Scars (Yoru x Skye)

"くそ...!" Yoru cursed as he trembled across the common room. 

He can feel the warm liquid running down his spin. By this time, his entire jacket is probably soaked with blood, but the rift energy stops the wound from scarring, so blood just kept flowing out. 

The Rift Walker who take pride on his ability getting wounded by the rift, how shameful. At least it's midnight so no one will see him.

Yoru stepped into the elevator, the usually steady hands are shaking due to the loss of blood, luckily he manage to press on the right level. He can feel the wound getting teared even more by the remaining rift energy, along with other recently added scars. 

"......" Yoru bites into his lips, trying not to cry out in pain. Small and big scars are itching or hurting in every inch of his body, and he can sense his consciousness slowly fading away. 

The elevator opened, Yoru stumbled out, dragging himself toward his room. 

There's blood on the floor too, shit.

Guess he will just have to clean up later before the morning comes.

Just two more steps, Yoru reached for the door handle, but his body finally gave up on him. He did manage to lay back onto the door to keep himself standing, but the second his weight pressed onto the wound on his back, he really thought that maybe losing consciousness is a greater option.

He tried to open the door, but his arm is not responding to the brain's command. 

Just as he decide to gave up, a door opened. 

But it's not his room door.

Skye, with shock on her face as she turned her head and saw Yoru, immediately ran out of her room, grabbed on to him before he fell to the ground. 

"Skye...?" Yoru tried to see, which he can not as his vision is all blurred out, with ringing sound in his ears, and the pain feels like that every single piece of bone had broken in his body. 

Skye didn't respond as she struggled to move Yoru. Usually it is pretty easy to walk someone, but that is if they are actually walking, which Yoru's body is definitely unable to do right now. Also, even though Yoru is not the tallest agent, Skye is still shorter than him, making the process even more difficult as she had to basically drag him across. 

When Skye reached her room and got the spare to respond to Yoru, the poor man already passed out. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Yoru woke up, the first thing he saw is the green colored ceiling, with decoration of orange flowers. 

He is laying in someone's bed, it's comfortable, the soft mattress won't hurt his wounds. 

Well, at least this is not Sage's office. 

If Sage finds out about any of this, that woman is definitely going to gave him another long speech about how teamwork is important and much safer than wondering off alone, and assign him to missions with other agents again, which, based on his experience, will not end so great and annoy him to death. 

Yoru considered himself lucky, drawing deeper into the blanket, before he saw the wooden carvings on the desk next to him, and the prickled Australian looking at him sitting next to the table.

So this is Skye's bed. 

Yoru felt his face burning a little, he sat up in attempt to get out of the bed, but then realizes that his body is basically naked except for the bandages covering his wounds. 

Guess he shouldn't consider himself so lucky after all.

At least it isn't Sage's office.

As Yoru quickly covered himself with the blanket and stared at Skye with shock, the girl opened her mouth,

"Sage! He's awake."

Hearing Skye's call, the Chinese woman immediately rushed into the room, her face filled with worry and anger all mixed at once,

"Yoru!!"

And Yoru looked back at the woman with despair. 

くそ.

He is really unlucky. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Yoru, I can not stress this enough, you don't have to be a lone wolf all the time. Do you realize you could have dead if Skye didn't find you? It's not like I can't revive you, but you could have come to me the first second you got back into the HQ. Why would you put yourself through all this pain when I can just take care of them? You need to learn to ask for help, Yoru. I am here. We are always here. You are not by yourself. You have an entire team......"

Welp that's another 30 minutes of Dr.Sage's mental care moment. 

Yoru is on the edge of falling asleep at the end of her talk. He just came back from a mission. His wounds are still hurting. 

He is exhausted. 

"If you need anything, you can always ask me."

He nodded.

"Do not hide your wounds, it is not a shame to get hurt. Your ability is very hard to control, and you are doing well with it."

Continued nodding.

"You have to understand you have people to rely on."

Continued nodding.

"I know you are not listening to a single thing I'm saying."

Continued nodding.

"Skye also lacks teamwork experience before coming to the protocol, but she is actually a fantastic team player. I think you should be able to learn from her."

Continued nodding.

Sage let out a deep sigh, holding in her anger. 

"I will put Skye with you for EVERY SINGLE ONE of your missions until I think you have learned."

Continued nod....

"What?!"

"This doesn't apply for you, Skye, you will still get missions with other agents." Sage turned toward Skye, completely ignoring Yoru's protest. 

 "Okay." Skye nodded as Sage left the room. 

"Don't worry, if this makes you feel better, Sage is the one that took care of you, I didn't see anything." Skye smiled sweetly as Yoru stared at the back of the Chinese healer as she disappeared into the hallway, with no intentions of regretting her decision.

Yoru looked back at Skye, trying his best to not be a jerk to the sweet flower girl, held back his words.

No, Skye, that makes it worse.
