"It's time." Yalung said.

Libitina looked back at me disappointed and got up. I sat up in bed and looked at Yalung.

"To duel?" I asked.

"No, Harmon...I have to go leave for some tests." Libitina said.

"Oh..." I said.

I've seen the horrors of Libitina trying to open her third eye. They inject her with god knows what and put her through agony.

"Can he come with me?" Libitina said to Yalung.

"No, Libitina." Yalung said.

"You want me to open my third eye, right? This is the only way." She said.

Yalung was taken by Libitina's words. He looked over at me, then back at Libitina, then back at me again.

"Fine, let's go." He said.

I ripped the IVs out of my arm and my heart monitor flat lined.

I don't know why Libitina wanted me to watch her open her third eye. Maybe she would seem more calm or...maybe...

"Let's go, Foster." Yalung said.

Me, Libitina, and Yalung walked down the hospital hallway and out of wing A, to wing C.

We walked down the dimly lit hallways to see that it was almost night time.

We walked into a hospital room to see the sick doctor waiting in there. He smirked at me and Libitina as we walked into the room.

"What's the boy doing here?" The doctor asked.

"Doctor Rawls, this is Harmon Foster. He's an Oracle sent from Yankraught himself." Yalung said.

The doctor walked towards me and placed his hand on my shoulder. I almost wanted to sock him for even touching me.

"Yes... we've met before." He said.

Luckily for him, he took his hand off of my shoulder. I noticed that his other hand was in a cast.

Libitina took a seat on the table and the doctor prepared some syringes for her.

He took one syringe and prepared it.

"Are all of these shots necessary?" I asked.

"Absolutely." The doctor said sternly.

I walked over to Libitina and she took my hand. She squeezed me lightly as the doctor gave her the first shot.

She flinched but soon calmed down when she looked into my eyes.

"It...hurts..." Libitina said softly.

"I know...I'm sorry..."

It was for my safety, and better yet Libitina's safety that we played along. We need to escape from here.

I hugged Libitina and nodded at the doctor. He gave Libitina another shot, however he did it more gently than he did the night that I saw him.

It was almost like he was more gentle because I was there.

Libitina hugged my back hard as she dealt with the pain that was in her arm.

"I love you, Libitina." I whispered in her ear. Her breaths calmed down as the pain soon went away. She got her hands off of my back while the doctor prepared the last syringe.

"This should be promising." The doctor said in an evil voice. I saw him pull the hammer back on a gun that was under his over coat.

The doctor jabbed the syringe into Libitina's thigh and she just sat there staring at the ground.

She didn't have her vocal ticks, vomiting, screaming, laughing, she wasn't even clawing at her wrists like she was last time.

She seemed calm the entire time we watched her.

"Doc?" Yalung said.

"It's not... working." Doctor Rawls said.

"I guess it's not working...too bad." Libitina said.

"It's the boy!" The doctor yelled.

He pointed his finger at me and I gave him the death stare.

"What did he do?" Yalung said.

"S-Something! I don't know... Yalung you must kill this man!" The doctor said.

Yalung looked at me.

"Harmon, take Libitina to your room for the night, that way you can see if her third eye kicks in. I need to have a chat with Doctor Rawls here." Yalung said.

Libitina smirked at me as she got off the table. I was still dumbfounded as she grabbed my hand and walked me out of the room.

That's when I realized it. Her plan.

"Libitina, why did you make me come with you?" I asked as Libitina skipped down the hallway with her hand in mine.

"Can I tell you a secret?" Libitina said as she stopped and looked back at me.

"Yeah?"

"I can only open my third eye when my heart rate goes through the roof but...when I'm next to you...my...my heart beat slows down. I'm...I'm calm..." She said.

I felt a little embarrassed but at the same time happy that Libitina felt calm around me.

"Well...I feel the same way about you too. I think it's because I..."

"Yeah?"

"I love you."

Libitina started to giggle.

"You get so flustered when you have to say it. I love you too, Harmon." Libitina said.

It seemed that Libitina had a new personality. Maybe she was getting more comfortable around me.

We finished walking out into the courtyard and past the burnt bodies that were in the center.

"I swear Libitina, I will get you out of here." I said softly to myself.

Me and Libitina walked into our cabin and we walked down the hallway and I noticed that my doorway was creaked open.

"Hold on." I said.

I slowly opened the door to see a man wearing a cowboy hat looking out the window.

He slowly turned around and I saw the familiar face of the friendliest man in the NWG.

His cowboy hat on his head and his mustache above his million dollar grin.

It was Felipe. With a drink in his hand, of course.

"My friend! It's good to see you in good health!" Felipe said.

"Felipe!" I said.

Libitina stayed in the doorway as I walked over to Felipe and wrapped him in a big hug. He let out a hearty laugh.

I pulled away from him and he took a drink.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"Just came to check on Spencer's errand boy. Oh my Harmon, who is that?" He said.

Felipe looked over my shoulder and looked at Libitina who was peeking through the door way.

I nodded my head telling Libitina to come into the room. Libitina approached Felipe and he looked down at her because she was shorter than him.

"Hello little lady. I'm Felipe." He said as he took his hat off.

Libitina hesitantly shook his hand and then hid behind me.

"Hahah I see what's going on here. Good work Harmon." Felipe said as he flashed me a wink.

Felipe started to climb out the window while waving me goodbye but I stopped him.

"Felipe."

"What is it my friend?"

"We need the NWG forces here tomorrow."

"Harmon, that's gonna be difficu-."

"Please sir...please..." Libitina said.

Felipe and I looked over at her and she seemed teary eyed. She looked deeply into Felipe's soul.

Felipe climbed back into the room and over to Libitina.

"I can't say no to a face like that. I just need you to promise me one thing." Felipe said.

"W-What is it?" She said.

"Take care of my friend Harmon here." He said.

I crossed my arms and laughed and Libitina smiled at Felipe.

"I promise." She said gleefully.

"Good." He said.

Felipe took off his cowboy hat and placed it on Libitina's head. It was too big for her so she messed with it.

Felipe went out the window and disappeared into the night. I looked at my watch and saw that it was almost 10:00 at night.

"You sleeping here tonight?" I asked.

"Y-Yeah... actually..."

I sat down on the bed and took off my uniform. I wore a pair of boxers and a white t shirt.

I looked over at Libitina and she was taking her clothes off. All her clothes.

"L-Libitina...do you need me to get you some clothes?" I asked.

"N-No...I'm fine..." She said.

Libitina stood there in her bra and panties and tried covering herself with her arms.

"S-Stop staring at me...like that..." She said.

"O-Oh sorry..." I said.

I looked away and I heard foot steps walk towards me. Suddenly someone grabbed my face and pulled me in for an aggressive kiss.

I pulled away to see it was Libitina, her face red as ever.

She sat down on my lap facing me, her breasts right in front of my face. She grabbed me by my shirt and kissed me more.

"L-Libitina...what're you doing?" I asked while she took a second to breathe.

"Just...can we do this?" She asked shyly.

She reached her arms behind my back and took my shirt off.

"Libitina...are you sure?" I asked.

"Harmon..."

Libitina looked deeply into my eyes, not breaking eye contact. There was more of a look of love and passion in her eyes, rather than one of lust.

"It'll feel good..."

"I promise..."
