Different times, right? :)
I am not afraid. I am not afraid.
Kirien chanted to herself as she paced outside the doors that would decide her fate.
I don't get afraid! I can't... get afraid!
She told herself, but she still trembled every time she glanced at the doorknob, she still walked in frenzied circles. She still jumped at the slightest sound, searching for someone to snatch her into the shadows.
What do I do? What's going to happen to me?
Could they expell her? Could they banish her? Could they imprison her? Torture she wouldn't mind too much, she was sure...but would they kill her?
What would Father say?
Killing humans. You might as well have stepped on an ant! How shameful. You still can't take on your own kind, and now, you get caught? You're worthless, little girl.[/b]
If she was expelled, banished, imprisoned...
He'll throw me out! She realized, and stopped circling, wide eyed. He won't ever want to see me again! Where would I go? I don't have that much money, I-
She sank to the floor and hugged her knees, sniffling.
I don't wanna do this! I don't wanna go in here all my myself! I should have gone with Cylo...stupid, stupid, stupid...
She wished she could cry, just to get it over with, but the stupid tears would not fall! They just...gathered together but stubbornly stayed put! Taunting her.
This is stupid. I hate it! I wanna go away! I don't like it here! Maybe if I'm really quiet, I can get away and they won't even notice...
Slowly, she pulled herself to her feet, brushed her long sleeves against her eyes, and stared stubbornly at the stupid doorknob. She wished it would break or something. It deserved it for giving her so much trouble! But when her feet finally began moving, she found that she wasn't moving away from the doorknob, but toward it.
No...I can't run away! I probably killed two people, but...I have to...face that. I won't be sad. I won't be afraid.
When she walked through the door, there wasn't a trace of the fear and doubt she just showed. She was all confidence, and she truly felt powerful.
"My name is Kirien Melantha. I'm eighteen years old, but I'm really short! I'm good at school but best at fighting. I'm half-demon and half-war dragon. Mommy left a long time ago, so I've been living with Daddy.
"I probably killed two people. Now what do we do?"
I'm not afraid.
I am not afraid. I am not afraid.
