You slowly reawakened to find your head still resting on Salem's lap while in the moon lit forest clearing from before...it almost looked like the emerald forest after dark.
You tried to move your body slowly to see if your body and marks were still burning and sore. But Salem was immediately alerted and startled by your motion
Salem: Y/N?...how are you feeling?
Salem helped you sit up right before you hazily nodded towards her. Looking around, your sight eventually looked at the marks that littered your body...
Why?...
Why must your mind and body be a tapestry of curses, marks, and horrid memories?
A rouge tear found itself on your cheek as you hesitate to feel the marks on your face...why?...
Salem: *sigh* I'm sorry I couldn't find you sooner Y/N...
Salem guided your somewhat shaking hands before guiding them to trace the marks on your neck and face.
Salem: these marks...they seem to represent that of a Grimm...but I don't know what they are for...will you be alright?...
You nodded slowly before looking up to the shattered moon...in all honesty...you didn't care to wake up at this point.
If you couldn't even find peace in sleeping...or even helping to de-escalate a fight and situation that you didn't even cause, but suffered for...why?
Y/N: mom?...why does this stuff happen to me?...
Salem stayed silent for a while...allowing soft winds to pass by your ears and sensetive body...your ears had red marks to...
Salem: Y/N...I'm apologize...but I have no clue...to say only that you are special in every way wouldn't be enough, but...to say anything more would be more harmful than good to you...
Salem sat close to you while looking up at the glowing shattered moon with you.
Y/N:...then why?.... I know I can take it...I can take the hits and keep going, but ...does that mean I have to?...I feel like these things happen just because they can, and I can live through it, but...
Salem held you in a warm embrace before speaking once more.
Salem: I may not have the answers to that Y/N...but you are right to ask if you should be the one to be taking the fall every time...and you have the right to choose...but-
Salem poked a finger towards your heart.
Salem: but would you allow someone to be hurt or suffer an untimely fate if you had the ability to intervene?...
You looked down at your easily answered question...it wasn't the world that was at fault...it was you for being so caring.
Salem: that is why I made it my mission to save and teach you...your blood is mixed with the very things that people fear...you make friends with monsters and machines alike...you make bonds strong enough to see through any conflict...and you still hold a smile despite what is thrown at you.
Holding Salem in return of the embrace she has you in, you spoke up and gave your response.
Y/N: then I guess I need to keep being me then, right?
Salem chuckled at your ability to make light of your emotionally vulnerable situation before speaking up.
Salem: I dout you will ever change Y/N...it will be the world that will change for you on day...are you ready?
Y/N: yeah...I'm ready to wake up now...
Salem: then go forth...and go show them who you are...
You smiled ever so slightly as you felt yourself regain consciousness in the real world.
