The feeling of desperation was crawling across Luan's skin like invisible claws, scratching and picking away at her fragile state of mind.
She tore her teary eyes away from the trembling Lucy in her arms, and gazed at the bathroom door.
She wasn't as strong as her sister, Luna. Her sister could handle bad things when they suddenly came out of nowhere; she was levelheaded in the face of chaos; she was prone to give off an easy vibe, comforting anyone near here…
Those were just a few of the things that drew Luan to her sister.
An attraction not dissimilar to polar magnets.
She sighed, wiping her tears from her eyes, and looked back down to her quivering sister.
What was Luan capable of?
Here she was, crying like a little girl because Lynn's hand got cut up pretty bad and Luna had to carry her away…
Or was it because Luna shut her out, while she… the responsible sister… took care of things expertly. Away from Luan.
She couldn't help that painful sting that yanked her stomach into pieces.
But she also couldn't help but concede its truth.
Lynn was hurt, and Luan's dearest sister was in there fixing her up brand new. There simply wasn't a better person for the job.
Luan's heart warmed at that thought, finally feeling the strength necessary to rub Lucy's back, to pat her hair comfortingly.
Her angel was taking care of everything, but she knew she'd need help eventually. And Luan couldn't help but beam at the thought of giving her sister the support and comfort she needed…
Her stomach yanked again in an odd, painful direction…
If only I could comfort her with a lover's embrace.
Luan sighed, hugging Lucy closer to her breast and feeling the eight-year-old begin to breathe more calmly. "It will be ok, Luce… Luna will take care of everything."
Lucy sniffled, wiping her eyes clear of tears with her striped sleeve. "Y-y-yeah…"
Luan rubbed soothing circles into her back, lifting her head up to press a kiss against a pale cheek. "We can trust Luna. So, don't you worry."
Lucy shivered. "I know… b-but Lynn looked s-so scared."
Luan cooed to her, wiping away a fresh tear from her cheek. "Yes, and she'll need you to be strong for her… j-just like I need to be strong for Luna." She hugged her sister before helping her up to her feet. "They'll need us, you and I."
Lucy smiled faintly when Luan poked her nose playfully. "Yes, you're right."
Before anything else could be said, however, the front door opened…
"Girls~" came the happy voice of their oldest at-home sister, Leni, "I brought home some goodies!"
The two walked over to the top of the stairs and saw Leni walking up the stairs, carrying a few bags (presumably to her bedroom).
"Where's Lynn? I got her a couple surprises…"
There was something about that intonation… that innocent tilt of Leni's head… the way her bangs plunged her eyes in darkness for a split second… that made a random chill race up Luan's back.
Where did that come from, Luan? Geez, get ahold of yourself!
She tried to keep her voice strong like her sister, Luna, would've done. "Luna's with her in the bathroom. She…" Deep breath. "…hurt her hand and got really scared."
Leni smiled coyly, to the astonishment of her sisters. "Little Lynn got scared, eh?" She continued smiling, her eyes staring off to some unknown place as she marched past her sisters and turned toward her room.
Luan saw her pause at the bathroom door and tilt her head to the side before going into her room. The odd girl giggled… the sound causing another chill to run down Luan's back.
What's up with her?
Soon, Lincoln ran up right past them and into his room, already stripping off his clothes for a (presumably) much-desired comic reading session.
Luan sighed. Someone can just tell him later on. There was no need to ruin his-
The bathroom door flung open, banging too loudly against the wall for anyone's liking.
And Luan felt a third chill run down her back when Lynn stumbled out like a drunk, holding a heavily bandaged hand against her chest. She nudged Lucy in the back. "Go help Lynn."
The two departed into their bedroom, leaving Luan alone with a very sullen Luna.
"W-what did Lynn say?"
Luna shut her eyes, taking a breath that racked her body like an earthquake.
Luan felt that familiar anxiety begin to claw at her skin, picking at her insides.
"L-Luna…?"
Luna sighed, turning toward Leni's door and took a step forward, effectively giving her concerned sister a cold shoulder. "N-not now, Luan. I need to talk to Leni."
