One on one based on this novel I'm currently working on (CLOSED)

Station**

"Don't use those idiotic pet names." Jade grumbled. She allowed herself to fall into a deep sleep.

Blood flowed down Jade's arm. She was standing in the middle of a battlefield, covered in dirt and grime and sweat and blood. The distant sound of a child screaming echoed in her ears. Now she was in a dark cell, gently rocking a baby back and forth. The echoes of screaming ricocheted of the walls. Jade sobbed, the pain was too much. Then, she found herself falling, falling into darkness. She wasn't holding the child anymore. Jade screamed.

A bright light was being shined into her face. The events of the last few months were coming back to her. She had lost. Solace was taking her to some moon. Damn.

“You okay there sweet heart” she asked, extra emphasis on the sweetheart. You look a little pale. She climbed out of the car and grabbed her bags and walked towards the station where they’d be sent to a moon as Jade’s punishment.

Jade muttered a few curses and followed Solace into the station.

Solace gave her bags to the ship attendent so they could put her things on the ship and then waited for Jade so they could walk together as much. As she didn’t want to she knew she had to, as per the councils orders.

Jade walked next to Solace grudgingly. She was still quite shaken from that dream, especially since….. but they were dead now. She didn't have to focus on that anymore. "Alright, princess. Let's just go to your bloody moon and get this over with." Jade grumbled.

“Relax a little. We’re goung to be there for a while so you’d better get used to me” Solace said walking towards the boarding entrance.

"We're going to be there for the rest of my life, idiot. Or the rest of your life, whoever does first." Jade muttered.

“My point exactly.” She responded, opening the door to enter the ship, letting Jade go first.

"I hate you, you know." she said, stepping into the ship.

“And why’s that?” She said walking on and pulling the door closed behind her.

"You know why."

“No I really don’t Jade. If I knew I wouldn’t have asked. You of all people should know that” Solace said pointedly, taking a seat and motioning for Jade to do the same.

"Oh, maybe because I would have preferred if you had decided to kill me rather than this?" Jade huffed. She sat down next to Solace, her eyes were full of hatred.

“Well I have to make you suffer. My punishment my rules. I’m putting my life at stake because of you. Because we used to be so close. Because I still care” Solace said, the last part through her teeth. “One day you’ll get over it. One day…” she trailed off unsure of how to finish her sentence.

"You idiot. You don't know anything about what I went through. One day, you'll find out that there's much worse than anything you could think of."

“Whatever you say Jade. I would have known if you wouldn’t have pushed me away when we were younger.” Solace said exasperated.

"You'll never understand. Have you ever had a person die in your arms? Did they die screaming? Could you have saved someone's life but didn't? What regrets do you have, might I a great ask?" Jade taunted.

“I…” She shuddered. “I don’t want to talk about it.” Solace said firmly and turned away from Jade.

"At least you never had to lose the one person in the world who mattered most." she said. The screaming resurfaced in the back of her mind.

“How would you know?” She said coldly. “You don’t know hardly anything about what’s happened to me since we stopped being friends. You don’t have any idea who I’ve because and how I’ve been hurt.” Solace stood up and briskly walked to where her bedroom would be until they reached the moon. She quickly shut the door behind her and leaned on the wall. She couldn’t relive those memories. Not now. Maybe not ever.

Jade leaned back in her chair. She allowed herself to drift into slumber, hoping that this would be over soon.

Jade smelled blood and pus and vomit. It was her own. She cradled the child in her arms, trying to soothe it. The child's screams echoed, they lingered in her ears. Jade sang a lullaby, her voice weak. The screams turned into wails, which turned into scared whimpers. Silence. The child was dead, hanging limp in Jade's arms. Jade screamed curses, she sobbed and tore at her own flesh in despair. When would the torture end? But maybe if she felt enough pain, this would have been a bad dream. She would wake up with her baby, safe and sound. But it wasn't a dream. It would never be a dream.

Jade woke up. They had landed. She stood up, still shaking. The dreams were getting more vivid now. The memories she had suppressed were resurfacing.

Solace walked out of her room and towards the door to head outside. She wanted to look around her new home, and get used to it.

(Gtg for the night!)

(Bye!) Jade casually tripped Solace and walked past, smirking.

Solace regained her balance and walked outside.
“Home sweet home” She said.

"Are you trying to get me to kill you?" Jade asked.

“Nope. You could maybe cool it with the threats though. I took pity on you. The least you could do is return the favor and knock it off” Solace responded.

"Never. I already tried to kill you several times and I won't stop trying."

“Can’t you see that the way you treated me when we were younger was worse than killing me? Can’t you see that I still care about you and decided to give you a second chance? I could have made your punishment much worse than this, but I didn’t. I did it for you. Stop being so damn selfish!” She practically screamed at Jade.

"I would rather die than spend the rest of my life with you."
