(Scene clock tower)
Trip was lying on the sofa while Katie was dabbing his sweating head with a wet cloth as he tosses and turns unable to stop the torture going on in his head, all the while muttering words that had become barely audible. Circuit perched on the back of the sofa looking down at his maker, with as much of a worried expression as a robot could muster.
Jen and Lucas were going through Zagoa's mutant profile, trying desperately to find anything that would help. Wes was talking to Eric, who was watching Trip with curiosity and a slight amount of worry.
'How's he doing' Lucas called over looking up from the file
'Not good' Katie replied
'I don't know what's going on and frankly I don't care' Eric lied, he did care, no one even someone he didn't like that much should be forced to go through what looks like the equivalent of a stroke. 'I'm outta here' and with that Eric left, leaving Wes shaking his head, but he did manage one last sympathetic look at Trip.
'We could take him to a hospital' Wes came in with,
'Oh yeah that'll go down really well, erm excuse me but my alien friend is undergoing extreme psychic distress, is there anything you could do for him?!!!!' Jen instantly regretted the sarcastic outburst. One, Trip didn't like being called an alien, even if he couldn't hear her right now. And two, it was unnecessary; Wes was just trying to help.
'It was just an idea, what you got' Wes came back with, a little hurt.
'Well actually it says here in the files that Zagoa can't keep this up for much longer, like every other Xybrian and he will tier after extensive use of his powers'
Katie, leaving the cloth on Trips jerking head, got up and walked over to the screen.
'So you're saying we just wait it this out, and Zagoa will have to stop eventually,
'Yep and it shouldn't be to long either, hopefully, and then all we have to do is freeze Zagoa and it will be over, because he will have to make contact with Trip again before he can give him another...erm.erm episode' Lucas explained
Wes was next to Circuit, looking over the back of the sofa, at Trip. He knew that the robotic owl was just as worried as every one else after all; Trip made him and was his best friend. And Trip was always the one to repair him if he broke or upgraded him when the time came and now Circuit could do nothing but sit there and watch his creator squirm under extreme mental anguish.
'Don't worry Circuit he'll be ok; I promise we will get him through this' Wes placed one arm around the robots wings and gave him a comforting hug.
The towel that Katie had placed on Trips head covering his gem slid off and revealed a very concerning sight. Trips gem was faded and was not its usual bright green but now a dark dull shade of grey.
'Trips got Gem Burn' called out Circuit spinning his body and flying over to Katie, 'Trips got Gem Burn' he repeated as he hovered around her head.
'Oh shoot no' dashing over to Trip and kneeling beside his head, Katie very gently lifted up his fringe to get a better look at the problem. 'What's Gem Burn'? Wes asked with a mixture of curiosity and concern.
'It's basically when there has been so much stress put on to a Xybrians gem that it just burns out' Katie answered, Lucas reiterated with 'It's the same way a car engine burns out when there has been to much strain on it'.
'Is it bad'? Wes continued his questioning, Jen answered 'It will be if this keeps going on,' 'He isn't fully gone yet' Katie observed and told the others 'I didn't think it would happen this early' Jen said slightly confused. 'Unfortunately Trip isn't that mature, so he is still susceptible to early Gem Burn and other things like that' Circuit corrected her as he landed on the key pad and accessed Zagoa's files to have a look for himself.
Katie placed her hand in Trips and it responded by grasping hers and squeezing it very very tightly, with her super strength it didn't bother her at all. She picked up the now dry towel and threw it to Wes, 'Could you re-wet this for me please'? Wes nodded and walked over to the bathroom, Katie could here the water running, making old pipes, she started to stroke Trips hair and it was damp with sweat and water from the towel.
The water stopped, and she heard Wes return, she looked to him, and offered a frail smile, which he returned, as he handed her the once again wet towel. Katie opened it up and folded it differently, this time into a square, which she then applied directly onto Trips gem. This seemed to calm him as his head settled in to the pillows and his glowing eyes closed, thought you could still see their eerie glow shining through his eyelids.
Katie's hand once again found Trips, and she squeezed back this time hoping to let him know she was there with him, like always. Wes saw that she needed some time and he walked over to the computer scene and the others and continued to gain knowledge on the Xybrian race in general.
Katie was only vaguely aware of the talking group gathered around the picnic table, as she quietly started to talk to Trip not knowing if he could hear her or not, 'I'm sorry Trip, I'm so sorry, I've broken my promise to your parents, I'm so sorry, please wake up soon, please'
(FLASHBACK)
A group of people are gathered outside a large building, panning in we see that the Building is the 'Time Force Training Centre', and the families are those of Human and Xybrian.
A young Katie is surrounded by about 7 people, the 2 hugging her tightly are obviously her mum and dad, she is being patted on the back by presumable a brother, while words of wisdom, congratulation and care, are being said by the rest. Where as in contrast we see a young Trip, being held gently by a woman with long straight green hair, and then a rather tall man, with a short dark hair.
Suddenly Katie runs up and wraps her arms around a very nervous looking Trip, 'Come on Trip, we're going to be late on our first day', 'If you don't kill me first' said Trip finding it hard to breath under Katie's strong grip, 'Oh sorry hun' she said dropping him to his feet.
'Oh Trip I'm so proud of you, but you be careful ok' his mum told him, 'I will, don't worry about me, I got Katie with me' Katie jumped in with, 'Yeah Mr. And Mrs. Regis, I won't let anything happen to him, I promise' she with a smile beaming on her face, both the teenagers turned and ran to the entrance to the building, as while waves and shouts of encouragement were being exchanged from Katie's family, Trips Mother and Father, joined hands, and spoke to Katie mind to mind.
'We know you will Katie and thank you' 'Please don't worry, I will look after him, and that's a promise'
(END FLASHBACK)
Looking back down at her best friend, Katie said to her self 'but I couldn't keep it could I, please forgive me' Tears formed in Katie's eyes and started to fall down her cheeks when suddenly, Trips eyes snapped open and he flew upright as his scream echoed all around the clock tower.
