The forsaken (Rainimator book4)

goodbye for now

POV Charlie

before I go to Patrick, I had to do my bit of work to do, I pulled out my laptop and start to programme a simple program, it took less than an hour before I finished the program and plunged Zen chip into it. "Good thing timelords made an A.I chip that works with a USB drive,"

with any luck this program will repair and bring Zen back online."Really I should go and see Patrick now, but that's never a good prospect, what do you think.....oh right," not going to lie, I'm not used to being left completely alone, and I don't like it.

I left the lab thinking, about what Ember said, about not wanting to leave, He probably said it just to try and cheer me up, I was walking down the hallway when I saw someone I hadn't seen in a little while. Lyria, I was happy to see her, Lyria was such a sweet and caring person and I haven't seen her yet. 

POV Lyria

I froze when I saw him at first. Charlie. I...know he up, but I hadn't seen him yet, for a moment I was relieved even happy to see him, but that didn't last long, I...I couldn't look at him without, the feeling of lightning boiling my skin, Dexter trying to kill me under Crystal's control. 

"Lyria?" I heard him ask

"GO AWAY!" I yelled at him, my eyes squeezed shut. I could feel my face turning red as my voice went high pitch. "WHY DON'T YOU GO AWAY!" I yelled. I finally opened my eyes seeing the shocked and confused look on Charlie's face.

"Lyr...." He didn't finish, as I pushed him back.

I don't know why I blamed him, but right now that didn't matter to me, not one bit. "I HATE YOU! EVERYONE YOU GO NEAR YOU BREAK YOU'RE LIKE A CURSE!" I yelled. Charlie continued to stand there, his jaw dropped. "I WISH IT WAS YOU CRYSTAL TOOK! NOT MY SISTER! ALL YOU'VE DONE IS HURT ME," I continued to yell. "Ahh," I turned from him and ran down the hallway as I started to cry. 

POV Charlie

I...I didn't know what to say, what to do. Lyria was the sweetest and kinds person I know, if...if she thinks that, then it has to be true. I...in the year since I came here, all the people here all the friends I've made, I always thought me and Lyria had a special connection, I had taught her so much and she'd done the same with me. 

To see her this angry with me. blaming all this on me, everything that's happened. It must be true. I do know my place here anymore, do I have a prospers in Frostbourne, or am I just dragging everyone around me down? 

"Charlie you alright? you've been staring at that wall for a good minute," Shizuku asked. When did Shizuku get here? 

"Umm, no I'm fine Shizuku...I need to do something, I'll...I'll speak to you later," I said walking down the hull half-dazed, Lyria hated me. 

I reached Patrick's office and knocked. "Enter!" I heard a not-so-cheerful voice call from the other side of the door. I took a deep breath and pushed the door open. Patrick looked overworked, deep bags under is his eye, a look that said 'good news only' 

"You want to see me...." I didn't get a chance to finish. 

"Charlie, HOW THE FUCK DID YOU LET RAZER DIE!" He yelled. 

"I...."

"NO! I don't want an excuse, did you even get what you were after?" 

"No, but Crystal was there and...." 

"Oh shocker, you got side track by Crystal, When will you learn that you can't fix every problem," Patrick said. 

"Yes but I..." once again unable to finish.
