t look my way nor at those around her she just walks towards him as if he we"re all that matters as if Gabriel was the only other being there beside her. "No," she whispers as she falls to her knees and the remnants of their pack form a protective circle around their weeping Queen and now soul Alpha. "Gabriel, please wake up, I need you. They need you," she places his hand on her growing belly and nuzzles her face in his neck.
"Tessa," Lena says as she takes her human form and slowly approaches Tessa.
"No," is all Tessa says, and Lena stops in mid step. Then she lifts her head and as if smelling the air, without warning or hesitation Tessa runs towards Saya tears out her throat in manor of seconds then before anyone can stop her, she kills Arrow. Finally, she walks very slowly towards Yulis who struggles to remain standing.
"Please forgive me, I didn"t know," Yulis says as Tessa stands before him eyes the color of storms.
"You didn"t know," she repeats as thunder brakes in the northern skies, "he didn"t know," she says again with a bit of a maniac laugh. "How the f.u.c.k could you not know?" she lifts him to his feet and walks towards Gabriel. "A soul for a soul," she says and what she does next no one stops. The moment she restores Gabriel"s soul she kills Yulis and tosses his corps to the feet of the reaper that stands before us.
"Death disapproves," the reaper says.
"Oh yeah, have her tell me herself, but before she does remind her, she owes me too many d.a.m.ned favors for her to deny me this one thing," and with that Tessa, Gabriel, and both the living and dead members of their pack vanish from sight.
