Milly woke up from the pain. Her whole body felt as if her bones had been crushed and reassembled, it felt alien to her.

Low growling noises buzzed in her ears, creating a chaotic din… She forced her eyes open, despite the pain. The first thing she saw was the metal ceiling. Was I still in the basement?

The events from before flooded back into her mind–attending the banquet with George, buying an experiment subject who looked remarkably like her mute brother from the orphanage, the explosion, and shielding the experiment before losing consciousness…..

Oh no, could he be in danger?

Her shout immediately drew Apollo’s attention. Just moments before, he had been poised to attack, but now he whimpered softly and approached her like a cat being soothed.

He didn’t know how to heal her, but seeing Milly lying weakly before him made him incredibly anxious. Suddenly, he had an idea. He bit into his own wrist, and in a rush, pressed the bleeding wound to her mouth.

“Ahhh…” He couldn’t speak, so he anxiously pushed his bleeding wrist toward her. Milly didn’t understand his self–destructive behaviour but saw that he was now willing to be close to her. She smiled, forcing herself to endure the pain, and tried to calm him, “How about we go see a doctor?”
