Welcome to Gaia! ::

Trevor scowled, "Dammit Akemi, you need to tell me or Stephan whenever they hurt you. You know we'll deal with them. Even if they threaten you to keep quiet, it's a lot smarter to just tell us. Trust us a bit, would you?" he said, gently letting go of the boy's chin and eyeing the other scars and bruises with distain. Those damn scientist were beginning to get on his nerves. Darrel shook his head, gently rubbing Akemi's back as he clung to him, quietly murmuring things such as, "It's alright." and "You're fine." over and over again. Even though he was a major hot head, he was still better at comforting people better than the others. Diana was still sitting in her chair, afraid to move. She knew that the scientist were very interested in both Akemi and her, since they were the weakest of the group, what with him being frail and small, she was young and just as fragile. That and because they were mutated with animals that not many have used in mutation as well. She couldn't help but eat more and more, gaining the hiccups and clearing her throat, "T-Trevor, wh-what would you -hic- do if we told you? To the sci-hic-entists I mean?" she asked, looking up at him with wide and scared purple eyes.

Stacy had exited her room after a moment, her clothes had changed and her hair was up in a different style, her eyes were still only half open and she didn't really show much more expression than exhaustion, "Is he alright?" she asked, sitting down in a chair close to the three males, hugging her knees close and letting her head rest atop her knees. Darrel nodded in respose to Stacy, and Trevor went over to Diana, sitting next to her, "Well, first I would make sure that they got the message 'You're dead now for touching them.' and then I'd make sure that they'd be too intimidated to hurt you again. Sure it's easier said than done, but I'll make sure it happens, noi matter what." he said quietly.

For a while, all was quiet, no sound from any of them, and hardly any movement as they waited. They sat there quietly for a good hour and a half, then Stephan came in through the metal door he'd left, his face hidden from then by his hair, "Stephan! Are you al-" Diana called, jumping up and beginning to run to him, but she was stopped by Trevor just before she left the safety of the white line. She looked at Trevor dumbfoundedly, then looked at Stephan longingly, wanting to make sure he was okay. She didn't like when they hurt Stephan, he was like the big brother she'd always wanted. For a while, Stephan stood there silently and motionless, then he slowly walked over to them, obviously hiding a limp from them as he put on a brave, but weak, smile for them, "It's alright. I'm okay." he called from about two yards from them, his leg was killing him at this point, so his speed wasn't the best.

By the time that he'd made it past the white line, Diana bolted to him and glomped him, burrying her face into his stomach due to his height and her shortness, "Stephan, are you really okay? They didn't hurt you did they?" she wimpered, looking up at him, but to her horror, he was panting harshly and his face was pale with a light sheen of sweat over his features, his eyes shut tight as he used a nearby table for support, "I-I said I was alright... don-... don't worry about it." he said, and at this point he was just trying to keep from wailing out in pain rather than putting on a tough face for them. Trevor got up quickly and walked over, "What the hell did they do to you?! I've never seen you in so much pa-" "I said I was fine, dammit. Now just drop it." he cut of Trevor's hushed hiss with a quick growl as he glared at the table, still holding on to it's edge as if it were life itself, his knuckles had gone ghost white from his tight grip.

Darrel would have gone over to Stephan, just he didn't want to wake Akemi, and when he looked over at Stacy to have her go make sure Stephan was okay for him, he found the seventeen year old fast asleep in the same position she'd sat in. He rolled his eyes, looking over at the three hussled together, "Oi, Stephan, you o-" "What happened to Akemi?" he cut of Darrel before he could cut to the chase and he limped over as quickly as he could, "He's not hurt is he?" "No, but we found a bunch of scars and bruises that he'd been hidhing from us." replied the bunny boy grimly. Stephan's eyes grew wide as he looked at Darrel with shock and disbelief, "You did? Why'd he do that?" the young man couldn't hide the consern and worry in his voice as he leaned down to look at Akemi better, gently moving him to find the bruises and scars just out of sight, but they were there alright, and that had pissed Stephan off, "Sh*t! Why didn't I notice?!" he said to himself, beginning to bang himself up for it, "Stephan, none of us noticed, don't blame- hey, you alright?" Trevor asked, looking at Stephan with alarm when he didn't snap back, and found that it was because Stephan had passed out and he was beginning to fall to the ground. Trevor's eyes grew and he just barely caught him, but the sudden movement and weight of Stephan caught Trevor off balance and he ended up sitting on the ground with Stephan's shoulder's im his lap, his head hanging backwards off the ege of Trevor's lap, "Stephan! G-get a hold of yourself! You call this alright?" he called.

Darrel was too shocked by Stephan's fall to worry about being as gentle as possible with moving Akemi from him. but he was gentle enough that he'd only wake up the boy at worst, "Stephan!" he said with alarm, but before he could do much more, he was called by the same femal scientist that'd called Stephan, and his body froze, his ears loosing their normal perkiness and falling to the sides of his face as he looked over at the woman. He slowly walked over to the door, hesitating as she stared at him with a cold blank espression. Then, just as Stephan had, Darrel had disappeared behind that metal door.

Name: Elliot
Job: Scientist
Age: 21

Akemi collasped on the ground, too exhausted to care anymore about what the scientists would do to him. He didn't even acknowledge the fact that he was lied to earlier as this was far too brutal than what he heard was planned for him. Of course, it wasn't unusual. He was always lied to. It didn't even faze him anymore.
A scientist gently picked him up and kissed his forehead lightly. "Hello my little bird."
Akemi looked up to see his face. "Elliot," he said and leaned closer to get comfortable in his arms. He soon fell asleep.
The scientist smirked as he carried him out of the room and in the dining area where the group was.

Elliot smirked as he stood at the edge of the white line. "Why do you care anyways about what I'm doing with him? You can obviosly see that he needs some rest. I'm just bringing him with me into my room so he could get a good rest." He smirked even more. "Are you jealous?"

Elliot smiled. "You know what happens if I decide I feel threatened. There are so many scientists that want to harm you, and with this state, you won't survive." He held Akemi with one arms as he lifted Akemi's chin up. Slowly he brought his lips to Akemi's in a kiss and looked up to see what Stephan's reaction was.

Akemi's eyes fluttered open as he stared up at Stephan's face in surprise. "Who are you?" he asked suddenly and pushed himself away from Stephan. He landed on the floor and swiftly dusted himself off. "You creep! What are you doing to me?" he shouted as he looked around frantically. Akemi ran over to Elliot and hugged him. "Oh Elliot. That man was scary.... I only long to be in your arms, not in the arms of a stranger..." Elliot kissed the top of his head. "It's alright now. I'm here." Akemi looked up at him with shining eyes. "Oh Elliot! I love you so much!"

Akemi turned his head away from Stephan. "Hmph, don't say my name so casually!"
Elliot patted Akemi's head. "It's okay dear." He just smiled as he was lifted up. "I didn't even do anything to him. He just found me better than you." He gave a knowing smile before smirking and holding onto Akemi tighter. "Now, now. Akemi's sensitive to violence. You wouldn't want to scare him, now would you?"
Akemi turned to face Stephan. "Don't you dare hurt Elliot! Or I will..... I will...... I'll come up with something though! Don't think that you can hurt him so easily!"
