Kay's POV

I wake up with nurses surrounding my bed. One of them  immediately flashes a small flashlight into my eyes making me grunt and try to close my eyes but they force them open. Once they finish this torture, I rub my eyes aggressively- feeling them itch so bad. 
"....can you...hear?" I notice the nurse tries to catch my attention and ask me but my brain is pounding and I feel adrenaline rush through my veins, 'what is happening?'  I panic and start to shake violently while looking around hysterically "Get.. out, I need to GET OUT!" my body lunches forward as I yell in extreme panic while trying to take out all the IVs connected to my arms.
A male nurse grabs both of my wrists and the other nurses hold my head down- while they try to inject me with something 'no!' I yell in my head "DON'T TOUCH ME!"I yell but to not avail, they keep holding me down, restraining me- I feel my throat becoming dry and I feel my blood pumping,  I can't stop panicking- they're holding me like they did before, 'I hate hospitals, Someone please get me out of here  I can't stop them- please...' "make it stop.." I say with a hoarse voice as I feel a familiar touch on my chest, I can't open my eyes, I don't want to see them "Kay, look at me".. the voice speaks- Smile. 
I slightly open my eyes.. still feeling them pulling the IV's back into my arms and I shake again "What is going on?!" I hear a female voice.. my love.. Aria!
"Aria!" I yell- she can help, she can get me out of here! "Please tell them to let me go!" I scream at her, trying to bring myself closer to her but I get pushed back down into the bed each time- Smile grabs Aria's hands and leads her away from me, no no no! bring her here! she will get me out! "just another episode..." I hear him mumble- what episode?! this is real, they're holding me hostage! 
I start feeling nauseous and dizzy- I want to sleep.. I need to stay awake and fight but I feel the warm embrace of unconsciousness .. I let my eyes roll back into my head.. 'shit'.

