I jumped up, leaving Aryl to support herself, and Ran to Moonsong. This couldn't be happening! It couldn't! I dragged Moonsong as far away from Rain as I could, leaving others to restrain Rain.
I laid Moonsong down, and Spati rushed to her side, calling out her name. Meanwhile, the world faded out, as I sent wave after wave of healiing light into Moonsong. I wouldn't let her die. Each time I got a little healed, I pulled the dagger a little farther, easing it out of the wound, healing as I went. It must have taken hours, but I didn't care.
When I was finished, I left Moonsong to Spati. "Take care of her. I think she'll be fine."
Turning away from them, I marched up to Rain, dagger in hand. "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?" I yelled at her. "If you want to try murdering someone, try me, see how far you get" I continued in a quieter tone of voice.
Rain looked at me, her expression a little blank. "What do you people want me to do?"
"What do we want?" I asked. "We want to be able to trust the people we're around. But you haven't made an overly good impression on any of us so far. I'd like to like you, but I owe Spati and Moonsong a lot--even my memories--so I refuse to stand by and let you hurt them anymore."
