Maya walked towards what had to be either Bridget's or Fletcher's room, though she was't sure which it was. She hesitantly knocked, squeezing Harmon's hand gently in a gesture of comfort.
Ooc:// Please excuse my short post. And Wolf Paws and Husky5, either of you can respond.

Fletcher was startled by a sudden -but soft- knocking on his thick, steel door. Brushing the dust off of himself, he got up from sitting on his creaky, springy bed to see who it was, even though he already had an idea. He grabbed the handle and pulled on it using his full body weight, and it added to the ruts in the concrete floor as it opened. Sticking his head out the door, he half-heartedly muttered, "Hi, Maya. Harmon."

"Fletcher...first off, sorry about eariler. I was just really...emotional and angry, and I didn't think it through. Sorry," Maya began, stuttering slightly, purely out of the awkward feeling she was experiencing. "Second, I don't think it's a good idea to be alone...not at the moment. I was thinking we could all sleep in Seth's room...is that okay with you?"

Fletcher appreciated the apology, but he felt he really needed to be alone, at least for the night. "You guys go ahead," he replied, shaking his head. "I don't think Seth wants to see me anyway." Without another word, he pushed the door shut, which came much easier than opening it. Fletcher leaned against the door, his black, straight hair in his eyes. He knew if he let Maya answer his statement, she would tell him otherwise, that Seth wouldn't mind and that he should come anyway.

Maya sighed. "I wish he would listen," she muttered, talking more to herself rather than to Harmon. She headed towards Bridget's door, and knocked on it, a bit louder this time. She had been slightly annoyed by Fletcher's reactions.

[I'm soooooo sorry I haven't been on lately. I got grounded D: But I'm back on the computer now.]
Bridget stood up off of the sorry excuse for a bed she had and walked towards the door. I sure hope it isn't the lab people, she thought, and used her full body weight just to pry the door open enough to get her foot between the door and the wall, and then she managed to squeeze into the little crack, making it bigger in the process. "Maya!" She said happily, "Harmon!" She smiled. "I'm glad to see both of you! But.... why are you here?" She asked curiously.

Seth heard the faint words Maya and Fletcher were saying. He puffed to himself. "Geez, do I actually have to say sorry to him? Becase I thought all these injuries and me screwing up and getting caught would be sorry enough." He got up steadily, wobbling on his feet even still. He took a few stes towards Fletcher's door and knocked on it. But he didn't bother to wait for him to open the door to say what he had to. After all, he probably wouldn't open it anyway. "Fletcher... listen." Every small word hurt. You could hear it in his tone. The raspier his voice was, the more prominant the pain was too. He continued, though, not letting anything stop him. "I'm..." he paused. After a sigh he decided to finish the sentence. "I'm.. sorry." He finally said. "It was wrong of me to put you guys in danger by coming home. It was wrong and I shouldn't have done it. Now if anything happens to you guys, it'll be my fault. So go ahead, blame everything on me. I deserve it. But please, Fletcher, you can't stay mad at me forever. Please...." His last word had a pleading tone to it. Almost as if he were begging for forgiveness. "It's supposed to be my job to protect everyone since I'm the oldest. But I failed at that, leaving you to take it. You should never have to feel like that. I'm so sorry...." He then decided to go back to his room, feeling his mission was complete. But, unfortunately, he couldn't make it that far. He winced in pain at every little step, and because of this, he decided to just sit on the wall next to Fletcher's room.

"I thought it would be best if we all slept together tonight. I-I don't know what they have in mind, but we're basically prisoners in here. I don't want to be alone, neither do the others." The last part could very well be a lie, Maya had no idea. But if she were forced to guess, she would think it was probably true. She opened her mouth to add something else, but a grating sound interrupted her. Somehow, Seth had managed to open both his and Fletcher's door, and was slowly stumbled into the room. She stood still, listening intently to Seth's words. She came in at a critical moment; Seth was leaning on the wall, looking like walking death; how he made it here, she had no idea.
His last words rang in her mind; "It's supposed to be my job to protect everyone since I'm the oldest. But I failed at that, leaing you to take it." Maya's eyes narrowed slightly, both out of concern for Seth, and irritation. "What? You think I can't protect the others? I had been doing quite well before this mess happened." With her hazel eyes flashing, arms crossed in front of her chest, a light scowl lurking on her face, it should have been difficult to argue with her.

Seth looked up at his sister and a new expression dawned on his face. It was one of both shock and sadnes. "Sorry Maya. I didn't mean to leave you out. Maybe it would be best if I left for good. All I ever do is cause trouble for this family. It wasn't good while I was there before, and it sure as hell ain't any better that I'm here now. I should have left well enough alone. You guys were doing fine without me. I'm no caretaker. I'm surprised you even still consider me a brother anymore. Cause I sure don't act like it. As much as I'd like to believe eveything could go back to normal, we all know I have to go away. Without me, things would be better for everyone..." All of his words were spoken truthfully, none of them were even slightly tainted with the hope others would feel sorry for him. He could care less if his siblings felt sorry for him or not. Right now he just wanted them to be free of him forever.
With all these things in mind, he searched through his pockets and found his small knife. Holding it up in front of his face, he stared at the gleam coming from the silver. And in a matter of seconds, without anyone to stop him, he brought it to his neck and slit his throat. Blood started seeping out. His eyes rolled back and his body dropped to the floor. The last sound you heard was the steady clank of the knife as, it too, fell flat on the floor.

