LU 224 - Dr. Thornberry 59

I woke up in the middle of the night, unable to sleep after the events of the past day. I sat up and stared at Boulty, almost feeling bad for what I had done to him. I really needed some fresh air. I leaned over Space and stared at him for a moment; I should be back within the night.
Walking out of the house I sighed, I should probably visit Frezz; I need to break things off with him. I went over as fast as I could and walked into... the cold. I yelled out into the house and went around the rooms but there was nothing. It was as if the house was abandoned. The flowers around Hallthor's bed were dead, and there were cobwebs in the corners. Where the hell have they been? 
Hallthorr might know. I mean, he's been here while I've been gone, so he has to have seen Frezz somewhere right? I destroyed that stupid skulk in the living room and left for the beehive. 
Upon knocking on the door of the large hive, Hallthorr answered the door.. without a helmet. I backed up a few steps, he'd had that thing on for so long I'd forgotten what he'd originally looked like. Soft brown hair and blueish eyes- if I was still in the kidnapping business, he looks like a prime target, no wonder why I picked him. 
We quickly caught up with each other, Hallthorr saying he forced the helmet off himself, and explaining how he got out of the lab while walking me around his home. I gave him a brief rundown on my injuries, saying no more than that I got into a slight accident. 
"Have you seen Frezz around recently by the way?"
He shook his head, also telling me that Frezz hadn't even come and got him from the lab. That bastard, I could've sworn I left him a note in the old house. I also got some of his opinions on Frezz, which seemed to be neutral, but I was surprised to hear Hallthorr wasn't as happy with the skulk in his arm as I had initially thought. 
"Yeah man, so I was thinking of cutting off my ties with Frezz.. And um- possibly living with Space."
There was no shock in Hallthorr's face, and he only nodded, looking at me as if he expected this day to come. After a bit more small talk, I hugged the little dude and went on my way back to Frezz's place. I'd wait for him there until he came back.
The sun had started rising by the time we got there and I thought back to how I watched it with him on the day we moved in. Tears started forming in my eyes but I quickly wiped them away. 
"All for saying he'd start a new town with me huh? What has he done for me? Leave? Abandon me and our child? He wouldn't have helped anyway. All he would've done is break down what I've already built. It's time I gain power again, and it's obvious I can't do that with Frezz."
