Do What's Right

Dedicated to Steph. This character was loosely based on you!

Quickly, she moves in front of him. "Take my life instead. If anyone should die let it be me," she says.
"Are you nuts!"
"No, I give you my life and in return I will take yours."
"What are you? A witch?," he asks.

"I am nothing and everything.Make your decision quickly! Take my life or none at all!"
"Is this man worth dying for?," he asks.
"All life is worth dying for. Quickly make a decision," she replys.

He finds himself enchanted by the beauty of her voice. He thinks he's bewitched by her face. He watches her every move, amazed by her grace. He wishes he could have her, to kiss her, and smell her sweet breath. But at the same time, he realizes he mustn't. He lays down his gun and says, "I will not take a life at all."

"Will you do what's right?"
"Yes, I will turn myself in. But before I do, tell me, please, who you are."
"I will tell you once more. I am nothing and everything," she whispers in his ear.
"I don't understand."
"And you never will. Now go!" She shoves him towards the door. "Do what's right."

He takes a step forward abd looks back. He sees his small woman child goddess. Her back is turned to him. He wonders how he didn't see her. Then it hits him. His little woman child goddess hides in plain view. With a faint smile, he turns and walks out the door. It's time to do what's right.

THE END
