(Third Person POV)
-
The Sanctuary, World 2
-
Being back here felt strange. It felt wrong. The few days that the two had been here felt like torture. Some people didn't know of their previous betrayal and were ecstatic to see them. Others, who did know, didn't say much. However, their eyes stared like daggers into their chests, letting them know that they didn't forget.
Other Second was a lot more forgiving than they expected him to be. Neither Other Blue or Other Red knew why he decided to be so sympathetic. So sympathetic to the point where he offered them a place in his home.
On the way to Other Second's home, they passed by a statue surrounded by flowers in an open field. It didn't take them long to realize who it was for.
"Can.." Other Red spoke in a slight whisper. "..can we sit by it for a little while?"
Other Blue nodded, but didn't say anything. Side by side, they walked up to the memorial and sat right up against it, taking in the silence and the sounds that came with it. The wind brushing against the trees, the distant sounds of people shuffling by, everything seemed so slow now.
Other Blue laid his head back against the stone. He didn't want to cry right now, but he just felt the need.
"That was really stupid of us."
"What was?" Other Red glanced over at his friend.
"Joining _nala. If Yellow were here, he'd probably hate us."
"You just now thought about that?"
"Yeah."
".. I was thinking that the second we joined _nala."
Silence.
"Do you think we deserve to be here, Red?"
"Pftt, definitely not. It's a miracle that we are, though."
"Yeah, you don't." A new voice added. Both of them looked up to see Other Second approach and sit down right by them. "But you're my friends. Can't really change that."
"I guess so." Other Blue responded quietly.
"..Sec.. we're sorry." Other Red murmured.
"Tch, no need to repeat yourselves. You helping the Resistance out of the Control center was already enough of an apology, at least from where I stand."
"I don't feel like I've done enough to make it up to you, though."
"Neither of us do." Other Blue added
"Then how about you start cooking my dinners?"
"We will!"
"No- I was joking. It's fine. You're both fine. You're alive and that's all that matters to me, really. I thought you two were dead for a while before Green told me you two were with _nala. If I knew you two were alive beforehand, you wouldn't be alive right now, but because I spent so long mourning.. I missed your company."
Other Red and Blue looked at each other, collectively feeling horrible.
"I just can't believe you two folded so easily when I beat you two up. You'd think _nala would be a little bit more threatening."
"He is.. but the memories of us.. and Yellow.." Other Red started.
"Don't act like we didn't complain about it." Other Blue bluntly stated.
"Well.. er..."
Other Second just laughed. "No.. I'm not surprised."
The three sat in a more comfortable silence now, just taking in the moment.
"..I still feel like we need to do something." Other Blue confessed.
"Hmm.. if anything, you could always see if the New Resistance needs help. I mean, they probably have a lot on their plates. Plus, I'm sure Green would like to talk."
Other Blue and Red looked at each other.
"Well..?"
