Wendy stepped back from the sleeping boy. Her arms crossed. She just couldn't understand why Lucas would feel the need to do this. The crew had been in and out to see him in the last few hours, Piccolo stayed the longest. The thoughts that came from him were full of guilt. Wendy wanted to comfort him, but she knew he would know she had been reading him.

"How is he?" Bridger said softly from behind her. She twirled around to him and tried to muster up all the courage she had.

"Not good." she looked back to the boy and then to Nathan, "Anorexia Nervosa. I've managed to stabilize him but. He's developed anemia, his throat has been deteriorated by the vomiting. The good news is his teeth aren't decayed. I've taken the liberty of contacting a psychological institution on the eastern coast of the United States. We can get him there in a couple of hours on a shuttle."

"Do it, whatever it takes." Bridger sighed and walked over to the sleeping boy, his hand brushed a few strands of hair out of Lucas's face and smiled, "He needs a haircut."

The shuttle was packed and loaded, ready for departure. Broady insisted on driving and Piccolo and Dagwood also insisted on coming with them. An hour after they had left SeaQuest, Lucas opened his eyes.

"What's going on?" he looked around and then down to the IV in his arm, "Where are you taking me?!?" he rose from the stretcher and ripped the IV from him.

"Lucas!" Wendy cried out and tried to go to him. He flipped the stretcher over and stood behind it.

"Where are we going?!?" He screamed and looked to Tony.

"We're taking you to a doctor Lucas. You're sick."

"I'm not sick! Look at me! I'm fine!"

"Lucas, I don't want you to die, and you will if you don't go." Piccolo tried to reason, "And I hate to do this to you.." He jumped over the stretcher and grabbed Lucas's arms, pinning him down to the floor and holding him there, "Will you stop this? Will you please?"

Lucas couldn't breathe and he couldn't move. He just nodded and Piccolo let go slowly. Lucas sat against the wall and closed his eyes, "I'll go.."
