Erica thought about honoring the broken woman's request before a far more cruel idea began to take shape. She looked at the teary-eyed blonde in her grasp and gave her a condescending smirk. "No."
Alice looked surprised. Even Debbie was thrown for a loop.
"What do you mean no?!" The heartbroken lawyer asked. "Kill me!"
Erica continued to grin as she gently lowered the woman to the ground. "I don't think so."
Now Debbie was really confused. "What are you doing? Weren't you going to crush her or something?"
"I thought about it." Erica confessed as she stared into the small woman's eyes. "But I think this is better. Here that little one, you get live. You get live with the pain of knowing that your own father was right in front of you and you couldn't do a thing to help him. You get to live the rest of your life knowing you let him die."
Alice said nothing as she fell to her knees.
Debbie watched this interaction with an odd throbbing in her chest. This was especially cruel. Sure she was ready to embrace being a destructive force of nature but....
"No! No!" She stopped herself. "They're not people to you anymore, remember? Their just fuel to keep you going."
Even as she said however, she wasn't fully convinced. She was still new to all this and her training as a nurse all but demanded that she see people as people. It wasn't going to happen overnight but overtime she would learn to overcome her former line of thinking.
"Come on, Debbie. Let's level the rest of this neighborhood and head off to where it is you wanted to go." Erica called out to her.
"Yeah." She whispered. "Right."
The dark-haired woman smirked. "And try not to crush Alice here. It's very rare I show mercy to the tiny ones."
Debbie nodded and sent one last look toward the lawyer before following her partners lead. They would raze this whole neighborhood and then set their sights on a brand new target. After that, she'd get back to finding her family. If she found them along the way however... that'd be great.
Alice meanwhile was focused on nothing in particular as the giants raised hell. The cries didn't faze her, nor the screams, or the sounds of splintered wood and shattered metal. All she could think about was her father and Erica's cruel words. She was right there and she couldn't do anything. She was small and helpless and watched him die.
She was broken...
She was lost...
She'd entered the void...
She looked to the night sky as chaos reigned around her. "I'm in hell."
Alice looked surprised. Even Debbie was thrown for a loop.
