Drabble: Divergence (BtVS, Gen, Willow)
Title: Divergence
Author: seraphcelene
A/N: set during Chosen, mild-spoilers for S8. Edited dialogue from Chosen. 100 words for the Burn(s) prompt.
"You ready to kill me," she asks. "Brace yourself."
Her fingers on the scythe, a knot of hunger swells from the crater of Willow's id. The world bleeds red, then black. Willow sees the forks in the road through blind obsidian eyes. The possibilities wind out and curl back: Buffy, the scythe, a girl, and her vampire twin.
"Come on, Red," Kennedy whispers.
This is about power. It is also about choice.
Willow breathes and pushes past the fist of hunger in her throat. The world burns white. The future is swallowed in a sodium flare, Willow forgets and falls.
