Ava appears in the opening. I still have my eyes locked on Kenzie, even though she's not looking at me anymore.
"Shuck, that's a big needle," I say to her when she pulls out a tube with orange liquid inside.
"Yes, well...It will cure you. This, I am sure of."
"How long?"
"Seconds." She opens the cell, and steps close to me. She grabs my arm as she sticks the needle in my arm. I look up from my arm at Kenzie. She looks so beautiful. I smile at her when she looks up at me. The smile she gives back looks so forced. I hate it when she does that. I wish I could make it real. Make her happy. "There. Follow me."
We walk past Kenzie, and enter the elevator. She steps in seconds later. She doesn't even stand close to me.
We're going to the floor where Kenzie was killed. I clench my fists. Killed. She isn't real. Kenzie is dead. The door opens, and we all walk out. There are a bunch of lab tables, and Ava has me lay down on one of them. She places wires in my face. "She's dead..."
"I'm right here," she says, and grabs my hand.
I close my eyes. Don't listen to her. "No, no, no, no."
"I thought you said seconds," she says.
I open my eyes, and look at Ava. She looks away from her computer, and back at Kenzie. Then she turns back around.
"Why isn't it working!?" She shouts. She picks up the needle, and throws it against the wall. It shatters into a millions pieces. She takes a deep breath, "No matter. We will proceed to Plan B." She walks over to me, and pulls the wires out of my face.
"Plan B? What's Plan B?" Kenzie asks. She sounds concerned. She knows something... What do you know?
