Hughes made the two workers that came for them turn around and walk away confusedly.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqZZQKU1q3
'You're sick.' Christine said. 'Don't you feel anything? All those people.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxarP5JRgVB
​'It's just part of magic.' He replied. 'Magic was never meant to be a gift. Telekinesis, fire. All destructive.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCFnI2ZYyS
'I don't believe that.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYTCHi6Ibg
'It's true. You were given these powers for a purpose, Christine, and you need to realize this.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHw8JowIBN
Ashes were falling around them, a rain of black swans drifting down from the sky.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEYDs0vQh3
'Christine. Listen to me. You're special. You're the most powerful of all of us. And you can still join us. You can be reborn as part of Floor Twelve Minus.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB3c63Q5qj
The woman cried. She had nothing left - her job was gone, she had no family, and the struggle had drained all the life out of her.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefr1ruxisF
With a shaking breath: 'No.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKpxAt5mEz
'This is your purpose, goddamit! Magic isn't a fairytale, Christine, it's a weapon, and we're utilizing it the best we can.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSySaGoIhd
'No, I refuse to believe that.' She groaned as she rose to her feet.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrUmeFucGz
'You're weak.' Hughes spat. 'Weak like your brother.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSKLKBjWeG
Christine slapped him. 'I don't know who you're talking about. But he sounds like a man who does not deserve to be spoken about like that.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqorG6vyQK
She turned to face the rubble.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j1FzTzblQ
'Christine. What are you doing? There's nothing left.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3IWHzgGKy
'I am not going to let all those people die, Hughes.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWnT1lpVvk
'They're already dead!'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f04OjqdqE
Christine stared on at the pile of concrete and glass, a face that aged within just a few days carved into a look of determination. 'That's not going to stop me.'635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJDhNFU1t8
With a strenuous roar, she lifted her hands and the pieces of the WestGo building slowly began rolling to the center of the ruin, crashing against each other as the service workers ran around in alarm.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmDyBBsMeB
'Aaaaaaaaaargh!' The pieces were floating now, dripping dust and stones onto the bodies beneath, until they, too, rose into the sky, like puppets suspended by the strings of heaven.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW06HPaEFI2
But that's not possible, Hughes thought. It's not goddamn possible. She can't be doing this.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNwfDN2jx5
There were groans as pieces of steel bent, a flurry of activity as discarded bolts and supports on the ground spun into the air, shards of glass shooting up like a flock of shimmering doves, tinkling as they gathered into radially cracked panes.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilTtWve6YK
Christine's veins were pulsing, an overflow of energy pouring from the ground through her body, ripples of the Void sending undulations through the air.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm2I15yWYE
'YAAAAAAAAAAIEEEEEEEEEEEE - ' Christine could feel it draining her, sapping the very life out of her body, killing her -635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY00eQyNfJ
A deafening roar was ascending in volume as the bodies and pieces of WestGo clouded out the sun, sending the city into shadow.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMS2jzI1IB
Slowly, heavily, they began spinning in the air, some rising, some falling, all slowly being drawn into the center like a giant suspended centrifuge, crashes of smoke and dust, screams of exclamation from the people watching below as it began taking on a shape, a triangular prism reaching up into the sky -635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZC5nGtQbc
And it all came cascading down, a shattering boom as the reformed skyscraper dropped to the ground.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQRoi0as3V
Cries of anguished relief as a flood of people came running out of the building - alive.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl0Nr4wdOb
Hughes looked on in amazement - Christine had revived them all. Not just one human, but thousands of actual people. Back on earth to feel the warmth of a loved one's embrace, back on earth to cry and smile -635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJV5U8CeTD
He didn't even try to fight it. He just turned back to the empty space in front of him, and in a daze, walked over to the object on the ground.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvadqO2Xufd
It was her dress, limp, and lying empty on the ashen floor.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgzWwYEKXp
With her final spell, the Void had taken Christine.635Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBXrIUp8JD
Bound by the lives she saved.8964 copyright protection631ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDa2zwjc2Q 維尼
