Peter’s POV

This is wrong.

Nathan is dead, has been dead for almost a year.

All I can do is stare listlessly at the man lying unconscious on my couch, the man I’d thought was my brother all this time. The man I cared about, confided in, laughed with, poured my heart out to…it was all a lie.

I know should feel sorrow, should feel anger, hatred, anything…

But all I feel is hollow.

All I can do is sit here on my floor and lean my head against the wall, asking myself…

How? How could I not have noticed that my brother wasn’t my brother?

I look at the still form draped upon my sofa as a small moan reaches my ears.

This man is a killer, a heartless killer who has done nothing but terrorize my family and friends. He’s tried to kill me on more than one occasion and succeeded on some.

Why would this monster pose as my brother all this time, and then suddenly lose it now?

I don’t know what to think anymore, and it doesn’t look like Sylar is going to be conscious anytime soon for me to get some answers.

I have to know. I need to understand why.

A small sound draws my attention back to my unexpected guest. Was that a…whimper?

I debate with myself momentarily, but it isn’t hard to make a decision.

It’s time that I delved into the mind of my rival. Maybe then I can get some of my answers.
