Chiaroscuro

by Vendetta

I'm done being a Nightstalker. I bought into their lies for long enough, the necessary evils that lead into Shadow.
 
I'm done being Charity Cruce as well. I'm done being an orphan. I'm done pretending I'm something else than what I mean to be. When I was a child, a family I never knew was torn from me and I bled out on the concrete of this shade filled city. That girl died on the operating table that day. I'm tired of keeping her alive.
 
I'm becoming something new. I don't know what that is, but I know what it's not. For once I feel my path is fully in the light. I dare not turn away.
