Chapter 2- Devestation

The next night came. No one but Sethirene was at the lab. They now trusted her, and she did not care for their punishment they gave, so she obeyed what they wanted. She paced to the room with Kadaj in it, and she remembered they never gave him his daily dose of sugar. She got the needle that had what it needed, and she poked it in the side of his neck. As she was injecting the needle, his eyes started twitching. She pulled the needle out of him, and tossed the needle. His eyes hardly opened, but he started muttering,"C-Cloud... Did you save m-me... Did you rescue sist-" he got caught off because he saw Sethirene.
He tried to jump at her, furious and happy. She pulled out a tiny knife, and placed the tip on his shoulder. He tried to jump at her again, but the knife tore through him. He shrieked. She pulled the knife out of him, and she said,"project K?! Are you trying to kill me?"
Kadaj shook his head, and said,"sister... Sethirene it's me. You're my sister. Get me out of here so we can leave.."
She froze, and said,"sister... I've never had siblings in my life. And my parents died three years ago.."
Kadaj paused to that, he never knew they brainwashed her. He let tears flow freely out of his eyes, and he ignored the pain in his shoulder. He cried more,"Sethirene... Did Ya...or what you would surly call project Y, doing... Did he die?"
"That other guy.. No.. And I'm not your fricken sister!" She said louder than usual.
He tried to escape the velcro straps, but couldn't. He struggled more, but to his surprise, she grabbed his wrists. She never felt warm like she often did. He felt her dig her nails into him. He begged,"remove your gloves... And hold each of my wounds... The result will prove you're my sister."
"No!" She snapped back.
Kadaj knew she wouldn't, unless he said a good motive. He felt her nails dig deeper into his skin, than she let go. He wanted another answer to something. "How long have I been here?!"
She paused, and backed up about a meter, and she said,"you've been here three years, but I've only seen you past the last two..."
"I promise no blood will get on ya. Place your bare hand on my wounds..." He pleaded.
She shook a little but moved closer to him, and removed one glove, and held his trauma. She was waiting for him to say something. She looked at him, and his eyes were shut, but he was smiling. She liked that he was enjoying her touching him, but just as she got comfortable with him, she heard him whisper in her ear,"I love you Sethirene. Gain your love back for me..."
She pulled away, but never got mean, but she said,"what if I said I hated you..."
Kadaj raised his head, and looked at her, and said,"well do you?"
She turned he back, and murmured,"no...no I don't... But I don't love you either..."
"Do you care about me?"
"Not completely... I just don't want you to die.."
"When you held my wound..."
"What?"
"See for yourself."
She removed the velcro that bound his chest, and waist. She unzipped his clothing, low enough that she could take his arm out of his sleeve. She was worried if she removed the cuff around his hand, he would try and grab her. She avoided removing it, but she pulled his sleeve down. She saw blood on his arm, but no source that could cause it to bleed. She zipped up his clothing. He stayed still for a moment, then said,"now do you believe I'm your brother?"
"No..." She said.
He let out a sigh, and said,"would you remove these restraints?"
"If you wanna get caught, and killed, than yes."
He never felt like getting hurt, or even touched by the scientists. He remained silent. He soon remembered what he last saw, before they added toxics to him. Yazoo. He was still hurt if they never treated him. He looked at her, and asked cautiously,"could I at least see Yazoo... Did they heal him?"
Sethirene shook her head, and placed her hand flat on Kadaj's chest. She sighed, and said,"he's infected. The infection spread to be visible on the front side of him. He has two scars that go straight through him. They've tried surgeries on him, and more. Nothing worked."
He looked back down, and closed his eyes, and said,"would you heal him...? But let me be there...to see him... I miss you, and him... Where is big brother?"
"Who's your other brother?" She asked.
"He won't remember me by now. We never did anything memorable, unless he likes thinking of bad times. He truly wasn't my brother. But I've known him my whole life. As a enemy, friend, and family... Now can I please see Yazoo?" He replied.
She sighed, and put each of he hands on his shoulders, and said,"fine. As long as you don't try to do anything against the rules. Means no braking machines, no escaping, no attacking, and my own rule, no hurting me."
Kadaj smiled, and nodded. He got more excited each time she undid a strap. She finished the last one. He stood up, but fell the moment he did. Sethirene caught him, and she said,"be careful. They'd fire me if I let you get damaged."
"Than until I'm able to walk... Would you carry me?" He asked cheerfully.
