MABEL
Mabel wanted more.
More than just the couple disappearing.
More than just the entanglements of justice, the barest notions of satisfaction.
Because she wasn’t content, not by a longshot. She yearned for them to suffer, to feel the onslaught of pain and torment, the rush of depravity sinking into their bones, watching their fellows die because no one was going to save them. No one was going to cherish them. No one gave a single shit about them, no matter how many offerings they left behind, no matter how many gifts, prayers, bows, and proceedings. It was all built upon lies, lies, lies.
Her anger had gotten the best of her. She could feel it pulsing in her chest, but she didn’t care. “Let’s do it again.” Her voice had taken on an eerie, enigmatic tone, wolves with teeth and knives and rancor, waiting until others were gone. She shoved the remnants aside with her feet, then grabbed a few more, intending to hurtle them towards Evelyn again. “Drop them on their heads.”

I bare my teeth
and stretch my claws out
and stretch my claws out
