Blackout. She watched as though from above. The light of her body, system by system, shut down. First her legs. Then her arms. Finally, a brain eclipsed. Drained, overwhelmed and incapacitated, she lay there, blank. Quinn bearing down heavily on top of her. Tears silently streamed, her head turned away. With all her might she pushed once more and looked up at him, leering over her. Her eyes widened, fear taking complete control. A surge of light ran from her head down her body to her hands and legs. One last push! But her body of light slammed back to the floor.
Eight years later, Manhattan slept in near darkness. Across the water, Elena stared out from the darkness of her window at the island city relight. The memory had seared itself upon her brain. She could still smell his breath, still feel the scrape of his stubble against her skin. She felt it deep in the pit of her stomach. She tried to snap herself out of it, but the memories took hold, his eyes glaring over her, robbing her of the self she had worked so hard to achieve.
