I turned to Pegasus, knife in hand, breathing heavily. We looked at each other in a way we never had before. I now understood him, and he no longer understood me without the glint of hatred in my eyes. I'd never seen him so afraid.
The remaining adrenalin kept me from feeling the pain in my arm or back as I knelt down in front of him. "Are you alright?" I asked in a monotone voice.
"N... no..." he said, flinching as I laid my hand on his arm. I could nearly feel his heartbeat pulsing rapidly, his body heat fading.
I pulled the hem of my top up and ripped a piece off the shirt underneath, placing it next to his face. He took his hand away and allowed me to set it there to momentarily help stop the blood flow.
"Can you get up?"
I got no reply. He had faded out. Just as I began to debate if I could carry him down the stairs, the guards burst through the door. "Mr. Pegasus, we heard some commotion up here and—" What did they see? Me, with blood on my clothes and a knife in my hand, and Pegasus collapsed and bleeding.
For the second time that day, I was thrown to the ground.
