Why???? (Kovu)

I shook, gasping breaths between sobs. I didn’t know what to do, having my sister near death. The others helped her while I cried. I hated just sitting here but there was nothing I could do.

I suddenly felt a hand on the back of my head. I jerked my head up to see Seth and Io looking down at me. I sniffed and whipped the tears away from my eyes with the back of my hand and sniffed.

“Please just go,” I said through sobs. Seth sat next to me quietly.

“It’s alright to cry,” he said. I looked at him oddly. Normally, I never balled like this.

Io gave me a big grin. “Don’t worry,” she assured me. “She’ll be okay. She isn’t dead yet.”

I sniffed and smiled back at her.

Since Kara's kinda out of comission here, I'll just continue with Kovu.
