Think about something you once wanted so badly but never acquired. Write about how you think your life would've been different if you had received what your heart desired.
Huh. Tough one.
I’ve never really wanted anythin’ really. I’ve always been one for living from day to day. I’ve never wished for anythin’ because I never expected to get it.
I know what I didn’t want. I didn’t want to lose my brother to a lurk at fourteen. I didn’t want to live for four years thinking him dead and then find out he’s undead, turned into a vampire. I didn’t want that. Anything but that.
If Harth hadn’t died, if I had been able to save him… everything would be different. Two halves of the same person, he always said. I was never sure if I believed that, but two sides of the same Slayer, sure.
I’d be a better Slayer with Harth by my side. With his dreams, his knowledge of Slayers, I think we’d be a rutting kickass team.
But, no point in dwellin’, is there? He’s not alive. He’s dead and some beast is walkin’ around wearing his body like a suit. And I’m gonna hafta kill him again.
No point dwellin’ on what might have been
