(Hello.)
WInter gently touched Kula on the shoulder. "I know Shiloh's all you have left. She won't kill Shiloh. I promise you, she can't. There are things that stand in her way. Mainly, Elias and Essar. Another force of troopers would be the only thing that could stop them. And, they wouldn't last long against angry wookies. I promise you that Shiloh will come back to us in one piece. Me, I don't know…" Winter softly said. "I'm hurt, and hurt pretty bad. I know I've lost some blood, but that's ok. I've know what blood loss is like. It's fine. It just feels colder, it doesn't bother me. I'm fine. I'll live… I hope… I'm just standing here, slowly bleeding, it'll stop, soon. When I move, it feels like I'm being stabbed with a poisoned dagger. But, I would get stabbed a thousand time, over, just to see that you and everyone I care for lives, and they are safe. I would go to the ends of the galaxy for this little ragtag family I've created. I would die for them, and you… I know that if I don't get treated for this and soon, I'll die. If I die, I know that it will all be worth it. For everything…" Winter smiled. She had said all that had needed to be said. She glared at Admiral Aquare. "Did you hear that? I'm not scared of death. I faced it many times, and while I was alone. These struggles, have made me stronger than you'll ever be…" Winter ran her finger across Admiral Aquare's face, leaving a trail of ice. "It burns doesn't it? It pricks your skin, bites your flesh. I love it. Every. Single. Thing. It's home to me. It's love. I hope what it means to me, is harmful to you. I hope your blood freezes in your vein, your mind because like a block of ice, and your face freeze in agony. It would bring me joy…" Winter's side began to burn up more, and she felt increasingly weak. She knew she was fading. She smiled though. Just the thought of saving her makeshift family was enough.
