#loosing control

Ciel stared in horror at the huge, shattered bell in pieces on the ground. Anduin had been underneath the bell before it shattered. She couldn't see him anymore.

She hadn't been able to do anything. Nobody even knew she was there. Ciel hated being dead.

"Sweetie, we should go." Kelyth said behind her.

The young ghost clenched her fists and set her jaw. "No."

Kelyth put a hand on her shoulder. "It won't do either of us any good to stay here. There's nothing we can do, and you're only going to get hurt more if you keep watching."

The Kyrian tried so hard to keep her daughter safe while her body healed, but Ciel's insistence on following Anduin everywhere often caused emotional distress. Kelyth didn't think of herself as very smart, but she knew that wasn't always a good idea.

Ciel looked at Cherwine. "You set up a soul-bond between Cherwine and I, right? We're connected now?"

Kelyth nodded. "Yes, that's how you're healing. Why?"

Ciel stomped over to Cherwine, and stared up at her. The night elf didn't respond. But then again, she didn't respond to the living either, in her current state.

Ciel grabbed Cherwine's hands and yanked herself into Cherwine's body.

"Ciel no, wait!" Kelyth wasn't fast enough to stop Ciel from possessing her soul-bond's body.

Cherwine's face moved for the first time in years. It was contorted with rage as she screamed, "You killed him! You killed Andy!!!"

Everyone else whipped around to stare at her. Cherwine/Ciel shrieked and flung fire at the Mogu that had shattered the bell.

"What in the world is that?!?!?" One person yelled.

"It's not Cherwine!" Varian yelled back.

Ciel kept throwing fire all over the place, not aiming at all as she screamed.

"YOU KILLED ANDY! I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!!"

Black tendrils with pale glowing spots started climbing up her long legs. Ciel didn't notice, so absorbed in her rage.

The Sha climbed all the way up her, engulfing Cherwine's body, making her spout huge claws and a giant monstrous mask covering her head.

"YOU WILL ALL DIE IN FLAMES!!!" She roared in an unnatural, three-tone voice. Varian could hear Cherwine's voice, despite not hearing it for years. The Sha voice was obvious enough. And then he finally recognized the voice that had been coming out of Cherwine this whole time.

The voice of a young girl that had died years ago. The voice of Ciel, Anduin's childhood best friend.

"Contain the Sha! Stop it!" A Pandaren voice called.

Several adventurers lept into action, restraining the night elf with human eyes. A Shado-pan Pandaren stepped forward, and with a few swift movements, drove the Sha out.

The night elf woman was kneeling in the circle, bound and sobbing.

"They killed him... they killed Anduin...."

Varian stepped forward. "Ciel?" He asked cautiously.

She raised her head, green human eyes staring at him rather than golden elven ones. "They killed him. I had to do something."

Varian kneeled down in front of the circle. "He's not dead, Ciel. He's going to be okay." He kept an eye at the healers that had dragged Anduin out from under the bell, and were working quickly to make sure he did live.

Ciel sniffed. Cherwine's hands were bound, she couldn't wipe at her borrowed face. "He is?"

Varian nodded.

"I'm sorry." Ciel said quietly.

She could see out of the corner of her eye, Kelyth walking towards her and holding out a hand. Ciel reached back with her own, ghostly hand and left Cherwine's body.

She stood in front of her mother, head down and hands together in shame.

"Do you see now why I wanted us to leave?" Kelyth asked. Ciel nodded in return.
