Re: Mazes within a Steel Jungle (Shrike7)
The feeling, the presence in her mind that had called to her, made itself known to her even as it had bound itself as tightly as it could to her very essence, hummed with pleasure within her mind. This was right! This was perfect and true! How things were meant, how everything had always been fated to end... It's pleasure coursing through her, body and soul as she gave her consent to join.
She could feel it, running along her body, it's presence sinking into her mind more fully now that her last defense had faded and she gave in completely. She could feel it as it slowly crept over her face, covering her completely, blinding her in true darkness even as the wraith burrowed further into her mind, before... She felt it shatter. Like a glass wall that had kept them apart by the barest of margins, she felt the being spiral out as her own consciousness joined with it's completely, and she knew what it meant to thrive within shadow, to be a creature of will, she understood it all for the brightest, most fleeting of moments. And then... It was gone. She was alone in the cell, feeling more then seeing the things around her, her face free as she felt the covering across her flesh move at her very will.
River was in control, and as far as she could tell, still herself... But New... Whole... Complete as she never had been as this part of her new identity cemented into place. This was her power, her body, her will and most importantly.. this darkness... This lack of light, these shadows... They were Hers...
