'WHAT ON EARTH WERE YOU THINKING?'
'Aurelia, I...'
'NOT ONLY DID YOU TWO RISK YOUR OWN LIVES, BUT YOU ALSO RISKED FALCON'S...AND MINE...'
'Aurelia, we are...'
'I THOUGHT YOU WERE SMARTER THAN THIS...DID YOU SERIOUSLY THINK THEY WERE GOING TO COME BACK THIS WAY? DO YOU?'
'N...no...'
'HOW COULD YOU BE SO RECKLESS...'
A tear slipped down Aurelia's eyes and buried itself in her shirt. 'Neptune was my friend too, Zue. I have also missed him a lot. And Cyan was Falcon's friend, did you see him coming down here?' She was crying now, her tears leaving streaks in the grime on her face. 'Coming after Ignis...for the love of God...'
Zue and Shayma weren't meeting her eyes. They were crying too, silently. Falcon knew they must be feeling terrible. Cyan's name had sent a pang of pain in his chest; he felt moisture seeping into his eyes and turned away.
'I'm so sorry, Aurelia...' Zue sobbed.
