Blue's POV
As soon as I saw Purple had the oxygen back under control, I went back to navigations. I just wanted to be alone and think through everything that happened. Everyone was defending Cherry, but I know she's the killer. I know it wasn't Orange, I've known them to long. We were dating, and I had to watch her die. I could have saved him. I should have said something. Now she's gone. Lime was right I did nothing and then I tried to blame it on everyone else. I could have saved them, it's my fault Orange is died.
I looked out the window and cried. Oranges body was scattered throughout space, I could still see small streaks of red. I remembered all fun times we had. She was such an amazing and kind person. He should have lived. It should have been me. I just sat there and cried.
I heard foot steps coming towards the room, and quickly wiped my tears away before they got here. "What are you doing Blue?" Lime asked as soon as he got to the door. "Nothing." I stated, hoping they would just go away. "Why aren't you with a group?" Lemon asked. "Why would I be?" I questioned what she was asking, was every one else with a group? "Safety in numbers." Cyan answered, then proceeded to ask "Why are you here alone?" "None of your fucking business, what is this an interrogation?" I ask getting uncomfortable. I glared at them while also looking for a way out, I couldn't fit through the vents and they were blocking the only other exit. "A little bit, you're the only one who wasn't with some one when the oxygen was sabotaged." Lime answered. "Well it wasn't me, go away." I say and turn back to the window. Maybe now they'll leave, since I've now made it clear I don't want to answer their questions. "Then where were you when it happened?" Cyan asked. "Here, now leave me alone." I said angrily just wanting to be left alone. I'm pretty sure I made that clear to them. I got up and tried to leave, maybe they'll let me out if I just go for the exit. "Wait" Lime said reaching for my hand. Tying not to cry in front of any one and angry that they wouldn't leave, I yelled "I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE." I panicked and punch Lime, before running away crying.
That was a lot harder then I expected to punch him. Fuck, why did I do that. I headed to electrical hoping no one was there. That room was dark and would be a good place to just think. I tried not to think about any thing as a ran. I didn't want to cry any harder.
Soon I reached electrical, were I saw Cherry and Blackberry standing right inside the door. "Why are you crying?" Cherry asked in a fake sweat voice, she was slightly smiling. "You know why, Cherry." I said glaring at her. "Oh is it because your partner died?" She said with no emotion in her voice, but that same small smile on her. "Yes. Because you killed them." I said beginning to cry even harder then I already was. "You have no prof that I did anything." Cherry said still smiling. "Some times people just die." Blackberry said looking of into space as if remembering something, her eyes watered. "Murder is still wrong." I said. "Oh is it?" Blackberry said, as if making a point that I was supposed to realize.
Just then we heard foot steps down the hall way. Cherry began to cry, or at least she acted like it. I ran to another part of the ship before they could get here, they defiantly saw me run away but there's nothing I can do about that now. I didn't want to talk to any of them right now.
Lemon's POV
Me, Lime, and Cyan got back to electrical and saw Cherry crying at the door frame, while Blackberry hugged her and Blue turning the corner to the hall way by security. He got here first. "Are you ok?" Cyan asked Cherry before me or Lime could fully process what was going on. What did Blue do, in the short time he would have had to get here before us, what did he say? Through tears Cherry said "I-I-I didn't k-kill them." While Blackberry and Cyan tried to comfort her. "I-I would n-nev...er hurt any...one." The girl in the red hoodie sobbed "We know, you're an incredibly kind person Cherry." I tried to comfort her. "I d-don't-... why- why dose he t-thinks... it's m-my fault?" She said trying to stop her tears. "It doesn't matter what he thinks, we all know you didn't do anything."
We all comforted Cherry as she cried in Blackberry's arms. It took about an hour before she finished crying. By that time it was already time for lunch, so we headed to the Cafeteria. Cherry clung to Blackberry the entire time.
When we got there I noticed that almost everyone was already there, everyone except Blue. Where is he? "Why isn't Blue here?" Cyan asked what I was thinking. "Dose that matter, he can't make things worse if he's not here." Lime said as we sat down, Cherry and Blackberry finding another table so they could be alone together. "I'm not trying to defend him or anything, but I can understand why Blue would be angry." Cyan said sounding like they kind of didn't want to say anything. "Really?" I said slightly irritated that they would even almost side with Blue. He's they one who is wrong in this situation and Cherry was the one who got hurt, it's that simple. "Blue has no reason to be angry at Cherry, she did nothing." Lime said also sounding slightly irritated. "I'm pretty sure Orange and Blue were dating, that's why he's angry. Of course I think it's wrong for him to try and take his anger out on Cherry though."
