The Sun's Quest

Rest up. I don't know what that purple stuff does.

Halina lay down on a blanket on the floor. Rei sat down opposite to her, no longer panicking but still shaking.

"I hurt her.
I hurt her.
I hurt her.
I hurt her.
I hurt her."

I couldn't hear her say anything but that.

"She could've died. I might've killed her. It was my fault Maron died."

I froze.

"My fault.

My fault.

My fault.

I could've killed her."

"It wasn't your-" I took a sharp intake of air in, memories of Maron coming back to me. Memories of the younger version of her, crying, broken... Scared. "It wasn't your fault." I told Rei.

An hour or so later she stopped and fell asleep.

Halina woke near immediately after Rei fell asleep. "Rest up sis, I don't know what the purple stuff does." Halina giggles. "I feel kinda energise-" Halina trailed off, looking somewhere. I follow her view .

Rei was curled up on the ground. It was clear that she was crying. I look at Will, "what happened-" then, I remember. I face palm. "She's claustrophobic!" I whisper-yell. Will nods solemnly looking at her. I sigh. "poor Rei..."

-------------

I'm in darkness. Again.

I feel. What is this feeling?

Guilt.

Horrible horrible amounts of guilt.

I hit Halina!

Is she ok?

I hope she is.

It'll all be my fault!

Just ..

Just like Maron.
