"But....I Can't. I'll be alone." She sniffed, wiping at her eyes, which were starting to tear up. 

Cinder spoke softly, "I'll stay here for you."

"But.... I can't. Not again! Please! Get me out!" Rex began to sob. :) 

The nurse from before approached her. "I should say that our clinical recommendation is for you to stay a little while longer. We would like to monitor that head injury in particular."

Calev witnessed the turmoil of emotion that was happening in her head.

I...can't do anything, he thought. What do I say?

After a moment's consideration, he changed tactics, and shared with Eddie several experiences from his own life. Just impressions. He wasn't willing to show anyone his full past. But impressions.

He showed her pain, but how that pain came from love. He showed her the moments of light that broke through even in the darkness. The gentle nights surrounded by welcoming villagers willing to accept an alien traveller on a quest for what he'd lost. The determination of pushing through the darkness to find the light.

Eddie's soul shivered, but accepted the memories. It...it understood. It understood that pain could bring progress. But it saw the value of control. The value of being able to make completely sure that the pain would go away, that there was more joy than hurt. She showed him the world she'd created. The one where all people could heal. The one where love was sure. The one where no one was alone.

And as she did, those memories grew stronger in her mind, forcing away the memories of before.

“Ok, ok, I’ll get you out. You’re going to be ok.” He turned to the nurse. “I’ll take her from here,”

"Are you certain? It could be dangerous to leave that unchecked."

The nurse nodded. "You may leave. I will inform the doctor."

"Thank you!" Rex tried to scramble out of bed.

“I’m going to keep trying to find that person who took Julie. You can come with me if you want. Can you walk?”

Cinder ran over to them, and then said, "She shouldn't be out of the hospital, and you two should definitely not try to do anything alone."

“She’ll be worse off in the hospital. And who are you to tell us what to do?”

"Last time I let you two be by yourself, she nearly died. I don't think I want that to happen again."

“Last time she was alone, after you left her, she was already going to die. We help each other.”

"I have other things that precede you." Cinder said, "And unfortunately, they are more important than saving one person."

Rex nodded, stepping onto the stone. She leaned against him for support.

He lets her. He…shouldn’t have. He should have been feeling like this. He looks at Cinder. “Where did you say that man was?”
