John POV
-


Wherever innocence lies guilt is near.

I am guilty.

I am not innocent.

They're oblivious to my guilt

I can hear what they think now...

It hurts...

I wish I would've never tried to figure out if I have more power.

I could be happy.

Do you know what else this power is doing to me?

Its bringing back memories from the times where I was full of guilt.

Peggy wants to help me, I can hear her quiet sobs as she sits alone.

She was never like this.

Never so emotional, she wants to help.

Its frustrating her because she doesn't know how...

All she knows to do is cry.

The same way she did when she believed she was a monster.

Alexander is scared of me, he's never seen me act so rude.

The others are worried, they're leaving it up to Peggy to save me.

Why?

She doesn't know how.

Why Can't they see that?

She's struggling, she can't do it.

We've all guarded her from reality for all our lives, how do they expect her to know how to hold the most dangerous power.

It's made her braver, yet more emotional and frustrated.

It hurts me...

It hurts to hear her quiet sobs.

The thoughts going through her head as she cries.

I'm guilty.

Ive done some bad things.

To her specifically, she still finds a way for forgive me though.

Nevermind, she can't forgive me....

Because she doesn't know.

She doesn't know what I've done...

In her eyes I'm still pure.

They don't understand...

They need to understand ...that where Innocence lies, there is always guilt  nearby.