Those words… "I need Leni"… just being in that specific order, in that same sentence, sent Luan's heart plunging into the depths of the earth. She uttered a teary, "W-w-w-what?" But it went unheard as Luna entered the room and shut the door behind her.
When she heard a faint click of a lock, her mind swam with visions of Luna receiving a lover's embrace from Leni… and it broke her heart into a million tiny pieces; like a drop of ice exploding into innumerable shards.
She fell onto her knees and hands and began to sob, alone and heartbroken in the hallway.
Luna frowned when she finally pulled Lynn's hand away from her chest. It looked pretty bad.
Blood was slowly accumulating in each gash, eventually filling them up enough to spill over the lacerated skin.
She took her sister over to the sink and turned the water on. She put her hand under the lukewarm water and let the blood flow away, red swirls swishing around the basin before being devoured by the drain.
Without turning her eyes away from her duty, she spoke to the trembling girl whose hand she held in a viselike grip. "Are you sure Leni did this?"
Lynn shivered at the strong tone, crashing into her like a hurricane with its force. She waited until Luna looked at her before she nodded her assent.
Luna hummed noncommittedly before bringing the hand up to her eyes.
Three gashes looked superficial, but the one above her middle finger's knuckle looked deeper. What she was seeing looked almost alien, splotchy, slimy… l-like a tendon.
Luna's stern frown deepened in worry, her heart speeding up. She took a deep breath and turned to her sister.
Lynn's spine quaked when she saw the serious demeanor of her sister. "W-what's wrong?"
Luna took a breath. "Can you extend all your fingers fully out?"
Lynn's eyes widened, her face draining of color as her eyes darted to her pale hand. It looked bad to her, b-but… She cried out in pain when she began to push her fingers forward.
It seemed to last for an eternity, but her hand finally managed it… well, almost.
Lynn's heart stopped when she saw her middle finger pushing out limply, unable to reach the same extension as her other digits.
"Relax your hand." The commanding, reassuring voice of her older sister was obeyed without question… something she held onto as her heart plummeted and her mind decayed into anguish.
Luna took another breath and then placed both of her thumbs along the spindly bone of her middle finger, pressing against the sides roughly in the middle of the back of her hand. "Do it again."
Lynn tried. She really tried. But that first inch of movement was torture, scorching a path of fire through the nerves in her arm, shoulder, neck, and brain. She bit her tongue trying to stop herself from screaming.
Luna's eyes worried, but she maintained her calming presence. "Do it, Lynn. Extend them."
The air was torn from Lynn's lungs as she pushed her fingers, her muscles, against the pressure of her sister's thumbs. "Ahhhh!"
Luna's eyes softened when Lynn pushed to the same extent as before. "Relax your hand."
Lynn's hand fell limp in her sister's soft hands, a slight sheen of sweat glistening on her forehead.
Luna rubbed her thumbs along the edges of her hand. "Good job, Lynn, I'm really proud of you."
Lynn smiled for a second, dropping it in time with her panting breaths.
"Now, I know you don't want to… but I need you to make a fist. Can you do that for me?"
Lynn looked at her sister with tortured eyes.
Luna stared back, stoic, unwavering.
"Be strong, Lynn."
The trembling girl nodded and pulled her hand from her sister's grasp. She held the floppy hand in the air, almost crying when she finally noticed how droopy her middle finger looked.
Luna stood beside her, watching her gash with eagle-like eyes.
Lynn held her breath and clenched her good hand into a painful fist. Then, she began…
Luna watched as her fingers twitched, almost snapping against an invisible chain when they began to pull toward her palm. Each whimper, every gasp brought pain to Luna's ears, but it was a necessary evil.
…for an unnecessary punishment.
For a split second her heart filled with untold wrath, but she stuffed it away as quickly as possible.
Lynn made it halfway, her fingertips only a couple inches away from touching her palm when she finally cried out in pain.
That's when Luna saw it… a pale, slimy thing rippling under the force of pressure. And it was nicked. Just barely… but it was!
Luna's heart dropped. No… Lynn…
"Relax your hand."
Lynn let it fall limp to her side, but it didn't stay there long before Luna snatched it back to the sink.
