Ezero Laffan I was silent all night and all morning. When Delta's face rose in the sky I wept silent tears. Somehow there was still more in me to give, though she would never receive it. I wondered what my parents must think, and if they were weeping with me or shaking their heads at their son who seemed to have dropped all logic concerning this girl they would never know. When we slept I was away from the others. My back was turned to them and feet of empty air separated us. I didn't want comfort because if I got it I would break. Building my glass wall was the only thing that would keep me fighting.I imagined the flowing glass - somehow cool despite being in its liquid state - forming around me like a bubble. My shell of glass, my capsule, the only thing holding me together. If I didn't stay separate from everyone I wouldn't be able to last. My heart and throat would be ripped out as soon as my head cleaved off or my body set alight. If anything, it had already happened. I was laying here, bleeding out from multiple wounds that weren't my own. My skin scorched and smoldered, hearkening back to the burnt body of Delta that had been lifted away by a hovercraft. In my hands I clutched the four gems, letting them dig into my palm just for the pain of it. Anything I could inflict on myself would never amount to the agony Delta went through. However, I could inflict that agony on someone else. If we came across another band of people I wouldn't hold back this time. Even after seeing what the tar and fire could do, I was still determined to use it. I had promised myself that I would kill would for my friends, and I very much would. I would embrace the electricity in my chest, the lightning that had marked me from my first day in here and would give me the power to destroy. I would spark and arc, sending scattered flashes of power out in sprays of white light, set to light the whole damn arena alight if I must. So when I spotted a figure in the distance I didn't hesitate, I yanked out my knife and readied myself to smear it with tar and light it. This time I would not be caught off guard, this time I would not shy away from doing real damage. For Basil, for Danny, I would kill. For Delta, I would survive.
