This is my imagining of Kyan, but you do you.

His face turns grim and he grabs you by the neck. He lifts you up and you grab onto his arms choking for air.

"You selfish piece of shit! You left to go to Seattle!"

Clementine runs up to be pushed back by Kyan. She is sent back into the wall with a thud.

You give him a sour expression and throw your elbow into his elbow joint. He lets you go holding his arm and you throw a punch to his face, to no effect. Kyan hits you with an uppercut and you are sent backwards. You land hard onto your back and roll to your side.

"Ah shit." you murmur holding your back.

You slowly get up and walk over to Clemetine kneeling in front of her. Kyan steps towards you and you pull out your knife.

"Back off Kyan. I get it, you're mad at me."

He grits his teeth, "I'm more than mad Y/N, I'm furious."

"But I will tell you this once. If you are gonna touch her again, I'll kill you." you say picking up the dazed Clementine.

He looks at Clementine then back at you, "I see, so this is her replacement."

You give him a confused look, "Replacement? What the fuck are you talking about."

"C'mon Y/N, stop with this nonsense- "

"This has nothing to do with her!" you roar.

Clementine comes back to reality in your grasp. Her hands grip you softly.

Kyan lets out a deep sigh, "Fine. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt then Y/N, but I have a compelling case for believing that was the reason."

You look down, "I thought killing them would end it......"

"The cycle never ends, I told you that back in Jackson."

You look at Clem who is looking at you.

You let her go, "Sorry."

"You're fine." she says giving you a smile.

You put away the knife and Kyan approaches you with his hand extended. You push it away and give him a hug.

He pulls you in.Kyan turns to Clementine, "Give us a minute, please."

She looks at him intently with her arms crossed not budging.

"Please."

She reluctantly turns away and walks down the hallway.

"She's gone now Y/N."
