Iain was on the way to Altomare together with Latias in the disguise of a young woman.
He was surprised as he saw the restaurant in that Latias wanted to eat. They sat in and after they gave their orders Iain went to Latias and asked, "Why did you want to go with me here? Wouldn't be David as your trainer be a better choice?"
"Of course but… I try to get his attention by this…"
"I thought you had his attention… so far I know you are one of his best Pokémon…"
"I mean attention in another way…" answered Latias in a blush and Iain understood now what she meant.
"You like him?" She nodded in embarrassment and Iain laughed, "I heard that some Pokémon would have feelings to their trainers but I never thought to meet one of this type! And don't be ashamed… it is your way to feel about it… but I cannot tell if you will get your goal by this… and don't forget… he is a human…"
"I know…"
"But I am sure someday you will have your chance…"
"Thanks!" answered Latias.
After they eat and Iain paid the bill they went back to the Hideout. It took them a while until they reached the entrance and as they entered the Hideout flew CyMe around a corner and Iain gasped at the sight of her.
She was covered in cuts and bruises and had tears in her eyes. Something bad must happened.
"CyMe! What is wrong?"
"David… he is badly hurt… it was my fault… he needs medical help or he wouldn't make it…"
Iain understood so far and followed CyMe together with Latias to the place where David was. He didn't pay any attention about what happened now instaed he moved, together with a set of Chanseys, David to a lab and Iain prepared himself to operate on his friend.
After a while he found out the injuries were worse. He couldn't do much for him but his eye fell on the open file by David's computer. He took a quick look and stared at the sample of the Serum. Since he knew here is nothing to loose he took a needle and injected David an amout of the Serum into his veins.
Then he did the best to close the wound of David's chest and made sure he wouldn't die from blood loss. But he knew it was only a temporally answer… then the serum doesn't work… he would loose his friend… and moving to a hospital was impossible…
Iain set down in a chair and hoped the best while he fall asleep.
At the same time, CyMe was crying loudly in one of the living rooms while HX-1 and Latias tries to comfort her…
"It was only my fault… if I had heard to David this wouldn't happen…"
"It isn't completely your fault… you didn't know what was in the room and David should have known that it wouldn't stop you when he say the room is forbidden…"
"And it is for a part David's fault because he created such a monster but didn't destroy it in the first place after realizing his wrongs…"
But CyMe didn't stop crying. "But I caused this incident in the first place!"
"And I am sure David would forgive you… and for now we cannot do anything… only to hope…" stated HX-1 and leaned back in the couch.
