Janelle POV
Me:Wait, so you're telling me, someone took Khalil's poison from his spinal cord implant and doubled it? How? Doctors who touched the wrong part became effected by it.
Gambi:If they knew what they were doing. The samples match up almost identical to the ones from Khalil's dart, yours only matches it in fundamental ways like Khalil's but that's where the similarities end. It's like an evolved virus. It's bigger and stronger.
I sit down and sigh. Great just what I needed.

I'm looking at myself again in these bright ugly white walls that never seem to get dirty!
"So lover boy is alive?"
"No, some bastard is using his poison."
"Sounds alive to me."
"Sounds stupid to me."
"Does it? Remember what I say is your inner most dark thoughts... I wonder if Lala is around." I throw a punch at her jaw, finally I caught her off guard. I get in her face.
"I'll bury myself in a pit of cement before I do anything with him willingly." She smiles with pink teeth before I'm thrown into the wall, I shake my head and crack my neck.
"Wonder how Khalil would feel if he ever found out you had sex with him. Only a few weeks after his death? I guess what the body wants the body gets. What would your father say if you didn't erase his memory?" I grab the pole up from the floor and she laughs.
" Oh we're back to the pole? I thought we got past this? "
" Nah, you've just pissed me off too much. " I pretend to swing at her side but change and slam it straight into her head, she flies to the wall and her blood paints the wall brains all over the place. It feels weird seeing yourself dead. I hear the other door open, but it's not burst open like the last one. I drop the bar and walk inside.
The room is a concrete Grey, it feels cold in here, the door shuts behind me and I look around. I hear shallow breathing in a corner I turn around and see nothing before I can do anything I drop.

I blink and look around, Gambi has a stick pin and it's inside of my skin, I frown and look at him.
Me:Really?
Gambi:You spaced out again.
Me:I see, you poked a whole needle in my arm!
Gambi:It's fine, I know you can handle it, the other two? Not so much.
Me:groans* Uncle Gambi I'm fighting something dangerous... Internally and I don't know how to win.
He looks at me and frowns.
Gambi:Is that why you keep spacing out? Your pupils get large like you're high... Do you think Tobias did something to you while you were out?
Me:I don't know, I lost my heart rate for like 2 or 3 weeks after that... I haven't been the same since. I just got a normal human heart rate back.
Gambi:That's impossible, you would be dead Janelle!
Me:Yeah I know! ask jen, she and dad noticed my pulse was hardly there. I did tests too, I did not have a heart beat Gambi, I basically lost all fast healing abilities during that time, the only thing I had were my powers.
