Chapter 6: Complications part 2

Sedatives are not really going to help...

=I walk over to him=

The only way I would know is to give him some anesthesia to knock him out. Sleep it off.

(Dormii)
=i nod=
Do it.

=I search around for a canister of Anesthesia=

Where...

=I find it=

Ah..

=I hook it up to a tube=

You might want to hold him down.

(Lana)
What do you think I'm doing?

(Dormii)
I'll help.

=i grab onto Justin and hold him down as well=

Cooooookies!

(He looks to the open door and sighs)

Even though I am free

(He looks back up)

I can't share this with you

(He takes out the note and reads it)
(Over and Over again)

Wheres my cookie?

=I put the mask on Justin and open the tube=

Go to sleep...

=we both keep a hold of Justin as the anesthesia takes hold=

=As the Anesthesia puts him to sleep I take the mask off=

Just another day at the office...

=we let go=

(Dormii)
Heh. So what now? Do we just keep him here for now?

(Lana)
Sounds good to me.

=I look at Lana=

It was nice to meet you.. Miss... Lana..

=I turn to walk out=

=After finishing the drink, I head over to the food are=

Jesus, they weren't kidding. They've got everything!

=I help myself to a big platter of food, and sit down at the nearest table=

If there's a bill, I'll pay.

(Lana)
Nice to meet you too, Snow.

=to Dormii=
He always this off?

(Dormii)
No, not usually. Snow, you sure you're okay?

=I turn around=

I said yes.

(Dormii)
=i put up my hands=
Okay, okay. No harm in asking.

=both Lana and I leave the Medbay, we head to the Living Quarters so Lana can get a room and sleep=

=Shamelessly, I continue to stuff my face with food=

Hey, what can I say? It's been a long time since I've had a good meal.

=finished eating, I put my plate in what looks like the sink, and head back to my ship=

Well, today was certainly............. Interesting.

=I get to the door of my ship when...=

Dammit, I forgot to ask if I could stay with them. Oh well, maybe in a few hours.

=I enter my ship, and get ready to take a nap=

The Elevator door opens, revealing a bright white light. the Doctor covers his eyes and exits the Elevator. The walls are dripping blood. the hall seems to stretch on into eternity. the walls look rusted and old. He walks slowly down the hall. A crying is heard. screams. Patients waking up, no longer sedated. scratching at the implants just under their skin. itching at the things they can't see. clawing at their skin, at the foreign objects sub-dermally implemented. As the Doctor walks by the rooms that gradually appeared and disappeared. Voices echoing off the hollow walls.
male-1,"Should have never done that, now the patient will die with no improvement"
female-1, "What do you think of the first Prototype?"
male-2,"He won't make it, he's too weak."
male-3,"The Second Prototype is much better."
female-1,"What about the third or fourth? any progress?"
male-2, "No, They've been taken to a new facility."
female-2,"Why?"
male-3"some new experiment."
male-1 "It's for some gene experimentation"
Female-1, "I thought the prototypes were going to be experimented on with tech?"
male-2, "They are, to see if we reach the same results as the natural ones."
female-2, "but the third prototype shows signs of natural---"
male-4, "No. He is being sent to the other facility.
The voices change. Coming from the depths of the Doctors mind. Blood hits the windows on some of the doors as an unknown force explodes the inhabitants. Blood seeps beneath the doors, some swing open. the glass of some shatter outwards. though the Doctor takes no notice. His eyes are on the door ahead of him. leading to some unknown destination. some unknown truth.

The Elevator door opens and the doctor falls out of it, onto the floor in front of David.

=I bump into Jack=

What are you doing..?

David lunges out, catching the doctor and almost collapsing under his weight, "You're a heavy one, aren'tcha?" He groaned and carried Nikolaus in a bridal-style carry to the medbay, laying him down on a cot and sticking an IV in his arm. He opened up a private comms-link, "Guys, get over here ASAP. I'm in the medbay, the doctor is unconscious." The squad, adorned in black body-armor, rush over to the medbay.

=He turns around and sees Snow there=

Nothing. Waiting for something interesting to happen...

=He chuckles=

=I sigh=

Yes.. I see. Where is your little friend?

=He becoms serious=

Who, Lori? Havent seen her. I think shes sleeping...

As long as she is safe from you.

=I step back=

That was unnecessary...

It was completely necessary.

=I step back closer=

I saw her cuts and bruises... that was worse then...

=I put my head down=

That was uncalled for..

=He turns around to face him=

It was worse than what?

Nothing.

=I turn around=

No woman should be treated like that...

=I begin to walk away=

And no son should be treated like I was by her.

=I hear the word 'son'=

Son..?

Thats what i kept saying. She tries to make me forget the past. Something i will never do. She calls herself a mother. She is not, never has been, nor will she ever be.

There is still no need to strike her into submission..

=I begin to walk away again=

I am going to talk to her..

=As Snow walks away he chuckles and says to him from down the hall=

My intention was not to beat her into submission, i assure you.

=He gives a breif chuckle=

It was to kill her.

=I cringe at that comment=

Medics can't raise the dead you know.

=I walk to the housing area and knock on Lori's door=

Hello, Miss?

=Lori wakes up and looks at the clock=

Lori- Hello?

=we arrive in the living quarters area of the ship=

(Dormii)
Just pick a room. If there is no name on the door, it's yours.

(Lana)
=I smile=
Well, which ones yours?

(Dormii)
=I chuckle=
Don't get any ideas. I'm in love with someone else. And it's the one with my name on it.

(Lana)
=I lightly punch him in the arm=
I was not! Get your mind out of the gutter!

(Dormii)
Uh huh, sure, Purp. Go get yourself a room.

(Lana)
Hey, about the hanger bay. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make your life any harder.

(Dormii)
It's okay, I understand what happened. Old habits die hard.

(Lana)
It's just...I wanted to get back into the war. To help humanity when I heard about the Covenant. First chance I got to was right then.

(Dormii)
It's okay, it's okay. Don't worry about it.

(Lana)
=I go to speak, but stop myself. I nod=
Okay. I'll see you later.

=I head off and find a room to call my own. I put my name on the door and go inside and sleep=

(Dormii)
=I smile and shake my head as she goes off. I turn and start wandering the halls again, my shotgun bumping against my back as I walk=

(The playlist comes to a halt after the song 'Right Here')

Ill be here. Right here waiting.

(He sighs)

What is the point

(Another playlist begins to go)
(He smiles)

Photograph

=I open the door=

Are you ok?

=She sits up=

L- Fine, why?

=She rubs her eyes=

=I walk in=

Just seeing if you beating from your 'son' is healing well..

=She looks at him sternly=

What did you come here for?

(Dormii until specified otherwise)

=I walk around, trying not to fall asleep. I see Snow and Lori talking. I walk over, but stay quiet=

What did you do to Xazhi.

=I look at her seriously, but my helmet remains on=

=Xazhi walks up to the room.. He leans against the wall outside and listens=

L- What do you mean?

=She looks away=
