"I'm so sorry. I've failed you, Max. I couldn't bring the card," Zoe said. He felt so bad seeing her powerless and hurt. He had that terrifying scene of Zoe throwing up her own blood still in front of his eyes.

He felt like he was losing her. He didn't want to feel that again.

Then he was watching Zoe being attacked by her own move card, this caused her injuries. He remembered that his move card almost finished it all. He still couldn't forgive himself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She saw herself in arms of her sister, she was dying. "No... No! Please, no..." Her sister was crying. It hurt her so much hear her cry. She was always the strongest person she knew, but now...

"Zoe, I'm sorry... Please, forgive me!"

She heard dinosaur's roar, it sounded like calling for help.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"No!" She woke up. That nightmare... She still heard that cry in her head. She had to make sure everything is okay.

She quickly ran into Reese's room. When the doors shut, she woke up. "Zoe... What's wrong...? Does anything hurt you again...? Is the blood okay...?" "Yeah, I am fine. I just... I forgive you," Zoe said and hugged Reese. "You dreamed about what Mary said..." Zoe nodded. "I can't imagine you like that. I never saw you cry and I don't want to. I don't wanna die and make you sad."

She hugged her sister.

"You won't see me cry, I promise." Reese's eyes widen in fear when she saw another stream of blood dropping from Zoe's mouth. "No, not again..." She grabbed Zoe's hand and headed away.

This was like a nightmare for her. She felt like her little sister was getting weaker. "Reese..." She looked at her sister, even more blood was streaming from her mouth. Zoe let her go and fell to the ground. Horror in front of Reese's eyes was getting worse. She looked at her hand and realized what she has done.

"This is all because of me... Drack, you...! You're going to pay for this! What now? If I touch her it all is even worse."

"Why I haven't figured that out earlier? Little Genius... If I was smart enough I'd realized it, but I didn't! I'm so stupid! I've failed... How can I call myself her guardian when I can't protect her? There's no time to be sad or blaming myself, she needs my help and I just need to stay away from her."

"What are you doing here so late?" a robotic voice asked. "What do you want, J?" "I wanted to show you a record of your hurt sister, but you're already broken."

"Screw you, J. I don't have a mood or a time for you."

"Now you realized you could help her. You're so useless for her."

"F*ck you, J! I don't want to hear you..."

"Calm down, kids may read this."

"Leave me alone!"

"Why won't you just delete me?" J wondered. "Not now... I care more about my sister than you," Reese answered.
