Oro (chosen name Whisperer) and Kesha
(there is also an npc-style Kuhna but obviously said Kuhna doesn't exist in my pen, he's just here to get killed)
(this takes place before Kesha's time at the Clinic)
The black bleeder snarled, sniffing the ground. At six inches long, Oro was tiny, even for a Bleeder. But he had big dreams, just like his master. Dreams only for after they had vengeance. He hated controlling Kesha against her will, but he had to, for her own good - she needed this, so that she could move on from what that demon had done to her.
She struggled, of course, but not much - she trusted Oro to do what he knew was right. She trusted him completely, and he her. She just couldn't always do what she needed to. She was...weak, that was right. She didn't fight. She didn't snarl. She was sweet and shy, flower-like, in his mind. He sighed.
I'm so sorry, Kesha. I wish from the bottom of my heart - from the bottom of your heart, I suppose, really, I mean it's kind of like a loan, right? - that I didn't have to do this, but you have to move on, and you refuse everything else, you refuse therapy and you refuse moving on. You insist on being unhappy and alone, and that's not good for you, my dear Lady.Kesha mentally agreed.
Whisperer, she added on,
I trust you. I don't want this to be done, but it's not like I have much a choice, now is it? I can't have a man's death on my soul! I can't! Please, Oro, for me, for my own foolishness, for my bleeding heart - don't!My lady, his death won't be on your soul - it'll be on mine. One heart, my lady, two minds. That's where it is, me, and I refuse to allow you to suffer. Ever.And with that, the possessed cat and the black bleeder (who rode upon her back) padded off, the Kuhna's nose to the ground, sniffing. There it was - that scent which inspired deepest hatred and anger in Oro the Whisperer and inspired terror and lust in poor Kesha, poor messed-up, abused, fragile Kesha, poor wilted flower. But, though she didn't know it, she'd not be a wilted flower much longer. Nay, she was, deep in her subconcious, already changing, from a poor, fragile, wilted flower - innocent and unlucky, cute and childish - to the nightmare that some called a broken-winged bird - someone with something essential gone, that made them demonic, angry, that made them lust for vengeance. What she had lost - her innocence, her childish naivity - had been essential to her personality, and without it, she was an empty shell, unable to exist unfilled forever, needing something to let her live, to heal her. To break her.
