TW: Panic attack

They drop them into the small tank.

Roman's brain is going 38357.miles a minute.

Roman's brain *quickly*: Gotta get out of here need to protect Patton danger danger too small can't get out need to get out gonna die Patton's gonna die gotta get out gotta get out can't breathe can't breathe what's going on need air can't breathe.

Roman sees black spots. That only increases his panic. He feels himself sinking as the blackness takes over. (This doesn't make sense as Patton is there but I guess Roman couldn't hear him over his panic)

Patton saw Roman freaking out and quickly but gently grabbed his arms, frowning in worry. Patton: Roman? Roman! You have to calm down, we're going to be okay, I promise

. He did his best to soothe him, pulling him into a hug and rubbing his back soothingly.

Patton: Can you match my breathing? Come on... Slowly he got Roman to match his breathing, and mumbled encouragement as he did.

Roman: I'm sorry Patton. I should have protected you...I instead left you alone just so you could get taken.

Patton: Aww Roman, it's not your fault, you couldn't known this. Your face...

There was already a big bruise forming on Roman's tan face. Philip walks in the room.

Philip: There are going to be buyers here a week from now. If nobody buys you I'll put you on display understand?

Roman: Sicko. You're insane.

Philip: Want to see what happens if nobody buys you? Janus,Zlyer bring it in!

Janus and Zlyer pushes another tank into the room. He was skinny but there is something Roman recognizes in his eyes. Then his birthmark...

Sorry that it's so short but there will be longer ones in the future
