Accidentally On Purpose

Severed

                                              Arctica's P.O.V.

I screamed as blood poured from my side. I could no longer feel the warmth of my brother beside me, only the cold of the woods. I looked at our attack and screamed again. It was an unknown female who had a bloody sword in her hands. She was wearing pajamas, with wet blonde hair that was way to short. Her icy blue eyes pierced mine, and she smiled. "I did this for Ashley. She'll be so happy at the end of this chapter. She hates you, by the way. Gonna sick Lucy on you. Make you a ragdoll." she told me cheerfully before slapping me in the face. then she disappeared, sword and all.

Fox didn't see her. Nobody else saw her, actually. But I was already feeling light-headed. I fell to the forest floor as I heard Quill shout, "I wish all my friends are healed! Right now!"

Uanai clapped his hands, and suddenly my brother stopped bleeding. The cat looked fine, and Sketch could walk. But I was still bleeding. I moaned to get some attention my way, and I did. Fox scrambled over to me. "We--we need a hospital! Or something!" he cried, shaking. Aw, he does still care about me.

Too bad I hate him now.

But I need him to keep me alive, so I kept up my act of repent. "I'm s-sorry. For everything. It's all my fault, I'm sorry." I whispered in a raspy voice. I'm sad to say I wasn't trying, either. "Please forgive me. No, wait, don't. I don't deserve it, I'm horrible. Forget me. I'm sorry." I rambled, lies spilling out my mouth. I really don't deserve his acceptance, he's to low-level for that to happen. And I want him to remember me forever. I want them all to remember me forever.

And I've never been sorry.

Well, except for when the cat jumped in front of the kids. I was sorry for myself because my plan had gone all wrong. She was supposed to run--isn't she always doing that? She is just a dumb cat that doesn't care about anyone but herself and attention--but she didn't. And then the kids were safe. If she had actually ran, I would have also ran as the children died behind us. I would force Fox to pity me using my powers and then I would lie and blame it all on the cat. I would tell poor Annelid, Sunny, Jun-May, Kyle, Nico, Oliver, Mario, and hopefully Dylan that the cat had failed to warn us that there were guards. I would tell them that when they saw us that she turned against us and got out of the way s they could fire on the kids. That me and Fox tried to protect the kids that the cat knocked us out, and when we woke up we were on our way home. They would have believed me because there were no other witnesses, but now...it's all the cat's fault! I hate her so much! I wish she had just died!

"I'm sorry too, Arctica. Please, just...hang on, okay? Please." my brother told be, cradling me in his arms. I lifted a weak hand to his cheek. Somehow, I knew my time was almost up, so I yanked his hair and said with a snarl, "This is all your fault. I hate you."

His face fell and I pushed away from him, rolling in the dirt. And suddenly a tree fell, right on top of me. I had enough time to leave, but I didn't. I let it fall.

I hope my brother dies of grief. I hope they all die.

I was the only one who really did care, I thought. My very last thought.

How pleasant.
