Silent Screaming

Khaat fell limp, forced to stop her attack on Felix. The pain was too intense. Part of her could halfways believe what he was telling her about her father, but it didn't make much difference. Her mind felt like it was slipping away to somewhere where she could never reach it again in the same way as before.

She was sure she was smelling that scent again--the cologne with turkish spices. And it swept her mind away, out of this room, away from the pain. The last connection with her body she felt was as if she left it. She felt it fall completely limp and motionless on the tile floor. Somewhere, she saw herself standing w/ Remus in a woods. It looked familiar. There were no words. They'd never needed words. Words were useless anyway. Words were weapons. She was only safe in the silence. Here. With Remus.

She saw him smile. That same funny smile with the slight twist to it, his chestnut hair falling into his eyes as it always did. He was so loving, so reassuring, so...wait. Where was her father? She started to look around her but she saw no one. No one at all except herself and Remus.

Wait...where the deuce was she? How did she get here? Where was Felix and that wicked, hideous dog, anyway? What about her mother, Abbey, Brian? Why was there no sound? None at all. She looked back at Remus. He made a simple gesture, as if he were locking his lips with an invisible key. She understood. No words. Never again. No sound. It was locked. For good.

Then it all faded to darkness.

Pathetic, that's what this woman was now. All she could do was blackout, no fight left, and Felix felt his anger slip away with her consciousness. She lay on the floor, almost dead looking, but he could see her chest moving. She was alive, if barely. She was obviously somewhere else and wouldn't be coming back any time soon. Felix moved to his dog, and gently lifted it's paw, despite it's growls. "Come." He growled. He passed Khaat without a look, half not caring about her anymore. He had gotten a lot of his anger out with the torture he had given her, and he felt content to let her do whatever the hell she wanted to. He didn't care.

Hyde limped out after him, and the door shut with a resounding thud. It was like it was a final statement to her. Locking her voice away, locking her away in her tomb. A tomb with only her and her thoughts in it. He had left her bruised and mangled on the floor, and he was content to let her be killed by someone else now. He didn't have the authority to do that yet, and he didn't think he ever would. No, he was tired of not only this place, but everyone in general, and he knew he had to get away, and soon. So after going to his room to fix up Hyde, he let his thoughts of Khaat Lupin fall out of his memory. If he thought about them, he'd feel remorse, and that's not how Felix worked. He growled and fell asleep, feeling slightly happy for the first time in years.

OOC: Oooh. Nice job . K.
