(Obsidian)
After a long day with no success from either of us, coming to an impasse Euclase, tired, wanted to talk to me.
Euclase stopped near me, and said, "I'm so glad to have at least one person who doesn't treat me like I am a criminal," and she hugged me. She wrapped her arms around me and her hand touched my neck. Then everything went dark.
"OBSIDIAN! Wake up please! I didn't, I'm," Euclase had her hair dangling from her head, with her face over me, and she was crying uncontrollably. "Sorry." She whispers, and then sniffs. And the stands up, and walks, not skates, which never happens and sits down in a corner and cries.
I see her, it's fuzzy, and I see the guards, they look interested in what happened. I stutter, "Eu, Euclase, I'm, I'm fine." She looks towards me and gasps, and runs towards me. I stand up and am not completely stable on my feet, and start to wobble. She catches me before I fall by the hand. And she goes wide eyed, and lets go, and I fall. "I'm not hurt, chill. You wont hurt me." I stand back up, and try to put my hands on her shoulders, to talk to her.
"Don't touch me! I will try to kill you again!" She cries again, and back up from me.
I think of an idea. Up to this point I have learn't what, and exactly how her powers work with my orbs, by her demonstrating it. I figured I could do the same here too. "Come here, chill out. I'm fine now. I think I fainted. Nothing much."
The gem walks over to me. Cautious not to touch me. And I make my orbs. And she looks at me. No expression. Her face is wet with tears. I quickly grab her hands. She gasps and pulls back, I don't let go.
"You stopped me from falling, I don't know what you did, but it doesn't work on my hands," I say, trying to be a compassionate as I can. She then relaxes. I slowly, whilst still having my orbs out, bring her hands up, and I quickly make her touch the back of my neck. Once again, everything goes dark.
I wake up to find Euclase teary, and she has her dagger weapon pointed at her gem. She is going to attempt suicide. "Euclase! Wait!"
She turns, and shakes her head. "If I am to hurt people, why should I live."
My orbs blink twice, and float back into my gem. I understand everything now. "Because you weren't hurting me. You incapacitated me. Just merely made me faint!"
"I want to able to touch people, not disable them!" She cries again.
"You can. Just not in 2 places. The back of the neck, or the gems. You can touch anywhere else! You can disable people, and even machines that are a threat to you, without hurting them."
We both had the same thought, at the same time. She doesn't have to kill the guards, or anyone for us to escape. Our eyes go wide. And I smile. She sniffles and softly laughs. I go over to her and hug her. She hugs me back, being sure to avoid my neck.
"And you should be able to wake people you pass out on command. Don't worry. I'm here for you." She squeezes me tighter. And starts to float again. And she wipes her face and laughs again. She then skated as fast as she could around the cell. It was much faster than what I had seen before. And she makes an incredible light show with her trials, and impresses me. I go over to a wall and sit to watch her skate.
