Our Little Talk
This is Vylad's story if you chose Vylad instead of Laurence or Travis.
I pushed myself up and saw that I fell on Vylad.
" Oh hey, Vylad. Sorry I didn't mean to bump into you. "
" It's okay. It didn't hurt that much. "
" Good. "
I stood up and offered him my hand. He accepted it and I pulled him up and off of the ground. Once he stood up I let go of his hand.
" Here you have..."
I reached up and combed my hands through his hair. He had gravel all in his hair. His cheeks held a light blush.
" You had gravel in your hair. "
" O-Oh thanks. "
" Not a problem."
After that, it was completely awkward. We haven't really talked since that night he asked me if I was scared.
" So how have you been?"
" I've been fine. Just a little cold. "
" Is it the curse?"
" Ya, it's already taking effect inside. So I'm basically running out of time. "
" Well let's hope Lucinda and Zoey can find a cure in that time. "
I nodded agreeing with him. He knew as much as I do that neither one of us wanted me to go.
" What was it like the first time?"
" It was fine. "
" How so?"
" Well. Back then I knew that I had to do it. You see the cold didn't come from inside but it changed the climate. it snowed and caused a blizzard. One that would last forever till I was frozen. I was trapped inside Aphmau's house with everyone.
They all tried to keep me warm and convince me that I was okay. I knew I wasn't. At that time Ben was only a little boy. I realized what had to be done so I left her basement and ran up the stairs. Garroth, Laurence, and Aaron tried to stop me, but they weren't good enough. I ran out and accepted death. Like it was an old friend that was looking for me.
Everyone ran after me, but I trapped them and kept them warm. I let myself be frozen. Now look at me 16 years later and It's happening all over again. "
" Wow. That sounds awful. Why did you accept it then, but now your not accepting it?"
" Cause back then I asked everyone a question and they never gave me the right answer to give me enough thought to not do it. Plus everyone would have starved and died of the cold if I didn't go and do it. That's how bad the snow was. Plus I made Garroth promise me he would take care of Ben. I knew everyone would be alright. "
" Now/"
" Now........I have something to live for. My son has grown up and I want to see grandchildren. That and everyone tried hard to bring me back. I have something to live for Vylad. Alta is standing tall and proud cause I rebuilt it from the rubble. I defeated the Demon Warlock for the curse not to be spread and my power to not be misused. No one else can use it except me. Cause I know how to use it."
" Well, what was the question you asked?"
" Nosey aren't we?"
" Yes, I am. So tell me. "
" Would you rather save one person or sacrifice that person for a million? No one ever seemed to answer the question right until Jeb and Travis brought up an answer where I couldn't talk."
" That is a hard question."
" Not really. If it were me I would save a million for the life of one person. "
" That your opinion though. Everyone has a different opinion Y/n. It's hard for me because if that one person were you then that's what makes it hard. "
" Oh...I see. "
" What was Travis and Jeb's answer?"
" That's a secret. "
" Oh come on!"
" Nope. Now if you don't mind I have to get some sleep for a journey tomorrow. "
" Alright. Well, goodnight then N/n. "
He kissed my forehead and walked away. the nickname he gave me ringing throughout in my head. I started walking towards my house when I saw Laurence leaning against the door.
" Hey, Laurence. Is there something you need?"
" Ya, I was wondering if I could come with you tomorrow on your trip?"
" Sure! Meet me and Garroth by the tree with Lucinda's portal."
He nodded and hugged me night. I walked inside and went to my room and fell into a deep sleep.
