Welcome to Gaia! ::

A clone of Jane and a clone of John down the hallway until they reached room VIIII . John slammed the door open and stepped in ducking as a vase flew over his head. Jane walked in behind him.

"N, calm down, it's okay."

Jane said as she sat down next to the patients bed and gave him a tray with cookies on it. John began taking notes on the patients reaction. N, that's what they had called the patient. John took out hit stopwatch and looked at it.

"Still not time..."

He mumbled as he went back to taking notes. N looked at the cookies then offered one to Jane. She politely took it. Then he looked at John and hugged the tray.

"No cookie for you needle boy...."

N said in a light but firm voice. Clearly N didn't like the shots one of the other clone gave monthly. Time flowed differently here, it was slowed a lot.

"He's getting better... still unstable though. We can't take him in to one of the lesser hospitals."

John said as he set the clipboard down then took a seat next to the bed as N bit into a cookie.

"But we can't leave his here either. Why is he in such bad condition? When the other's showed up after... well you know, they took a few days to fix."

Jane said. John mumbled then said

"They were not as bad. N, he was wounded when regenerating, his heart was crushed, he should be dead, we were lucky to salvage even a fragment of him. Getting his whole new body... it's like winning the lottery. Plus the mental wound... he is the last of his kind, his own friend, a man who he spared, killed him. He took the biggest burden of all. We have to restore the memory of a whole race, and him..."

John was about to continued when N spoke up

"I fine, we go to Six, tell Six, I live-"

"No N, you are still to weak, we can't even get you into a wheelchair, just relax and wait, in time we will go just not today. I will send out clones trying to find more doctors, just go back to bed."

John said as he and Jane got up and left. They walked back down the hall to the front desk were John gave a clone of himself the clipboard. He pulled Jane aside and looked around to make sure no one was listening, a pointless action, they were everyone there. John frowned and said

"Look, he is getting better but not at a fast enough rate, I will go into town and ask Six for doctors but... I'm not sure he will make it... he might-"

"He will be fine, I have faith in his wife, she said he survives this." Jane said stopping John from saying his sentence.

"When do you plan to tell him she is still alive." John asked

"I don't that would likely destroy any chance of recovery Ten wouldn't want that..." Jane said sadly. "Now about his powers, Time travel and control remains intact but the others, they seem as broken as his heart is, I am not sure what he keeps and what we will have to replace."

"Leave his power be, soon they will return." A new voice rung out in the room. A female in a white silk dress with he blond hair pulled back into a pony tail said as she walked towards then with her hips swaying from side to side.

"Ten, it's not safe to leave them, things could go wrong, he could end up human, regeneration is stable so if he dies soon it will happen again but still." John said becoming lost in though. The blonde girl was Ten she was one of the original Numbered Warriors, if things went wrong she would takes Nine's old spot as the last.

"Just trust me John, get the doctors and keep Six in the dark about the patient, make sure Xenon keeps the secret. They can visit him seeing as he has changed, but don't let them see him, he might break." Ten turned and looked around. "I must go... he is waking up again..." Ten said as she vanished. John and Jane looked at each other and ran back towards the room. No rest for them, none was needed, none was wanted. They had to repay Ten and they knew it. Saving her husband was a start.

Jane looked at John then Xenon. "Follow me and keep your voice down. I am Jane, and that is John, we are his only doctors for now. His wife drops in from time to time to advise us and she should be here soon. Stay quiet to be sure he can't hear you. His mind is fragile." Jane said as she lead Xenon down the hallway to N's room. He stopped him at the window and gave him an earpiece then she put one in and walked into the room. She would ask N all of Xenon's questions because he could not enter the room without putting N at risk. Before entering she said "It is important you do not say his full name." Jane said as she walked in and sat next to N. N was eating cookies from before. He offered Jane one once more but this time she did not take one.

Ten appeared next to Xenon She was in a black dress now. She had on a blue eyeliner and black lipstick. For most people it would look bad but she pulled it off perfectly. He hair was curled now instead of being in the normal ponytail. "It always makes me sad to see him like this..." She told Xenon.

Ten smiled. "All of are people do it once they die, he hasn't though, and due to how he died he is worst then the rest of us. He was wounded when regenerating and well... Jane and John think he won't make it. I have faith in my husband though." Ten said as her smiled faded. "He carries the memories of our entire race, and the burden of time travel. His mind is broken and they don't know how to fix it. We are brining in doctors from all over but still he is getting worst. I am Ten by the way."

Ten looked at the ground. "He has his reasons. Don't try and attack him, there is another with him, a girl. If you want information you will attack her. Or you can stay here and help with N. Either way once you leave your memory will be wiped. It is highly important that you don't tell anyone, and a memory wipe is the only effective way." Ten said as she sat down. A vase full of red roses appeared on the night-stand next to N's bed.

N remained still and silent. His eyes were closed and his breathing was slow. It is impossible to describe what was happening in his head. He had images of thousands of different lives flying around. He had to pinpoint them to the people they belonged to. The closer he got to his own memories the more broken things became, they turned from lifetimes in groups to many different lifetimes broken together. For a brief moment he heard a girls voice. A voice he hadn't heard in a long time. He heard Ten. N sat up instantly and his eyes snapped open. He began one long scream and continued the scream without moving from how he was. Then he stopped and looked at them "Xenon, T-" He was cut off when he fell back asleep.

Ten lowered her hand after casting a calming spell on N. "We need to leave his room now, if that happens again it will be worst." Ten said as she stood up and walked out of the room. Jane and a clone of John ran into the room and began treating N as fast as they could. The scream had been made up of many voices. He was far from healed.

Ten smiled and patted him on the back. Within on pat she had erased all of his memories from this place but implanted the thought that he should leave Eight alone. She wiped his memory and left him thinking Nine was still dead, the hospital did not exist, that everyone he had met never existed. Then she pushed him into a portal. It was vital he didn't remember this. To him his memory would simply be of a girl with blonde hair telling him about Eight. Everything would be fine. That was the lie she put in his head. When he was gone she sat down and John and Jane sat with her. "We are working on it... his body is physically perfect at this point, his powers have returned and we are able to give him new ones. The problem is he still lacks strength of mind. He can get up and walk around but not for a long time. Within the year we can take him into the higher populated areas. We will push him around on a wheel chair, but what about you? What will you do? You know he can't see you without breaking." Jane said and asked.

"Within time he will heal in a month or so of this places time, only a few days for the others we will take him outside. He will see many old friends but realize he can't tell them he is alive. It will be fine. When it is time, I will tell him I am alive." Ten smiled and they all vanished, including N.
