Heroine Chapter: Stronger together [2/2]

It was only like yesterday that Aki cried for us to give her the soulgear {Blood Feast}. Back then, Aki was the one who lacked power; in just a short time, she has now surpassed me. 

"What if I become nothing more than a burden? I am not like the rest of you! I am not a Descendant and am a first-generation Reaper. I cannot even progress without weapons made by humans! What if another woman better than me appears? What if Honey leaves me?!" I cried in tears. 

My throat began to hurt from the strain of shouting. I didn't even care if anyone heard me. I closed off my link to Honey so he wouldn't notice. The unease I felt slowly grew as the days passed by. Unlike the rest of the Sirens, I had no power by myself. I needed weapons, and I couldn't even use them on my own. 

Panting from exertion, I bore holes into Aki as I waited for her answer. Yet the woman didn't shout back, complain, or berate me. Instead, she pulled me into her embrace and patted my back.
