(035's POV)

    I watched (YN) get guided away, forcing my anger down. Simon cared about that kid, so I did as well. 

Simon sighed quietly, glancing at me in a way that made our hearts shatter simultaneously. I'm not going to let them do this to us again. I promise I'll make this work, I vowed, realizing that I had sent him the thought. 

I could tell he was giving me a weak smile, and I blinked lovingly at him. "Enough of this, you. We are going to take you back to containment now." 

I glanced at doctor Cool, feeling my forced smile finally shift into a large frown. "I swear to God if you take us away from each other I will kill you."

I had no hesitation in my voice. I was telling the truth, and he knew it. Dr. Cool barked a loud, unsettling laugh. 

"Even after years you are so naive. No, we aren't going to separate you- Not yet anyways." He said it briskly, seeming to not really care.

I felt Simon grab my hand, and I had a fleeting moment of wishfulness that he wouldn't wear his gloves so I could feel the touch of his skin.

Cool's gaze flicked to our hands, and I squeezed before letting go. "Then what are you going to do?" I asked, feeling curious and then regretting it.

"Study how you act around each other. See what you do in certain situations."

"And what about (YN)? Are they gonna be okay?" Cool shrugged. "I don't completely know. All I know is that if they keep up their behavior punishments will be in store."

I saw Simon tense.  "Care about 9476, do you?" Cool commented in interest. Simon nodded, his gaze narrowing. 

Cool whispered to his team for a moment before speaking. "Go alert Jack of our change in plans," he ordered a few of the guards, who nodded and ran off.

"Change in plans?" I asked, and Cool nodded. "We- I have decided to include 9476 in our study." I paused. I couldn't tell if this was good or bad news. 

Luckily, Simon saved me.

"I do not want them included in this if it means harm to them," he said, full of a passion that I thought belonged to me, and me alone.

Cool would have smiled at us if he could. "As I said, there will be punishments in store if they keep up their erratic behavior." 

I realized that would always be his answer. Gently, I brushed my fingers against Simon's, and then slowly shook my head. 

He nodded in understanding. "When- will this start?" I asked, getting my words back. "Very soon, we just need to get 9476. For now, we will go back to 049's containment."

I couldn't help feeling a strike of joy. I got to stay with Simon! I was caught off guard when he grabbed my hand. Then he gave me a knowing look, and I grinned.

At last we stopped at Simon's little 'lab' as he called it, and were escorted inside. I was moving slower now, as my host was really on his last legs.

As Cool examined the room, I pulled Simon out of earshot. "What are we doing about (YN)?" I whispered, my nerves tied into knots.

Simon shook his head. "Convince them that it's no use fighting back. Keep them safe. I don't want to risk them getting killed. Unlike us both, they are human. They have no weapon. They are fragile."

I nodded. "You know, if they heard you saying that, they would get extremely mad?" Simon nodded, letting out a small chuckle.

"Yes, I am aware. But It's true, and you know that." I nodded again. 

"Don't worry. I understand."

(YN's POV)

     I heard shouts of alarm as I made my way to 035's containment. The guards must have called for help or something, because more were there. 

"How- did the other guards- know what had happened?" 187 panted, her eyes clouded with so many emotions it made my head hurt.

"I'm not sure," I confessed, slowing down. "It's crazy what these people can do." And crazy how they look. I thought back to the guy with the face-contraption-thingy.

187 nodded. "Are you sure that 035 can help? Wont it need a host?" I shook my head. "He already has one." 187 let out a murmur, before  I skidded to a halt.

"This is it." Instead of making something as complicated as a keycard, I just made a knife and stabbed the slot.

After a bit of sparking, and a few persuasive punches, a beep sounded, and the door slid open. I heard some nasty hissing and sparking sounds as we passed through the doorway.

As I looked around, I realized that all the bodies had been taken away. "Whoa," 187 whispered, her eyes scanning the bloodied floor. 

"Do you see anything?" I asked, my blood running cold. 187 shook her head. "Nothing out of the ordinary. It's just- weird in here."

I nodded, my own skin prickling. As I walked to the far side of the room, I realized that there had been no guards. "I don't think that 035 is here," 187 murmured quietly.

I cursed in my head. "Okay, let's go to 049." Cautiously, we made our way through the winding hallways, and I used little drops of blood or black liquid as a guide. 

At last we made it to 049's room, and I facepalmed. Of course there are guards, stupid! You just BREACHED!

I stepped up to the guns with ice-filled veins, my instincts trying to drag me away with rough hands. The guards seemed taken off guard when they saw me, fumbling with their guns.

I raised my hands slowly, and 187 did the same. I could feel her shaking. "9476, w-where are your escorts?" I blinked in confusion.

"Escorts?" slowly, I placed my hands at my sides, letting out a small breath. The guards glanced at each other. 

"Doctor Cool sent guards to bring you here. Where are they?" I recalled the shouts I had heard as I ran to 035's containment. 

I frowned. "Most likely in the infirmary." I said honestly, trying to keep my voice calm and friendly.

It didn't work. "What did you do?" Guard A shouted, and I took a step back. "Nothing! I swear!" Like all adults in this situation, they didn't believe me. 

"Put your hands up." Guard B ordered, his gun now aimed for my chest. "Jesus, okay," I muttered, obeying reluctantly while 187 flinched.

The guards came up to me, one grabbing my arms and the other grabbing 187. "Escort SCP-187 back to containment." The guard holding 187 nodded, tugging her arm.

I stared after them, and tried to give her an apologetic glance. I winced as the guard tightened his grip on my arm, pulling me with him to the keycard slot.

The door slid open, and I couldn't stop a grin from tugging at my lips.

035 and 049 stared at me, before 035 hobbled over to me and wrapped his arms around me.

Okay as I promised, here is chapter 10. Sorry I took so long and it sucks. 

Anyway, point out any mistakes or don't, I don't really care :P
