You are nothing but a burden, Cassandra. You are nothing but dead weight.
That damned cursed watch kept whispering in the back of my mind, and i just…couldn’t take it anymore. I don’t even remember what we were talking about, but I remember cutting my fiancé, Kaz, off.
“Just admit it, Kaz. I’m a burden. I just take up space, and put a mental weight on people because I overthink so much. I make people worry.”
He pulled me closer, his voice low, almost hurt I would think such a thing. “You will never be a burden. You help me simply by existing, you’re the opposite of a burden. And you can hold your own in a fight better than any of us. I fucking love you, Cass-”
“Don’t touch me…” I remember brushing his hand off and starting to get up.
“Wait-! You’re not a fucking burden, darling-”
“Don’t lie to me, Kaz. All I do is weigh you guys down. All I do is slow you down. I’m the reason Sebastian got into this mess. Im the reason everyone nearly died. I’m not good enough for this place.”
“I’m not fucking lying! Why can’t you see that? Over and over again, you say that you’re not good enough and you are. You’re enough. It doesn’t matter what you might’ve done, you’re still one of us!”
“Because I keep proving my point.”
“You haven’t proven a damn thing other than the fact that you’re the love of my life. Please, don’t leave…”
“I…I have to, Kaz. At least just for a little bit. Just… I need to clear my head, since I overthink so much.”
“…O-okay. Just…don’t do anything stupid…”
“I don’t know if I’ll be back, actually. Tell the others. Don’t try to follow me…”
…And with that, I left Lord Rezik’s palace. Left the kingdom of Ouros, and I became a vessel for the dark power that was inside the watch.
I’ve made my choice.
