Losing control

Gwen's POV

I felt warm, very warm. I heard a slight mutter from across the room but ignored it. My body felt numb but I couldn't recall why. My eyes began to flutter open as I heard a door slam.

"TENNYSON" a voice yelled from across the room. "DON'T YOU KNOW WHEN TO KNOCK".

My eyes were open but squinting slightly to try and figure out where I was. I saw a brunette in a bright green jacket and sparkling green eyes approach me with the contents of a smoothie in his left hand.

"Ben" I whispered to myself. He noticed this and smiled. Kevin must've heard me cause he was approaching me too. I struggled to get up. The blankets on top of me felt so heavy, I could only get part of my body up before I fell back down onto a soft pair of arms holding my head and stroking my hair. I winced at the pain of attempting to get up.

"Hey its alright" the voice holding me said. My eyes were starting to close. I felt an ice-cold hand holding my hand. I could smell the smoothie even as I began to fall asleep again.

Kevin's POV

We waited for her to fall asleep again. She still looked pale and not the good kind. I ran my fingers through her hair as Ben held her hand as we both looked down at her.

Ben was the first to make a move, over to the bin to dump the large smoothie he had just consumed entirely in less than a few minutes. I looked at him disgusted. How he could drink those liquids was beyond me. I heard a beeping and looked up. Ben's plumber badge was going off.

"What now Tennyson" I sighed.

"charmcaster" I turned back to me. "we've gotta go"

"but whata bout Gwen" I say in a harsh tone. Avoiding eye contact.

" I don't see her moving any time soon" he says bluntly and leaves.

" I sighed and put and placed her down, back onto the couch gentle.

"I'll be right back" I say to her and ran after the brunette, Hoping the event wont take so long.

Gwen's POV

I began to wake back up again. there was no noise. No Kevin. No Ben. I begin to sit back up again. this time actually managing to. I look down at my body and notice I'm wearing a large black t' shirt, which smells like greese, oil and BO. Gross, but I didn't really care that much. I couldn't see my teammates any where and began to worry. I might as well look around for them. I take one of my legs out of the blankets and onto the floor. It felt like ice. I take my right leg out and place it gently on the floor next to left leg and start to stand. As I place my weight on my legs a massive pain rushes through them. I scream from such intense pain and fall to my knees. My breathing becomes heavy and I struggle to stand back up. I look down at the ground and constantly wince at the searing pain emulating from my stomach.

I clutch my stomach and fall harshly to my left hand side. All the air escapes out of my lungs.

"HELP" I start to scream but no body comes. I start to whimper and shut my eyes.

"PLEASE, SOMEBODY HELP ME" I whimper one last time.

I look down at my stomach and notice a light emulating from the large gash. It starts to go brighter and brighter and the pain becomes to intense. I look around the dimly lit room to find something that can help me, when I notice a mirror about 5 metres in away in front of me. I stare at my reflection. My eyes were glowing orbs of white, my stomach had a piercing light emulating from it but most of the shin was help back by the black t' shirt that laid waste, wrapped around me form. I notice that my whole form is pale and my ginger hair darkening into a deep red colour.

I let out another whimper and laid my head back onto the floor. No ones coming to save me, especially like this. I let a tear roll down my cheek, I notice my cell on the table and begin to crawl over to it. I struggle to pick it up as I make my mind up to who I can call.

Ben's POV

We had just finished with Charmcaster and her rock creatures. She kept asking where Gwen was, it started to get annoying after such time. We called the other plumbers to take her away to the Mel Void.

Kevin rushed to his car eagar to get back to Gwen. I tried calming him down. Telling him that she's ok, she's safe, but he keeps yelling back at me, blaming me.

Scene change

We were finally back at the garage and Kevin bursts in the door, almost tearing it to pieces. He looks over at the couch Gwen was sleeping.

"WHERE IS SHE?" furiously yelling at me.

"I DON'T KNOW"

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FALT TENNYSON IF WE HADNT OFF LEFT SHE WOULD'VE STILL BEEN HERE" he jabs his finger accusingly into my chest.

"AND IF WE HADNT OF LEFT PEOPLE COULD'VE BEEN KILLED" I swat his finger away.

We started bickering like this for a while now until Kevins phone rings.

"WHAT?" he yells furiously.

He passes the phone over to me and walks over to his car.

"Hello" I say into it

"Ben, its your Grandpa, Gwen's in hospital you might wanna come over here".

Gwen's POV

I rang grandpa up deciding it was the best choice to go with. Hes probably the best choice right now as all the others would freak out. When he came picked me up gently and told me everything was going to be ok. He carried me to the 'Rustbucket' and set me down in the back seat, he put a blanket over me, tucked me up as I quietly drifted off to sleep.

When I woke up I was in a hospital bed. Grandpa was next to me stroking my hand with his thumb as the doctor came in. he was a blue three-eyed alien with a lab coat on him and a stethoscope wrapped around his neck.

I raised one eyebrow up and looked at my Grandpa.

"He's a special kind of doctor Gwen" he replies to me, knowing what I was about to say.

I look back at the doctor and notice that he doesn't have feet, instead a tail. I rest my head back down on the pillow, the gown wasn't too comfy and I really didn't like the idea that I had been stripped down. My head was throbbing like crazy. I winced my eyes shut. Grandpa noticed this and stroked my hair.

Max's POV

"Everything's gonna be alright, Gwen" comfort her. She smiled back at me but, she winced falling back on her pillow, eyes shut.

"She's going to be ok right" I turn to the doctor.

"Well I've got some good news and some bad news, which one would you rather hear first".

"Your Grand- Daughter is not doing so well, Mr Tennyson. I'm sorry to say this but the antodyte which was dormant before, is now awake and it's destroying her body"

"Will she be ok" max replies softly

"Her energy levels are off the charts, her body cannot contain this much energy, I'm sorry."

"Is there anything we can do"?

"She will need plenty of rest in the mean time, try not to make her do anything stressful, this type of transformation can be extremely painful, try to make sure she's relaxed and not moving around to much."

"Can't we stop this, she's so young".

"I'm sorry"

I turn back to my grand- daughter; she must've heard all of this. This kept on shifting, trying to cover her face; she looked like she was on the verge of tears.

"And the good news" I say bluntly, keeping my eye on my granddaughter.

"She will be fine after the transformation is complete. A perfectly healthy young antodyte."

I lower the rail bar down and pull her up to me, so her head was laying on my legs. I begin stroking her again.

"shhhhhh" I gently lean towards her, rubbing her arm careful not to hurt her.

The doctor begins to walk out but not before saying "im sorry but we cannot interrupt the transformation, she could die if we do"

I nod my head.

"I rang Kevin and Ben, they'll be over shortly"

"p- please don't tell them, Grandpa, please" she whimpers into me, tears staining my geans.

She begins to drift off to sleep again.
