Before I knew what had happened, I was in my own room staring up at the ceiling. She said...She said she hated me. It was clear she was doing this to push me away. But...that didn't change the fact she said that to me. Just hearing her say it once to me was enough to hurt. But she said it so many times. I could feel tears rolling down my cheeks. I don't want to give up, but I don't know what to do. She will not even let me be close to her. She is saying hurtful things to push me away from her. It wasn't like I didn't understand why she was doing this.
Master...
Out of nowhere the door to my room quickly open and Sion ran inside, "Nemo! Where is Sara?" I couldn't help but look lost at her, "She should be in her room." she shook her head, "She not there. Also, someone broke into my lab." What? "I think she may have taken a poison from it." No...is she planning on? Was this why she said those things to me? Because if I had been there, I would have stopped her. I am clearly a failure as a Servant. I should be protecting her from herself. Me and Sion ran different ways down the hallways. I sent out a warning to the whole Nemo series to find master right away. How did things come to this?
"Captain, I saw master heading to the cargo hold." One of the Marine told me. "Block off this hallway. I am going after Master. Let the others know." I ran as fast as I could. I can't let her do this. She was so desperate to go this far... She really has given up. I found her in the back of the Cargo hold opening a bottle. It was right there in her hand. "Master Stop!" She looked surprised by my voice. She stared toward me. "Why are you here?" She plainly asked me. "You really think I would let you do this?"
"Why? you should hate me..." she started to cry again. It was clear she didn't mean anything she said to me than. She had only said it to push me away. "..." I watched as we just stood there staring at each other. No matter what I have to get the bottle out of her hand. "Why? Why? Can't just you just leave me alone?" She sobbed I took a step toward her slowly. she wasn't safe to herself. She had given up a long time ago. Living was too painful to her. That is why...she kept on doing this to herself. I understood now...
I slowly took the bottle out of her hand it threw it away from her. "Nemo...Nemo..." She sobbed as I hugged her. "It's alright...I know you didn't mean anything you said to me." I whispered to her. She sobbed hugging onto me. I didn't let go of her. Right now, more than anything she needs support. After she calmed here a bit I took her to see Nurse. Her arm was cut up a bit from when she stole the bottle from sion lab. She fixed up her arm. She had a blank look on her face the whole time. "Master...how do you feel?" Nurse lightly asked her. "...I feel hungry." We both felt a bit relieved. It had been a bit sense she had eaten anything. "I'm sure we can do something about that."
I took hold of her hand and led her to the Mess Hall. It was kind of weird how untalkative she is now. But this is truly how she is. "Captain! Master! Welcome!" Baker quickly greeted us. She quickly when ahead to make some food up. She still had a blank look across her face. I couldn't tell what she was thinking. I lightly brushed some hair behind her ear. She looked at me with a light blush on her face I did the same. We just stared at each other. "Nemo..." I gave her a soft smile. Nurse had warned me to take it easy with her. She wasn't sure what to do with herself now. That I had stopped her from ending her life. She said most likely I was being used as a link to keep her going.
So... was that Sion plan from the start? To try to make her heart heal from having a servant always close by. I wasn't really sure myself. But I know she still isn't in a great place. She needs time.
"Most likely your time you spend her with...is what been helping the most. That's why she tried to cut ties with you." Nurse explained to me. "So that's why she..."
"Yes. without a doubt...she feels safe when you are near her." I understood that. from how she would react. "Even more so when you would touch her in some way." Why she felt safe was because it was something she wasn't used too. I softly brushed a finger against her cheek. It only made her blush more at me. "Umm..." she clearly couldn't even get any words out of her mouth. As we both heard a loud bang on the table. "Sorry to interrupt, Captain. ~" Baker said sounding annoyed. "Uh...it's fine." She had brought the food to us. She glared at me. "Master please eat as much as you like. I can always make more." She quietly started eating trying to ignore the whole thing that had happened. I frowned at baker. She was still standing there. "...Maybe you should keep your hands to yourself here, Captain." Was she warning me? She was clearly not happy with me. Baker wouldn't leave as she watched Master eat. I felt a bit annoyed she stayed the whole time. After Master ate her fill, I took her back to her room. I quickly took hold of her face and looked it over, "uh Nemo?" I moved her face side to side. She looked puzzled at me. "What are you doing?" I sighed and pressed my forehead against her. "I can't help it..." I whispered to her. "Huh?"
"I was so scared. So scared...you would really..."
"Nemo..." I was still scared. To find her in that way. To find her trying to kill herself. I couldn't help myself for still feel fearful. It wasn't like she could just say she was alright. Because she clearly wasn't. "...you don't hate me? I said horrible things to you..."
"No. No I can't."
"But..."
"I know why you did what you did." She tried to push me away. She clearly knew what Sion had planned for Me and her. She wanted to use me to help heal her heart. But she was still scared. So much so...that she tried to break the bond we started to have. I guess it was somewhat healing her the time we had together but at the same time it was scaring her. "You should hate me." She tried to pull away from me. But I would let her. I quickly grabbed onto her arm holding her in place. "I told you I can't." I whispered to her staring at her face. "..." She frowned at me. I wouldn't let her push me away. "Nemo..." I pulled her into a hug. "I want to help you." I whispered to her. "Please...don't push me away, Sara." "Please..."
"But I'm..."
"I don't care." You aren't horrible. You just haven't had a great life is all. That's why no matter what I want to stay by your side.
