" Too bad he took the pin." Flynn said, before the grenade blow up, right in front of Elizabeth and Elena. When Nina, Chole, and Nathan picked themselves off the ground they rushes to them.

"ELIZABETH! ELENA!" Nathan cried out. Elena was whimpering in pain, Elizabeth was barely breathing.

"No! Come on we have to get them out of here." Nathan cried.

Nina picked Eli up off the ground, "Come on short stuff. We'll get you out."


Ciel woke up startled, he couldn't feel her. He couldn't feel the impression she always left on him when he woke up. Ciel jumped a bit when a rough hand grabbed his arm, looking over he saw the sleepy but worried girl.

"Ciel? Are you alright?" Drake asked groggy.

Ciel's hand covered her own, he gently stroked it, "I will be."

He laid down next to the girl, she curled into him. Ciel gently stroked her back as he buried his nose in her hair. He would be alright, she didn't leave an impression, how could she? It was a nightmare, of what he saw three days ago.

"Why?" Ciel whispered, Why did she mean so much to him when they barely knew each other?

"Why Not?" The sleepy girl whispered against his chest.

Ciel chuckled as he kissed the top of her head, why not indeed.
