Ashleigh felt sick.
What Lily described… was horrendous and evil. How could anyone be so cruel?
“We have to save them,” Ashleigh demanded. “There has to be a way to cure them, to reverse what has been done to them….”
“Do you want to?” Lily asked. “Most of these people, they are… broken, disturbed.”
“No one deserves what you’ve described,” Ashleigh insisted.
Lily nodded.
“If you truly believe that, there is one way to save them,” she replied.
“What is it?” Ashleigh asked excitedly.
“Kill them.”
Ashleigh furrowed her brows. She swallowed, staring at Lily and waiting for her to say she was joking.
“That’s not….” Ashleigh stuttered when she realized that Lily was serious. “That is the exact opposite of saving them!”
“You have a very narrow view of salvation,” Lily replied.
“I’m sorry but killing someone is not saving them!”
