Fear Yourself Chapter 6
"Brion!"
Geo-Force whipped his head around. When he saw it was not Terra, he turned away again. Then he looked again and saw it was Kara.
"Where's Terra? Is she alright? How is she? Why doesn't she visit?"
Kara stared at Brion. He didn't really care. He only cared about TERRA. It was always "Where's Terra? How's Terra? Where did she GO?" She couldn't help it. She burst into tears.
"What's wrong?" Geo-Force and Grandma Cy both said at the same time. They looked at each other. Brion moved slightly away.
"You don't CARE about me do you?"
"Yes, I DO. But Terra, she hasn't been seen… like, FOREVER."
"Neither have I been, Brion, but you don't even give a word of greeting!"
"Fine, hello! Now. Where. Is. Terra?"
"SEE? You simply don't care."
"Yes I do!"
"Fine. Prove it! If there was a fire, and both Terra and I were trapped inside, and you could only save one person, WHO WOULD YOU SAVE?"
"T…." Brion paused. He looked down at his feet.
"See?" Kara said." You may realise it now, but you've been doing it for so long you just won't stop!"
"Kara…"
"WHAT!"
"Listen to me. After that scandal when you couldn't gain any powers, our parents told us you were bad luck. They told me to make sure Terra was safe. So that was my first priority, and it has been ever since."
Kara's jaw dropped to her knees.
"I can't believe it…" she muttered. "All because of that…"
"It's true. Kara, I really DO care. But our parents said to me that I had to make sure that Terra was safe. It was the last thing they ever said to me."
There was a silence as they both remembered the landslide.
"Since then, I've felt it was my duty to make sure I followed their orders." Brion sighed. "Unfair as it may seem, I have to, Kara. I have to."
Kara felt tears come to her eyes. "It's alright. I understand."
"Good. Where is Terra?"
"She's… in trouble. We have to help her." She started to run towards the metal thingummywot.
"Where did you get that?"
"I have new powers now."
Sorry I have a bit of writer's block.
Cheerio,
