  Zyo stared at Jak. "The Inner Dome?! I thought-''''That it was a myth?"Jak chuckled. "Nope! Though, I thought you'd already know, considering you found one of the caves.." "I was being dumb" Zyo admitted. He tried to get to his feet and pain shot through his leg and chest and he cried out in pain. "Hay hay stay there.. The medication must've worn off." Jak hurried off. Zyo stayed there, only because he knew he wouldn't get far like this. Jak came back and before Zyo could protest shoved a large needle into his arm. "OW!!"Zyo cried out. Jak made sure he sat still and injected it all. Zyo was surprised, he felt better instantly. He got up, he wasn't in pain anymore. "Take me to my brother.." Zyo murmured. Jak surprisingly listened, leading Zyo down a hallway. They came across a very tall twenty-seven-year-old man. "Zyo, this is Riftyn'' Jak explained. "He's my older brother!!" Zyo kinda just waved awkwardly. They continued on, until Jak took Zyo to another room, Griffin was there, he hadn't gotten as badly hurt as Zyo had, he was already asking everyone questions. Zyo ran over. "Griffin!" he grabbed Griffin in a hug. Griffin clung to him for a moment. "I was worried that the rats had killed you.." he whimpered. "It's ok, that'll never happen.." Zyo murmured picking Griffin up. Griffin got in a piggyback position, but with his feet firmly planted in those big wings. Zyo carried around Griffin for a bit. Jak took them to some kind of small dining room and got them some food, which they gratefully accepted. They were eating when the door of the room was thrown open and standing there was a girl, maybe 17 years old,at the most. She had dark brown hair that was streaked with purple and beautiful blue eyes. Zyo didn't seem to notice that he was staring. She looked at him. "So.. you're the kid they brought in, aye?" She had a thick accent, Australian or something he didn't really know. "Y-yeah.." Zyo mumbled. She tilted her head at him. After a moment she turned to Jak. "Well, he's healthy enough," she said. "Good job mate" Jak nodded, turning a little red, he seemed to match his hair. Griffin giggled a little. The girl looked at him and smiled as if this child's joy was something she hadn't seen in forever. No one had really.. "I'm Falcon. Everyone here calls me LunaWing.." She introduced herself. Zyo scrambled to find something to say, "U-Uh..Cool!"he said, his voice squeaked a little in his nervousness. She smiled. "And what's your name?"she asked. "O-oh.. It's So.. " suddenly he stumbled back a little and his eyes turned black. "I gotta go, ''he said, his voice changing in an unsettling way. He darted for the door, feeling darkness coming into his mind. "No no no no no " "you can't fight me human.." "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!" Zyo screamed in his mind running out of the room, he stumbled and fell, he couldn't control it much longer. LunaWing ran after him and tried to help him up. "Wait! Don't touch me! I'm dangerous..."he tried to get away, he suddenly puked up what looked like the same green stuff the super monsters did. Lunawing backed up as Zyo writhed on the ground in sheer pain. It was horrible, the worst pain Zyo had ever felt in his entire life. "No no no no no no no no no.. not again.."he whimpered in his mind. "Please.." "too late >:3" Zyo cried out in pain as another jolt shot through him. Lunawing ran off to get help. He whimpered pleadingly. "Please please please no.."he thought beggingly. The demon in his head just laughed. "Why do you even fight it? It's who you are.. I am who you are.." "NO!!" Zyo mentally screamed as the pain increased. Darkness was starting to press in on his vision and he was going unconscious. "NO!!"he screamed one more time before everything went black and all he knew was that he had failed. When Zyo came back to consciousness he was strapped to some kind of table, there were what looked like scientists all around. Zyo tried to sit up but he couldn't. He started thrashing and struggling, but then a scientist came and stuck him with something and everything went black again....
