She is hidden in the corner, hair covering her face, eyes puffy and red, lips quivering.

"Woof, Woof," you bark in her face but she doesn't shield away. Instead she screams, her voice anguished, her tears streaking her cheeks, hair flying all around her and suddenly, she reminds you too much of Bella and you retreat, frightened. But then she pulls you forward and screams again, "Kill me! Eat me! I can't live anymore... I don't want to live anymore! Please kill me... Let me go back to him!" she practically begs you.

You try to comfort her, in your animal ways, coming closer and nuzzling her. She notices the change in you - in spite of her tears and blood flowing - and asks you softly, "Who are you? Are you - are you him? Have you come back Cedric?" and suddenly, she's thrown her arms around you, and the tears are flowing faster than ever and you realize, not for the first time, that this girl is as mad as you are.

And mad people belong together don't they?