Smile's POV

I hold Aria's hands while Kay is injected with Diazsepam to calm him down and get him to lie down while they're treating any open wounds from his sudden outburst.
I look down at Aria and see her confused and worried face glaring at the med workers, I wrap my hands around her in a reassuring hug "we should probably head out and let them work" I say with a tired voice, Aria glances between me and the workers and sighs "Yeah.. but we will sit close by in case something.. happens again"she says with a monotone tone and we leave the room.
-Time skip- 
I glance down at Aria's head resting on my shoulder and smile at her sleeping face, she's so peaceful now... I glance towards Kay's room across from us and see him glancing at the window 'did something happen that we're missing and it triggered this reaction.. or is it just a panic attack ...' I've been repeating the same question over and over in my head and I can't seem to stop the constant loop of doubt- let alone actually catch a nap so if something does happen I won't be useless and tired.
Right as I was about to close my eyes, finally feeling reassured that I will be able to get answers to my questions, I see Axel turning into the hallway me and Aria are in, his face says it all 'there is someone else'.
As I am about to get up and walk up to him I remember that Aria is resting on my shoulder and cringe at my sudden movement making her turn away from me- although, disappointed that I can't witness her beautiful resting face any longer, I need to get things under control, and the main thing is figuring out how many are surrounding us from the "Sun" clan or if it's  only the 'snake' and her little helper.
I get up from my sit shake his hand, looking around to see if it's safe to talk about the Sun Clan subject, thinking no one is around as I am about to open my mouth to start speaking,  Axel signals to me to stop- ' we're not alone after all' I nod and try to mention for him to guide my vision towards the "target" that prevents us from discussing our plan.
I follow Axel's gaze and see him glance between Kay and the nurse that is treating his wounds 'don't tell me..' I hold my breath slightly and reach to check the hidden blade under my right sleeve.
I signal to Axel to watch the halls and I make my way into Kay's room, silently closing the door behind me, as I am facing the closed door I can hear the nurse shuffling to the other side of the bed- further from the door .'so you're putting Kay between us, huh? obviously you're not being smart doing that, right now you are number one on my suspect list of little roaches that are walking around MY territory' I turn around and I am surprised to see her.. patting the sweat away from Kay's forehead with a cloth. I keep one hand behind my back to make sure that the door knob in my grip is locked in case she tries to escape. "so... miss..?" I trail off unsure of the nurse's name and she doesn't even acknowledge me speaking to her "Nurse!" I yell  and her gaze snaps away from Kay's restless expression to me.
"O-oh.. sorry Mr. Klinge, I didn't hear you enter the room" she answers with a slight smile plastered on her face.
"It's okay-" I say with a fake smile on my face,playing along "I was just asking how Kay is doing? has his condition gotten any better?" I ask with monotone tone, "Well.. Mr. Kenlin surely has seen better days but he is recovering just fine, although.. he keeps requesting to see his 'mentor' which I would like to assume is.. you, sir" she explains- gotcha.
"Why would you consider me his 'mentor' surely you know that OUR mentor is  currently away taking care of .. how shall I explain is, 'roach' problems we have going on right now" I say- still keeping a calm facade.
She gulps and looks at the clock above the bed "oh.. it's noon already- I should bring lunch, I will send my assistant to watch over him while I'm gone if it's okay with you, Mr. Klinge" she goes on as she walks to my side and tries to get past me to the door but I maintain my grip on the door handle and with my other hand I push her away from the door, sending her stumbling backwards as I take steps towards her "you see... you got yourself caught with 2 things. First, nobody, and I mean, nobody, knows my actual real name since I cut my past behind me and second of all, all moon clan citizens, especially those working with the military, like you supposedly are, know that me and Kay shared a mentor, I was never his mentor." I say as I grab her wrist and press firmly on it, hearing a snapping sound indicating that I managed to actually break her wrist ,she yelps as  she holds back tears "now.. 'roach' would you like to explain how many more of you are out there  or if it's just you and the 'snake'- Hildrith?" She tries to move away, reaching for the tray with tools- 'fuckin' roach' , I swiftly grab her other arm and bring it closer to my side, pressing on it but not as firm as before.
"S-sir.. there must be a misunderstanding- I-I am new here" she tries to say, lying directly to my face,' that snake'  "how interesting, I haven't heard anyone mentioning anything about new medics arriving to our base. Besides, there is absolutely no way you're either from the moon or water clan since no one should know my actual name".
As I answer with a slight annoyed tone her face expression changes from pleading to regretful "should've kept your big mouth shut in the first place, would've maybe saved your ass but you're spitting nonsense at this point which gives me a headache and it leaves me no choice but to get rid of you" I say with a slight smirk, her expression changes to fear and I flick my wrist to let the hidden blade out and bring it  close to her throat but stop as I hear shuffling.
I glance behind me and see Kay waking up, clearly from a bad dream- I grab the nurse's arm and make her rise to her feet and stand behind me.
As Kay opens his eyes he's met with my face "you're pretending to be calm.. what's going on?" he asks with a sore voice as he coughs a bit, cringing at the pain.
I let go of the nurse and she rushes to the door, trying to get it  to open despite knowing it's locked- I groan and throws a pocket knife at her, making her collapse and yell from pain.
Kay's eyes widen and he sits up but I push him back down and keep my hand on his chest to make sure he doesn't try to get up again.
I keep my gaze at her to make sure she doesn't get up and rush towards us.
 "S-Smile..?" Kay lets out as his eyes flicker between me and the nurse in front of us, shaking slightly, clearly having a hard time understanding the scene in front of him.
"You should go back to sleep" I say with a monotone tone and he sends me a questioning glare.
I sigh and sit down on his bed, reaching my hand to feel his forehead but he flinches and backs away. I take my hand away from him and look at him confused about the reaction, his eyes are still focused on my hand.
I try to bring my hand to his forehead again but he buries himself deeper into the pillow to back away from me, I am getting impatient and set myself on top of him- pinning his hands onto the bed, forcing him to keep an eye contact with me.
 "What the hell is wrong with you?" I ask pissed and impatient as he tries to break out of my grasp.
I pin him down even more and he lets out a shaky breath and his eyes frantically search the room, I bring one of my hands to his forehead and while I check his fever I fix his gaze at me and search his eyes to see what the hell is going on with him. 
As I reach my hand away from him, Axel opens the door and pauses, trying to "process" the scene in front of him "dude, let him go, he's clearly uncomfortable you pervert" he laughs slightly and sets himself down near the nurse, checking her pulse. 
I groan and get off Kay's bed and walk towards Axel, pissed. 
I glance back at Kay who's about to say something but closes his mouth and looks away from us. I shrug and join Axel, "well..?" I ask, making him look at me and puts his hands in a 'I don't know' manner. 
I pinch the bridge of my nose and get up, mentioning for him to help me to carry her away from the room, he nods and grabs her legs while I keep my grasp under her shoulders. 
As we exit the room, carrying the nurse, I glance at Aria who's sleeping and then at Kay, who has a troubled expression with a slight blush across his face. 
I smirk and lead Axel towards the direction of the seller I locked Hildrith in.
