Leo tried again after a few minutes, but Yui had, had enough of food for now. They would try again at dinner time, which the boys were fine with. The house suddenly burst into a combination of sight and sound. "Leo! We need you!" He yelled and Yui watched as the two boys stood, running down the ladder. Yui went to the ledge to watch, but Damian lifted the ladder up, sealing her into the attic. After all, there was a stranger in the house, they couldn't reveal her presence to anyone. She didn't understand this though, Yui did understand, however, that they had closed one of her only windows. She felt her heart begin to race and her head spun. Why did they seal her up here? Had she done something wrong? The girl pushed against where the ladder normally was, wondering how it opened. The ladder didn't budge, she wasn't strong enough to make it release.
She could use that thing, that power that pulsed inside of her, but how? Yui watched her hands, the skin dancing as her blood sought a way out. Finally it burst through her palm, forming a staff in her hands. She didn't know what to do with it, so Yui tried prodding the ladder, she hit the staff against it, but the ladder sizzled and did nothing. Finally Yui gave up, sensing a snaking in her port, something warm in her veins. Her panic had induced a backup that Leo had put in and her blood returned to her. Yui leaned back, laying dizzily on the floor, this feeling familiar, almost comforting. Yui's eyes closed halfway and she started up at the ceiling, feeling slightly numb. She turned onto her side, her gaze level with the random items shoved underneath the bed in an attempt to keep the room clean.
Downstairs was a mess, there was blood everywhere as Damian placed a plastic cloth on the table and Xavier hoisted the kid up. Jenny had been hurt, but just barely. The lash on her arm was deep and would need stitches, but compared to the kid, whose insides had become outsides, she was in fine shape. Xavier had a small lash on his cheek but was otherwise fine. Leo worked, even when Aria got back he was elbows deep, hanging blood, working to keep this child alive. "Jenny and I are fine, the kid... not so much." There were rope burns around his neck, but that was the least of their concerned. He flat lined and no matter how many times Leo used the paddles of life, the kid didn't come back. It was his fate to perish, one way or another. "That's it, he's gone." Leo put the paddles down, his shoulders sagging heavily.
It was a good lesson to learn, as a Resident, you can't save them all.
"It's okay, you did your best." Xavier stepped forward, closing the child's eyes. "At least he died knowing that there are people out there who cared about him." Tears sprung to Jenny's eyes as Leo went to scrub himself so that he could attend to the deep gash on her arm and the cut on Xavier's cheek. "Aria, take a seat, Leo will patch us up next." The monitor had been turned off so that the glaring beep didn't ring in their ears. "Dammit!" Xavier slammed his fist against his leg, clearly upset. If they had been two minutes earlier, if Damian had heard the holo go off faster. Then, then this might not have happened! They might have saved the child!
