  1. "Why should I tell you that?"
  2. "I believe I did tell you. Certain business in the physical world, and perhaps a bit of fun."
  3. Not-Erin facepalmed. "I already told you that they can't."
  4. "Seems your love hear is holding up rather better than expected. I guess we may be here for a bit longer yet."
  5. Not-Erin frowned slightly. "How odd."
  6. "Erin can't hear you. They're dead. I just need the last of their essence to fade... Which should be in just a few seconds."
  7. "Their soul was wide open for quite a while. Then you sealed it up nice and tight for my use. Thanks for that, by the way."
  8. They leaned back and cackled. "A minute, roughly, until Erin disappears."
  9. "That sounds rather complicated and unnecessary. And watching you suffer is so much more fun." Not-Erin leaned toward him and puckered their lips. "Want a kiss goodbye? You've got about a minute."
  10. "Just certain things I'd like to attend to in the physical world. And a little bit of fun." They winked.
  11. "I don't see why I should take that risk. There's more than enough here, in this gorgeous body and soul you have come to adore."
  12. "Your magic has very limited application."
  13. "What could you possibly offer me?"
  14. Nothing happened. "Whatever would that accomplish? Erin would still be gone." The cold, dead grin widened. "Tick, tock."
  15. They seemed unperturbed by the outburst. "Erin is going away. Usually takes them six or so minutes, like I said. So that leaves about three or four..."
  16. "Someone who would very much like to take advantage of the wealth of energy stored in this soul. I just need Erin gone first. That's what the dying earlier was for."
  17. "Let's see..." Erin seemed to ponder. "I'd say a couple more minutes at this point. Most don't hold on for more than six." They grinned unnaturally. "Poor Michael. Losing love as quick as he found it."
  18. Erin healed, a bit too slowly for comfort but completely. They sat up and smiled. Their eyes were cold. "Thanks for the help."
  19. Then, somehow, they were alive. It shouldn't have been possible, considering the state of their body, but they began to breath agonizing, ragged breaths.
  20. It was fairly obvious that they were dead.
  21. "Ok, I-" Erin cried out, and their body appeared a few yards above the ground, and slammed downwards with all the force of the fall. There was a sickening crunch, and blood splattered as Mike saw what had happened to him happen to them. Except they didn't heal.
  22. "Not very... but I'm worried I'll retain my momentum." The voice wavered.
  23. "I... can't seem to move in this space for some reason. So when I come back to where you are... I might just keep falling."
