The Doctor had left Ben to settle in the woman, He'd managed to hold himself together long enough to stand there while he talked to her friend. Even while they talked about psychotic breaks.
No. This was her
"You bitch" he said, shaking his head sadly and starting to go through Nicole's belongings.
Nicole Sanders, James Matthews, Jenna King. And more besides, big town like LA people weren't noticing the rise in crazies yet. But Ben noticed. This was Glory doing what Glory did best, ruining lives because she wanted so badly to go home. Ben hated her with everything he was but she was part of him.
He checked the dosages again as per the Doctors orders. She'd put up quite a fight.
"I'm so sorry Nicole."
He picked up her purse, money, a few cards...a photo. A dark skinned kid, curly hair, smiling, another of Nicole and a man, maybe her husband, the kids Dad, the same kid, looked so damn happy. And another of four kids, what was this girl, Superwoman.
Glory had ruined their lives too, HE had ruined them, he knew if he died so did the Hell Bitch. But Ben wouldn't do that. It wasn't fair to ask him to, no matter what she did, no matter who...
He deserved to live as much as anyone right.
"I wish I could stop her Nicole, I do, I really do."
He fixed the blanket around her. "This shouldn't have happened."
