A pair of broken tears fell onto the carpet, a sob heaving into the stale air. Two hands scratched at the floor in vain for comfort. Two wobbly knees fell…
…and Luan's crying face crashed into the ground, her ponytail splattering around her. She fisted the matted carpet fibers in her trembling fingers and let her soul pour out.
Why am I not good enough for you?
Her teary head pulled up, her eyes, puffy and pink, staring at Leni's door in not only disbelief and despair… but also betrayal.
Am I really such an awful sister that you have to run to the arms of another?
A fist pounded the ground harshly.
Her eyebrows furrowed angrily as she gnashed her teeth.
You won't throw me away just like that, Luna!
Luan's eyes opened from yet another nightmarish daydream, and she turned onto her side to huddle in on herself under the too-cold blankets.
Her eyes fell upon Lily's crib… yet something else plaguing her mind since earlier that day.
Why?
Such a simple question. Only one word.
Why did Luna storm into Leni's room?
Why did Leni cut Lynn's hand?
Why was Lily involved in that?
Just… why?
She closed her eyes and felt a tremor run up her spine as she remembered that heart-stopping moment when Leni threatened my Luna.
"If anyone tries to harm my Lincy… next time there won't be any accidents."
Luan couldn't help her shocked gasp. She could put two and two together. For some reason, Leni hurt Lynn… she did something to Lily… and Luna might be next!
Tears began falling onto her tear-stained pillow.
It didn't even matter that Lincoln and Lily were in danger… it didn't matter that Lynn was at the hospital with Luna and Lucy (and mom, probably by then), having an operation on her hand…
And it definitely didn't matter that she was de facto left to "protect" all of her younger siblings from an older sister for unknown reasons…
She tightened the blanket around her head as she watched Lily sleeping soundly just across the room.
Luna, you asked the wrong sister…
Would she let Leni or anyone hurt Lily?
No.
But would she actively work to stop Leni from whatever it is she's doing?
She could only shrug.
It was a fine line between sympathy and empathy, understanding and doing…
But not with Luna…
No, that wasn't an option. Or rather, that was the whole problem. Her heart was so full of Luna there wasn't enough room for anyone else.
Her eyes hardened as she slowly put her feet onto the bare carpet floor, her toes getting tickled by the matted fibers.
She turned toward her closed bedroom door…
…and left Lily behind. Defenseless.
She wiped her tears away with a pajama sleeve as her other hand gripped the handle.
All had been forgotten save for one thing: Luna, Luna, Luna…
In her own little world, her own bubble of safety, where it was just her and her sweet, sweet sister. Their love for each other could thrive like the wildflowers in an uncut field. Their lives could go on forever in eternal happiness and comfort.
I won't let Leni take that away from me.
In this world, no one else had ever existed. There was no injured Lynn. No helpless Lily. No annoying brother. No meddlesome sisters.
There was only Luna. Then, now, and forever more. Leni had no place in the equation.
She gritted her teeth as she stepped into the dark hallway. Her eyes immediately targeted Leni's door as she walked toward it.
I'll do anything to keep you away from my Luna!
In two shorts strides, she stood before it. The doorway to her future: whether it'd bring destruction or infinite bliss. She didn't care. If I don't do anything, I'll lose Luna forever… and that's simply not an option.
She clenched her hand to dissipate the jitters and slowly turned the handle. The tumblers rattled loudly through the still air.
She pushed the door open, a rusty hinge creaking eerily, causing a shiver to run up her spine. Her eyes turned to see a heap of blankets on Leni's bed…
But no Leni.
She took another step inside… waiting… expecting something to jump out… for Leni to reach out of the darkness and pull her in…
Another step. Nothing…
She walked slowly over to the vanity and paused at an odd sight. Her head tilted as she beheld a bottle of nail polish remover tipped into a rag, slowly pooling into the fabric, dripping onto the wooden desk.
Luan's eyes followed the liquid march as they settled into eight deep grooves in the wood.
What in the world did that!?
Then, she noticed a funny, sweet smell, and her eyes turned to see an opened container of bleach.
Is this- What is this? Is this why Leni hurt Lynn?
She scratched one palm with its sister's fingers as she puzzled it out.
Her confusion and thoughts were so loud she didn't hear it until it was too late…
Is that breathy humming?
