CHAPTER TWO OF FIVE! 2/5

Falling!

Falling!

FALLING!

F A L L I N G!

Wei Ying screamed, reaching out, begging, pleading! For anyone to catch him! Please! He didn't want to hit the ground.

"AHHHH!"

Wei Ying wailed his throat raw, blood rising as the ground grew nearer and nearer-

"Wei Wuxian!"

Wei Ying sat up with a gasp, his back aching more than it regularly did from the rough sleeping.

In front of him, gripping his shoulders, was Wen Qing, behind her, Granny Wen who was holding a crying A-Yuan close to her chest.

Wei Ying whimpered, practically hyperventilating as he brushed his hair out of his damp face, beginning to sob, "I-I'm s-sorry!"

Wen Qing shook her head, "No no it's okay." She rushed, pulling him close, "You started screaming in your sleep, A-Yuan is just worried hm? It's okay Wei Wuxian it's okay." She promised, rocking them back and forth.

Wei Ying shook his head, pushing away from her and standing up, pacing back and forth while Granny Wen reluctantly took a wailing A-Yuan away.

Wei Ying's fingers threatened through his hair, pulling, "I-IT'S NOT OKAY IT WILL NEVER BE OKAY!" He screamed, falling to his knees, "I-I'm like s-shattered glass! I-I'm so broken I am unfixable AND IT ALWAYS HURTS!" He cried, chest heaving, "A-All the c-clans want to kill us! I've lost my family! I have no golden core! I-I've been a-assaulted TWICE! I have nightmares! I AM TRAPPED TRAPPED TRAPPED TRAPPED HERE AGAIN!"

By the end of his screaming, he was rocking back and forth as Wen Qing held her hands over her mouth, eyes wide in horror at his agony.

Lan Zhan sobbed softly as Yanli wailed loudly.

Wen Qing's tears fell silently as she slowly kneeled down beside him, pulling him to sit somewhat in her lap, cocooned by her arms and legs.

Wei Ying was disconnected from reality, all he knew was the agony he was facing and the constant unyielding fear.

And so he screamed, he screamed with all the strength he had until he coughed up blood, staining the floor.

He was out of his mind as he continued to scream even without a voice, his vocal cords so abused they gave out.

He screamed until he couldn't any longer.

When he was eventually calm again, or, as calm as one in his situation could ever be, his head flopped against Wen Qing's shoulder, her tears dropping onto his lap.

Wen Qing sobbed, rocking them side to side, "Wei Wuxian..." She whimpered, "It's okay... I'm here... I'm here..." She whispered.

Minutes later, Wei Ying's consciousness had returned, and he looked up at her, "...W-Wen Qing..." He sniffed, shivering.

Wen Qing gasped, turning to him and cupping his face, she smiled softly through her tears, "Wei Wuxian..." She whispered, eyes flickering over his face as if checking for injuries, "You're okay?"

Wei Ying laughed bitterly, "No..." He shook his head, snuggling back into her neck making her smile.

She rubbed his arm, "Wei Wuxian," She tread carefully, "You... you were... assaulted?"
