Psycho's Lullaby

Prologue

Lilith went running down the corridor. Tightening her grip on the mask as she heard her father's yells booming through the walls. She couldn't make out the words, blocking out his voice, focusing only on her goal of getting out.

Lilith swung open the front door, darting down the road as her father's voice lessened.

As one voice quiets the other in her head grew. "You stole her Commune, why?"

The all too familiar voice echoing through Lilith's head in it's raspy feminine tone. Emanating from deep inside. Questioning Lilith's actions and goals.

Lilith shook her head and kept running down the road. She could see the city now, she had a plan, it was just a matter of executing said plan. Get to the city, get on a boat, and get as far away as possible. As far away from Hell as possible. Lilith got lost in her thoughts as she kept running. Being only interrupted by the humming of a car that was far from slowly coming closer. Lilith turned around to see the familiar car gaining on her.

Tears rushed down her face as the voice from inside screeched from inside. With a defensive hiss from the voice, her body was engulfed in black. All that could be seen by Lilith was black, and without warning, everything, was black.

When she came to she was on a boat, hidden in a small pocket made by some crates. In her lap, a mask, her sister's Commune. Lilith picked it up, staring at the intricate designs on the front, then into the eye sockets. The voice inside soon returned to her...

"You stole her commune Lilith, she'll be shunned, all for your greed of power? You managed to keep a secret such as this even from I, even now you hide your greed. I'm impressed to say the least."

"This isn't for any kind of power. This is so Clara doesn't have to suffer the pain of having a Commune. No one should have to suffer this way."

Lilith flipped the mask around and closed the distance between it and her face. As she moved it closer, it morphed to fit her delicate face, followed by engulfing her body in white. Retracting into her body soon after.

A light, gentle and soft voice escaped from inside of her, similar to a baby's first words. "You did all of this, just to help your sister?... That's... Kind?"
