All the monsters inside our heads - Kyle

It had been a hell for both Abigal and him. First finding Mary, trying to put the pieces of a deleted past together was impossible. Especially because Kyle's mental immunity had proven to be the worst - Getting a memory back after it had been removed wasnt going to happen on it's own. And with all the things that had happened with the girls and Lion. Well, Kyle looked older these days. Struggling with all that and to top it off, his mind was still broken, Minerva's ghost haunting him, taunting him at anything, almost making him tick off at nothing. He had been out more, mostly to not end up yelling at Abigal over silly things, he would feel good in the moment, but it would just worsen things, if they could get any worse.
He had raised his voice at Karmena in frustration as she had presented her leg and hand, and it took all his might and Amary's pleading for him to not just strap her to a chair till she had healed properly. She had explained the recent happenings - Or the past past ones, and Kyle had felt this overwhelming rage at hearing what had happened to his daughter. Hadnt he known how fondly the two girls had been of his future self, he could have scolded them till their ears fell off. Instead he thanked them and left, going out to look for his daughter.
He stepped outside and caught her scent instantly as he marched towards her. But as soon as he saw him, all anger calmed and was replaced with sorrow. He sat down next to her and sighed hurtfully as he looked her in the eyes, "Maybe it's time to go back to your own time, sweetheart," he then just replied before he grabbed her hand and squeezed it tightly, "She told me everything I needed to know," he said, the words stung, it pained his heart so much to even think about the horror that his daughter had to go through. He wasnt even sure if he could tell Abigal without breaking down. But he was calm now, he had to be for her. "I love you, and I'm so thankful that you've come to see us, but... As your father, it's concerning that all this has happened to you in just a few weeks..." - "Makes me feel like I'm already failing at being a parent. And I already failed once... I don't want to fail twice," he then admitted, not taking his eyes of her. But then he realized what he had said and shook his head, "And dont you dare apologize for things that you had no control over, young lady," he said before she could answer.
