~~ Preston's POV ~~
"You can't win," I monotonously stated to the boy in the dark blue hoodie in front of me.

"Preston please..." Robert cried on the ground, tear streaks lining his beautifully scarred face and his deep brown eyes watering mercilessly.

"He's too strong," I replied, my diamond sword stained with blood. Lucky stared down at Elizabeth with blank blue eyes, as Liam was staring towards Shadow.

"Please Preston, I know that you can fight it..." my love whimpered as the gashes on his chest bled critically red blood.

"You are nothing," I growled.

"Preston..." Rob wheezed, his crimson-stained arms shaking and barely able to hold himself up.

"You are pathetic," I scoffed, digging my sword into his leg again.

"I-I love you," my love stuttered, shaking helplessly as he cried from the pain.

"You are worthless," I screamed at him, my body in almost perfect shape besides a few cuts here and there.

"You're my everything," he continued, tears fighting their way down his face and resting on his chin.

"You are weak," I taunted, venom itching in my voice.

"You could never truly hurt me," Rob gasped for air as his condition worsened.

"And I never loved you!" I hollered, stepping on his stomach as hard as I could.

"I would give everything up for your happiness," Rob replied his body suffering and breaking under my foot.

~ Vision over ~
I woke up covered in sweat in the Medical Room next to Rob and Vikk.

"Hey, Pr-"

"GET AWAY FROM ME!!" I screamed, cutting Rob off and hurrying to the back of the room.

"What? Preston, it's me!" he replied, holding up his arms.

"Exactly, and I don't want to hurt you" I cried.

"Baby why-"

"He saw something, " Vikk stated, leaning against a wall. His eyes were closed and his arms were crossed, his face concentrated and disturbed. "Something that has to do with you being hurt by him. I don't know what, and I think he's trying to make sure that I can't get inside of his head, cause I'm getting an image, but it's extremely blurry. I see... hands in front of me... and a sword... and something blue... and a lot of red."

"I don't want to hurt you..." I repeated, shivering with fear of the vision I had just seen. It was so much worse than my first one.

"I HEARD YELLING WHAT HAPPENED?!" Lachlan screamed, bursting through the door, as I flinched at the sudden noise. Jerome also ran in, to Betty in hand, hollering a war cry, while Mitch sighed and stepped through the doorway, gently closing the door behind him.

"We don't know if Preston had a nightmare or a vision, but it was about him killing Rob, and now he's scared to be anywhere near Robert," Vikk explained. I didn't have time to hear anything else because I was already rushing out the door, tears streaming down my cheeks like gushing rivers and falling off my chin like boulders off of a cliff. I didn't want to be in that room any longer, and I wasn't going to be. I didn't want to hurt anyone. I ran past a few confused people in the hallways that I knew like the back of my hand.

"Preston?" Shadow asked. "Wait, Preston, what happened? Where are you going?"

"Where I always go!" I cried back.

Eventually, I reached the place where I desired to be, and I sat down on a quartz bench in the middle of the large garden. The flowers around me only further reminded me of Rob, which reminded me why I had originally come here, but it also provided comfort, even if only a little.

As I heard the door to the base open and footsteps of only one person behind me, I sighed, knowing who it was, but, overall, I was pretty glad that she wasn't someone else.

"Preston..." Shadow pronounced the sound of each letter softly, almost as if my name itself was delicate and full of meaning. "What happened?"

I stayed silent, a single drop trickling from the corner of my eye, down my smooth, tanned cheek, shakingly falling to the grass from the bottom of my chin.

I can't lose another important person in my life... I just can't... Maybe Seto can make that potion of revival again because losing Rob would be worse than losing my father. I can't lose Rob, or else I won't be able to live.

He's the sun that I orbit around. He's the perfect lamb who was sacrificed to save. He's the singular rose in the middle of all mayhem and chaos. He's the air that I breathe and the medication that cures my sanity.

I already suffer from nightmares about his death which was caused by Herobrine, and it's always Rob who heals me. What would I do if he permanently died to my own hands?

