Lise wasn't thinking straight when she did that. The only thought in her mind was the fact that the little girl was a beast and there was no way Sol would be able to fight her off, though her beast was rather small, since she was only a child, but it didn't eliminate the fact that she was a non- human being.
Lise just wanted the beast to stay away from Sol, because she couldn't afford to watch him being shredded into pieces, her heart wouldn't be able to take it. That would be too much for her to endure.
That was why she shoved her to the edge of the building. The beast would survive, she was not human. She would survive this height.
However, Lise didn't realize that even a beast could die.
Once she managed to push her to the edge of the building and almost fell alongside her, Lise felt someone grab her wrist and pull her back to the safe place again.
Yet, she would never forget what she was seeing right now…
The beast was falling weightlessly straight to the solid asphalt, but before that, she was only a dot of white, as she fell further down, in the middle of the night, without any light around them, because of the power outage that occurred in this area.
And even though Lise couldn't hear it, once the beast hit the ground, she could imagine the sound of it.
Everything seemed blurry and time turned so slow, the world went silent and the cold night's wind was the only reminder for Lise that this was not a f*cking dream. She killed her. Lise had killed the little girl.
She was a beast!
A voice in her head scolded her, but it didn't make her feel any better.
And when the realization hit her hard, everything around her returned to normal and the world became so rowdy.
Lise could recognize Gael's voice that roared in anger and pain, as he was trying to move toward the edge of the building to see the dead body of the white beast, yet it was hard for him to do that, as the poison had almost killed him too.
Meanwhile, Sol was trying to stop her, yelling loudly at her.
Apparently, Lise was trying to jump from the building as well. She was crying, wailing at the top of her lungs. She was uncontrollable. Everything came to her at once and it was too much for her to handle.
"Please, stop it, Lise… no, it's not your fault, it's not your fault." Sol kept repeating his words, as he was trying to hold her still, preventing the girl from taking her own life.
"I killed her… I killed her… I KILLED HER!"
The night was very cold, but it was nothing for those broken-hearted people, who had lost so many and had their fair share of dysphoria in this world.
Their grief was beyond words…
And once Gael finally reached the edge of the building, his eyes wide opened. Fear and horror graced his features, as he turned his head toward Lise and Sol.
"Take her now! Get out of here! Take the helicopter and leave immediately!" Gael yelled at them, his voice was hard and his expression was furious because they didn't move as fast as he wanted them to.
Of course, Sol needed time to digest the situation and the change of Gael's behavior.
There was no way he would let him take Lise with him, unless there was something more terrifying that came their way and it would cost Lise's life.
Sol was tempted to see what that imbecile creature had seen down there…
=================
Chaos felt it when something happened to Knox. At the end of the day, he was part of him. He was a piece of his shattered soul, therefore there was no way he didn't feel him when he vanished, as someone had killed him.
Those people could kill him a thousand times, but as long as Chaos was alive, he wouldn't die before he ceased to dust.
Once Chaos appeared, he found himself in the middle of a fight between the organization and the beasts from Anthony's pack. He understood the situation just at a single glance.
Yet, their fight had nothing to do with him. He appeared here because he needed to revive Knox to this realm.
The two parties that were fighting against each other, suddenly stopped and stared at the man, who had suddenly appeared in the middle of their fight and strode casually.
"That's Chaos!" One of the members of the organization made a ruckus at his appearance, as the other members pointed their guns at him.
The sounds of gunshots rang through this dark basement, dozens of bullets were shot at Chaos's back, but none of them could touch him.
The bullets fell to the ground pitifully, without even being able to graze his skin.
Meanwhile, Chaos didn't seem to bother with the futile attempt to kill him, as he bent down his body and touched the ground of the basement, the same spot where Knox was killed earlier. He even could feel Blue's faint presence, which meant she was with him before.
One touch and the air became very thick and hot around him. It was very humid until it suffocated the rest of the people and the beasts near him, as they were too close to him.
Without a second thought, those people moved away from him and put a great distance between them, but still managed to see the miracle that happened there.
At first, it was only air that swirled from his hand, but then the air molded into a human's figure and in the next second, it turned into Knox. He stood there, slightly exhausted, but alive.
Chaos stood up and was about to walk away to find Blue, since he had nothing to do with their fight, but all of a sudden, he fell to his knees, clutching his chest, when he was trying to locate her…
