  {3rd Person POV}

  'Shit, it really hurts' Modred thinks to herself while Jaune spreads the cream on her bruises.

  She then winced when he pressed his fingers a little to hard on the bruises, she wao pin but there’s no way she is going to look weak in front of him, it's bad enough that she lost the fight pretty fug spectacurly against a kid that only fighting experieh Aura was with a single grimm! She had killed plenty of grimm before whenever went with her dad to go on a hunting trip.

  It usually suprised the rest of the family whenever she even agreed to join her father but sometimes she had to know when it's time to fight with her dad or when it's time to reel in her anger so she accumute more experience for her future as a huntress.

  "I... I'm sorry Modred." Jauold her as he get behind her and start to apply the cream on her bruises on her back from being unched into the cave walls so hard that she broke her Aura.

  'This kid... didn't I told him to stop?" Mordred thinks to herself.

  She then turned her head to him and gred at him "how many times do I have to tell you Jau's a fug fight! Of course there will be injuries!" Even though she is mad at him for even pityi least he cared, cause she knows that if it were any other kid for example one of her cssmates that had beatehey would fug gloat about it and would not even think to help her patch up.

  "Okay...." Jau out a sigh and finished applying the cream on her back. "There... I'm done... is there ahat hurts?"

  She feel her ribs throbs in pain because she may had lied about the extent of her injuries from Jaune, she know what a bruised ribs feels like and this ain't it, this is at the very least some crack ribs especially on her left side.

  How the fuck does Jaune mao fake beihy for 2 weeks is beyond her because right now all she want to do is y down on a bed and just sleep with only some crack ribs let alone broken ribs and a broken arm including got knows whatever happeo his muscles...

  She shivered as she remember the feeling on her fingers when she poked Jaune's ribs to check it a couple of weeks ago.

  "Nah, there's no more injuries..." Modred Lied to him before she then tried to stand up, but her legs buckled from her ow, she would had fall face first on the ground if not for jaug her. "Fuck off... I stand on my own.."

  She then grabbed Jaune's shoulder and to try and use it to pull herself up on her feet. "Look.. o worry about me... I'm more worried about you.... how does it feel fighting with Aura for the first time? That time with the grimm doesn't t because I said so." She smirked at him before her smirks fell as she look at the ground and think of how weak she loht now. "And... I'm sorry fiving you a good fight... I am.. its... its kinda shameful that I lost to you... I am a prodigy.. my teachers said so.. dad and even mom said so.. dad also told me that I was eveer than Artoria when she was my age..."

  She then see his eyes looked over her with worry and frankly more love than any of her family because she knows how difficult she is and she doesn't bme the rest of her family to not make her their favorite.

  Jauhen smiled at her with so much love that she could choke on it and that alone only make it hurt more. "Why would you be ashamed? You were incredible..."

  His soft and loving voice reached her ears and she feel her eyes start to wetten. "I'm not incredible, Jaune.... I lost badly... you didn't even tried to beat me did you! Don't lie to me!" She tried to blink back her tears to make it go away but it only make it worse.

  She knows that he held back because a split sed before the final csh she saw a glimpse of his Reinfort and saw how dimmed the circuits was and the small amount of Circuits on him was because he held back, it was much different from the st time Jaune showed her his reinfort.

  "Modred... i-" she cut him off with a shake of her head.

  "Stop it Jaune! Just say it! I'm weak aren't I?! That you are disappoi me right!? How am I supposed to protect you if I'm this weak Jaune!? I was supposed to be the ohat protect you! I am older! More trained! I'm y sister! I was supposed to be the one you lean on! Not whatever the fuck this is!" Modred shouted at Jaune as she let go of him only for her to fall on the ground while holding herself back from ht bawling her eyes out.

  Her body starts to shake before her eyes widen when she felt a palm on her hair, she then look up and see Jaune smiled at her before he croud hold her face. "Don't say that about yourself Mordred... you are the best sister I could have ever asked for... you think Artoria would let me train myself? Would Saphron cover for me whenever I'm gone for too long? Would Jeaeach me about Aura? Hell.. would any of them help me hide my injuries? No.. but you did Mordred.. you did all of that and more... not because you don't care about me Morded... but because you did all of that because you love me too much to not let me achieve my dream.. and for that you are the best Big sister for me, Mordred... on my honor as an Arc i speak truly."

  Mordred stayed silent for a few sed before a drop of tear run down her face... and another.. another.. and more tears starts to run down from her fatil she start to sob and cried.

  'He said it... on his honor as an Arc... I 't believe he said it...' she cried even harder.

  She the Jaune ed his arms around her gently a her on his shoulder.

  "Shuuush... shush... let it all out, Mordred.. it's alright.. I'm here... just let it all out..." he whispered lovingly into her ears and she buries fa his shoulder.

  "Jaune! Do you knoorried I was when you came back that night!? You look like you were about to die!? I was so scared Jaune! So Scared! I don't want you to die, Jaune! I was supposed to be with you that night!" Mordred shouted at him while she balls her eyes out ad the damage inside of her heart finally break.

  Jauarted to rub her back to calm her down. "You didn't know Mordred... its not your fault.. I would never bme you for it Mordred..."

  "I don't care that I don't know Jaune! I'm y sister! I should had known! I'm the worst!" She then bite Jaune's shoulder and start to pummel her fist on Jaune's chest not notig that Jaune had actively turn off his Aura so she doesn't hurt herself.

  "You're not the worst Mordred.. never was.. and never will be.." he then winced as Mordred teeth break through skin.

  Mordred bite harder ahe metallic taste of Jaune's blood oongue. "What..." she then pull her head away from Jaune ahat the the left top side of Jaune's shirt is wet with blood. "Jaune... why..."

  Jaune tio look at her with that eyes so full of love that she wonders if he could ever look someoh hate. "Why? I don't want you to get hurt, Mordred...."

  "But I.... bu-" He cut her off by shaking his head.

  "No buts... I would rather it be me that get hurt rather than you, Mordred... you're maybe my Big Sister but I'm also your little brother.. I won't let you hurt yourself." He speaks to her so softly that that his words only break his heart.

  Her eyes widen before she start to sniffles and rub her eyes with the back of her arm. "I'm sorry Jaune... I'm Sorry..."

  She heard Jaune sighs before she feels his arms ed around her again.

  ".. don't cry... don't you want to train with me today? I po experiment with my Aura ter.. but I 't do it without you, Mordred... so don't cry for me okay?"

  She him and wipe her face by rubbing her fa his shirt before she look at him with her eyes red fr. "Okay... but I expect you to show me somethiing okay? If not.. well I guess you'll disappoint me..." she tried to give as much bravado as she but it even sound too fake in her own ears because she knows that she had look weak infront of her little brother.

  "Don't worry Mordred.. there's no way I would disappoint the great Mordred Arc... cause if I do, we both know that you'll beat me up.."

  "... you betcha."
