Eliza was sitting in here already, rocking back and forth every now and then and letting out deep hacking coughs as if trying to scrape something right out of her body. She was shaking all over and as white as a sheet.
The twins walked in slowly, carefully guiding the mercury ball into the infirmary. "Any thoughts?" one of them asked.
The Emergency Medical Hologram Hank McCoy was bussying himself around eliza's bed. He was setting up a device which would diturb the blood becury in Eliza's system and cause her to mass it one direction or the other. There was a bucket beside the bed for her if she needed it. "What is your medical emergency?" He asked Junior and the Twins as they entered.
"We're ok."
Junior told the hologram. He directed his attention to one of the cabinets and spoke to the twins. "I saw it once, I think it was over here." He continued rummaging threw the cabinets until he finaly found what he was looking for. It was a large glas jar with an electronic lock on the side. "Do you know the code?" He asked the EMH Hank.
"The containment vessel was designed before my inception at this facility." The EMH replied.
"Ok, old school then."
Junior said and channeled the energy in his finger. He held it over the lock and concentrated. After a moment the lid popped open with a hiss. "This should hold it."
The twins were strained as they moved the mass to the container. Making sure that it wouldn't splash, the two slowly placed the blob into the container. They were panting hard and their arms dropped quickly when the blob was set down.
"I could have done that"
Eliza mumbled into her arm, still rocking slightly and staring at the floor. She sounded normal, no strain in her voice, but she was still in shock.
Junior Snapped the lid onto the container quickly and zapped the side of the jar with his finger again. "I hope that holds." He stood back from the container examining it, waiting for something to happen.
"Can anything be done?" one of the
twins asked, regarding the friends they had lost.
"About?"
Junior asked. It hadn't really sunk in that Veronica and Kale had just died .
"V-veronica... and Kale..."
Eliza mumbled, staring at the floor still and still as white as a sheet.
"Oh."
Junior said casting hi9s eyes to the floor. "Um... I can sense people's energy signatures... there's is gone."
"Ohh..."
the twins faded and looked down.
Junior didn't say anything. He just watched the blood mecury in the jar. He'd seen team members die when he was with the Young Avengers. Somehow he felt like it could never happen at home.
Stumble!
