You're My Only Hope

She shook her head.  [color=#68c4e8]"Nothing missing at the moment.  But I do get... flashes sometimes.  Knowledge or memories that aren't mine that come forth and it can be a bit overwhelming in the moment."[/color]  She wasn't sure whether or not it was intentional that they came forth in such a way, but she suspected not.  [color=#68c4e8]"I think we're still working through how to communicate with each other now that they're no longer a silent observer."[/color]

But when Anders asked when Andoral wanted, Bethany suddenly found herself being pushed aside.  It was as if someone had grabbed her and shoved her beneath a freezing sea, leaving her struggling to swim back to the surface.

Outwardly, her posture changed, and suddenly she appeared as if she was uncomfortable in her own skin, as if her body was suddenly alien to her and didn't quite fit.  Her eyes glazed over, glowing as Andoral's spoke through her.  [color=#e82a1f]"I want to be whole and free.  I am Unity, I should not be fractured so."[/color]

Fear pulsed through her, before she set it aside and let determination fill her in its stead.  Andoral wouldn't listen to someone who showed weakness, and if she showed it now she risked losing herself to them.  [color=#68c4e8]This is my body, you do not get to be in control without my express permission.  Now step back or I will make you.[/color]

Andoral seemed to regard her for a long moment, as if decided whether or not to break the tenuous peace they'd come to in their first confrontation, before relinquishing control of her body back to her.

Bethany came back to herself with a gasp, relieved she'd managed to stand her ground against the shard once more.  [color=#68c4e8]"Sorry.  They don't usually do that."[/color]
