“Doesn’t that hurt?” He eyed the wound on the blond’s chest, gently lifting a finger to prod at the area around the wound. He ripped a part of his hood off, knowing that Summer would have wanted him to care for his sister even if she wasn’t exactly his sister.

Red gulped, licking his lips before leaning back to stare into 3Ds’s eyes.

The face of his sister looked at him, her long treasured hair having long been cut jagged and short. He raised his arm, softly running his fingers through her hair as he thought about how much Yang had done for him in the past.

How she sang him lullabies when he couldn’t sleep. When she beat the bullies who were picking on him. When she held him whenever he felt miserable. How she loved him.

Slowly, her image overlapped 3Ds’ and with teary eyes he sniffled, hurling himself at the image of his sister as he sobbed.

“Wake me up, Yang, please! I-I don’t want to be in this nightmare anymore… Wake me up, make it stop!”

A single red eye gazed down at the boy against her chest, the other a deep purple with a cross pupil that looked onward into some unseen horizon. How symbolic – probably nothing, though.

Her arms wrapped around the trembling boy, taking a shaky breath as she prepared herself. She… wouldn’t normally do this. Heck, 3D wasn’t even good at singing. She’d try. For him ;; even if she could never be Yang.

“ When the days turn dark,

and we start to fall,

I will pick you up and we will fix it all… ”
