No matter how much I want to escape my body disregards it, I'm too weak to fight back. I need to think of a different approach when I get the chance.

 I'm dragged back through the door I came through earlier and plugged down onto the operating table.  Like I imagined, the blue faced monster removes his hand from my mouth slowly and leans back in relief. With my fairly brief plan of survival, I punch him square in the face propelling him backwards against the desk. In shock, he holds the left side of his jaw where I managed to hit. Before I could make another attempt at escaping, he instantly rushes to slam the door shut and then stands with his back firmly against it.

"Well Jeff sure picked a feisty one here" mumbles out of his mouth.
His tone of voice is much deeper than Jeff's yet contains a slight hint of softness.

Did he just mention Jeff? I have so many questions to ask but my mind is still trying to process everything that has just happened.

"Who are you and what do you want from me?" My question is sharp and straight to the point I stand here expecting a good explanation.

"My name is Jack or EJ for short and if it was my way, I would have taken your kidneys but Jeff is very persuasive and let's face it, no one wants to be on his bad side. So what I
I really want from you is an apology". The way he spoke was simple although I could tell he was being sarcastic.

An apology, he would like an apology? What for, for not taking my kidneys?
I take a step away from him and raise my eyebrows.

"You want an apology? And why exactly would I owe this honor to you?"

A smirk emerges from his face as I speak.

"Well Elixir, firstly after your little incident with Jane, I cleared up your wounds and prevented  further rupturing to any major blood vessels even when you had just moments to live. Don't worry I didn't take your kidneys but trust me I was tempted. It would go well with my collection."
Briefly, he takes a glance around the eerie room and looks at them as though they are his prized possessions.

" Secondly, I just saved you the horror of getting noticed by Slenderman and Jane and after all that I get punched in the face."

Here I stand completely baffled by everything he just said. Words struggle to escape my mouth. He seems genuine I mean why else would he protect me from Slenderman and Jane and it does appear my wounds are clean. I have no other choice but to believe him because either way i'd much rather believe him than have another round with Jane.

"Look i'm sorry" I avoid eye contact even though i'm still unsure on whether he can see me or not. Although it is strange on how he can perform surgery.

"That's better. I'll let Jeff know you're awake and he can get you out of here. I don't fancy being beaten up anymore."

I brush off his comment and wait cautiously for Jeff to arrive.

Roughly about fifteen minutes later Jeff and BEN enter the room appearing out of breath.

Jeff's eyes instantly met mine. I could feel my cheeks burning up unexpectedly, revealing a rosy tint on my skin. I turn my head away in hope he won't notice.

" EJ why are you holding your face?" BEN blurted out with curiosity.

EJ shifts his body to face the culprit which of course is me.
"Let's say that Elixir has anger issues" he said with an annoyed tone.

"Actually I would call it self defense"
I hastily reply.
Ben begins to snicker, getting  progressively louder by the second. Jeff also begins to chuckle to himself quietly.
