This is the boy?

He lifted his head to stare at a white haired man with a crown around his head. A woman with indigo hair stood beside him.

Yes, a pity he will have to be sacrificed to find the cure for the plague.

Why is it a pity?

He's Animus. He possesses very high Anima Relic alignment. He'd almost go perfectly with Asher or even with your Judah.

Hmm... indeed? Well, perhaps, with a little care, he will survive the experiments.

I hope so. He's quite a handsome boy.

He woke up, gasping for air. His body trembled, and he wrapped his arms around himself tightly, trying to control the shivering. He stared at his surroundings, not recognizing where he was.

Something warm covered his shoulders, and he started in shock, twisting his head to the side to where his captor was standing, holding another blanket in her hands. "It's all right," he heard her whisper, "No one is going to harm you here."

"I do not believe you," he replied back harshly. He tore the blanket from his shoulders as she backed away from him. He glared at her. "What is this? Part of the torture? Are you going to be both my torturer and executioner?!" He added accusingly, then smiled at her pointedly. "Or are you going to use your charms to get information out of me?" His eyes looked over her body rakishly from head to foot.

"Sounds interesting..." He jerked his head back in surprise as she moved closer to him, her golden eyes playful. She bent towards him until her face nearly brushed his. "I would enjoy knowing you more intimately," she whispered, her breath warm against his lips, then he felt the other blanket over his shoulders. "But; unfortunately, in your current condition, the only roles I dare play are as your nurse and doctor." She smiled at him and straightened, moving to a side table, where she picked up a tray and placed it over his lap. "I hope you enjoy your meal."

Hyuga stared at the large bowl of warm oatmeal, two pieces of toast, an apple, and a pot of tea with a cup beside it. ...What is this? A hotel?!

Yui was folding the other blanket when there was a crash behind her. She sighed softly and turned around. Not again. She glared at the mess on the floor and the cause of it. He did the same thing yesterday. After placing the blanket on the bed, she went to get the ready on hand cleaning unit. Now I know how Uncle felt...


He watched quietly as the mess was cleaned, and she went out of the room. Now, let us see what she will do. He felt frustrated, bedridden like this. From the waist down, he was firmly immobile, stuck to the bed. A magnetic beam- His thoughts were interrupted when she came back with a basin of steaming hot water and towels over her shoulder. ?! "What is that for?!" He yelped, as she placed the basin on the table beside the bed.

She smiled sweetly and held out a sponge. "...No!"

"What's wrong? Don't you want to play with me?"

"I can clean myself, thank you very much," he said stiffly, crossing his arms defensively. If she thinks I will allow myself to be treated like a child, she has got another thing coming...

"Strange, you weren't so shy yesterday..."

"WHAT?!"

Please be careful with this antidote, Yui.

Uh, don't you mean the poison, Uncle?

That too, but you have to take good care of its antidote as well.

Why?

Separate, the poison is lethal, and the antidote is a very good medicine in its own right, but when used together, they produce unusual effects.

What sort of effects?

Oh, nothing serious. It will cleanse the poison from a person's system if given in time, but the victim will not be quite himself for a day or so. Are you certain you need this, Yui?

Yes, Uncle, you know why.

... I agree with you. Let us just hope you will never actually use it.

He felt terrible. Hyuga groaned out aloud, and suddenly someone was helping him up into a sitting position and holding his head over a basin. Sometime later, his head was back on the pillow, and a cool wet cloth lightly wiped the sweat from his neck and face.


Yui was worried as she sat by his side, watching over him carefully. He had a worser reaction to the drugs than I thought... At least, he is sleeping peacefully now...

She watched as his chest rose and fell rhythmically. He looked younger when he was sleeping, that is, if he wasn't having a nightmare. He had those often, perhaps, it was because of the drugs.

Faint starlight, entering the room through the windows, gleamed enigmatically on his long ebony hair, spread across the pillow and framing his face. Obeying an impulse, she reached out to brush wayward hair strands from his face, her fingers lingering to touch him.

Yui frowned and removed her hand. ...Why do I feel this way for him? She shook her head wonderingly. He's a Solarian spy, and I barely know him... She sighed. Just my luck to fall in love with the enemy...

"Why are you being so kind to me?" he asked.

She smiled. "Why didn't you destroy the shield generator?"

He stared at her, confused. "You know why, you stopped me before I could."

"Liar," she rebuked him gently. "I saw you. You raised your sword, but you never struck. After a while, you lowered your blade."

"... Had I cut the wire, what would have you done?"

"I would have killed you," she answered simply.

Author's note:

This is by far the shortest chapter in Worlds Collide. Yep, I was definitely being lazy... ^^;; This is sort of a What If Situation. Just letting my fancy take me where it wished. The dear doctor would never act like that.

Maybe I'll add more to this chapter someday. ^^ Also, the next parts are definitely a little more racy. (sweatdrop) I'm thinking of not posting those chapters. Lemon and Lime situations, Ladies and Gentleman, and Yen is very red with embarrassment. ^^;;;;;;;;;;; They are chapters not necessary to the plot line of this fanfic... uh..., well, maybe they are, but I'm not making them available to the public until I have finished the entire fic, and even if I did, I still might not post them.

This is my first lemon, and I need to gather a bit more courage before I can post it. ^^

And of course, C and C's are very much welcome, and in case you did not know which is doubtful, they are very encouraging to writers. Honest if it's good, kind if it's bad.

Ja ne!

Yen^^
