Ch. 7: White Bandage (MOON)
What…
I slowly opened my eyes, and they were filled with light.
I…that’s right, I was chasing the necklace and went outside the bubble. And then what? Where’s the necklace…?
I looked around, and my eyes focused on a single point.
Eh?
In the bed next to mine lay Orion, his face pale.
I was filled with disbelief as I beheld his complexion, appearing near death.
OO: “Ori…on…?”
My voice was hoarse as I called his name, then a man rushed over to me.
Doctor: “Have you woken up?”
OO: “What happened…to Orion?”
Doctor: “…He saved you, after you went outside the bubble. You were already at death’s door… if you didn’t receive the proper power right away, you would die. Lord Orion cut his own throat and gave you his blood…”
Eh…What does…that mean?
The world grew dark.
Orion: “OO…don’t go…”
I heard Orion call my name as he talked in his sleep.
OO: “Orion…”
The white bandage around Orion’s neck was bright as I looked at it.
