Saturn opened the first aid kit and found the bandeges. She tried to wrap them around her arm, but it was hard for her to move."Scott...why don't...you go ahead and...talk with Theo?"she asked, still struggling with the bandeges.
"Sure," Theo shrugged, and walked off to the side, out of quiet earshot, but near enough to shout if there was trouble. "What did you want to say to me?" Theo asked, as he stood, dead eyes gazing around the landscape, looking for intruders, and finding none.

"Everyone dies eventually. Once you are born, you begin to die."
"That was not comforting either!"
"It is the way of the Creed. Usually our deaths are violent but quick."
Scott scratched his head. He hadn't really planned out what he was going to say. "Hey, um, I kinda noticed that, well, um, you are kind of an outcast, you know? And, well, so am I, and uh, I was wondering, if, er, we could, you know, kinda, uh, hang out sometimes, like, uh, be friends?" he stammered. He had never done this before, and he he didn't know what to do. He shivered and wondered what was going through Theo's mind. He would probably be steaming mad.

Saturn had managed to get the bandeges on. She saw Theo talking with Scott. She slowley got up and climbed into a tree, where she felt at home. "I... wish... they could stay safe.."she muttered. She fell asleep, the pain of her wound knocking her out. She hung limply on a thick tree branch.
Theo's eyes narrowed; this kid wanted a friend? "Don't you think, that if I were an outcast, I wouldn't think I deserved any friends? As it is, that is not the truth, for I just have never connected with these people. All of you are far too innocent and trusting of the world. You probably wouldn't find much solace in my company, if I did indeed speak more. To you, I'd be all cynicism, and supposed hatred of the world. Your happy view would be shattered." With that uttering of more sentences he had ever spoke in a row to any of the other children, he began to turn away.

"Wait!" Scott called after Theo. "You don't know anything about me, and neither does anyone. I hate the world and what it's done to me. If you've ever seen me before you'd know what I mean!" he said. Scott waited for Theo to hear him, hoping that Theo wouldn't ignore him and let him explain.

"You have no reason at all to hate the world," Theo murmured dangerously, the words carried over his shoulder by a light breeze. "You weren't used as a scapegoat by other experiments, you were never alone in the School, you never had your hopes crushed and trodden on, and you most certainly have never been absolutely, truly, alone." He was getting ready to walk off again, the slightest of his temper ignited.

Saturn woke up, hearing Scott's shouting. She walked over to him." A-are...you..o-okay?"she asked him. She didn't want a fight to break out.e looked angrey at Theo. "S-sorry....none of my buiss..ness."she walked away. He was upset, and she had probly pushed him.
ooc; Scorchie, you do know that we have speed healing right? Just reminding you. :)
Blaike sat herself down underneath a tree. Her head was pounding. She brought her fingers to her temples and began to rub. It was as if the pain never stopped. She looked over to Kit and he had a strained look in his eyes, she wondered if his was as bad as hers. She put her back against the tree and tried to sleep. But every time she closed her eyes, she saw what the machine back in the School made her see. She jerked her eyes open and walked over to Kit. "Just to let you know, if you ever want to shut your eyes for a rest, I'll take over. I doubt I'll be getting much sleep tonight."