"No."
He stumbled to his feet, trying to regain balance, and soon he stood. He wobbled slightly, and said,"lead the way sister.."
Him calling her sister was annoying her, but she dealt with it.
He followed her every step, but each step he wanted to jump on her, and kiss her. He never did though. They came to a door that said,"project Y. Still in progress."
He watched as she turned the nob, and walked in. There was his brother strapped to a chair like he was. He ran up to him, and knelt down, and placed his hand on his chest. He turned around, and asked,"would you free him from the restraints?"
She nodded, and took each knew off.
Kadaj pulled him out of the chair, and sat on his knees on the ground, and stroked Yazoo's hair thoroughly. He laid Yazoo flat on the floor, and he removed the top half of his clothing. He saw the scar she was talking about, and he placed his hand on it. He flipped him over, and saw it was even worse on the other side. He pulled him back up, and into him, and he said,"heal him... Please... You don't care enough for us yet. So again you have to do it without gloves, and since his wound is to bad, he can't wear his top half clothing."
She never wanted either to be in pain, so she slowly walked up to him, and waited for Kadaj to lay him down. Kadaj laid him on the floor, and backed up. He watched as she placed her hand on one scar, and on the other. She flipped him over, and held each one again. She was finished, and he looked fine. She put his clothes back on him, and she left him on the ground again. Kadaj gave him one last hug, and sat him back in the chair. He watched her strap him back on to it, and turn around. She led him back to his room, and she pointed to his chair, and said,"it's nearly morning. You don't wanna get in trouble, and neither do I."
Kadaj nodded, but walked behind her, and spun her around, and kissed her on the lips. He held her into him, and kept her lips pressing to his. She was stunned from the move he made, she never knew he really loved her that much. She tried to pull away, but Kadaj forced her into himself even more. She was getting sick and tired of it. She pushed him away enough, that there was a small gap in between them. She slipped her foot through and onto his stomach, and kicked him away. Ironically he landed in the chair. She wrapped velcro around his neck, chest, waist, arms, hands, and legs, to the chair. She backed away, and nearly screamed at him,"project K! Never ever do that again... Or I might force them to put an end to you!..." She regretted those words, cause deep down, somewhere in her, loved him, but she wouldn't show it.
Kadaj closed his eyes, and sighed,"your promise... Already broken... These people really are treacherous... They killed my and your eldest brother...and you were more sad than any of us about it, and I was violent to my other brother... I hate breaking promises... And hearing you saying you want to put me to death..." He opened his eyes.
She walked closer to him, and put her hand on his shoulder, and muttered,"I-I'm sorry... I never meant it..."
He started laughing, and said,"sure ya did.. Heck, the first time I met ya.. All you wanted was to kill me. You're the fourth.. The fourth remnant of Sephiroth."
She pulled away again, and said,"S-Sephiroth... He's an evil doer.. I'd never be part of him."
"But you are-" he got cut off by knock on the door.
Sethirene grabbed a syringe, and stabbed his neck with it, and she healed the dot, and said,"come in."
Her boss walked in, and asked,"did he awake last night?"
She paused. She was worried about what they would do to him, but it always seemed his master could see through her. She spoke at last,"yes... He's kind... Don't hurt him.."
"While he was awake, you two must've had a lovely time together, cause you seem so protective of him.." He said.
She walked closer to him, and said,"master I realized something... I can heal. He also said I was his sister... is it true?"
"No...no.." 'Dammit!' He said, and thought.
He never changed his expression at all, he looked at her, and asked,"he seems to not be comfortable. Did he make you mad?"
She really paused on this one. She sighed, than said,"yes.. He...he...he kissed me..."
He raised an eyebrow, and said,"you let him out?!"
She slowly nodded, and again,"don't hurt him... When he wakes up again.."
"How long of a lasting potion did you give him?" He asked.
"About...hmm... Half hour or so..." She replied shakily.
He was about to reply, when another knock came upon the door. A scientist walked in, and said,"miss Sethirene. It's your two hour brake now. I will fill in for you."
It was a good friend of hers, and she knew she could trust him. She walked out the door, but as she did, she said,"keep the projects K and Y safe."
He smiled at her, and said,"yeah... I will."
He was young like her, perhaps a little older, had dark brown short hair, and was about 5 foot 5 tall, and had dark blue eyes. He was never fond with the projects, but he hated to disappoint her, so he listens.