What would I do if I had human blood on my hands? Who would I be able to turn to? Where would I go? How can I avoid this? I wouldn't be able to deny that I committed such a crime. How can I protect the one person who matters the most to me? I wondered, my eyes closing, my peace breaking, my hands curled and shaking, my voice broken, my heart shattered, my lungs losing, my brain failing, my tears merciless, my throat erupting, my sobs almost silent.

Then it all stopped.

"I don't know what you saw. I don't know how you're feeling. I don't know what you're thinking, and I don't know what you're going through, but it doesn't matter. Not now it doesn't, because I don't care if you want to avoid me at all costs. I love you. If I lost you, it would be worse than losing my father. I can't lose you, or else I wouldn't be able to live. You're the sun that I orbit around. You're my perfect lamb who was sacrificed to save. You're the singular rose in the middle of all mayhem and chaos. You're the air that I breathe and the medication that cures my sanity. You heal me. You're the first person I would turn to if I had blood on my hands. You're the first person who I would go to. The one thing I can't avoid or deny is my love for you. I would do anything to protect you because you're the one person who matters the most to me. I love you," he whispered, his forehead pressed against mine as he kept in his crouched position in front of me. I nodded slightly, my breath eyes opening, my peace mending, my hands relaxing, my voice reforming, my heart healed, my lungs evening out my previously unsteady breath, my brain processing every word, my tears stopping, my throat calmed, my sobs silencing.

"No more secrets," we whispered at the same time. He reached up to kiss my forehead softly, but I straightened my body position so that his lips would meet mine, causing him to smile and stroke my cheek.

"I'll leave you to your thoughts, but, when you're ready, you can tell me anything. I love you, Preston. Never forget that" he smiled before kissing me one last time. Again, I nodded, but this time, he walked away. Another pair of footsteps approached me, this one softer and slower.

"Preston... I see that nothing happened between you and Robby huh? Cause otherwise, he'd be having a long lecture from me right now. Heh. What happened while you were asleep?" the owner of the footsteps, Shadow Viper, asked. I turned my head slightly as she sat down next to me and put her hands on my shoulders.

"I don't really know. I saw my own hands, I had my own sword, I heard my own voice, I was in my own body, but I was saying things that I could never say, and I was doing things that I could never do. I saw myself abusing Rob physically and emotionally. You were there too. Liam was doing the same thing to you. Beth was there as well. She was being hurt by Lucky. Liam and Lucky's eyes were blank, but I couldn't see my own. I think I saw a vision, and I'm scared..." I replied, tears welling up. "None of you fought back because you didn't want to hurt us. Shad... I'm scared," I cried, my head fully turned towards her.

She started tearing up too, fully wrapping her arms around me in a hug as I cried into her chest.

"Shh... It's ok... It's going to be okay... Hush... Preston... It's going to be alright..." she whispered, tears calmly falling like small crystals down her cheeks. "If what you saw actually happens, we'll find a way to counter it. There's always a solution to everything. Always. It's ok. Everyone is here for you. Rob is here for you. You know what, Rob would probably rather be hurt by you than the other way around. We're all here, together, unharmed, and that's all that matters right now."

"Y-yeah, we're together forever... Right?" I asked.

"Together forever," Shadow replied, looking me dead in the eyes. She squeezed my hand comfortingly and I whipped away a stray tear.

"Hey Preston, you wanna rest, train, or play ToD?" Mitch asked with a strong fondness in his voice.

"YES!! TALE OF DOUGHNUTS!!" Lachlan yelled from farther away.

"NO!! TRUTH OR DARE!!" Jerome screamed back.

"PRESTON IF YOU REST, THAN THE REST OF US WILL PLAY TRUTH OR DARE WITHOUT YOU!!" Rob laughed.

"THAT'S NOT RESTING ROBERT!! THAT'S CALLED AVOIDING DISASTER AND IT'S A WISE CHOICE THAT NONE OF US WOULD EVER DREAM OF MAKING!!" Vikk screeched in reply.

"I think that the boys and I got some training to do," I chuckled, standing up.
