Nooo Lilly! That's what you get for a slip of the tongue! JET WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! Review!
(Still in slow motion)
Lilly was falling, blood pouring out of the holes in her chest, to the deck of the lighthouse. Jet showed no regrets in face as he held the smoking gun in the air, still aimed at her.
Before she reached the ground, beams of light came through the holes in her chest. Little lights that looked like stars, twinkled in the lights. Instead of falling down backwards, she was brought back to her feet. Instantly, she sprung on Jet and putting a needle in his back. He grew limp and fell to the ground, her landing on top of him. She got up and teleported the three of them back to the EPF.
Tears in her eyes, she and Ember dragged Jet into the HQ's infirmary.
"Hey, what happened to him?" The doctor asked.
"I tranquilized him. I just brought him here so when he wakes up, he'll be in a safe place incase something happens."
"Ok, but why did you do that?"
"I-...something happned to him. She couldn't control what he was doing. Don't worry about that though. I can figure it out."
"Ok..." The doctor responded doubtfully.
"Just send him to his office when he's good to go." Lilly said leavin the room.
She dried her tears on the way to her office where she was met by Ember.
"Woah Lilly! I saw what happened at the lighthouse...WHAT THE HECK?!"
"It was the nanotech."
"The nano what now?"
She took off ger shirt to examen the spots where the bullets had once hit her.
"Do you think the nanoits inside the bullets saved you?"
"I never programmed those specific one to do that. It's like they're getting minds of their own." She said putting her shirt back on. "It's possible that they recognized me as their creator and saved me or something."
"How could they have recognized you though?"
"DNA code." She sighed painfully. "There's so much I don't know. The letter, my dad, my sister, there's definetly something wrong with Jet, how the nanoits saved me...UHHG it's so stressful." She plopped her head on her desk. Just then, the doctor peeped his head through the doorway.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat. "Nothing was wrong with Agent Jet pack Guy. He's back in his office now."
"Thank you doc." Lilly reaponded. He nodded and walked away.
"So what are you gonna do about him."
"I have and idea of what happened to him. I don't know why, I don't know how, but I have an idea. I need a blood sample." She jumped from her chair and got a small syringe out of a supply cabinet and left. She walkd down the halls of the HQ while Ember filled in G on everything that happened. Lilly appeared in the door frame of Jet's office.
"Oh my god Lilly!" He said getting up and walking to her. "I'm so sorry." He embraced her in a hug and let her go, looking at her.
"I'm fine honey." She said.
"You aren't even bleeding?"
"It's like it never even happened." She said lifting up her shirt to show him there was nothing there. (Yeesh! She's not flashing him it's just like..her stomach part.)
"What happened?"
"I'm not sure yet. There's so much I don't know yet." She said giving him another hug. This time she took blood from the back of his neck.
"Ow! What's that for?"
"Nothing, Guy. It's ok." She kissed him on the cheek. "I love you."
"Wait, Lilly?" He tried to stop her from leaving. "What's happening to me?"
"I don't kn-"
"What's wrong with me?!" He raised his voice.
"I HAVE to find out." She said then sighed. "It's gonna be ok honey." She said staring deep into his eyes and getting lost in them. "I love you. Everything's gonna be fine." She kissed him and left with the blood sample.
Later, in her office, she dripped a bit of blood on a tray hooked up to the computer. Different codes showed on the screen and Lilly quickly started analysing the data she had recieved. Sfter a few hours of constany sciency smart stuff, she found her guess was in fact correct.
"Hey, Guy can you come here? I'm in my office." She said through the intercom.
"Sure, hun. On my way." He walked through the agency while rubbing a spot on the back of his neck that had been sore for the past few weeks. Probably since one of the last times they came back from Protobot Island.
"Hey, whatcha need?" He asked leaning over her in her chair and putting his hands on the desk in front of her. He gave her a quick kiss on the head while she wrote down a few last things.
"Have you had any random cuts or anything?" She asked.
"Mmm..yeah now that you mention it I've had this sore spot on my neck. It used to be a cut." She stood up and looked at it. It was redder than normal and there was a scar.
"You were posioned again." She said jotting down some notes.
"What? How?"
"I'm not sure. That I'm still trying to figure out."
"Who do you think did it?"
"I don't know." She thought for a second. "I can find out" She said suddenly jumping up an walking around her desk to a table behind Jet. She punched in some numbers and a video stream appeared on the screen. It was Jet in his office.
"You hacked the cameras?"
"Nope. It's the nanotech. They can see certain things. They must know that I had targeted the Protobot and knew these guys were no good either and recorded them. They're smarter than you'd think...way smarter."
They watched the day Jet pack Guy was attacked in his office. When he tried to defend himself, the minibot's hand came off and knocked him out. The roboy proceeded to cutting the back if Jet's neck slightly and pouring a small flask of liquid on it before crashing through the wall and leaving.
Lilly entered the scene and that's when the nanoits powered down.
"Sooo... I was poisoned by a nanobot..." Jet clarified.
"Mmhmm. I just don't know what they used or why they did it and how they got you to hallucinate about Melissa. It could be the poison connecting to the activity of the brain and briging main traumatic expirences to life and making them into nightmares almost."
"When can you figure it out? Can I die from this?"
"I don't know. A few more hours of research should do the trick. And I don't think so. It's been in you too long to be fatal."
She looked up at him. He looked worried. She put one hand on his back and the other on his shoulder, standing at his side. "It's gonna be ok honey." She kissed him on the cheek. He sighed and pulled her into a tight hug.
"I know."
"I'm worried about you."
"How?"
"I don't want you to have another hallucination alone. You even had one when you were in public this time. The poison is working deeper into you."
"I'll tell you what. I'll sleep on the couch in the corner of your bedroom, just incase. Would that make you feel better?" She nodded.
Good news: Jet didn't murder Lilly. Bad news: He's going crazy.
