A week passes…
Tyne had gotten more withdrawn from everyone. She refused to eat, drink, or even rest. She stayed by Tyler's side each day waiting on him to wake up. Fletch walked into Tyler's room to see Tyne swaying. " Tyne!" Fletch caught her. " Let go of me." Growls Tyne weakly. " Tyne you need to rest." Murmured Fletch. Fletch looked up seeing Tyler's hand twitch. His body moves and he lets out a small moan. Tyne smiles. " Baby?!" She hugs him gently. Tyler opens his green eyes. " Mommy?" Tyne smiles. " I'm right here baby." Tyne kisses his cheek. " Mommy it hurts so much." He whines. Tyne begins to cry. " I know it does baby. Mommy is working on a cure for you." Tyler falls back to sleep again. Tyne begins to sway softly. She collasps. Fletch lifts Tyne up carrying her back to their bedroom.
Bastian notices Ino was smiling to himself. " What has gotten you in a happy mood?" asked Bastian. Ino chuckles. " Oh my friend we have found out just how powerful that girl is. She is far more than I thought she would be." He chuckles. " I've still got time to prepare." He turns to Bastian. " Go and rest up my friend. We have much to discuss and train for."
Tyler woke up again hours later. He was hungry. Andrew came in with a tray of food. " Here you go kiddo." Tyler smiles happily and digs into the sandwhiches. Andrew watches him chuckling. " Slow down you little piggy." Tyler finishes laying back. " There that should at least give you some of your strength back." Tyler nods falling back to sleep. Calley came in. " How's my little patient?" Andrew smiles. " Good he has just eaten and fallen asleep." Calley beams. " That's good. I still want to see how long he keeps the food down. If he keeps it down then that means he doesn't have any traces of the poison left in his system." Andrew nods watching as Calley took Tyler's vitals. " I'm still worried about his fever." Calley nods. " Yeah me too. I might have to try a different fever medicine on him then." Calley changes Tyler's bandages. She sees him wake up immediately vomiting onto the floor. " Easy lad." Whispers Calley soothingly. " Better out then in I guess." Tyler sniffles whimpering. Calley tucks him back in. She puts a wet towel over his forehead. " Calley." Calley smiles gently. " Yes dear?" Tyler whimpers. " Will I ever get stronger?" Calley nods. " Of course. We just got to take care of your fever and then you will get stronger soon enough." Tyler falls asleep.
Andrew pulls up a chair watching over him. He begins to clean his claws as he watches him. Calley sits by Andrew. " So how come Tyne never told me about you?" she asks. Andrew pauses. " My sister doesn't like to talk about her past not one bit." Calley nods knowing what that was like. " I'm not complaining or nothing." Andrew winks. " What are you getting at Calley." He adds winking. Calley turns around blushing. " Oops you got me there." She chuckles. " Do you live by yourself? Or have someone special in your life?" Andrew shakes his head. " Nah I don't have a home."
He looks out the window. " Back where I used to live I would have someone waiting for me. But when I moved out here I lost all of that. There isn't anything left for me to go back to." He whispered. Calley frowns. " that's too bad. I always have room at my house if you need somewhere to stay. Jackman is always looking for new recruits." Andrew looked at her. " What about you?" he asked. Calley smiles. " I've lived here for quite some time. I basically ran from home. Like you I don't have much for me back there either." Calley finished putting her equipment away and sat back down again. " I'll take you up on your offer then." He murmurs after a while. Calley nods and smiles. " that's great new I'll let Jackman know." Andrew cracks a grin and Calley feels her heart flutter a little.
Bastian walked into Ino's chamber. " Ino I heard you called for me?" gruffed Bastian. Ino turned away from his desk. " Yes of course Bastian. I have a very special job for you." Bastian raises an eyebrow. " Oh really? What seems to be the problem this time?" Ino smiles. " There's a set of armor that I need to have retrieved for me. I was wondering as sly as you are If you could retrieve it for me." Bastian tilts his head to the side. " So you want me to be your paper boy?" Ino shakes his head. " No no my friend! Not in that way the slightest. But I figured since you were the king of the dark you could get it without anyone noticing." Bastian sighs. " Fine I'll get it but tell me where it is." Ino grins. " Down by the west side of the sewer system. It's protected by a seal that has long since been broken." Bastian nods. " best head out then to get it."
Bastian leaves the Neponzato chamber ways and heads back out to the sewer tunnel ways. He kept to the sidewalks avoiding the water as much as possible. He wrinkled his nose in absolute disgust at all the smells. " Can't believe I'm signed up for this shit." He mumbles. " We are suppose to be getting Fletch not the girl." He growls. He finds the chamber Ino was talking about and enters it. There was a pedstale in the middle of the room with an armored figure standing on it. It had something in latin that read:
Finis omnibus diis solis (The end to all Sun Gods)
Bastian worked quickly to remove the armor from the statue. He grinned tucking it into his bag and tying the sword to his belt.