Luna ran on autopilot as she pulled out supplies: thank God our parents think ahead for emergency first aid!
She pulled the cap off a saline bottle and dipped it over her sister's four gashes.
Lynn watched with bated breath as the cool, strange liquid ran over her hand and harmlessly fell into the sink.
The bottle empty, Luna capped it and set it aside. I'm not taking any chances.
Next was an antiseptic ointment… and she squirted a good drop on each cut before putting it aside.
Then, she took out sterile gauze and cut it to fit across the span of her hand in one piece.
Lynn held the gauze in place as Luna took out medical tape and cut off strips. She held her breath as Luna's warm fingers pressed each strip into place, almost searing her frigid hand with heat.
Luna took a deep breath, steeling her nerves, when she brought out a roll of wrapping.
"Lynn… s-sweetie…?"
Lynn's heart dropped again. "Y-yes?"
Luna turned to her sister and began wrapping up her whole hand, from fingertips to wrist.
"P-please tell me if this feels too tight."
Lynn's heart skipped a beat.
"It's f-fine, but w-why are you wrapping it? I-isn't the gauze enough?"
Luna sighed again before pinning the end of the roll with a metal clawed-clamp.
"L-Luna!?"
Luna turned her weary eyes onto her sister's frightened, ghostly face.
"One of your tendons was c-cut, Lynn. We have to keep your hand stabilized until a doctor can… c-can put it back together."
Lynn's mouth fell open, though no air came out of or went into her lifeless lungs.
"We have to go to the hospital, Lynn. Now."
Lynn's mouth snapped shut, a deep breath of air whistling as it was sucked into her choking body. "What!?"
Luna rubbed a hand along her sister's forearm reassuringly, still holding her bandaged hand in her own. "If we don't go now you could lose movement in your finger, Lynn."
Lynn's heart froze yet again as a fleeting image of her being cast off all her sports teams forced itself through her brain.
"It needs to be stitched before it can tear anymore-"
"NO!"
Luna stumbled back. "What do you mean, 'no'?" She gripped her sister's forearms and rose up to her full height. "There's no debate, Lynn." Her eyes softened, going a little watery. "Please. I can't let you lose your finger…"
Lynn felt tears fall down her cheeks as she shook her head no, frantically clutching at her sister's shirt with her only good hand. "No! I d-don't want anyone else getting h-hurt because of me!"
Luna's eyes hardened. "Don't worry about Leni. I'll take care of it."
She pulled away from Lynn, but was surprised when the girl suddenly darted forward and gripped the handle in a sweaty palm. She uttered a pathetic, "Fine," before slamming the door against the wall and stumbling out.
She immediately went to Lucy, accepting her help into their bedroom.
Luna watched her safely enter the room before she stepped out of the bathroom.
"W-what did Lynn say?"
Her hardened eyes met Luan's fearful orbs before they shut and she took a deep breath.
"L-Luna?"
I don't know what is going on with you, Leni, but I'm not going to let you hurt another one of my siblings.
She turned toward Leni's door.
"N-not now, Luan. I need to talk to Leni."
And she opened it without preamble. Seeing her supposedly-ditzy sister twirling merrily about the room, she stole a quick breath and entered.
The door shut behind her with a resounding thunk.
Leni spun over to her dresser, and opened up the bottom drawer. She pushed the clothes aside and put her goodies in. She giggled as she ran a hand down the edge of the rat poison.
"I hope you like gasping for breath as your insides melt into goo, you filthy rat~"
The door shut behind her, startling her.
Leni turned her eyes onto the stern frown of her sister and she felt her heartrate increase. She stood up and looked at the newcomer in shock.
LORI!?
She rubbed at her eyes painfully before taking another look, seeing the shorter stature of an angry Luna.
She released a sigh of relief, putting her hand on her chest, and chuckled into the air.
Luna's brow arched, her voice dripping with venom. "What's so funny, Leni?"
Leni's smile widened as she took a step toward the middle of the room. She opened her arms wide in a playful gesture. "Life's just great, I guess, Luna~"
"Uh huh." Luna stepped farther into the room, immediately taking note of Leni's side-step… so she side-stepped as well… the sisters circling each other with blazing eyes.
