"…extra GC strands in the DNA."
Logan opened his eyes slowly. A bright light shone down on him, provoking him to bring his hand up as a shield. His eyes moved to the left, his gaze landing on the girl with the pink and green hair. She was still unconscious. She looked so peaceful, despite everything that was happening.
He turned his eye to his left. The blonde haired girl lay on the table next to his. He watched her squirm. She was bounded to the table. She caught him staring and glared. Next to her table lay the other boy. He was also awake, and talking to the men. He recognised them as Tony Stark and Bruce Banner. He's insane! thought Logan.
It seemed that the blonde was the only one restrained. Logan figured that she caused them the most trouble.
Tony and Bruce moved toward Naomi's table. Bruce went to scrape some skin cells off of her arm when Naomi burst to flames. "Don't touch me! Leave me alone, you monsters!" she screamed. Bruce had pulled his hand back in reaction to the sudden blaze.
Logan heard a quiet moan sound from his left. The watermelon head was awake. She sat up and looked over at him.
"Symphany-May," she introduced, offering a hand, but leaning a bit too far forward. She fell forward, provoking laughter from Tony.
She blushed madly and giggled nervously. She was about to pick herself up when Logan offered his hand. May gingerly took it, allowing him to pull her up into a standing position.
"Thank you," she said.
"No problem," Logan responded.
"What's this? Do we have a couple already?" someone said from behind them. It was Stark.
Symphany blushed again while Logan laughed and shook his head.
Bruce came up to stand next to Tony, holding a rather large syringe.
Oh god, a needle, Symphany-May thought. If there was one thing she couldn't stand, it was needles. Just the thought of one made her sick
"Ready for the DNA extraction?" Bruce asked the two.
Logan glared daggers into Bruce while May's face turned almost as green as her bangs. She clapped a hand over her mouth and turned around, trying to stop herself from throwing up. She gained both Tony's and Bruce's attention.
Logan looked behind him and saw the brown-haired boy helping the blonde out of the restraints. Once he was done, he signalled to Logan to keep Stark and Banner distracted. Logan nodded lightly, watching the other two sneak out of the lab. He turned to Bruce and Tony, forming a plan in his mind to distract them and maybe get Symphany-May out of this too.
Then it struck him. Logan suddenly collapsed, nodding his head in the direction of the exit to Symphany. She took the hint while Banner and Stark knelt down next to him.
"What happened?" Bruce asked gently, putting a hand on Jayden's forehead.
"I- I feel dizzy. Really dizzy. And my stomach hurts," he answered. He watched Symphany leave out of the corner of his eye. He stalled for a few more minutes, hoping that the others would make if far enough away before he would make his escape.
Logan picked himself up off the ground, claiming he's feeling fine. He pretended to lose his balance from his 'dizziness' , stumbling to the side and pushing both men. Once they were about two feet away, he dashed. Darting toward the exit, he knocked down a few lab instruments.
Running down the hallway, he ended up facing a large window. He looked out and saw the ocean. Wait, the ocean?! There was no chance of escape now!
Once they were well away from the lab, Naomi began laughing like a crazy person. That was until she noticed what was outside the window. The ocean. From where they stood, light footsteps were heard from her left. It was water boy!
"Hey Logan," the watermelon-head called, waving him over. Logan, hearing her, made his way toward the group in a half-jog, half-walk.
"Okay, first thing's first. Introductions." Naomi was getting impatient. She felt that not knowing people's names and calling them 'watermelon-head' or 'water boy' just made it confusing.
"I'm Symphany-May," the girl with the pink hair introduced.
"Logan," said water boy, shaking everyone's hand.
"The name's Jayden," the boy who helped Naomi out of the restraints replied.
"Naomi," Naomi said, spinning around to make sure that there was no one else around. Nobody was.
Naomi turned to Jayden. "Isn't your ability air?"
