Vi's pov act 1 spam pt. 6

I open the door, running down the stairs, Sunny following behind barely even walking.

"Vi? Sunny?" Mylo asked as we entered.

"Where's the-" I started but was cut off by Powder hugging me around the waist.

"Oh, you're back!"

Powder looked up at me with a smile but it quickly faded. Please, stop. You need to think I’m strong.

I walked to the table which was covered in weapons. As I reached for Vanders gloves, Mylo grabbed my wrist.

"Hey. Those are Vander's. Slow down, what's going on?" 

My breathing was sporadic. 

"Benzo's dead." Sunny spoke up.

"Dead?" Claggor asked, fear evident in his eyes. 

"They took Vander." I finally spoke.

"Who took Vander?" Mylo questioned.

"We don't know. But we need to help him." She told Mylo. 

"We're going with you." Mylo said. 

"Whatever killed Benzo…was like nothing I've ever seen. It tore him apart." My voice was breaking. Shit. Keep it together.

"You're not doing this alone, Vi." Claggor put an arm around me.

"He's our father too." Mylo said, as he made the same action, placing his arm on my other side.

"Do you know where they took him?" Claggor asked.

"Ekko followed them." Sunny responded. 

"The old cannery next to the docks.'' I finished. 

"He said-" I cut myself off seeing Powder standing with a bag, ready to go. 

"I need you to sit this one out, Powder."

"What?" She asked. 

"You're not coming." I said, moving closer to her.

"I'm not afraid." She retorted.

"It's too dangerous."

"But families stick together. You said it yourself!"

"I know what I said-" Powder cut me off.

"I want to fight. I can help."

"You're not ready." I snapped. My face softened as I continued.

"You're all I have left. I can't lose you."

I reached for a flare at my side and handed it to powder.

"Here. If they come for you, take this and run. Wherever you are, light it up, and I'll find you. I promise." 

I touched our foreheads together and walked up the stairs grabbing Sunny’s hand as I went. 

Pulling her up the stairs with me, I left Powder in the room alone. I will protect you till I die.

"Let's get Vander and get out." I said as we sat on the roof of the cannery. I dropped down the open skylight first, then Mylo, Claggor, and lastly Sunny. 

As we snuck down the walkway, we spotted Vander tied up in a room with an open door. 

"Vi?" He asked as I ran to hug him. "What are you doing here?"

"We're breaking you out." I stared at him, scanning the injuries on his face. "Mylo." I said as I stood up and walked to Sunny.

"On it." Mylo started picking the locks on Vander's restraints.
