Ku: none of this and your fault

Ori: Of course it's my fault, if I hadn't tried to save that sentinel none of this would have happened, and all my fault - Ori says while wiping tears from her face - I'm not a hero.

Ku: Ori don't blame yourself, just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you're not a hero.

Ori:...

Ku: just stop and think a little, you saved that sentinel, even if you didn't have to save her, does that take away your merit from being a hero?- Ku says sitting next to Ori

Ori: I think you're right - then she gives a small, low laugh - it looks like that scared owl grew up, didn't it? - Ori says with a small smile on his face

Ku: it looks like i'm the big sister now- Ku says joining the fun, Ori then rubs Ku's head and messes his feathers off his head.

Ori: only in your dreams - Ori says smiling at Ku, while moving his hand away from his head.

even smiling, Ku could see that Ori's ears were still drooping, she knew that Ori was very optimistic and playful so she imagined that this sadness would soon pass, so Ori says:

Ori: we better get back, Mom must be home by now

Ku nods, so they start walking back home, as they weren't that far it didn't take long to get there, they could see Gumo sleeping in his hammock with some fruit coats on the floor, so they enter and are greeted by Naru, who was eating some fruit.

Naru: Hello my babies, are you feeling better already?

Ku: Yes, we are already feeling better - Ori nods

Naru: Great, come eat some fruits - Naru said while picking up a fruit.

they joined Naru and started eating, while eating Naru noticed that Ori's ears were drooping and that he was discouraged, then she asks:

Naru: it's okay my baby? - Naru asks.

Ori: it's okay mom, don't worry - says Ori with a smile.

Naru, Ku and Gumo knew that it would take Ori a while to deal with all of these events, as they knew that it would not be easy for him to admit that what happened is not wrong.

1 ONE WEEK LATER

Ori was in a dark and quiet place, he couldn't see anything but the darkness and his own glow, so he hears a snap he looks around and sees a purple shadow with white eyes Looking at him, he was very scared but he calmed down a little because the shadow was just standing just looking without moving,then another pop and heard, and two more shadows appeared one on the left side and another on the right side, he realized that the shadows were cornering him, he prepares to run through the space behind him so * creak * another crack was heard and another shadow appears behind him, now he was surrounded he looks around to try to find another way out but there was nothing, he tried to attack any more of the attacks had no effect, so he stood waiting for anything that would happen,then he hears one of the shadows say:

IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!!

What?- Ori speaks with fear

NIWEN IS IN THE DARKNESS FOR HIS GUILT.!!!- Says another shadow

NO, no, it's not true -Ori says trying to plug the ears

AND STILL CALL YOU HERO?

I'm a hero, I saved nibel- says Ori with tears forming in her eyes

KURO WAS THE TRUE HEROIN SHE WHO SACRIFIED HIMSELF!!!

P-please S-stop - Ori says in a shaky voice and with her hands on her head and crying

YOU ARE A MONSTER!!!!

iT'S YOUR FAULT!!!!

NARU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOU!!!

Not her and my family, and my family loves me - Says Ori lying on his knees on the floor, crying.

WHO WOULD LOVE SOMEONE WHO DIDN'T SAVE NOR THE SISTER HIMSELF!!!

YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE A CALLED "GUARDIAN SPIRIT"

* ORI THEN WAKE UP *

Ori wakes up very scared and crying, his heart was beating very fast and fear ran through his body, he wipes his tears and checks to see if he accidentally woke nobody, luckily everyone seemed to be asleep, so Ori remembers his dream it wasn't the first time he ever had that dream,only this one was different, other times the shadows only made him sad, this time they made him feel guilty he tried to go back to sleep only that, every time he tried he never fell asleep, so slowly he gets up from his bed and lies on Naru's lap, then he starts to sleep again only very afraid of what he might find in his dreams.
