In her mindscape, Vy replayed the scene of them in the throne room. This time, instead of leading with her dagger in her hand, she chose not to draw her weapon. Vy rushed forward and at the moment Viviana brought Elette in as a human shield, she grabbed hold of the girl into her arms.
"I got you, Elette," Vy said with confidence as she then pushed herself away from the commotion.
But when she put the girl down, she was already dead, with a knife in her back. Elette's eyes started to pour out tears of blood.
"Why Vy, why?" the girl mouthed the words as she reached for Vy.
Vy, in shock, stepped back from the scene as the blood pooled around Elette's body. Like a puppet, Elette's body sat up, eyes completely red.
"Why did you kill me?" she screamed as she reached for Vy.
"No… no that's not what I meant to do… I," before Vy could even defend herself, shards of crystallized blood shot through the air from Elette's hands.
Honestly to me, Aether could have a whole novel written about his adventures as a Familiar to other beings. XD
