Ro slowly opened her eyes. She felt hazy and the light hurt her eyes. 'Where could Zee be? I can't hear him snoring. Maybe he went to get some breakfast, or maybe he left.' With this thought she tried to sit up, but felt a stabbing pain in her stomach. Then everything came back. She sank back onto the couch and let the tears roll down her face. Then she heard an argument in the hallway.

"So you're saying that this is my fault! I told you what would happen if you moved that dial! As for how long this took, I couldn't help that. The field fried the system, locking me out. I did the best that I could. Don't blame me for the…" Then there was a coughing fit. It sounded like someone was trying to cough a lung.

"Don't touch me. Leave me alone. Just take what you came for and get out of my house before I have to throw you out."

With that Agent Bennett and the other agents entered the room pushing a cart. Ro opened her eyes and watched as they moved across the room. Bennett saw that they were being watched. "Consider yourself lucky. Ms. Ash over there has secured your freedom. All charges against you have been dropped."

"What about Zee?"

"Zeta is in our custody. It will be examined to determine what happened."

Then Bennett left the room. Ro tried to get up and follow them, but she felt too weak.

"You shouldn't move. You'll feel it later."

Ro turned to look at the person who just spoke. "You must be Ms. Ash," Ro said, her voice dripping with anger.

"Call me Mina. I hate being called Ms. Ash."

"How could you do that to Zee? What did he ever do to you?"

"I didn't do anything to Zee, what I gave the government was a synthoid. Now please be quiet. I don't feel very well."

"You don't feel well, what about…" At this moment Ro noticed there was blood running from the corner of Mina's mouth and that she was shaking.

Mina noticed Ro looking at her mouth. She wiped the blood away. "I suffer from a degenerative illness, too much stress causes some side effects."

"Why did you do that to Zee?" Ro asked, crying.

Then Ro heard a familiar voice. "What did she do to me Ro?"

She turned around to see Zee standing in the doorway. His face looked the same, same black hair, same innocent expression on his face.

"Miss Rowan, allow me to introduce my brother, Zachery."
