Summary: Today they haven't come to get him, but to bring someone. A dark-haired girl with black eyes. One-shot, drabble and a gift for Emmy.
It's cold in the cell they've thrown Erik in.
He doesn't know what they want from him. He's scared.
Today they haven't come to get him, but to bring someone.
A dark-haired girl with black eyes.
She smiles.
"Marina. I feel other people's emotions."
He decides to trust her rather than be alone.
"Erik. You're not German."
"No."
"What's German for 'let's be friends'?"
He frowns.
"Lass uns Freunde sein. Why?"
"Las uns freun-de seyn."
"I'd like that."
They take her away three days later. He doesn't see her again. It's the first time in the camps that he cries.
A/N: A companion piece to my story "Sometimes A Rough Start Makes For A Good Road" (which is still in progress), showing a short moment of Erik in the mutant camps. Prompted by a friend.
