Everto blinked as Marine's eyes flickered open. His eyes showed concern, but once she regained consciousness he quickly wiped his features from all emotion.
"Are you okay?" He asked, his voice a little cold, though lacking in its usual cruelness. It was almost..a nice sort of voice, when it wasn't cold or cruel.

"I'm fine.My back stings but other than that I'm good to go."she replied.Marine hoped that he would not bring up the question about her powers he had asked at the cliffs.
"Why IS my back stinging and burning?!"She asked in an anxious way.She noticed Evertos voice was almost nice.She also remembered that her eyes were white.Like the ones in her dream.They were hers,not Evertos.That was a relief.

"You got burnt." explained Everto, his voice now losing almost all of it's coldness. He neglected to mention that it was him who had almost killed her.

Everto diverted his eyes. He felt guilty, he had almost killed this girl and now he wasn't telling her?
Anger flared up inside Everto, but not like at the lake. This anger was at himself. How could he feel concerned for this girl? She was nothing! But he couldn't help but feel guilt for not telling her, so he did.
His voice almost a whisper, Everto recounted to her what had happened by the Lake, about him losing his temper, and about the boy coming to help. Finally, he finished in a voice so low only Marine would have heard it: "I burnt you. It was me. I almost killed you."

Marine stared blankly at him.She couldn't believe what she heard."You.....you did that?" she asked."I never knew anyone COULD do that.That was really cool.Even if one hit me I deserved it.I shouldn't have slapped you."she smiled

Everto looked up. "Even so...I could have killed you." He said weakly, now glaring at the hair that dared fall into his eyes and blowing out of them, "Would you say you deserved that?"

Marine couldn't find anything to say.The only thing she could think about was dying.It looked so harmless.But then she remembered:Never play with fire.One single tear dropped down her cheek,hoping Everto didn't notice it,she wiped it off.

Everto noticed Marine wipe a tear away. He averted his eyes, so that he didn't have to see if there were any more. He didn't like to see people crying. Somehow it reminded him of something, before all this. When he had a family.

Marine saw Everto look away as if to look into the past.She guessed"You don't have a family do you?I have one but my stepfather sits around watching T.V.I don't even count him as a father."
