Notes: In this story Thane is Alive and his Kepral's Syndrome in Cured.
She had failed. That was the only thought running through her mind as she stormed into her cabin. Her Biotics flared, that bastard Kai Leng had beaten them. Her mind kept replaying the moment that she heard those horrifying screams. She could do nothing but watch as thousands died, and all because she wasn't strong enough. She stood there leaning on her fish tank just watching her fish swim by while she was consumed by feelings of rage and guilt.
She was there for who knows how long before she felt two strong arms wrap around her. She sighed and turned around to face dark green eyes. They had sadness in them, but they also held concern... for her. She felt his hands on her face wiping away a strange wetness she hadn't noticed before. Tears, she had been crying without even knowing it.
"Siha" he started only to be interrupted
"I couldn't save them. We were so close Thane so close. I should have been able to stop this! I don't know how many more worlds I can watch be destroyed." she finished with a sob.
She felt her knees buckle as the sobs took control of her. Tears running freely now and not stopping anytime soon. His grip on tightened when he felt her knees give way. He easily lifted her into his arms and carried her to the bed. He laid down next to her and gathered her in his arms. He let her cry, knowing no words would this make wound hurt less. Her confidence and will had been broken.
They stayed this way until she calmed down enough to fall into restless sleep, but he stayed and held her through every nightmare. When she finally woke up,it had been hours since he had found her crying with such a defeated look. It broke his heart to see her like that, she was his love, his reason for living. He never wanted to see her like that again. Her eyes were still slightly red around the edges when she opened them. She didn't say anything just put her head on his chest and relaxed while he ran his fingers through her hair.
She took a breath "I'm sorry about that, I shouldn't have lost control like that."
"You have nothing to apologize for Siha, I love you and I will always be here for you."
She smiled "What would I do without you?"
"You will never have to find out Siha"
