Characters: Anya



Their blood had completely ruined her dress. Time was she wouldn’t have minded it at all, maybe even been proud, but now it weighed on her. When had vengeance become so messy and disturbing? Back in the old days, making painfully real some woman’s heartbroken metaphor had felt righteous, fulfilling, maybe even a little fun. Embarrassing transformations, exploding body-parts, sexual assaults by farm animals? Good times and just rewards. Anyanka had always known those men had gotten what they had coming but now, as Anya frantically tried to scrub the blood from her hands, she found wasn’t quite so sure.
