  Clint woke up for forth time that night. Not from nightmares but from anxiety to see the blood results. He could not wait any longer.Its been a few moths since he first had the thought of stealing the blood samples. He saw Camille laying at his side with her arms around him. he slipped away of the Wallaby. replacing himself with a pillow. and grabbing from his closet a black hoodie and jeans. After changing he saw Camille still asleep on his bed. The moon light illuminating her face a little covered by her red hair. He stood there for a moment but decided to press on with his plan. He opened a window and left,

He walked by the dark ways of the town and eventually arrived to the clinic. It was dark. only one light was on. I Dr Anna's office who was presumably working late. Clint analyzed the building. A one floor with flat roof and windows on it. With that he climbed to the roof the roof and searched for a window. He opened the one above the laboratory and jumped in to search his samples. He found them and got out the way he got in.

He ran to the HQ and quickly putted some blood on the microscope and left the rest on the table. Hours pass like seconds for Clint searching for the problem. And then he saw it. An anomaly. <There are like capsules. But what do that contain?> he though He went to the computer to search it. It was right at that moment when Someone was about to open the door making Clint jolt out of surprise and going to the microscope and taking the blood samples from the table and putting them on his pocket. Right before the door opened.

" Hey Clint what are you doing here?" Asked Alfred.

" Heya Alfred I was about to ask the same thing. What time is it?" Clint said nervous.

" It's about 7:08 am" Alfred said a little confused.

" Oh right I need to go" he said before running past Alfred towards the clinic forgetting the blood on the micriscope.

Clint was astonished remembering that the clinic should be opened by now. He jumped from branch to branch on the trees arriving at the clinic in a minute. And climbed to the roof searching for the window he left open. Seeing no one near he jumped in and left the samples and jumped out hurrying to his home expecting Camille to still be asleep.

Many thoughts pases through his mind mind while he jumped from branch to branch trying to connect the situations like why Alfred was in the HQ so early. Did he knew about him stealing his blood samples? Was Alfred suspecting of him?

He shrugged off the thought when he arrived to his home he tryied to think of a decent excuse while entering to his home through a window. He went upstairs to se if Camille was still asleep. However much to his surprise.

" Clint,Is that you love?" Camille said.

" Yes darling im here" He said nervous looking to his room while going upstairs. Camille was sited on the bed still in her pajamas. She smiled when Clint came into view and got up to hug him.

" Hey handsome." She said looking at him in the eyes. But her expression changed to doubt.

" You ok?" She asked putting a hand on Clint's cheek

" yeah why wouldn't I be?" Said Clint with a nervous smile.

" Why you got out?" She said noticing that he was dressed in all black.

" I was on a walk" Clint said casually.

" on all black and in the middle of the night?" She asked frowning with curiosity.

" well yeah why so much curiosity? " he responded feeling a little invaded.

" well considering how you felt last night I had to be worried" she said a little higher than she expected to.
