The arms had pulled her in, but her body was stiff. Her eyes were staring over his shoulder at Markus's body that was laying in the pool of blood. Her tears didn't stop, she didn't know if it was from happiness or just...
She wasn't feeling anything, she couldn't explain it she felt empty. The arms pushed her back a little and a hand tugged her hair behind her ear, which was sticky with blood. "Christine are you okay?"
She blinked her eyes slowly trying to focus on the face before her. Who was talking? Why cant she-
"Christine?"
His face came into focus and she saw that he had a worried look on his face. "I-"
He stood up, bringing her up with him, "You are shaking... Are you sure that you are alright?"
She didn't know how to answer him, her mind wasn't working- it was completely blank.
