Moving on....

Nico woke up in the infirmary in a cold sweat. His mind was trying to come to terms with what he had witnessed on that horrible day. He was trying to rationalize what happened, but he was just making excuses. Nico was yet again changed by the events of what happened.

"Yo, Nico, you alright?" It was Xeno! " Nico remembered that he was hurt pretty badly during the raid and couldn't move, but here he was sipping tea and doing dandy.

"You were way worse off than I was," Nico chuckled and smiled at Xeno, no matter the situation Xeno always seemed to know how to cheer him up.

"Well…i don't know what we're going to do man…" Xeno was both distant, and so close at the same time. But at this very moment he had never felt so far away.

"I'll tell you what!, I'm going to find Crystallos and Kick his ass!", Nico stood up and immediately suffered for it. All of the bones in his body felt like they broke.

"HAHA!" Xeno was laughing at Nico laying on the ground in pain.

"Pain isn't funny Xeno!" Nico was on the ground yelling at his friend.

"I'll only know when it happens to me!", Xeno was making fun of the downed Nico.

Nico was glad that after what he had let happen to Samantha he could still smile. Nico vowed in his heart to do right to Samantha's dying wish. That wish was…..TO SAVE CRYSTALLOS'S HEART!
