CH 62 - Choices

Forth POV

I shake my head to stay awake, the poison was starting to set in but I wanted to see him. I rushed when Ming called, not knowing until later what the masters had done. We barely make it through the main doors, before Ming's arms are full with Kit, why didn't he come? Not yet, I grit my teeth, not until I see him.

"Where is Beam?"

"There were compilations." Kit looks worried.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

I don't wait for Kit to answer, I can hear his voice I hurry to find him.

"I can't believe the masters scrambled his brains." Yut's talking to the angels. "Amnesia eh?"

Amnesia? How did that happen? He forgot about us?

"Don't worry, I'll unscramble them." Nami's heading for Beam but the angels stop her.

"Run Doc." Yut's hurrying to Beam. "She has the slap happy glint in her eye."

I walk past them to stand in front of him, he looks at me strangely.

"Beam." I run my fingers through his hair. "Did you forget me?"

I manage to say before everything goes dark.

It's the pain that makes me open my eyes, I hiss feeling the sting and sharp ache as a shard is pulled from my flesh. My eyes turn as something digs in deep, my mind and body screaming for blood but a hand on my shoulder stills me before I can move.

"Deep breaths Forth..."

"Beam... what happened to him?" I ask trying to focus.

"That guy is...strange." *cough*

"Maybe it's for the best." I whisper.

"What is?" P'Bright asks.

"If he doesn't remember me." I say softly. "I might let him escape..."

It was lie, I wouldn't. The minute I locked the door and threw away the key I knew I wouldn't let him go, even though it took a little time for me to admit it. My fangs ache, I need blood but I only want Beam, everything on fire as I smell my blood.

"What do you mean escape you bastard?"

I look up to see Beam glaring down at me, wearing doctor attire and holding a sharp scalpel.

"You look like I broke your heart; you pass out in my arms, bleeding. Yo will have to replace Kit's carpet." He stabs something in my back. "You ruin my brilliant sympathy plan and now talking about escape. You don't get to do me and leave, you vampire!"

"Beam..."

I try to stand but P'Bright stops me again.

"Didn't I tell you not to touch other people's property?" Beam points the scalpel at him.

"I think I will stand near the door." P'Bright moves away.

"You can't make people fall for you and then say I'm letting you go for your own good like in the damn sappy films Kit loves. And why the hell did you have time to put on aftershave?"

Did he say fall for you?

"It's not after shave." P'Bright smile.

"What?"

"Beam...gently..."

"Silence." He tells me. "Who told you to get hurt? If it's not aftershave what is it?"
