Silver (A Ninjago Maximum Ride Crossover)

Chapter 64 [BAD END] Part 3: I Promised

'Silver's POV'

"Silver," a soft voice calls from somewhere in the darkness, "behind you, Silver," it calls again

I turn around, and sadness washes over me like a wave. A large wave, one that is easily capable of drowning many people.

"Lilian," I sound so weak, so pathetic.

Her lips form a gentle smile, "Silver, I love you, so much. I wish I could have told you that sooner," she says. I understand that when she says love, she doesn't mean it romantically.

I lunge forward and hug her tightly, "I love you too Lilian... I'm so sorry," I sob, my voice breaking as I try to catch my breath

"Shh, it's alright. Everything will be alright. Now, you must leave," she says, and fades into the darkness

"Why? Lilian what's happening?!" I begin to panic as she completely fades.

My eyes open slowly, my head pounds. I can feel that I'm laying down, and there is something cold and large beside me. I open my eyes and turn my head toward the object.

I scream as soon as I lay my eyes upon her, her wide lifeless eyes, her blonde hair, red and crusted at the tips with blood, and the dried blood caked around the bullet hole in her head. I throw myself from the bed and onto the floor. Bile rises into my throat just as I feel an intense pain in my lower stomach. I lift my shirt slightly, revealing a large, poorly stitched incision.

"Ah, so you're awake," I hear Benjamin's voice from behind me, and whip my head around to see him

"You monster!" I get to my feet and try to grab him through the bars of the cage I'm in. I feel my stitches rip and blood soaks a section of my shirt. I stop and press a shaky hand to the wound

"What did you do to me?" I ask, narrowing my eyes at him

"I did exactly what I said I would; I removed all of your available eggs in order to creat new experiments once we dispose of you," he replies, looking smug. I lunge at the bars again, causing him to take a step back.

"I am going to kill you, you son of a bitch!" I yell at him, gritting my teeth as my incision opens further

"Silver, you're going to bleed to death if you keep ripping stitches out," he says, smirking cockily. I close my eyes, grit my teeth, and swallow the lump in my throat.

"Let me out of here, and I will rip that smirk clean off your face, you cocky bastard!" I shout, knowing fully well that he knows he's safe as long as I'm restrained.

"That's cute Silver, but you really aren't all that threatening in your bloody blue hospital gown. When was the last time you looked in a mirror? You look awful," he comments, chuckling a bit at the end. I furrow my eyebrows and step back from the bars.

"What do you want, Benjamin? I know you didn't come here to talk about how I look," I state, narrowing my eyes further, fearing the answer to my own question.

"Well, I was coming to check on your incision, but now I think I might just let you bleed out," he frowns, looking at my bloody shirt.

If I die, what will happen to my son? To Khaos?

I focus my eyes on the ground, death would be such a blessing at this point... But I can't leave them...

"Benjamin, stitch it back up," I try to sound demanding, but end up sounding more like I'm begging.

"Oh?" He thinks for a minute before smirking, "I don't think so... At least, not yet. Maybe if you survive seeing the indestructible weapon for the last time," his eyes focus on mine, which widen in horror.

~~~

I examine the observation room again, my eyes landing upon the table with a handgun and three large knives on it. I've been in here for what I guess is about an hour.

The intercom beeps, "sorry to keep you waiting Silver, Khaos is ready to see you now," he is shoved into the room, and I can immediately tell that something is wrong.

"Khaos?" He doesn't respond, he only tilts his head to the side.

"Khaos, attack," as soon as the words are uttered over the intercom, he bares his teeth and growls lowly.

"Khaos, please, no," a tear falls down my cheek. They're going to make me kill him...

He charges at me, and I run for the table. I grab the gun and take off into the air. Before I can fly out of his reach, he grabs my foot and pulls me back to the floor. My body hits the floor with a hard thud, and I'm almost certain that I felt bones break upon contact.

I get to my feet quickly, feeling pain in the left side of my abdomen... Found the broken bones. I hold my right arm around my lower rib cage as I breathe heavily. Khaos circles me, waiting for the perfect time to pounce.

I can't hurt him...

He lunges again, swiping at my body with his claws. I'm able to get out of the way, but not before his claw catches the outer corner of my right eye, tearing the skin. I scream and take the opportunity to fly above him.

I fly into a corner, keeping my furiously bleeding right eye shut. I think he missed my eyeball, but he was awfully close.

He growls and barks, waiting for me to come down. I clutch the handgun in my hand, pointing it shakily.

I have to kill him...

I promised...

I aim at his head. Wait. They were able to bring him back after he was shot in the head last time.

What organ can't they repair?

The heart! I aim my gun at his chest, where his heart should be, and shoot the three bullets the gun had in it.

He looks at me, and his pupils grow back to their regular size.

"Khaos!" I scream, landing just in time to catch him in my arms as he collapses to the ground.

"Silver... thank you," he presses a bloody hand to the back of my head and presses his lips to mine. We pull away, and I hold his head to my chest, telling him that he isn't going to die, though we both know that he will.

"Silver, I . . ." He takes a breath, then coughs up blood. He moves back to look into my eyes, "I love you. . ." He smiles peacefully as he takes a final breath

"I love you too, Khaos," tears mix with the blood running down my face, "I love you so much," my voice breaks as his body goes completely limp in my arms. I scream and hold his body closer to mine.

"There you are Silver, with more blood on your hands," I hear Benjamin enter the room. I give Khaos a final squeeze, and kiss his cheek gently.

I stand up, cradling my ribs with one arm, wiping the blood from my cheek with the other. I run at Benjamin, grabbing his throat and throwing him to the ground. I flap my wings as the guards attempt to pull me off of him. I smash his head against the floor, adrenaline rushing through my veins.

I'm shoved off of him and kicked in the stomach, causing me to cough up a large amount of blood. When Benjamin approaches me, I see blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. I would smirk if I wasn't in such excruciating pain.

Benjamin picks me up by my hair, "your time is almost up, you filthy mutation," he drops me to the ground, and I spit more blood onto the floor.

Guards force me to my feet, and I am just able to keep my consciousness. They throw me to the floor of my cell, and I scream in pain. I am unable to stand again in order to get onto the small metal bed, so I curl up on the floor and cry.

I cry until I pass out from pain.
