~Katia~
I sighed as Kyle and I returned to the apartment after our little lunch date. I stared at the rose bush, and I realized who probably made in and I scrunched my face.
"Something wrong Katia?" Kyle asked me, concerned.
"Why did Marco have to leave huh?! He just up and left without saying goodbye!" I stomped my foot. "He was cool! And he didn't say bye to me!" I felt tears welling up in my eyes.
I payed no attention to the fact that I mainly kept saying he didn't say bye to ME specifically. And the fact that Kyle tended to make a sour face when I mentioned Markus. I quickly stooped over the rose bush and picked some roses carefully. I tried not to cut myself on the thorns, but I failed that pretty well.
"Ouch! Goddammit!" I held up my thumb, with the blood glistening on a small cut I got. "Well, I have five of these, I guess that's good now."
"Katia, you should really get a bandaid for that..." Kyle tried to tell me, but I waved him off.
"It's fine, don't worry about me, pendejo." I turned and the same small twitch upward happened again. But not a full smile.
We stepped into the apartment building, and payed no attention to the man who followed us in until he said something.
"Hey!"

~Finni~
I woke up with a start and tried to sit up. Part of my stomach stung with pain and I quickly laid back down. I looked down to see my bare chest and a scar running down my stomach. What was even creepier is that there were various marks made by a a sharpie or something littering my body. Was it where they were going to cut up next?
"Finn? You okay?" I heard Robbie asked and I turned my head to see brunette boy.
"Yeah, I'm fine. It just stings a tad where the scar is and my knee replacements ache a bit." I said rubbing one of the machines attached to my leg.
"Well, your friend 08 should be happy because Dr. Olmos recently made the Long Fall Boots. It's the same as the knee replacements, but in boot form. He seemed to not like the replacements much...But I worked so hard..."
My eyes widened. "You made these?"
He nodded. "Yes...The NM made me. I didn't have much of a choice. Oh, that boy...Lucas I think? He's going to leave. I'm not sure how he was able to leave, but Dr. Walker said he was going to be safe."
I stared at him for a moment. "Can I write a note to send with him? I just want to tell Vlad and the others that I'm alright so far.."
Robbie nodded and pulled out a notepad and pen from his pocket. The pad was specially made that it said "Robert Simmons" at the bottom of it....Fancy.
I scrawled quickly.
Dear Vlad and the others,
Don't worry so much about me, please. They obviously have not done the worst they could with me though. I heard from Dr. Simmons (Who turned out to be a friend of mine) that Lucas was blinded. Although I'm not sure who did it I think that they were the same people who are marking me out to cut me open. Now Vlad, don't punch anything yet, I don't want you to do something completely idiotic like you usually do.
And here, I won't be able to take care of this, so I want you to keep it until I return, okay?
-Finnigan Bloodgood (Aleksashkin)
I quickly finished and managed to tear a string off the frayed end of my jumpsuit sleeve. And I tied it around my familiar silver band that I had found in my small amount of personal belongings. A ring with the Green Lantern symbol on it. My wedding ring.
I tied it to the note and gave it to Robbie, who nodded and said that he was going to give it to Lucas. I watched him pull out a small communicator and called another man who said he was in another room with other experiments.
"Should I ask them if they want to send a note as well?" I heard the slightly crackled voice from the communicator.
"Yes, that would be good. I'll be right over." Robbie turned to me. "Goodbye, Finn. See you later."
-------------------
I'm still trying to figure out whether Kyle will make Katia smile, or Markus, or Salem, or someone COMPLETELY different (for fun) Maybe Kyle will find that picture of Katia and Salem from her quinceanera and get even more jealous~! But I want a different dress for Katia...might find a picture later...
And Knight will be confused as to why a Hispanic girl is practically sobbing over his brother...And maybe he'll see that note that conveniently has the name of a scientist? Just sayin'
