"Is he dead?"

"Wei Ying! Wei Ying!"

"Wei Wuxian!"

"Don't touch him!"

"Let me help him!" 

...

"Look-"

"....Ughh." I slowly open my eyes.

 Everyone was staring at me.

"What did I miss?" I ask.

"Wei Ying, are you okay?" Lan Zhan pulls me up.

"Fine... just tired." I say.

He grabs me surprisingly. My eyes widen. Is he... hugging me? He never really has before. I did not expect this in the least degree. Did I scare him? I mean we both know I'm screwed but could he be frightening it? I'm trying to fight but I wish I had his hope. I feel him kiss my forehead. I don't even attempt to react. I just want to rest. I'm so tired. My eyes could barely keep open.

"So cute..." Mai Yin smiles.

"I hate to break this up, but... do you see the glowing blue light?" Ibu points.

"Yeah." I say.

"That's the second piece." Ibu says.

"We've come this far." Mai Yin shrugs.

"Let's hope our efforts are not in vain." I say.

Lan Zhan helps me up. 

"Let's go." I say.

He nods. Mai Yin nods. He helps pull me up the stairs. I look down. My strength is fading quickly. I can hear the ringing in my ears. I can hear the ringing in my ears. I can barely hear him. He's trying not to give up on me, but I think I've given up on myself. We manage to get up the stairs. I look and I see the glowing orb wrapped around by dragons. My eyes widen. I bite my lip. I didn't think I'd make it, yet hear I am. I can feel the dagger in my side actually loosening. I let out a breath of relief. 

"There it is." I mutter.

"Thank you, nephew. I finally had a use for you." Shiyo Wuxian says.
