Pain, nothing registered in Natalie's mind except the impact that her injuries were taking on her body. The pain of losing her father was lessening but his shot's were taking effect on her thinking, and partially her social skills. As she rode the back of Kadaj's motorcycle, tears filled her eyes. She stated, "Kadaj stop."
The young remnant leader heard her plea over the roar of the motor causing him to stop the motorcycle, Yazoo stopped also. The look he gave the young couple was one of concern, he asked, "What's wrong brother?"
Natalie looked at the brother's that were looking at her. She stated, "I'm sorry, I'm just slowing us down. I didn't think that Kadaj would hear me ask him to stop the motorcycle."
"Are you alright, Natalie?" Yazoo asked his face showed greater concern now.
The brunette looked at him. With a nod, she stated, "I'm starting to feel really sore, a little light-headed."
Yazoo looked at Kadaj who turned his head from them gripping the handlebars tightly; he knew his brother was hurting to see Natalie going down, he said, "Kadaj, calm down. Everything will be alright-"
"You can't promise things like that Yazoo! Don't try to fill my head with lies; I already know I lost this battle! I don't need encouragement, we need a miracle! I don't want lies; I want a life with someone that I'm losing!" Kadaj spat, Natalie wrapped her arms around him as he sobbed.
"Hey, you three left me!" Loz's voice was heard.
Yazoo looked back to watch as the oldest brother caught up with them, Once they were reunited Loz looked at Kadaj, their leader a crying heap in Natalie's arms. He looked at Yazoo.
"I'll be alright Kadaj, that's not a promise that is a guarantee. Please cheer up, you're making me cry." Natalie said resting her head on Kadaj's.
The silver haired brother looked at her as she smiled gently at him, his focus changed to his brothers that looked at him, he said, "There is a house up ahead, we'll stay there."
The three of them continued their journey.
