'Silver's POV'
We rush back to the monastery as quickly as we can. Sensei, Misako and Garmadon take him into a room that I heard one of the guys call a 'Medical Room'. I don't have any idea what that is, but I assume they have things that can help him.
A million and one thoughts float around in my mind as Nya, Lilian and I sit on our beds. Julia, along with everyone else in the house, fell asleep hours ago. I couldn't get to sleep, so they told me they'd stay up with me until I I could
"Silver... Silver!..." Lilian claps her hands in my face
"What?!" I look around and see that they're both looking at me
"What's wrong?" Lilian asks
"I... Nothing." I sigh and walk out of the room, out of the monastery. I pass Cole in the hall, but I don't stop to talk.
I fly up to the roof and sit with my legs against my chest and my head pressed into my knees.
Why did it have to be Dez? Why couldn't I have gotten shot?
It should've been me...
I shouldn't be alive...
I hear someone climbing the ladder on the side of the building. I stand up and get into a fighting stance out of instinct
"Calm down Silver, it's just me." Cole's head pops into my vision, the rest of him follows, and he's soon on top of the monastery with me
I drop my hands to my sides and turn my head to avoid his gaze
"What is it Cole?" I ask
"I just wanted to come and see if you're alright..." At his words, something inside of me snaps and tears run down my cheeks without warning
"I'm not alright... I'll never be alright! I'm a freak!" I scream at him
"I've already told you, we've accepted you-"
"I know you've 'accepted' us, but we'll never find a home! You don't understand that! You've always had a home! Us, we've never had a home, and we never will!"
"This is your home now Silver!"
"No, it isn't!"
I want to die...
I have no reason to live...
Suicidal thoughts cloud my mind. I quickly fly down from the rooftops and run to the kitchen. Nobody around, perfect.
I grab a steak knife and thrust it at my chest. A strong hand grabs my arm and forces me to stop
"Let me go!" I scream
"Stop it Silver!" Cole's voice booms and I drop the knife, sending it clattering to the floor
"What did I do..?" More tears fall down my cheeks
"You didn't do anything, but you were pretty close... Silver, do you think of suicide often?" He asks as I turn and push my face into his strong chest. He wraps his arms around my back
"Every day..." I whisper
"Please, don't kill yourself... We need you." I push away from him, anger beginning to build inside of me again
"So that's it? All you need me for is to fulfill my destiny, and then you're done with me, is that it?!" I raise my voice again
"You've got it all wrong-"
"No, that's all you want me for. I know that, Cole. You wouldn't have helped us that day if I wasn't important in some way. You would have left us there to die! I was there for nineteen years, and the only time I ever get help is when something else is needed of me! I'm just a tool to all of you, to everyone!" He's taken aback, he can't even speak. I cross my arms, after wiping away the tears left on my cheeks
He takes a few deep breathes before speaking again
"The things they do to people there are awful Silver, you know that. That's why we need your help."
"Funny, you and your friends didn't seem to care about us before the institute became a threat to your beloved city." I glare at him
"We never knew about what was going on Silver! So stop holding that over us! Nobody knew about what was going on inside that place!" His sudden outburst makes my eyes widen
"...Y-you didn't..?" I ask hesitantly
"We had no idea."
I never knew...
"I'm sorry. I thought you knew before and just didn't care-" my voice breaks and more tears burn at my eyes
"It's alright, you were afraid to trust us, that is understandable after what you've gone through." He steps forward and wraps me in his arms
"And after this is all said and done, I'd be more than happy if you'd stay with us." I look up into his dark brown eyes
It may be just in the heat of the moment, but I find myself quickly pushing my lips to his, and staying there. I wrap my arms around his neck and he gives my waist a small squeeze.
I shouldn't be doing this...
Is this wrong...?
Or is it right...?
