[i]Pan suddenly jerks her head away and shuts her eyes.[/i]
"M-My freind was going to die....Chaos isn't meant for healing, but I tried anyway. He's fine and lived, but...me? The chaos has almost fully consumed me now.... I can see fear, sorrow, guilt, and anger like they're physical things. I hear constant voices whispering into my ear and I don't know what they're saying."

Cannon was speechless. His mouth went dry. Not knowing what to say he simply pulled her into a hug, hoping that would at least comfort her slightly. "You're not dead yet," he finally forced out, "and it'll be a cold day in haran when I let you go without a fight. I swear if there's a way to make it out alive, we will find it." He planted a small kiss on her forehead.
-
[i]Pan hugs back like her life depends on it and cries into your shoulder.[/i] "Make them stop!"
-
Cannon dosent know what to do so he just holds her, gently stroking her hair.
-
[i]Pan sobs for what feels like hours before finally stopping.[/i]
-
Cannon barely keeps himself from crying as well, forcing those emotions down. "You're not alone, Pan. Remember that. I've seen them too. You'll be alright." He continues to hold her.
-
[i]Pan sniffles a little before speaking with a quiet and hoarse voice.[/i] "Cannon, please don't leave me. Don't leave me when I'm so close to death. I don't want to die alone."
-
"You aren't going to die. I've lost enough people as it is. I'm not losing you too. We will find a way to save you. I swear it on my honour as one of the Mando'ade." He lets out a shakey breath, his hands shaking.
-
[i]Pan shakes her head.[/i] "You shouldn't make promises you can't keep."
-
"I don't."
-
[i]Pan weakly hits you on the chest.[/i] "You don't understand! We should spend the little time we have enjoying eachother. We shouldn't look around for something that will save me because it doesn't exist."
-
Cannon dosent respond, slowly standing and lifting her up. "End simulation." The simulation room dissolves away and Cannon makes his way over to where the real Pan is. A small smile forming on his face as he hugs her.
-
[i]Pan hugs back, but with little enthusiasm.[/i] "I-I'm sorry. I'm probably just bringing you down."
-
"No. Your not." Then taking a step back he smiles. "Would milady like to get something to eat? I happen to know the cafe near by has some particularly good food this time of day." He asks, trying to at least make her smile.
-
[i]Pan has a very weak smile as she nods.[/i] "S-Sounds good, Cannon."
-
He offers her his hand, giving her a reassuring smile.
-
[i]She takes his hand with a slight giggle.[/i] "Because of my...situation...you'll have to show me the way."
-
"Don't worry, ma'am. I'm an excellent navigator. Top of my class." He jokes, squeezing her hand reassuringly. And they set off. [spoiler]I'd say that's a good end.[/spoiler]
-
[i]Pan laughs genuinly.[/i] "You're awesome!" [spoiler]End.[/spoiler]
