   Summary

   kali takes one glance back – to the way they came, where they were suppose to retreat to when the mission was done. then, she glances forward – to the swirling storm of blood red and endless darkness that hissed at her to follow, an enemy so large and endless it could swallow them in a gulp.

   and jane, laying underneath her feet.

   another breath. a curled fist.

   'I’m going to end it.'

   aka what /should/ happen in the final to my two favourite, beloved girls instead of this doomed suicide pact.
