"Two days later . . the village was attacked. Everyone was killed by a mixed army of demons"

Bette’s voice cracked at the end, nearly breaking Tina’s heart.

"Oh my God baby I’m sorry"

Bette didn’t try to stop the tears as they rolled down her cheeks, "My father and the others were killed instantly, Kit was the only one who survived but she was in bad shape when I found her"

Tina continued to stroke Bette’s hair, trying to soothe her hurting girlfriend. Words couldn’t express how bad she felt for what Bette had endured.

"How did you find out?"

Tina glanced down and watched as Bette’s hands curled into tight fists.

"By that time I was staying with Jodi in her fortress. A random traveler apparently saw smoke coming from the direction of my village. I lost it and immediately went to see for myself. It looked like a random hit, like a wandering herd of wild Gooru attacked but it wasn’t . . I just didn’t see it then . . I should have known better"

Tina’s eyebrows knitted together in confusion as she continued to soothe her girlfriend.

"Are you saying someone planned an attack on your village?"

Bette nodded.

"Who?"

"It was Jodi"

Tina’s eyes widened, "H-how do you know?"

Bette brought her hand to the collar of her shirt and pulled it down to reveal Jodi’s brand.

"They all had this somewhere on their bodies. The only thing is . . I didn’t know what the mark meant until she left it on me"

Tina looked into Bette’s rage filled eyes and gently stroked her cheek.

"We’ll get her baby, I promise you we will. One way or another she’ll get hers"

Bette nodded and lowered her head to continue her story.

"When Jodi came back to me that day, she already seemed different . . darker and I didn’t like it. She was power hungry and ruthless. The more time went on, I saw that she was nothing like the woman I knew. I didn’t agree with her methods for certain things and we ended up fighting a lot"
