Evan had to sneak over to his house to grab some of his clothes. He helped me pick out my clothes, I thought he would have bad taste. He matched a halter top with ripped jeans and low heeled combat boots. Turns out he has great taste. He dressed while I did my makeup and hair, staring at his reflection in the mirror I couldnt help but ogle his abs. He caught me as he tugged a shirt over his head and sent me a heated grin as I walked by him to grab my purse and bag.

He decided that we might as well head out together. So we treked our way down and out the front door, where he waited for me to lock my front door. He was walking me to his car when Max marched his way over and shoved him, knocking me to the ground.

"Did you sleep with my girl? I told you to stay away from her, Evan!" Max yells as he swings at his brother. I yell at him to stop but he doesnt listen, neither of them do. Evan, of course, snaps when he sees me cradling my elbow. He punches Max back and it turns into a brawl. They were really hirting each other. Blood was flying everywhere as lesions were cut from the impact of their fists.

I yelled and they ignored me again. "You dont get it do you, brother. She was mine since the beginning. We were meant to be. She is my soulmate!" Evan yells as he pushes Max to the ground.

Max leaps back up and knocks Evan with and uppercut, causing Evan to fall to the ground. He struggles to knock Max off as Max settles his hands around Evans through. His intent was clear, he mea t to kill Evan.

I couldnt let it happen. I stood up, not really knlwing what to do. Something was building up inside of me. I felt tbat if I didnt let go, I'd explode. "STOP!" I scream. A wave of kinetic energy pulses out from me, knocking Max several feet from Evan and lnocking me to the ground. Max's face pales as he sees my necklace glowing for the first time. Then he sees Evan's ring glowing. "I-I'm sorry. I don't know what happened to me." Max said. I looked into his mind. He had been possessed by a lesser demon. As if seeing Evan for the first time, Max lets out a cry and rushes over, where Evan is trying to make his way to me.

I look down. Im covered in blood and I think my arm is broken. Then I look at my stomach. A 4 inch shiver of glass is embedded into my stomach. I'm cold, o cant feel my body. I cry out as my upper body falls back, too week to support it. My stomach screams in pain and all I do is reach for Evan. But I can't see him. I cant see anymore. I can feel him pick up my head and place it in his lap. I can hear him scream to call an ambulance, bear him scream my name. I reach out and feel for his face. "E-Evan. I l-love y-you." I stutter. My body is numb. My breathing too hard of a task. I'm dying. I'm...... Dy--.

Evan:

I struggle to get up off the ground, to make my way over to Adriana. Max looks as if he had just arrived, as if he doesnt know what just took place. She let's out a cry and falls back. I start to scream when I see the glass in her stomach. She is dying. My soulmate is dying. "Max call the ambulance! Adriana, please stay with me. I love you, I love you you hear me?!" I scream my heart out to the world as I lift her head into my lap. She feels so cold as blood gets onto my hands. I can bear Max call the Ambulance but I have a feeling that they may be too late. She reaches out for me and the realization hit me. She cant see. "Nooooo! Adriana please dont leave me, please!" I scream. Her hand touches my check and she coughs up blood as she struggles to speak. "E-Evan. I l-love y-you." She says. Her hand drops to her side. No, please no! Her breath shudders as her last breath is dawning. The ambulance may be too late I have to try something.

I feel a pull in my body a d I reach into my inner self as I place my hands over the wounded area. Healing. The Trudeau bloodline has always had rhe myth of healing in the midst. I pray to all the gods above as I pull the blade of glass out and place my hand quickly over the thick blood. "Oh Father above. Please help me. I need your help." And as if he had heard me, a woman appears by my side and places her hands upon mine. She smiles encouragingly as white magic courses through my hands, healing her wounds. It takes several minutes until the woman tells me to stop.

"Her body must do the rest. She is in a coma. We will take her to my medic. He is the best in this dimension. You did good, Evan." The woman says as she picks up Adriana with no effort. She starts to walk away towards and open portal. "Wait! I'm not leaving her!" I demand and she smiles. "I didnt expect you to." She says. We both reach the portal and stop. I look at her with mild recognition. "Who are you?" I ask. I need to know, no, want to know. The woman smiles. "I am her mother, your mother-in-law, and Queen of the underworld." She says before stepping into the portal. I follow shortly after her.

Adriana's alive.
