Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Hush, dearie, I don't want to actually think of the right potion." Nikolai murmured while eyeing a few more syringes.
Decius, on the other hand, was laughing in replacement of the average person's screams. His arm was steadily losing its skin to reveal the muscle beneath, and the doctor's smile widened with each excruciatingly painful second. He looked over at Michael when spoken to and gave him a happy snarl. "Be growing silent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he gladly spat. He was about to say more when he sense something behind him. He spun around and swiped the hand with the saw at Nikolai, who barely dodged in time.
"Dear me, you see, this is why I told you to hold him back, darling? We're oh-so lucky I'm limber!" Nikolai griped and dodged another swing of the saw. Growing irritated, he snapped his fingers and made a purple mist shoot at Decius' arm. He stopped at mid-swing when the mist hit him and smiled angrily as his arm fell limp from the Sin's numbing ability. "The emotion I am feeling towards you is the one of anger in a large quantity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he giddily seethed.
"Yes, yes, you hate me." Nikolai drawled while flicking the tip of the needle. He grinned at the two men then stabbed the syringe into Decius' shoulder. The psychopath winced and shuddered as the chemicals entered his body. Then his head slumped forward, and in his passive stance his blue hair began to darken to its mahogany brown. The smile dropped out of existence, and a stitchline stretched across his face diagonally. In a matter of minutes Decius had reverted back to Dr. Rieux.
The doctor remained passive and slumped for a moment. Nikolai was about to talk to him when the doctor turned his head to look at his injured arm. He stayed quiet for a moment then turned to face Nikolai. Because his hair wasn't gelled back, it covered his face, except for one narrowed eye. "You... idiot! I leave for less than an hour and this is what you do?!" he snarled, making the Sin shrink a little.
"My apologies, dearie, but you know how I am around science." Nikolai smiled apologetically while resting a hand on a cocked hip. He rolled his eyes when the doctor scowled. "Now, now, you can be angry with me later. Right now I need you to take care of her." he said and pointed to Kiyaka's body.
Rieux glanced over at her and stayed quiet for a moment, as if contemplating whether or not to actually help her. After all, what was in it for him? He didn't care about life or death, just as long as he could venture further into the world of science. Nngh, but he did take that Hippocratic Oath. Sighing through his nose, Rieux forced feeling into his good arm and brushed his hair over his head so that he could see. His eyes flickered to Michael. "You. Bring me a syringe with a green liquid in it and one with a golden one. Also, I want a bowl of water and a cloth, and a needle and thread." he said then leaned over to Kiyaka. "What kind of mess have you gotten yourself into now?" he grumbled.

Kiyaka Mayazaki

And look at that! Now she's asleep! Woooo, magic~

With the shirt up and the wound fully exposed, Dr. Rieux dunked the cloth into the water then began cleaning the wound. As he did so, Nikolai looked over at Michael and shook his head. "I'm afraid not, dearie. I was in a meeting when I received a phone call. They arrested my boyfriend because he claimed to have stabbed her, but I refuse to believe that. Well, and she's accusing me." he murmured and looked at her. Why on earth would she think that he had done anything to harm her? He hadn't even seen her in a few days.

The process took about an hour of steadiness and precision, though it wasn't a task Rieux was unused to. He finished sewing together the wound and set the needle back down on the nearby table. After cleaning the wound, Rieux sighed, pulled Kiyaka's shirt back down, and stood up. "She should be fine." he said while wiping his forehead with his sleeve. "Whoever did it was a messy stabber, the stab was deep but it barely missed her vital organs." He turned to face Nikolai. "She should be awake in either three hours or three days. Either way, she shouldn't be working for two to three weeks." he said. He awaited a response, but got nothing. Rieux blinked at Nikolai and gave him an odd look. The Sin appeared to be watching him, but he had a dazed look in his eyes, as if he were daydreaming. A vein pulsed at the side of the doctor's head and he slapped the Sin upside the head. "Pay attention! You wanted to hear her, didn't you? Just wait a few hours." he snapped whereas the Russian scowled.

"I'm afraid I've no choice, dearie." Nikolai shrugged. "I need answers, and Leon's being questioned at the moment." His expression saddened for a moment and he had to look away. Now there was Leon. Why would he possibly confess to something he didn't do? It just didn't make sense? Nikolai closed his eyes to think, recalling the day's events. There was their lunch with that boy, Leon's 'gift', then they parted ways and he got a call about Leon's incarceration, then... "Kiyaka." the Sin breathed and opened his eyes. He turned his head to look at the sleeping woman. She said that he was the reason she was hurt, so if that was true, then Leon... No, that still didn't make any sense! Nikolai had been in Hell, how could he be the one to stab Kiyaka?
Rieux seemed interested to know what was plaguing the thinner man's mind, for he was usually just an annoying, lazy complainer. He decided to question him later, though, and address Michael's questions. "Yes, she'll be out for a while, though." he said. His eyes traveled around the room until he saw Decius' 3DS sitting on Jace's bed. He never could understand video games like his other side, but the things he played were... interesting, in their own rights. Moving to the other bed, the doctor reached out and picked up the device, giving it a curious look through narrowed eyes.
... How does he open it?

"I'm not completely against the idea of... video games," He said the words with disgust. "but I don't like playing them. Some of them seem completely mindless. Then again, perhaps that is why Decius loves them so much." he mused. He glanced up when asked how long he would stay, replying with a snort. "I hardly stay as Decius for an hour before people start changing me back, so a few days. I need to make a new batch of transforming serums, anyway." he muttered and returned his attention to the device, turning it in every direction to see if there was a handle or a button that he could press to open it. He looked like a junior high student with a Rubik's Cube.
