3. Chaotic Venom

Once they all stopped laughing, Poison ask you, "So Venom, where's the rest of your group?" I just stared at him blankly before answering. "I don't have a group." They stared at me confused. "Why?" Was all Jet Star asked. "I'm just better off on my own." I stated.

Really there was a whole sappy story behind it all, but I really didn't feel like getting into all that and reliving the past. That and I don't need anyone's sympathy.

"So you're alone?" Fun questioned me. "Yeah." was all I said. "But why?" he asked. "It really doesn't matter. Look I don't want to talk about it. Just leave it alone." I said harshly. I know I'm being a bit of a bitch right now, but I hate talking about myself in general, much less my past.

"If you doesn't want to talk about it, then that's fine. We won't force you." Poison said. I was grateful for that and shot a small smile his way.

"Well, I should probably get going now." I said to end the awkward silence that filled the room. "What, are you crazy? You can't leave, not in this state!" Poison said. "You'll die out there, you're in no condition to be out there on your own." Jet added.

I was completely confused. Why would they care? Why would anyone care? They don't know me. I'm nothing to them.

"You can leave as soon as you get better, until then you're staying here with us." Poison said. "You really don't have to do this, I'll be fine." I tried to persuade him to let me leave, but of course he had to be stubborn.

"No this isn't up for discussion. You're staying here and that's final." Poison said. "I'm not letting you go out there and getting yourself killed."

"Why do you care? Why does it matter to you what happens to me?" I asked, getting annoyed by the stubborn red head that doesn't even know me. "It matters because you are a strong fighter and we need you to keep doing what you do best. Fight against bl/ind. You can't save the world if you're dead. That, and the fact that we see you as a friend."

I was blown away by his response. That wasn't what I was expecting. Not at all. A friend? Savings the world? I don't see how my fighting skills are making a difference. The world is still in a shit place. I get that I save a few lives, but not the world. And a friend? How can he consider me a friend? I'm no one to them. I'm just some girl they found in the dessert. I can't honestly mean much to them.

I just stood there. In silence. "Believe it or not, we aren't cold people Venom. We might not know you, but you seem like a good person. And from what we've heard, you are." I didn't know what else to say other than, "Thank you."

They all just smiled at me. I'm not used to people being nice and caring towards me. It's been a long time since I had people talking to me much less showing kindness. It was a strange feeling.

"Well, I think it's time we all get some shut eye. I'm really tired and it's been a long day so I'm going to bed. Goodnight everyone." Poison said before disappearing through I door. Everyone else mumbled a goodnight before disappearing just like Poison did. The only one left was Fun who stayed to show me to a room. "You can sleep here." He said. "Thanks." I said. "No problem, goodnight." He said before leaving to his own room.

Well, I guess this is home sweet home. At least for now. I thought while getting into the bed. I slowly drifted off to sleep with the events of the day running through my mind.
