Oof well, I wanted to find a picture that would fit the description of the other chapter, but seems that I was unable too, so I decided to try my hand at drawing said thing, tho I know it will probably be hard. (Please, don't mind my art skills if they are not to your liking, they are only here for visual purpose.)
--------------------------------------------------------------

Forgetting the card scan in admin, I headed back out, aiming for the storage to get some cleaning supplies to clean up the mess in admin. Getting the supplies, I rushed back, getting to cleaning the floor, picking up the glass and carefully mopping away the green stuff. Everything was going well until one stupid shard of the test tube decided to slip and cut my hand open a bit, allowing the green liquid to seep into the now open wound. 'Fuck! What am I supposed to do now?!' I thought panicked, dropping the shards into the bucket next to me, grabbing my hand and squeezing at my wrist to try and not let the liquid get further as I felt it make its way through my veins.

I wasn't easy however, I started feeling immense pain spreading through my body and making its way to my brain, causing me to let go of my wrist and clutch at my head instead, the immense headache making my vision blurry. I could feel tears pricking at my eyes and guessed myself so lucky to have brown come in and find me. Tho everything was clean, the shards still had a bit of green and one of them had my blood on it.

I was left groaning on the ground l, my vision fading. Basically, about to pass out when I felt brown's arms close around me and pick me up, proceeding to carry me. Where to, I don't know.

Regaining consciousness, I slowly opened my groggy eyes, rubbing them before sitting up on the bed, which I probably should have avoided, seeing as how my whole body was acing. Brown was at the monitors, seemingly monitoring my vitals. Casting aside the pain, I felt a weird, tingly sensation coming from the hand I had cut. Looking down, I saw that my hazmat suit was pulled down to my waist (Sasuke style (later on) from Naruto, if you get what I mean;)), baring my tight, black, long-sleeved shirt I wore underneath. Mustering my hand, I noticed it was bandaged again, this time the bandaging done more professionally and more cleanly. The only problem was, as soon as I tried to clench my hand into a fist, I saw my blood seeping through the bandages again, staining them.

But what disturbed me more was that my hand didn't hurt. Not at all. In fact, it seemed to somehow be distorted and miss shaped. I gasped, watching small bumps appearing and disappearing under the bandages, which caught brown's attention, who, accordingly to my gasp, turned around, a both worried and relieved expression caressing his face.

"Baby blue! Are you ok?!" He asked, rushing up to me and gently pushing me back into the sheets.

I groaned, looking back at him. "I'm fine.. Where's green?" I then asked, wanting to show him that I was not interested in case he was trying to appeal to me.

"What do you mean where's green?" He asked, giving me a lopsided look, slightly dipping his head to one side and looking like a lost puppy.

"He wasn't here when I came back to med bay around 5 minutes later, how would he disappear into thin air so quickly. He was supposed to be put to rest in bed!" I replied, looking up at brown with pleading eyes.

"Please help me look for him?" I asked, trying to persuade him into helping me.

I caught him rolling his eyes, but he did still agree to help me look in the end. After a little while longer of brown writing down my vitals, he finally allowed me to get out of the bed and go look for green. We started searching in the halls and went straight for upper engine, making our way down to the fork which leads to either security, reactor, or just further down the hall. Since security was small, we decided to check that room first. Of course, the chances of him being there were low, we still needed to check the ship from top to bottom.  Finding no sign of him, or any clue that might indicate he was there, we proceed to head into reactor, searching every nook and cranny desperately.

Still nothing. 'Will I even find him like this? As of right now I cover too little ground, plus he could be moving about and be in the places I looked through after I leave. No, I have to first continue my search, then think about it all later.' Mind made up, I left reactor and went down the hall to engine 2. Nothing there either. Proceeding, I was afraid to enter electrical, as that is where most of the 'raids' happen. With some encouragement from brown, we headed inside, checking the front room, before finding some specks of red at the right hand side, leading further into the room. Panicked, I quickly ran over to it and soon saw, what seemed like a big trail of crimson blood, leading to the corner of the room. I felt my breath hitch up, my breathing coming out as frantic pants.

I could feel my body tensing up, a shiver running up and down my spine. Trailing the blood with my eyes, they ascended slowly, landing on a pair of black boots, then moving up further, recognition hitting me like a pang to the head. I felt tears welling up in my eyes when they landed on the suit. All I could do was fall to my knees, wishing that it weren't true. 'Why?' Was all I could think of now.
