After

Colin

I don't know what is going on.

He sent me back into the house and I haven't been able to tell if he is okay.

"You shouldn't have come back in with me,'' I accuse Colm but I can tell that he didn't want to leave me alone.

"He didn't want you out there. I couldn't stay back and let you be here alone,'' he breathes out.

Tala is next to me and she is patting my shoulder comfortingly. I hate this so much. This wasn't supposed to happen. I didn't want this fight that they have started. No one is going to support a war.

"Fuck,' I exclaim exasperatedly.

"he will be fine,'' Colm tries to assure me.

"That is not what I am worried about. He is going to kill them all. He will just make things worse."

Colm sighs. "It is not his fault. Can you just stop this blame game? He is doing what he has to do. They came here and they refused to listen. What did you expect him to do?"