Coming to a stop, Luna crossed her arms and stood tall, leaning forward. "Why did you cut Lynn's hand?"
Leni shrugged, her eyes momentarily moving toward the sight of a cute, adorable Lily munching on one of her shoes. I guess there "are" more rats in this house…
For a split second Luna saw her sister's eyes squint before they softened and her mouth grinned… the action made her stomach turn. Something's not right…
Taking bounding steps toward the baby mouse in her bedroom, Leni simply replied, "I caught her trying to steal Lincy's breakfast."
Luna watched her as she dipped down and pulled their baby sister into her arms. "You hurt her hand really bad, Leni... You expect me to believe it was over some stupid food!?"
Leni cuddled her sister to her chest, even as the toddler grabbed a fistful of her dress and began sucking on it. Her eyes flashed dangerously. "What can I say, Luna? I only meant to punish her…"
Luna growled when her sister walked over to an open window, a soft breeze blowing into the stuffy room. "You don't punish anyone by cutting their hand up! She needs to see a doctor, thanks to you!"
Leni grinned when she turned to the window, leaning her chest inch by inch toward that open door… just imagining how many seconds it would take for… let's say a "mouse"… to go splat in the grass. She looked at Lily as the toddler nommed on her dress and she smiled warmly.
Would she splatter against the side of the house?
Leni's spine tingled in excitement. Best keep my fingers crossed...!
Luna glared at the back of her sister's head, staring heatedly as Leni slowly turned her neck so her smiling eyes were facing her head on. She made a fist with her hands, taking another step toward Leni.
Leni giggled. "Oh, Luna, Luna… you really need to learn…" She dipped her arms toward the open pane, her sister tottering in her embrace. "…accidents happen all the time."
Luna took a step back, the breath knocked out of her as she watched with soulless eyes as her baby sister nearly tipped out of Leni's arms… nearly fell out of the window before she was pulled back to Leni's chest at the last second.
"Oopsies! How clumsy of me~" Leni turned to face Luna, rubbing a fingernail along the crease in Lily's neck. She tilted her head at her sister with a beaming smile. "This little mouse nearly went splat on the ground outside…"
Luna's heart froze as Leni stepped beside her and dipped her head until her eyes were covered in darkness.
"Now, that would have been a terrible accident… wouldn't it have been, Luna?"
Lily was cast into Luna's shaking arms and Leni turned away and walked toward her dresser.
Luna choked on dry spit. "W-w-why would y- HOW COULD YOU!?"
Leni turned toward her sister with bored eyes and a deep frown. "If anyone tries to harm my Lincy…"
Luna's heart skipped. Her Lincy? What?
Leni chuckled darkly, turning her back on her sisters. "…next time there won't be any accidents."
Neither sister heard or paid attention to the faint, sudden gasp behind the bedroom door.
Luna's throat bobbed as Lily clutched at her purple shirt and began suckling innocently on the sweaty fabric.
"Now get out."
The closing of the door left Leni in a peaceful silence, which was much appreciated.
She turned her eyes and frowned at the single box of rat poison.
I should have bought more than one. This house is infested with vermin.
Suddenly, she felt fingers slither around her pale neck like a anaconda's grip and she choked.
She stared in horror at the mirror above her vanity as the demonic face of her older sister slowly slid out from behind her head.
"Hello, my sweet, worthless Leni~"
She tried clawing at that phantom grip; instead gasping out as the grip began strangling her throat.
"L-Lori, stop! I-I… I can't breathe!"
Lori cackled into Leni's ear, strengthening her forceful grasp enough to rip out another gasp from her prisoner.
"So, you thought you could replace me just like that?"
She snapped her finger, the sound reverberating through Leni's colorless body.
"You're just as stupid as you are worthless, dear sister…"
She yanked on Leni's silken hair, bending her neck back so her clawed fingers could dig into the vulnerable flesh at her throat.
"You will always belong to me~"
And Leni struggled in vain as her sister forced her to the ground, pushed up her dress, and ravished her body until blood pooled into the carpet beneath her.
In the dark stillness of twilight, she finally fell asleep… her body finally out of tears, her heart unable to ache for one second longer.
