Lost (Rainiamtor book 3)

broken

POV Lilith

I should have known, he would be the one to kill me, like he did mother, now me, laying on the floor, it's funny, had he used any other weapon I could heal, but one of the ancient weapons, the only thing that could kill. that fool the dragon tamer tried to stop my bleeding. the target, Meeps just left the room. 

Charlie that bastard brother of mine, he fell to his knees, that fool of a girl Ciara, trying to help him, if I died, the I died happy knowing I've hurt him. first the one he loves now his morals. I smiled as the darkness took over my vision. 

POV Ciara

I didn't know what to do, Charlie was in a full-blown meltdown, Rain was trying to make sure Lilith wouldn't die, Charlie was just on his knees mumbling, Meeps just left, Lucas just looked around the room. I know what he was doing looking for other attacks. I didn't know what to do, then I remembered, "Shizuku!" I called turning to her. "Go and get help, now, as any as you can," I said. she nodded and darted out the door. 

"Charlie? Charlie? look at me," I said, he didn't look up, he just kept mumbling and mumbling, I looked over to Rain, "is she?" 

Rain shook his head, "Still alive, but barely," Rain answered. 

I turned back to Chalie, "Come on, Charlie get up," I said. it was like he couldn't hear me, "Rain, I think Charlie's finally broken," I said. 

Shizuku returned with two people, Emo Kyle and Nostra, Nostra went to Lilith, and Kyle and Shizuku to me, "What caused this?" He asked.

"Charlie stabbed Her, and this happened, as long as he's been here, he's always had a strong moral stance on killing," I said. 

Kyle looked at him, "Dude you sure you don't need any help?" Kyle asked, Charlie, didn't look up, just carried on to mumbled to him.

"I don't think he can hear us, he's repeated into him, we need to get him out," I said worrying for Charlie.

Kyle leaned down, "Charlie just shake your head, Yes if you're alright, no if you need help," Kyle said, Charlie just continued to mumble, and I thought on ways to get him out. "hold on," Kyle said.

I watch carefully, wondering what idea he had come up with, when Kyle punched Charlie in the chest, ruffly where his scar from the Nether assassin would be, Charlie recoiled in pain, I turned to Kyle and pushed him. "What the actual fuck! is this how you treat people having a breakdown?" I asked slightly angry. 

Kyle turned back to Charlie, "YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN?!" he both questioned and yelled. "You should've accepted help! Don't be like me, who decided to lie and kill himself," I turned to him, confusion in my eyes. "Talk to Meeps...she'll understand," he added. 

Charlie's hands wrapped around his head, "No, No, can't be a burden, can't be," he mumbled out.

'was that really how he thinks? is that how we made him think? damn, I'm really missing Crystal about now' I thought, "Charlie, no one thinks your a burden, we will never will," I said. 

"Charlie," Kyle started, Charlie actually looked up at him, and I couldn't help but notice Shizuku was gone, "You're hurting the others by not saying anything and Lying to them! take it from me, someone who did something similar not so long ago," another pause. "I lied to the one person who wanted to make sure I was okay, then killed myself, I made a promise that was a complete lie, they were concerned and I brushed it off! How stupid are you Charlie? enough to make the same mistake?" he asked. 

Charlie looked down, "I..don't know, I just don't, I never expected any of this, if have changed so quickly, so suddenly I wasn't ready, how could I be?" he asked.

"Talk to Meeps, or I will put a bullet through your skull," Kyle said, and I don't think he was joking. 

"Only if she willing, I've been so rude," Charlie mumbled out. 

"Apologize to Meeps, but don't say 'I'm sorry' tell her why you're sorry and don't convey any sarcasm in it either, Or she won't take it well," Kyle explained. 

Charlie nodded walking towards the door, just in time for Patrick, Azura, Ember and Moon to arrive. walking past them, "I can't argue with the more hostile approach but thank you, and if you tell anyone I said that I'll kill you in your sleep, now I'm going after Charlie to make sure he does what you say," I said walking away. 

POV 3rd person

the Controller smashed more controls, "You're telling me, that they caught Lilith?" Herobrine nodded. "What of Damian? did she catch him first?" Herobrine nodded again, "bring him and the star here," the Controller ordered. 

a few moments later, Kralos and Mortimer brought Damian and the nether star in, "Oh you must be this Controller, what do you want with me?" Damian asked.

the Controller smiled holding the nether star, "You've been a puppet before I wonder if you'll make another one, don't bother trying to resist, the only power here is me," he held the star close to Damian who tried to pull away.

POV Patrick

Azura had finished explaining to me what had occurred in the library, "I'm worried for him, every time I think he's getting better, it gets worse," I said. I stared at the map, "What do you think the Controllers end is? what does he want?" I asked to myself. 

"Pat, there's something I need to say," I looked up at my wife, as she went to continue Ember and Lance burst into the room. 

"Damian missing! we can't find him anywhere," Ember said. "He's nowhere in the deadfort," 

"That's an understatement, he's not on the overworld, if he was my tracker spell would have found him," Lance said. 

I sighed, "great just what we need," 

POV Charlie

I was only half-aware of the world around me, I think I had a good idea where Meeps had gone, I was aware of Ciara trailing behind, I chose not to comment on it, she only wanted to make sure I was alright. I found the Barreks Patrick had given our visitors from the alternative timeline. his words were, "I do not have the room to house everyone who falls into this universe," 

I reached the door, I went to knock on it with my umbrella, force of habit I guess, I knocked gently on the door. A few minutes later the door opened, Meeps standing there, I towered over her, in height, but right now, I felt lower than her. 

"I...I regret everything I said to you, I am infinitely sorry for being an arrogant, idiot, who pretend he was better than everyone, but isn't, for being too self-obsessed to accept help, and I'm sorry for being rude to you," I said, I wait for her answer. 

POV Lucas

I have made a decision, Frostbourne is easily entered, the guardian still sleeping, something else was needed to keep this place safe, I am leaving to get help, all the help I can, I have left a note fro the grandmaster.
