"Comeon Babe! Just climb the gate!" Scorpion called to me.

"I... I can't." I sighed.

"Why not?" He asked.

We were in a hurry. I knew that.

But I couldn't climb the gate.

And if I couldnt clone the gate. That would mean I was trapped in this dead and of an allyway.

"I... I got shot in the leg by an officer when we started to run." I confessed.

Scorpion looked down to my left leg.

It was bleeding down from my lower thigh.

"I'm not going without you!" Scorpion declared, jumping back over the gate to help me.

He helped me get to the top of the gate, and I jumped down, skillfully landing on my right leg only; then falling to the ground.

BANG!

A policeman shot at scorpion, but it hit off of the gate.

"Scorpion! Climb!" I called out to him.

He got halfway up the gate, when a tazer reached out to him.

I could see the pain in his eyes as he continues to climb, determined to reach me.

Then he fell.

"Aura..." he called from the ground.

"Yes! I'm here! You can get back up! Hurry!" I answered hastily.

He was no longer facing me, but instead, the police walking down the allyway; towards him.

"I want you to know... That I love you. You were, and always will be, my best friend and lover. I want you to go without me." He confessed.

"No! I won't go without you!" I cried.

"You know me better than anyone Aura. We will see each other again. Now go!" He ordered.

I ran.

If it was what he would want. I would do it.

I escaped the police then ran back to Ophiuchus High.

Scorpion and I had only been going there for two months before his capture.

He would probably be locked up in there for years with everything we've done.

I went to bed that night. But wasn't given the grace of sleep.

I have insomnia.

Scorpion was the only person that could help me sleep.

When I met him, he introduced me to the life of thetht.

He stole some sleeping drugs for me when he found out about my insomnia. But they didn't work.

Ever since then we were close.

We were both orphans, and we lived in an abandoned building before coming to Ophiuchus High.

Being near him helped me sleep.

Without him, I was wide awake.

******************************

I was sat in the kitchen, nursing a glass of cola when I saw Rico wall towards the front door.

He kept looking over his shoulder.

'Very suspicious' I thought.

I decided that I needed a destraction from Scorpion, or else I would disintegrate into nothing.

I wanted to clear my head, so that I could come up with ideas to save him.

So I followed Rico.
