Scarlet took the fez and pen from Bruno.

"Uh, thanks."

Only I would know.

Her face twitched. Memories were bubbling to the surface. She tried to quash them, but they were persistent. Scarlet locked down her body, hoping it wouldn't show the others.

''I got her shot. It's my fault. I lost the last thing I cared about, because I tried to save myself. I don't deserve to be here, the only time I fought I destroyed my life.''

Her hand shaking, She started to write something.

''Rouge, I'm sorry. I wasn't able to help you, not when it mattered. Instead, I caused you harm as soon as I could be there for you.''

She finished writing.

If I can't make the world better for you, I'll die trying.

Looking at what she wrote, she saw the words "One life, for another."

Scarlet folded the paper and placed it in the fez, before holding it out for the next person. A tear rolled down her cheek.
