Tsavorite sat in the tent Pyrare had made. He couldnt sleep, due to being over energized since nothing interesting happened the morning before. No fights, No corrupts encountered. It was strange, He had suspicions but decided to just accept the break. Afterall, Hes 2. He deserves a break from fighting and risking himself for the sake of Paradise. Just earlier he accidentally touched some of the corruption, So he had a piece of him missing. It was hard to see but, oh well. Noone was noticing it so he didnt think it was that bad.
"..."
The rain was loud. To him atleast, Everyone else thought he was over-exaggerating the sound. Everything was always too loud for him, Although sometimes it came in handy. He could hear corrupts approaching based on footsteps. It helped alot when fighting and trying to locate someone. At the same time, He hated it. He had trouble listening to people and focusing. He was annoyed by even the smallest of sounds, Like someone tapping their pen. He couldnt stand being anywhere near someone if they were drinking or eating. It would literally drive him insane.
..
"Is that crying?"
The faintest weeps. Noone else can hear it, But it sounded like it was just outside the tent. Tsavorite immediantly stood up and rushed outside the tent. He was confused to not see anyone nearby, He couldve sworn it was just outside where he was sitting. Then he heard it again. In the woods.
"... It could be someone injured..."
He looked back to where everyone was sleeping. He'll be fine going alone, Its just in the woods. So he began to follow the weeps and sobs. Louder and Louder. Closer and Closer. The smell of iron was potent.
".. Pink glow?.."
"Wait.. CYANIDE!??!"
The sweet pink glow revealed his little sister. As far as he knew, She ran off after Circubit got purified. He was so worried for her, What if she got hurt? Where would she stay? Dub couldve hurt her-
Thats when he noticed a huge chunk of her head was missing. She was Over-Matured. Thats not right.
"OH SAPLING, ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?"
He rushed to her, Inspecting the injury. It was completely soaked in warm baby blue blood. She winced thinking he would hurt her. Thats all that happened to her so far. Surprised is an understatement to what she felt when instead she was sheltered from the rain soaking her exposed flesh and nerves. She never expected for someone to help her.
"Who did this to you!? I'll kill them i swear-"
"You're... helping me?.."
"What?... Of course I am! I cant let my baby sister be in such a condition."
He took of his scarf-bandana and carefully used it to wipe all of the blood off her face. It didnt exactly work.. The blood still stained her face and hair. He didnt know what to use to bandage the injury, He didnt carry bandaids or wraps with him.
"..."
He stared at the severity, trying to guess what couldve done this to her. It seemed new. It looked like a big claw wound? What couldve done that? His expression further worried and saddened as he noticed how scared she seemed.
"It'll be okay, Little sis. I'll get you healed in no time..."
He put his scarf-bandana wrapped around her wound, Then took off his cape to wrap around her so she wouldnt be cold.
"Can you walk?..."
"... Not really.."
"Urm.. Okay then, I'll carry you."
"If thats okay, of course..."
"...."
She didnt know. She just wanted to cry and be safe. She didnt know what safe really was though. Being 'round corrupts isnt safe, Even if her tainted colour confused the corrupts to not harm her.. She still wasnt safe. The corruption could still severly damage her. The smell of it already confuses her and makes her ill.
"Are you gonna hurt me?.."
...
"No. I would never."
"Promise?..."
"I promise my whole tree."
"... Thank you.."
Finally, Cyanide wrapped her arms around Tsavorite. He returned the embrace, Gently lifting her and carrying her to where he was sitting earlier. Once he arrived, He gently placed her down to where he sat before. He wondered if he should wake Pyrare to get bandages...
"... No, He would be.. indifferent."
He doubted that Pyrare would let Cyanide have bandages. After all he thought it was better without her! How could he?... How could they?.. She was a hero just like him. Why did they think she was a threat?... She's a hero! An infant! She couldnt even harm a ladybug!
He sighed and went to the sleeping caretaker. Tsavorite looked at Pyrare's coat, trying to locate some bandages... Which he found! Now to get it without waking Pyrare..
...
Tsavorite held his breath and ever so carefully took the bandages from Pyrare's coat. Then quickly flew right back to Cyanide, Where he finally exhaled.
"Got em!.."
"Tell me if it stings, I uhh... Havent bandaged someshape before!.. heh"
Cyanide sat completely still. She didnt look as terrified but still a bit uncomfortable sitting between Pentellow and Orange, Especially with Iris being really close. He was the one to call her a threat. She didnt want to complain or move, In fear of waking any of them.
"... Whats that?"
"Oh?.. These are bandages! You use them to cover wounds!!"
"Ohh.. thats nice :)"
She smiled warmly at someone FINALLY explaining something to her. Her questions went unanswered most of the time. Although being part robot, She couldnt just search up what everything meant! It felt nice to finally have someone listen to her and talk to her like she was a friend.
She did flinch at the feeling of the bandage wrapping around her flesh and exposed nerves.. It stung, not as much as expected, but hey! Better then having it be exposed to the air and rain! She relaxed herself and let out a sigh of relief.
Once the bandage was fully wrapped around her head and ripped cat ear. She returned to phase 2. Good thing it was after Tsavorite finished bandaging her.
Tsavorite held her close to his chest, He felt better when hearing someones heartbeat, So he assumed that maybe it would make her feel better too. The rain slowed as the sun started to rise. A beautiful view. He was glad that he didnt go to sleep that night. He put his scarf-bandana back on, aswell as his cape. He sat with his knees to his chest and used his cape as a blanket. He didnt want Cyanide to be cold. He also didnt want her to be seen. Afterall, Everyone around them rejected her.
well... ALMOST everyone... Cube and Cyan didnt really... say much. He was thankful for that atleast. Atleast there was someshapes who werent so mean. He just wondered how to hide her.
"... Cyanid- Oh."
She was fast asleep snuggled up to his hand.
"Awww..! She needs her rest, hehe"
He smiled as he wrapped the cape fully around his body to hide himself and Cyanide. He would figure it out.
He always will.
Anything for his baby sister.
Anything.
Even if it means risking his life.
