Nine
(A/N: HERE'S AN UPDATE, LADIES!!!!! ENJOY!!!!)
Ubercorn ran into the hospital, asking the receptionist where Xuli was. And as soon as he got which room she was, he broke into a full gallop. It was clear to say that Skye was having a hard time keeping up.
"Ubercorn!!" She yelled through heavy pants, "slow...down...please!!"
He didn't hear her, though. He was too busy trying not to freak out inside.
When he reached the ward, he looked in through the window next to the door. On the bed was a pale figure, hair surrounding her head like a hallow, and breathing in shallow pants. Tears were streaming down the dry cheeks and the brown eyes were simply looking up at the mere nothingness on the ceiling. Xuli.
He opened the door, and barged inside.
"Xuli!!!" He cried, "what were you thinking?! You worried everyone!!!"
The pilot said nothing but continued to gaze at the ceiling.
Skye put her hand at Ubercorn's shoulder. "Try talking a little more gently," she whispered, "and ask what happened. She's never gonna open up to you as long as you're yelling like there's a bomb about to go off."
Ubercorn took a deep breath, moved to the bed, sat down, and put his hoof on Xuli's shoulder. Unlike that morning, she didn't object. She just let him put it there.
"Xuli," he said in a calmer tone that last time, "can you please tell me what happened? I don't care if you yell at us, but you need to tell me everything. Please."
She finally moved her head to look at them. Her eyes were glassy and she's obviously been crying a lot. Ubercorn looked at her kindly.
She took a deep breath and explained everything to them. From the time Glitch basically ruined her spirit, to a detailed description on how she felt when she jumped off the cliff, and to further detail about how Kyan kissed Tweak.
To put it simply, it wasn't just hell to Xuli, it was hell to Ubercorn as well. Only hearing this made the feeling of rage inside boil up. Nevertheless, he maintained his cool.
"Xuli..." he said, "it's okay. No matter what happens, don't stop rising. Don't listen to Glitch either, it's all lies. You're exactly the opposite of everything he said. You're really amazing! You're the best pilot on the Academy! You're strong, you're powerful! And you deserve everything good that comes to you."
"Kyan kissed Tweak..." Xuli murmured, "you can't imagine how it feels like!!!! It felt horrible!!! I just wanted to vanish into thin air!!"
Without warning, she shot out of bed, ran out of the room, and vanished down the hallway.
Ubercorn and Skye didn't see it as much of a big deal, until they heard the Vroomster's engines start.
"Oh my god-!" Skye began. She didn't have much time to speak, though. The Vroomster took off, sped past the hospital, and then...
CRAAASH!!!!!!!
Skye's screams echoed through the air as Xuli deliberately crashed the Vroomster.
The unicorn and fangirl ran out of the hospital and found the Vroomster as a heap on the ground, with Xuli on the driver's seat, bruised and crying all over again.
Skye took the Vroomster's damaged parts off as Ubercorn swiftly carried Xuli out of the wreck as she cried onto his shoulder.
"It's gonna be okay...it's gonna be okay..." Ubercorn whispered to her as she kept on crying.
"I deliberately crashed the Vroomster..." she whispered through heavy sobs, "I never do that-! What's wrong with me-?!"
"Nothing's wrong," he assured her, "you're just scared, stressed and nervous. But I know you're still the same Xuli underneath. I promise."
He nodded at Skye, who teleported back to the JetPad.
Ubercorn carried Xuli back into her room, explained that he will be staying overnight to the medical team, and tucked Xuli up in her bed. She tiredly closed her eyes and promptly fell asleep, her tears drying on her cheeks.
"Love you." He whispered, kissing her on the cheek.
Xuli really needs to get over it, guys.
Who here agrees?
