When Darkness Saves

2

Professor Red Pov-

 As if My day couldn't get any more worse. Darkness? Seriously? Well also a non steve so that's a bonus I guess. I could Probably beat him but at the moment I was hurt and that Rose the Chances of being Infected.

...

 Actually why is he just Standing there and not attacking me? That's Odd... Now That I think about it he's Wearing a blindfold, Can he even see me? I could just Walk away-

 The non steve looked directly at me as I took a few Steps back. I had a few choices here.

1.

Fight and Most likely get infected.

2.

Run and die by Blood Loss. Or get found by a more aggressive Darkness and Be infected.

and 3

attempt to make a truce with the Darkness which was nigh impossible.

...

wait a moment...

 The Darkness can heal steves so maybe if I get infected I could Survive. But even Then I might Not be able to control myself afterwards and I might hurt The Red Apprentice... I don't Want that...

 "Um... Mister Red Man?" The Infected Non steve spoke up as I tensed. "Who are you?" What? That's Not something I expected from someone. "And What Are you?"

 "... My name is Professor Red and I'm a red Steve." I told him as He nodded and Smiled.

 "Well it's Nice to meet you Sir! I Think My name's Sabre since It's Written On the Inside of My sleeve!" This Is Weird. He's Infected with Darkness yet kind. Is his Darkness different Then Seer's? Is it Because He's Not a steve? "Do you know why People would attack me?" He suddenly asked as I paused.

 "Because Your Infected with Darkness." I said simply as He tilted his Head Confused.

 "The Black stuff that Heals Me?" he asked as I nodded and He looked more Confused before he Looked at me a bit Closer (At least I think?) And suddenly looked worried. "Your Hurt!"

 "... I know." I said as He took a hesitant step Towards me.

 "Do you think I could make this... Darkness? Heal you?" He asked as I paused again. As Much as I didn't want to be infected I also Would Die either way if I didn't.

 "... I guess. But I'll help you remember whatever your Past is if you do." I said, mostly because I wanted A excuse to stick around him since he wasn't a steve and it gave me a reason to learn more about him.

 "Okay!"

...

Maybe This Won't be so Bad.
