"The eternal quest of the individual human being is to shatter his loneliness."
β€”NORMAN COUSINS

β€”

This entire place was sealed and only opened to one specific blood. Theirs. But mom and dad, they were the good guys, weren't they? He stared at the old metal cage. His blood ran cold. No good came from trapping kids in a dog crate unless you wanted to use themβ€”hurt them.

"Not people. Worse," Zero flipped the illegible data sheets in the air, "they're cold-blooded researchers who lied about everything." He couldn't look at her, damn, damn this hell hole. He kicked the cage over, the metal bent without much effort and crushed against the wall. Loretta was right all along, they shouldn't have ventured forward. He shouldn't have followed Ren here when they could've been safe across the world. Responsibility, putting others first, isn't that what Doc kept saying? Things he understood but didn't or couldn't ever put to use. Because it was just like him to head straight into things without a care for anything else. All just for answers. Answers that he wasn't so ready to learn anymore. Not like this.

"We're leaving, now." He approached Loretta and drew her into his arms, "I shouldn't have never come down here, I'm sorβ€”" He tensed at a strange tingle running up his spine. Whatever hit him, struck hard. He gripped Loretta's arms and stared into her eyes. She couldn't run or defend herself. He had to shield her. So he did. He let go.

"I told you." Ren said, he spat out blood. The look of loss on Vakira was too much to pass up. The she-beast stared at the blank screen for so long, it nearly cracked. She swiped at her eye and spun on him.

"You won't be smiling when I rip out your heart," she said, "and crush it right in front of you."

Ren let out a croaked sort of laugh, "Are you waiting for an invitation?"

She remained stiff, watching the stack of security feeds. Her attention at the figure attacking a cage.

Ren sighed. "Well, isn't that a bloody waste?"

"Is it?"

"He loves her too much, he'll kill for her. Haven't you learned anything from spying on them these last months?"

"That he uses Doll as a blood supply and has her believing in this unbreakable love they have? Sure, but soon, she'll see him for what he really is."

He pulled against his restraints and his head spun. "Bullshit. He loves her. More than you think."

"Are you willing to stake your life on it?"

"When I get free. I'm coming after you."

Vakira made a face and shrugged, "This wouldn't be our first Tango. Now, sit tight." She shook her head, "Not that you're going anywhere." She stormed out the double doors and for a while there was no sound except for the whir of lights and hum of machines.

Then. Footsteps.

A pair of gloved hands tugged and tore at restraints, "Hurry up, we don't have much time." A man, large man, with wild blood-red hair and a bandana across his face.

"Who are..." Ren couldn't muster anymore than that. Something pressed into his lips, blood seeped through.

"This was for Zero, but you're gonna need it." He whispered, and then he freed Ren.

Across the room, the screen flickered, there was Vakira, she had shot something at Zero. He climbed on the table. Half crouched over the girl, all vectors. His eyes made Ren flinch. They reflected no light.
