You look up and give me a sad smile before you fade away.

Now, I see your body sitting at the table. A bowl of cereal is mush in front of you. Your skull is crushed in, the blood dried on your temples.

"No, no, no, no, no, no!" I whimper as the voices invade my mind again.

He died.

He's dead.

You don't have his protection anymore.

There's no escape now.

"Ma'am, you need to calm down."

I glare at them, tears flowing down my face. I see one of them picking up your body.

"Don't touch him!" I shriek, and run at him.

A piercing pain stops me. I look at my chest,  where crimson stain is growing. The voices scream and I close my eyes. When I open them and look up, I see you again.

"You're safe now (y/n)," you tell me with a smile, holding out your hand. I take it and you pull me into your chest. I cry, holding you tightly.

"Don't let me loose you again," I whisper.

"I won't," you whisper back, stroking my hair, just as you've always done to calm me down, "I promise."
