"Hey Dive", said WildWing gently, "We need to talk."
"Uh huh", mumbled Nosedive waking up slowly, "What time is it?"
"Don't worry about it", said WildWing, "Nosedive-"
"Let's eat something okay?"
"Sure, but Dive we-"
"You know, I think I'm going to stay in all day."
"Uh huh sure whatever but Dive-"
"But I will have to blow of plans with Mookie and Thrash."
"Nosedive", said WildWing firmly, grasping his brother's attention, "We have to talk."
Nosedive sat up and stared at his brother, "What's going on?"
"Okay now I don't want to upset you but-"
"WildWing what's going on", asked Nosedive panicky.
"Nosedive now I'm going to help you through this-"
"You're freaking me out", cried Nosedive.
"Look", said WildWing, "Now you know this whole hallucination deal?"
"Yeah", said Nosedive quickly.
"Well what's going on is when you got beat, there was the nerve in your brain that got pretty much screwed and it never fixed up which is causing the hallucinations. Now Tanya could easily fix it with a simple surgery, you wouldn't a feel a thing, but-"
"But what", asked Nosedive.
"You would lose your sight for a few years", said WildWing.
Nosedive hung his head.
"Or", said WildWing, "You could try and fight the hallucinations, and with some therapy it wouldn't matter how much that nerve was out of line you'd be okay."
"How much therapy are we talking about", asked Nosedive.
"I'm not going to lie to you", said WildWing, "Tanya explained to me that they pretty much give you a lot of stimulations and frighten you, so that you see that it won't happen again, because they don't really hurt you. It's pretty intrusive stuff, Dive, and it would be for about eight months."
"Eight months", cried Nosedive.
WildWing put a hand on his brother's shoulder.
"So either way I'm screwed", sighed Nosedive.
"Well-"
"Look Wing if you don't mind could you please leave. I've got some thinking to do."
"You sure you want me to go? You don't want me to stay and be here for you? It helps to talk."
"I know, but I need to make this decision for me and not be influenced by anyone else, no offence or anything."
"None taken, and I'll let you be, but just know this. I'll be here for you, the whole team will no matter what you decide to do, understand?"
Nosedive nodded.
"Alright then. It's just pretty much sorting out your priorities. Good luck kiddo, and if you need help, just call."
"Thanks Wing", replied Nosedive, "That means a lot."
WildWing left leaving his brother deep in thought. Nosedive thought about his options and it all pretty much just came down to what was worse. So after much debate from back and forth he came to his conclusion.
The members of the team assembled themselves into the living room waiting for Nosedive's announcement and his decision. All of them thought that Nosedive was going to pick for the therapy, it was most logical. They knew Nosedive and they knew how much he hated being blind and how much he would never agree to something like that. So they all prepared themselves to help the teen through the therapy he would need.
"Okay this wasn't easy", said Nosedive, "And I don't want you guys to change my mind, because I have really valid reasons for what I chose."
"Nosedive", said Canard, "We're behind you for whatever you need."
"Yeah Dive", added WildWing.
"Right kid", said Duke, "And remember it can't be all bad. We'll make it easier ya know?"
"So Nosedive", said Mallory, "What have you decided?"
"I decided to go with the surgery."
