He felt as if his chest was churning with blood; every breath he took wasced with the taste of iron.
Thankfully, the gun was still in his grip. Without hesitation, he tossed it to Nana, "Catch!"
Nana and Subject 8 had been locked inbat for what seemed like an eternity. She snatched the gun from the air and fired
straight into his abdomen.
Subject 8, poised for another move, froze as his gaze fell upon her wrist. Around her wrist was a simple red string, and on it hung
a single jade bead.
Amoment of rity pierced through his chaos. His mouth opened but no words came out; the strength that had been sustaining
him vanished, and he copsed to the ground.
Nana exhaled a sigh of relief and was about to check on Maja when she noticed the jade bead around the young man''s neck.
Her body stiffened as if struck by a paralysis spell. The gun ttered to the ground as she fell to her knees, frantically pulling
open his cor.
The jade bead hung there, and with trembling hands, she drew closer to read the inscription.
"Nol! Nol!"
Clutching him desperately, she couldn''t muster other words; just held Subject 8 tightly in her embrace. He had passed out, blood
streaming down his forehead.
Beck, startled by her cries, coughed up another mouthful of blood.
"What''s going on?"
Maja raised an eyebrow, piecing things together. Perhaps this was the brother Nana had been searching for. But she''d just shot
him.
It was a stroke of luck that the bullet hadn''t hit his heart; otherwise, Nana would be consumed by guilt.
The helicopter arrived quickly to evacuate the wounded.
Maja felt a piercing gaze and turned to see Sarah. She didn''t recognize the woman, but the emotions in her eyes wereplex:
relief, joy, pain, and conflict.
Walter sat gasping for air, the dizziness now hitting him hard. Summoning hisst bit of strength, he addressed Jack, "This is the
top scientist from the research base. She can develop an antidote for your father. Take her back to North America."
Aspark lit in Beck''s eyes as he nodded slowly.
More helicopters arrived, ferrying the injured. The situation for Dn''spanion was more delicate; a wooden stake had
pierced her shoulder, and any movement caused profuse bleeding.
Yet, she seemed oblivious to the pain, staring intently at Dn, took his bloodied hand, and began to lick it.
Beck''s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets, and he coughed violently, almost hacking up a lung.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
"Bro, who is this?"
She seemed underage. Dn quickly withdrew his hand, his mind shing back to the numbers recorded in the experiment log.

His upbringing prevented him from leading her, so he endured her affections, resisting as best he could.
"She''s...an experiment subject from the base. We should take her back for observation."
Beck''s gaze shifted from the girl to Dn and back, and then with a wave of his hand, he signaled the helicopter to pick them up.
