Landon stares down at his blades still not facing Tara who stood on the
roof behind
him. "Landon, you can trust me....I would lie to you again,"she tells him placing her hand
on his shoulder. For a single moment he felt something old and familiar, but it was
quickly gone. His blades re-enter his hands, but he doesn't face her, can't face her.
"Look at me, Landon; I want to help you,"she says trying to make him turn now. "If you
wanted to help me then why did you lie to me before?"he demands turning and hitting
her across the face with the back of his hand. A very faint red mark appears on her
cheek and he realizes what he did. He moves to touch her mark that he put on, but she
shrinks away from him moving a few steps back,"No." Her eyes, that dark hazel color
that he'd fallen in love with held fear- fear of him. Seeing her afraid of him hurt him
worse then anything ever could hurt him. "Tara, I---"he starts, but she only shakes her
head and vanishes over the side of the building. You idiot!he silently tells himself
following her down and looking around. There was a new light on in the building, but he
could hear her footsteps. "TARA!"he yells it now trying to find her as the feeling from
before returns. Landon turns hearing a door shut and a flash of green and black vanish
inside. He walks to the door and pulls it open going in. "Tara?"he speaks her name very
softly now as if afraid someone would over hear. A plane sat off to one side of the room
and a table covered in tools and other stuff lay nearby. He walks to the table then
smiles as a memory returns to his mind:
{Begin Flashback} "Who were you talking to?"Landon questions jumping down from the top of
the hangar and landing not far from Tara. "Your sister." "What she want?" "To know
where you were." "And what did you say?" "That you were working." "Good.....come
here,"he says holding out a hand to her. "Why?"Tara asks walking over to him. "Turn
around and put your back to me." She stared at him a minute hesitating then did as he
told her to. Landon smiled and placed his arms around her waist and resting his chin
against her shoulder. He could feel her hesitation but she didn't try to move out of his
arms as he figured she would.
{End Flashback} In that single moment it all came back. Everything that had happened. Joining the brotherhood, meeting
Tara, their first kiss, and then everything that led up until his amnesia. "TARA! I REMEMBER!"he yells
moving further into the hangar. He finally saw her and wished to heaven and hell both he hadn't. She
was crouched down in one of the corners of the hangar; her eyes were still fearful of him, he could tell.
"Tara...."Landon says her name in a very quiet plea holding out one hand. She shrinks further away into
her corner as if trying to hide from him. I need to earn her forgiveness; if I can.....he realizes turning and
walking out of the hanger after a very quiet,"I love you Tara."
