Mackenzie is dead. She was sent to the Fields of Asphodel back in the 1970’s after barely skipping the Fields of Punishment. She was suppose to be watching the blank faces of souls scatter by like she did every day, but instead she was listening to the heartbeat of a living person. A living person.
She remembers her life before, she doesn’t know how, but she wishes she didn’t. She wishes she was just another confused soul moping around. Maybe if she was, she wouldn’t have taken the boys hand. Maybe if she didn’t remember, she wouldn’t have caused the pain that came with being alive again. Maybe if she didn’t, she wouldn’t have fallen love with the son of Hades. Maybe if she didn’t, she wouldn’t be sitting alone in the forest with blood covering her hands. But she does remember.
And it’s all her fault.
