Disclaimer: I do not own GeneratorREX – if I did the show would definitely be ranked R rather than PG.
Warnings: None
A/N1: Takes place right after "written in sand" and it's my take on why Rex seems to trust Caesar despite Van Kleiss' warning.
A/N2: "To sleep the sleep of the just" means to sleep soundly without worries.
Providence Dark Legacy
The sleep of the just
By your-biohazardous-friend
It was late at night and Rex had been wandering aimlessly around Providence corridors. Van Kleiss' accusation toward his brother were ringing in his ears loudly and repetitively like an alarm, preventing him to properly fall asleep. Before teenager could focus hard enough where he was going, he ended up before his older brother's pod laboratory. After a short struggle he decided to come in and confront his brother once more about the Abysus' ruler's warning.
To Rex's surprise he found Caesar already fast asleep, curled up, buried in a makeshift nest of blankets and pillows made on the floor of the pod. The younger Salazar sat cross-legged next to him and inspected his frame. Caesar's was breathing slowly and regularly. From time to time, the scientist's fingers twitched slightly but it looked like natural order of things rather than a manifestation of an subconscious anxiety. His face was calm, relaxed, lacking his usual concentrated frown he had while working. Without a doubt older Salazar was sleeping the sleep of the just.
Rex took a stray pillow from a stack of cushion his brother slept in and laid down next to him. The teenager sighed relieved when a heavy burden was suddenly lifted from his chest. Because if Caesar really had caused the Nanite Event he wouldn't be able to sleep so peacefully, right?
