Emerald: Awake
The knife would go up and down with the movements of the chest that indicate the slow and steady breathing of the unknown victim of the knife.
One brave soul walked past the other one that stood still in confusion, lifting the white bed sheet of the knife revealing a sleeping woman.
Pink long hair with soft curls adorned her face and upper body, her pale skin almost glowed in the poor lighting in the room. Her body seemed protected from the conditions in the lab and the bed sheet, she appeared to be fine, as if she had just decided to take a nap not long ago… with a knife on her chest.
A sleeping beauty.
She looked peaceful considering the few vines and thorns wrapped around her wrists, neck, chest and all around the knife almost covering it from sight. She wore what looked like a wine coloured sleeping gown.
After the initial shock of finding a person asleep with a knife clearly stabbed on her chest where her heart should be, the woman of the group approached and slowly removed her glove from her right hand, extended her arm to reach the knife and held the handle tightly.
The vines started to melt away as she pulled the knife before the melted slime would reach the sleeping beauty's body, dropping her arm to her side, all but the knife melted and the woman looked at the knife with wonder. The knife was immune to her poisonous body, a good quality knife considering some metals would corrode if she touched them.
All eyes were on the wound caused by the knife, a green glimmer shone on the slit as it closed without a drop of blood or mark left behind causing more confusion in the group.
The knife had a bit of blood still on it as it dripped to the floor, a gloved hand gently took the knife without touching the woman's skin and rapped the knife in a clean white cloth and pocketed it safely.
The sleeping beauty took a deep breath before resuming to her normal breathing, as if the knife being removed just helped her sleep more comfortably.
"Should we…?" – asked a confused redhead.
"Can we?" – added the dark haired man.
A light noise was heard from the sleeping beauty as her left hand that was lying next to her face was stopped by the vines and the thorns looks too close for comfort on her naked writs, a breath left from the group as the woman stopped pulling and rested her hand.
"… Now what?" – timidly asked the woman who pulled the knife, the brunette was confused about why a woman would be left here like that.
The group looked at each other, they couldn't just leave the woman here, alone in a dark and cold underground laboratory.
"She could know something about Isaac" – whispered the silver haired man who took the knife from the brunette.
At this statement, the sleeping beauty slowly opened her eyes. Green orbs that resembled sparkling Emeralds…