"Oh, little mouse… you thought you could kill me in my sleep and take my Lincy all for yourself, didn't you~?"
Her blood chilled as she turned around. She nearly screamed when she realized Leni was close enough to touch their noses together.
"W-w-what are you talking about, Leni!?" She waved one arm behind her. "What is this stuff!?"
Leni smiled cutely, her eyes squinting in delight. She reached out a hand to pat her sister's trembling cheek dotingly. "Why do you play dumb just like Lynn? All you rats do is lie and steal…"
Luan choked on her dry spit. "Wha-"
Leni interrupted with a giggle. "You're not a very good rat, Luan…" She hummed as she stepped around her and picked up the rag… "Lynn was sneaky." She dipped the soaking rag into the bleach… "Lily was a cruel, heartless beast." She lifted the rag up and her eyes glinted in approval at the faint odor wafting toward her nose. "And Luna acts all righteous…"
She turned toward her sister with a cruel smile. "But all of you are just the same…"
Luan backed away as Leni took a step, the rag poised in front of her.
"All you rats want is my perfect, pure, innocent brother!"
Luan slumped against the wall and gasped a ragged breath of sweet air when Leni forced the cloth against her nose…
Her cries were muffled by the sound of Leni's laughter.
She tried to fight back. She dug her nails harshly into Leni's arms; she could feel the blood slicking her fingers.
Her knees grew wobbly…
Her breathing slowed, deepened…
Her eyes closed unwillingly…
Her mind fluttered away to the melodic sound of Leni's breathless voice…
"But he is mine… and I will do anything to ensure that."
Laughter filled the dark void as one sister stood over another, her bloodied arms raised to the ceiling in triumph.
"YOU HEAR THAT, RATS!? LINCY'S ALL MINE!"
Lucy sat on a chair beside her sister, Luna. Her knees were huddled to her chest, her small frame almost being engulfed by the generic plastic-metal waiting room seat. Though no one could see beneath her dyed bangs, her eyes were red from too many tears.
Luna's fingers kept tapping against her skirted leg; a nervous method of coping, Lucy knew… sort of like Lynn's incessant need to bounce a tennis ball against the wall.
She leaned into her older sister as she felt fresh tears begin to form in her tired eyes.
"Is Lynn going to be o-ok?"
Luna turned to her sister, her neck cracking from stiffness and fatigue. She frowned when she saw the new tears, but said nothing about them as she cradled her sister to her chest.
"She's going to pull through. There's no girl tougher than our sister."
Lucy sniffed, placing her small hand on her sister's much bigger leg, fingering the plaid material of her skirt.
"I don't understand what happened, Luna… why was she crying?"
Lucy let out a few more tears as she hid her face in her sister's loose shirt.
"She never cries!"
Luna rubbed circles in her back, and laid her chin on Lucy's head. She hummed, letting the soothing rhythm mellow out her sister's worries.
"It'll be ok, Lucy."
Her mind suddenly turned to an image of a smiling Leni and a tottering Lily nearly spilling out of her arms, and her heart clenched painfully… her stomach fluttered woozily.
"Everything will be ok."
Leni's laughter filled her mind as she closed her eyes and continued rubbing her sister's shaking back.
I hope Luan's ok…
She felt a tear of her own fall as she thought of her sister holding Lily, hiding in the closet, squirming like trapped mice as Leni slashed away at the bedsheets…
She clutched her sister tighter.
Please… please be ok til I get back!
Darkness. Laughter. Warmth.
These were the things slowly rolling into Luan's brain as she came to from her heavy slumber.
Her eyes blinked open slowly, dumbly, barely recognizing the face of Leni resting above her.
The soft sound of Leni's giggling was soothing to her aching head.
Oh gosh, she felt so tired. So weak. She tried to lift and arm and it wouldn't budge.
Her eyes turned to the side lazily and barely comprehended the sight of a velvet cuff tying her wrist to a bedpost. Luan smiled crookedly.
This must be one of "those" dreams… Leni's gonna pull out a riding crop and Luna's gonna-
That's when her eyes suddenly shot open in remembrance.
She stared at her smiling sister in shock, her breath quickening. "What did you do to me!?"
