Retreat

[Ariel]

Ariel found all of this to be both fascinating and frightening. The fascination in wanting to learn more outweighed most of the fear as she moved on to her next question, "Who's Kara?"

[Ayen]

"Who's Kara?"

Tori and the others were taken aback by that question before they remembered that Ariel had never met Kara as herself and only knew her as Superwoman.

“I'm sorry. I meant Superwoman. You remember her of course. I kinda shared her body when we both came back from the dead.”

“That is so hot.”

“...”

“...”

“...”

“...”

“Oh like I'm the only one thinking it!”

[Ariel]

"How can I forget?" Ariel remembered that day, it was a day of nightmares for her. She didn't know Superwoman that well but she did lose someone important to her that day. Tori. Tori was rendered into ash right in front of her eyes and she had thought she would never see her again. But that wasn't the case and it made her so happy to see Tori again. So happy that the fear of losing Tori for good never truly left her. Ariel's eyes looked down at her feet as she rubbed her hands awkwardly.

[Ayen]

"How can I forget?"

“Hey.”

Tori stepped up to Ariel and gently took her hands into her own while looking into her eyes.

“I'm not going anywhere. All right? I'm going to stay right here.”
