Kaito walked down to the hospital, his mind heavy. He wanted to check on Taros and Dr. Dave, to see if there had been any progress at all. Time was running out. If they did not find a cure soon, Kael would turn into something else, something no one could stop. The thought tore at him, because if that happened, he would never forgive himself.
This time, he was ready to do anything to save Kael, even if it meant giving his own life in exchange.
His phone beeped. He pulled it from his pocket and saw a message from Hiro. He wanted to take Kael to the Pit. A frown formed on his face. No matter how much they feared what Kael might become, Kaito could not accept him being treated like an animal, shut away and isolated.
