"Steel."

 

The thunder roared around them.

 

Steel silenced him with a kiss.

 

And Silver knew. Felt it. Sensed it. Read it.

 

Steel let him. Made him.

 

"I didn't betray you. You know that, don't you?"

 

Steel looked at him. "Yes. I know."

 

"But 'They' still think I did. Don't they? Don't they, Steel?"

 

The thunder roared again, drowning out Steel's verbal reply. However, it couldn't down out the telepathy. //Yes.//

 

"What now?"

 

"Now, I get you home."

 

//And then?//

 

//And then I will -//

 

The time Steel didn't send the message telepathically. This time he let the thunder drown him out.

 

Silver let it crash around him.

 

Let it deafen him.

 

Let it envelope him.

 

Let it keep him from hearing.

 

Let it keep him from hearing Steel's silence.

 

And then everything ceased.

 

//I will save you.//

 

//I know.// For the first time ever, Silver lied to his lover.
