"Triskix what is that on your arm?" I asked.
"It's just scaring. I can't fix it. But they don't hurt. I'm fine. I can bare it......" I said quickly. "I can handle this. I can deal with it. I will deal with it for the sake of the old Organization. I..... will.......do anything to achieve that goal so things can go back to normal....as if Sora never came. It will be great. "
Then something happened that I don’t think that I had ever seen before, at least not from Triskix. From what it looked like he was… crying! I didn’t really know what to say, so I did the only thing that a friend could do, stay there quietly and listen until he got everything off his chest he needed to.
“Triskix you maybe second in command, but above that you are one of my best friends. Best friends don’t let others get hurt. And I know that once you achieved your goal everything will be great! So I pledge… that I will also do anything I can to achieve that goal, for that was my goal too Triskix.” I looked down at my feet trying not to have any more water works around here.
Changing the direction of the conversation I looked back over to Triskix putting back on my usual happy smile.
“You are not doing it alone, and that is final, Fire Boy. You maybe the second in command, but I know where all the high-pressured water hoes are!” A mischievous smiled played across my face when memories of a brown haired, golden eye’s boy played in my mind. ‘Xeros…’ I could faintly hear someone say.
“Anyway,” standing up I crossed my arms and tried to put on my best ‘mad’, here-comes-lecture-face. Even though, I don’t think I was ever good at doing the mad look. T.T
“Remember when all of us went up to see the leader together?” I saw Triskix give a small-irritated nod. “I remember when we were in there you seemed to be holding your arm a lot. So just remember this, I am watching you Fire boy! If it looks like our dear sweet leader is pulling some unnecessary strings on you, I swear on the full moon, that I will find Xaldin load him up with beans and stick them in a Very Bright closet and lock the doors and close the air vents!” I thought I saw a small smirk, but I may have been just the lighting. Though I hoped it would brighten up the mood I hated seeing anyone sad.
“But seriously Triskix, you are far better then him. I can’t just sit here and watch you suffer, I will not do that. I had to watch silently as Saix was slowly tortured and betrayed by someone he trusted. I will not to that again. You are strong Triskix, but even Joan of Arc couldn’t face everyone alone.” Walking over to Triskix’s door to make sure that it was locked. I turned back around and smiled at Triskix.
“So if you need anything let us know, I will let you rest and tell you if anything happens. Thanks for the talk Tris—Triskix.” And a short good-bye I made a portal back to where Lexian, Xemmsur and Healx are. Hoping that maybe I could catch a few pointers from Healx on healing. Since I can close wounds with the light maybe I can kick it up a notch and really heal, and then when things like this happen and no one is around I could help. Things to look forward to.

I don't want to get to the end of my life
and find that I lived just the length of it.
I want to have lived the width of it as well.
