The woman strapped to the pole looks barely like Faith.
Her skin is pulled tight to her body and covered in various kind of wounds. Her whole body is covered in blood. She trembles as she looks up. Eyes a deep red, fangs elongated.
"Faith, do you still know us."
Silence. North walks closer, discovering all kinds wounds. Burn marks, bite marks, bruises, ripped of skin, cut skin and so on.
"No-north. I... Please... It... It hur-hurts."
North kneels down next to Faith, taking wire cutters to free her.
Faith falls down, can't keep herself up anymore.
North puts her arm underneath Faith's arm, on her back. Josh does the same. The two of them support her.
"Markus, go ahead and warn them to keep their distance." The deviant leader nods and runs ahead, while the other two support her.
"You're safe again. You're free." North keeps whispering to Faith. Both to convince Faith, but also herself.
Outside, Faith staggers. Her body is too drained to get to the blood she smells. The scent immobilises her.
North puts her in the car, sitting down next to her. Josh sits down on her other side. Markus is already in, starting the car and driving to her house. Knowing it is the safest place for her.
Simon will be coming, together with Connor to bring her whole blood supply. They should all arrive around the same time.
Markus parks the car and opens the doors to help Josh and North carry her.
They sit her down on a chair, while Markus runs a bath.
Simon and Connor walk in. Connor freezes when he sees her.
During the car ride she lost consciousness and she still hasn't come through.
"She needs to drink." North urges. Simon hands her his bags before handing Connor's. He leaves to go outside again. Probably getting more.
"The bath is ready. Let's get her in there."
Markus looks over at Connor and his boyfriend.
Connor moves closer to Faith, delicately picks her up.
In the bathroom he carefully lowers her in the lukewarm water. She twitches.
Markus hands Connor one of the bags filled with blood bags. The Jericho leave Connor alone with Faith, locate themselves in the living room to help when needed.
Connor slowly takes a bag and pierces it with her fangs. The response is instinctual and the bag empties out.
He keeps doing that for her until the bag is empty.
"Can I have more?" He asks.
North walks in with another bag.
Hands it to her android friend. He looks broken, but determined.
It takes a long while, but the wounds start to close and she looks healthier.
Her eyes blink open, revealing the left one not functional. The wound is too deep, her whole eye looks white.
"Con?"
"I'm here. You're safe. You're free." He takes her hand, feeling the chip, but doesn't interface. Doesn't want to overwhelm her negatively.
She starts crying.
Taking the blood bag Connor is holding, she drains it. A few more follow before she looks okay. Physically.
She must be broken mentally. She'll never be the same.
