Mallory took a few steps gaining her strength as they walked. "Thank you Tempest…"

Jake then noticed that there was a door way a few feet in front of him.

Out of that door emerged Tempest and Mallory, with Tempest right there beside her to support her weight if needed as they walked, though it seemed Mal was gaining strength back in her limbs.

" oh hey guys, Mal are you okay?", Jake asked concern on his face as he ran to help Tempest.

"I feel shaky." Was all she said to Jake. It wasn't that she didn't trust him, she just didn't want the memories fresh in her mind.

He held her up. " Well let me help you, do you want to sit down?."

"Just want to get to the med-bay." She mumbled gripping his arm.

He helped Mal walk across the Library, "Is the med-bay where you guys had me?"

"and that's where we heading let's…" His faltered a bit when he saw the book Jake had been reading "…let's get her there."

"yeah it's in that direction." He muttered

"I think so." She muttered using a hand to hold her head. "It's close?"

"Real close." Tempest confirmed as they exited the library.

"Good…" She mumbled shutting her eyes.

Jake helped Mallory to the Med-Bay. " there, now…tempest…i need to tell you something…later.." He looked down then Walked to his room.

Mallory lay down on the medical table and held her head.

"Alright well I'll be in the lobby after this." Tempest responded and called out to Charlie, who walked into the room with a yawn "Already? Do you guys like getting hurt or somethin'?" he looked to Mal and asked "So what happened this time?"

"My head Is killing me. It's because of one of those things." She groaned still holding her head. "It went away but now it's pounding."

Charlie sighed a bit "We have a lot of things that could give you a migraine. Co-"

The sample in the lab." Tempest interrupted

"You let her mess around with that?!"

"I asked." She groaned sitting up.

"Well what happened, did it cut you?"

"No… I got in it's head…" she mumbled:

"It actually has something to get into?" Charlie had a baffled 'this is beyond science' look

"Yup- according to my mass head ache." She groaned. "I honestly might slam my head against a wall and knock myself out at this point. That's how o feel at least."

Charlie went through a pocket in his lab coat and produces a vial of a silver liquid. He dipped a finger in the liquid and put a streak across her forehead, as if he was finger painting.

Jake walked around his room, thinking of ways to save his daughter…That's when it hit him…he'd say he had to leave…and hope to the gods that no one followed him.
