silent breath

thoughts about 72 coudnt get out of Luna's head

she knew she had to find a way to try to cure 72

though it felt like it was virtually impossible, his DNA is already altered, altering it again would seriously harm him

Luna pulled herself out of bed and took out the syringe that held a small amount of the transfusion.

she wanted to destroy it, but she had to know what was in the substance

Luna turned on a different machine, a machine that could read what was in a drug, even a transfusion

she took the smallest amount only leaving the tiniest drop in the syringe, she gasped when the syringe suddenly cracked in her hand. a fake transfusion syringe. Luna felt something suspicious was going on

she inserted the small drug sample into the machine, she watched the screen read: PROCESSING, PLEASE WAIT 23:59

a transfusion sample would take a day, though Luna wanted answers immediately

Luna felt her eyes droop, she scratched behind her head and yawned looking at the time

1:43

it was too late to do a scan on 72's blood, so Luna slipped back under the covers of her bed and fell into a nightmarish sleep

in her dream she was in the examination room, where 72 was. on the floor was covered in blood, Luna gasped as she saw a series of scalpels cover the floor and on the counters, the machines that surrounded the table where 72 laid were all smashed, some on the floor, sparking violently. one screen was on though, on the screen a fresh bloody hand print was the main thing that worried Luna. she gasped when she saw the fright of her life, 72 sat on the floor, curled up in a ball, facing to the wall, on his back were more than 12 cuts, his blood oozed out his back and beside him was a scalpel, before he could turn around the dream faded
--------------------------------------------------
Luna gasped as she forced herself out of the dream before 72 could look at her, she didint want to see anymore

"just a dream, just a dream" Luna repeated herself, breathing heavily.

she looked up at the machine that was scanning the transfusion

PROCESSING, PLEASE WAIT 16:45

Luna got out of bed and slipped on her lab coat, she immediately ran to the examination room.

when she entered she saw a few scientists taking down 72's vital signs, Luna sighed in relief that her nightmare wasn't real

one of the scientists looked up at Luna

"oh good morning Ms Luna" she said

"morning" Luna said walking over to where 72 laid. she smiled to see him still alive.

"how is he?"

"he is just fine, vital signs are stable and healthy"

"what about 62? any signs yet?"

"yes, she might wake up today, there is many movements from her" the scientist said

after the scientists left the room, Luna dragged a stool over to 72 and waited for him to wake up.

a few moments later Luna smiled when she watched 72 stir, she watched him open his alien like eyes and he stared at her

"morning sleepyhead, had a good rest?"

72 nodded, getting up from the table

he placed a hand on his head

"strange sight" 72 said, he is learning more words

"you had a dream then" Luna said

"dream?"

"yes you have one when you sleep"

72 tilted his head

Luna giggled

"ok now we have to go through a few things with you"

Luna tested on 72 senses, 72 didint mind the process with a bunch of wires stuck on him

Luna sighed as she took off the wires, 72 rubbed his arm

"are you ok?"

"coming" he whispered looking down, looking disturbed

"who is?"

suddenly the door opened, Blank entered the room

72 looked away from him

Blank snickered when he saw 72

"scared of me eh?" he said

72 stood silent

Blank walked over to him and tilted his chin up, Luna could tell that 72 wanted to be away from him

72 tensed when he felt Blank touch him, though, he didint react

Blank grinned and pulled away from 72

"hows his senses?"

"they are just fine sir" Luna said

Blank snatched the results sheet from Luna's hands, he scanned through it and gave it back to her. without another word, he left

Luna turned to 72 who was now staring at her, innocence filled his eyes

"how did you know he was coming?" Luna asked

72 was silent for a moment

"i-i felt him"

before Luna could say anything her pager beeped, making 72 jump a little

"easy now, im just being called" Luna said

Luna placed a hand on 72's shoulder he looked at her hand in curiosity

"ill be back, dont move ok?"

Luna quickly left to do her duty, but when she came back into the examination room, 72 was gone

Luna began to panic "what the-"

she jumped when she heard a small clatter, checking to see what it was, Luna's eyes widened of what she saw

72 was on the floor, a drawer was open and in 72's hands was a small container of scalpels

the memory of the nightmare flashed through Luna's mind

"72! STOP!!" Luna shrieked

72 nearly jumped out of his skin at the sound of Luna's voice, the container of scalpels flew out of his hands and spilled open on the floor, the metallic sound echoed the room.

72 screamed and lunged into Luna's arms, Luna held him tightly as she watched the scalpels settle on the floor

"72, what was that for?" Luna scolded at him

72 didint respond, he was breathing very fast on Luna's shoulder, his eyes wide with terror. Luna felt him shaking like a leaf in her arms

"72, answer me!" Luna said

72 rapidly shook his head, his long black curls flying all over the place. suddenly he began to gasp for air

"oh god no"

Luna quickly reached for the oxygen mask, still holding the poor specimen in her arms

72 began to flail as Luna tried to place the mask on him

"72 stop! please!! im trying to help you!!"

tears began to stream down Luna's eyes

"im begging you! PLEASE!"

finally Luna managed to place the mask over 72's face. she watched him begin to calm down as she took his pulse.

"stay with me, stay with me" Luna repeated under her breath

72 looked into Luna's eyes then his eyes slowly closed

Luna pressed the pager on her waist

"i need help, 72 needs attention" Luna called into her radio

Luna watched 72's chest as he breathed into the mask, waiting for assistance

"dont give up on me" he said to him, wiping a tear away
