(Imperfection's POV)

Where...Where am I?

Everything is so blurry when I open my eyes, I can't tell where am I am at first, I keep rubbing my eyes until I can see clearly again. My vision becomes clear again, I look around, I'm in the Infirmary. I don't understand, was everything before just a dream? The last thing I can remember is that I was running away from...from something, but I can't seem remember what. What happened?

Maybe I can remember if I stretch a bit. So I pull the sheets off of me and sit up on my bed, but then my vision got so blurry again, I felt lightheaded and my neck suddenly began to feel strangely sore, I have to stay in bed. I lay back down and rub more forehead. Then my hands slide to my neck i feel the bandages-Wait! Bandages around my neck?

I remember now! I was running from Commander Cody and Captain Rex because Afen Te told them I was a clone, and I had a knife, I was about to use it to cut my throat but then...what stopped me? Or who stopped me? It's hard to remember, when I try, my head hurt a bit.

Then I heard the door open and footsteps, I turn my head to face whoever came in, but I stayed on the bed so I won't feel dizzy again. I saw a certain clone in plain white armor, Slick, he was also carrying a tray with him. Now I remeber everything, When I was about to do it, Slick was the one who stopped me, I could feel the blood in my veins begin to burn.

"Glad to see your awake. You were out for a few days." Slick said, putting the tray on a table, then he pulled a chair and sat down on it close to my bed. I didn't say anything to him, I only turned around in my bed, pulled the blanket over me head. But then Slick pulled it off my head. "Look kid, I know your still upset-"

"I'm-AUGH!" I couldn't finish what I was about to say, I was going to shout at him, but then the side of my through began to hurt, like broken glass was stabbing it's way into my throat, I gently touch my neck to try to soothe the pain. Slick tried to put his hand on my shoulder to see if I was okay, but I quickly pushed his arm away from me, the last thing I wanted was him getting close to me. "I'm not upset, I never was." I say gently, it hurt a bit, but it was fine enough for me to talk in that tone.

Slick looked at me like I was crazy. "Why-How can you say you were never upset? You tried to commit suicide! You got angry at me for stopping!"

I didn't want to discuss this any longer. "You wouldn't understand. You have no idea what I've been through."

"Like being abused for being a clone created 'wrong'?" My anger suddenly vanished, I felt cold all of a sudden, I wrap the blanket around me and turned back around to face him.

"You know?" I whisper to him, I felt stupid for asking it, I knew the answer, Rex or Cody must have told him. As expected, he nodded. "For your information, I didn't go through all that for being a bad copy. It was so I could be an exceptional soldier."

Slick stared at me with an expression I couldn't read. "But you just a child!"

I felt my anger rise again. "You don't get to say anything about that. Look at you, you look at a man in his early 20s, but your really, like what, ten? Chronologically, your a kid too. I know clones age faster than normal humans"

"How old are you?" I stare at him now. I think he was trying to counter what I said.

"Thirteen." I stated 'proudly', hoping he would drop that subject.

"In noraml years." He corrected me. I gave out a small sigh in defeat.

"...three." Than he stared at me again.

"How can you survive all of this for THREE years? Not alot of people could survive through all that."

"The low amount of food happen a while after I turned two, I turned-" Hold on! Why the hell am I telling him any of this?! He doesn't need to know about my past! I bet that was his plan all along, to trick me into telling him everthing that happened to me! I turned around in the bed again, facing the wall.

I don't think Slick was willing to accept this "Alright kid, I will not-"

"My name isn't kid." I gently snap at him, trying to ignore the stabbing pain on the side of my neck. "You know my name, it's Imperfection."

Slick repeated what he was about to say. "...Alright 'Imperfetion', I will not accept this silent treatment right now, I need to know what you went though-"

"Need or Want?" I snap at him again.

"Both." I hear him say, I was offically confused at him. Why does he want to know about my past so much, I already told the Commander and Captain every thing they needed to hear, he could just ask one of them why does he want to hear me say all of it? I began to feel a bit shakey, I need an escuse, anything so I didn't have to say anymore.

I turn back to face him once more. "Do you have anything I could eat?" I ask. He suddenly looked like he just remembered something, then he grabbed the tray from the table and gave it to me, it had food on it, at least I was sure it was food.

"I brought you this." He said "I thought you would be hungry when you woke up. Then when I reached to grab the tray, he used a hand to gently feel one of my arms. I didn't do anything, but I did jump a bit when he did touch a sensitve spot, a spot where a small wound was. I pulled my arms away with the tray in my hands. He didn't say anything more when he began to get up from his chair and walk away. I tensed up, I didn't like it when someone leaves without saying anything to me, It usually means something bad was going to hapen "The Captain and the Commander will be here to talk to you later." He finally said, making me calm down. I looked my arms, mostly the one he touched, though I was still curious about why he rubbed my arm, I decided it didn't mean anything. What was the big deal about my arms?
