"I will not have any dirty behaviour in my hotel!"
"Sharon...you run a hotel. Ok there are so many things I could say right now, but I don't have time."
Khan was leaning against me, in the hotel lobby. I had left the metal table in a an alleyway and threw the hazmat suit in a self-incinerating dumpster. It would destroy the suit and my DNA, and I am sure by now the table had been stolen and pawned off somewhere.
"Please Sharon, he needs medical treatment, but he is in trouble and won't allow me to bring him to a hospital."
"Trouble?" She placed her arms across her chest, and said threw gritted teeth. "Trouble, like your trouble? Like wanted by the police trouble?"
"Shhh. He doesn't know that. Listen. I don't know if he is wanted, but I recused him from people trying to torture him" I pulled back the blanket to reveal the burns and bruises on his chest.
Her arms fell to her sides, and the features of her face fell in shock and sadness. "Fine. This way."
I followed the petite older lady down the hall to a room. She helped me place Khan on the bed.
"Bring me your first aid kit."
Fine. She was quick and brought me the kit.
"Later you are going to have to tell me everything that happened. I already know why you wear the coloured contacts, but you have to tell me about the blonde wig."
"Fine. Later." I slammed the door shut on her.
Khan was lying on the bed, wrapped in the blanket from Section 31. He looked up at me, his deep blue eyes glanced lazily around the room. He was still dazed from the drugs.
He whispered something, so quiet I could hardly hear it. I stood beside him.
"What?"
"Help."
His eyes rolled back in his head. He stopped breathing.
He was dying!
