I watch Dr. Cunningham examine while lifting CR off the ground.
"Damn! He passed out!"
I feel him panting hard and he looks so pale.
"He is burning up! This is really serious!"
He looks at me and his eyes are filled with worry. He carries CR and takes him to a spare room so he can stabilize.
"That scream was filled with so much….distress." Hank said with seriousness.
I looked at Maria and I could see anger in her eyes.
"Maria! Why did you say that to him!"
"He killed so many people and he doesn't remember at all!"
"That doesn't give you the right to say things like that to him! Look at him! Your outburst causes him to have a breakdown and now he's in critical condition!"
Her eyes softened. "Dr. Tachibana, your right. I'm sorry that happened."
I nodded. "Let's wait in the conference room for Dr. Cunningham." Hank and Maria nodded and we head to that location.
We all sat there for about an hour; waiting. Then, he walked into the room and closed the door. "How is he?"
I asked. He sat down and looked at all of us with seriousness in his face.
"He is stable but in critical condition. I had to put an oxygen mask on him to get his breathing normal. His fever was dangerously high and is still at that level."
I was shocked and so was everyone else. Hank then asked, "Anything else?"
Gabe nodded and said, "I was examining him and he had many scars on his body."
"Do you think they were self-inflicted?" Maria asked with concern. "No. I looked up his family history through his prison number but his name was unknown. His parents were alcoholics and started to abuse him at age 13. The reasons were that he got sick often and spent a lot of money on hospital bills so they blamed him. This is all he could remember about his past."
"What! You're joking!" Maria yelled.
"No, and to make it worse, his parents then died in a car accident about 3 years later. He was sent to an orphanage and was adopted but no one knows who did."
The room was filled with silence. How could someone go through all of that?
"Well, let's go check on him." Hank said and we headed out the door.