"Seth!" Maya screamed, the word tearing from her throat. Already, tears were leaking out of her eyes, the relentless flow staining her pale cheeks. "Seth!" she screamed again, dropping to the ground. She tore off a strip of his shirt, pressing it against his neck. Blood soon stained the dirty cloth. "Someone go get help!" she cried out desperately, fear written all over her face. Without waiting, she began yelling for help herself. "Someone, come quick! Help!"
Her brother, lying on the floor, already pale, the floor slick with drops of crimson, that one image had driven Maya to her limit. It hurt her to see one of her siblings even injured with a hangnail...but this...this was worse that lying there herself. "Seth!" she screamed again, leaning over him. "Seth," she repeated, her voice hoarse and softer now. "Don't leave me, Seth." Overwhelming panic darkened her mind...the thought of losing her brother, whom she had been seperated from for years, who had just came back...death claiming him would not be acceptable.
"Get help!" Maya repeated, her voice shrill. "Hurry!"
Looking at Seth with heart-broken, terrified eyes, she said, "I am not losing you! Not to death, not to anyone! You hear me, Seth? I am not losing you!!!"

Bridget gasped, and tears fell down her cheeks. She stood there, frozen in shock, before running off to find help. Her heat raced in her chest as she ran, faster then she knew she could have. "Help! Somebody help, please!" She begged as she ran. "Help!"
Bridget ran down hallways, through rooms, and she wasn't noticing her surroundings. "Help!" She screamed again.

Fletcher heard Seth's apology, and his heart could have very well have melted right there. How could he not push open the door and wrap his brother in a bear hug? Because he was prideful, that's why.
Despite his pride, he felt he needed to talk to Seth. Maybe he even needed to... apologize himself. He cracked open his door to see if he was still there, and sure enough, he was, leaning against the wall. Before Fletcher could even step outside his room and suck in a breath to start his apology, Maya had started in on him. What was her problem?
But wait, Seth was yelling something back... he looked upset more than angry. And- oh no, is that a knife? What's he goin- OH MY GOSH! Fletcher shoved his door open and fell to his brother's side. He couldn't say a single word. He could only whimper, widen his eyes to the size of dinner plates, and choke on his own disbelief.
"SETH!" cried little Harmon as he dashed over to his crowd of siblings. There was so much blood, it seemed like it was smell-able from Australia. He weaved through everyone and sat right in front of his oldest brother, holding his shoulders and screaming in his face, trying to make him wake up and groan, just like back at home.
Home.
This was their home now.
Harmon kept shrieking, "Seth! Wake up! Stop! This isn't funny, Seth!" but when he didn't move, his voice lowered to a vulnerable whimper, whining, "Seth... don't die, Seth... I love you, Seth... don't die..."
As crying and screaming pierced through the chill air of the facility, Samantha leapt up from her paperwork on the newest kids and hurried to the mouth of the hallway to find-
"Oh my God!" Samantha cried, hands over her mouth. She kicked off her heels to increase her running ability, and then slid on her knees until she reached Seth, the breath of life almost eager to leave him. She urged Maya, Fletcher and Harmon to let her take him, not knowing if she wanted to put up a fuss or not. Without even thinking, she picked him up, her elbow supporting his head. Blood was pouring out of him like a faucet. Samantha sprinted down the hall, truly and genuinely worrying about this boy's life. She couldn't even imagine losing one of her own children...
Sam decided not to even entertain the thought of the death of a child. Too many children -even babies- have died in the hands of this awful place.
She burst into the emergency room of the facility, instantly demanding help and shouting it at the top of her lungs, "We need paramedics on this boy now! Drop what you're doing! He needs help this instant!"
She was usually sweet and undemanding, but the second someone- especially a kid- was in danger, her maternal instincts kicked into high gear, whether she liked it or not.

Seth stirred only slightly. His breathing was getting cut off. It was coming in and out in short, struggled gasps. His eyes came back into focus, sorta... By focus, it meant that his eyes rolled back to their normal position. But vision wise? Everything was spinning out of control. There were random black flashes controlling his sight, everything was blurring more and more, then becoming clear, then repeating the process. Seth groaned as he suddenly became aware that there was blood all over his burnt up shirt, which now had a tear at the bottom from... He tried to remember but the memories from just a few moments ago were very vague. He felt a piece of fabric on his neck and saw a small tip of it. He then realized that Maya had put it there. He lay his head back, happy his siblings cared enough to help save his life. But time was running out. Soon the black flashes would become more and more frequent. If something wasn't done fast, he could lose his life in less than a few minutes.