Leni chuckled happily as she stood from the bed and pranced over to her vanity. "Nothing you didn't deserve, little sister…"
Luan's eyes bugged out when she saw a knife glint in the soft moonlight. "Wait! What are you doing!?"
Leni turned around slowly, revealing a wide smirk and darkened eyes, her bangs casting a shadow across her face. The knife was lifted into the air, its silvery surface sparkling in the light. "I'm going to teach you a lesson."
Luan's throat bobbed as her sister straddled her hips on the bedsheets. Her face paled when Leni's cold fingers tugged her shirt up… slowly, tenderly, lovingly…
Luan sobbed tearfully when she felt the frozen sting of metal rest across the defenseless place of her sensitive stomach.
"P-p-please, stop! I don't w-want Lincoln!"
Leni's eyes flashed dangerously.
"All rats ever do is lie… what makes you think I'll believe you?"
The tip of the blade grazed against her belly button, almost but not quite cutting her tender flesh.
A heavy sob was torn from Luan's throat as she closed her eyes tightly, unwilling to see what her sister would do to her.
"B-because I… I l-love…"
Leni's brow raised and she guided the blade higher up, dragging it across each rib.
Luan shivered as she felt her shirt get bunched up at her neck… and her bra was pushed up to match. Her face burnt in humiliation and shame… at her nudity or coming confession, she didn't know nor cared.
"Whom do you love?"
Leni bared her teeth as she pressed the tip above Luan's heart, drawing one bead of pure red blood to slither down her sister's flawless valley betwixt her breasts.
Luan cried, trembling in pain as she felt that blade pierce through another layer of skin…
"I love… I-I… l-l-lov-"
Leni dragged the blade down suddenly, smiling at the sight of a paper thin tear in her sister's precious body.
Luan's scream was like a choir of angels to her ears.
"LUNA!"
Leni pulled the blade away, and admired the deep red fluid dripping from it… and landing on Luan's quivering stomach.
"Really? Now, isn't that typical."
She turned her eyes back on her sister, seeing how blood gradually oozed from the gash along her center.
She laid the blade upon Luan's tender neck and she placed her lips on her sister's ear.
Luan shivered at the hot breath rolling across her, the painful sting of a cut just deep enough to make her bleed, the harsh smell of her own blood drying on her naked body.
"I should just kill you now…"
Leni drew a beautiful pink line of blood along the crease of her sister's throat.
Luan gasped, struggling for breath, feeling constricted.
"You can do anything to me! Just, please, don't hurt Luna! Kill me, kill anyone, just not her!"
Leni smiled softly as she used the flat of the blade to smear her sister's blood across her neck, her breasts.
"Love is beautiful, isn't it?" She made a cut on one breast, her spine tingling when Luan cried out in pain. "It makes a person do crazy things for their lover." She cut the other breast. "But… I don't believe you."
Leni dipped a finger into the oozing blood on Luan's chest a traced out a word on her forehead… RAT
Luan sobbed, her body burning and crying out for relief.
"P-please! I'll do anything to save my sister!"
Leni chuckled as she sat up on her knees and admired her writhing sister beneath her.
"You'll do anything?"
So beautiful, how the blood ran down her breasts, pooling in the sheets beneath her. How her neck was caked in dried blood. How RAT was a deep maroon…
Leni looked oddly at the blade in her hand before turning back to her sister's branding mark.
Maybe I should mark her in a more… permanent way?
Luan sobbed pitifully, her eyes barely opening to stare her sister in the eyes.
"A-anything!"
Leni poised the blade at Luan's heart and leaned down, eye to eye, and watched closely as she breathed out her question.
"Would you kill Lynn to save your lover?"
A strange glint flashed across Luan's eyes, but she answered instantly in a breathless whisper.
"Yes."
Leni smiled genuinely and laid the knife down in the red sheets. She flung her arms around Luan's quivering, pale body and hugged her tightly.
"Being in love is the most wonderful thing in the world, isn't it?"
Luan stared blankly at the ceiling as tears ran down her cheeks and into Leni's hair. The pain she felt in her heart suddenly made her forget about the cuts, the blood, and the torture. It pained her not because she agreed to murder her sister, but because… deep down inside… she knew she would have done so anyway without Leni's guidance.
After all… Luna was hers, and hers alone… and no rat was going to take Luna away from her!
