Aliana held her head in her hands. It felt as if it was splitting in two, and don't get her started on the throbbing in her neck. She let out a moan of pain it quickly turned into coughing. She opened her eyes to see blood on her lab. She would have screamed if not for the bile rising in her throat.

(basically the parasite has started integrating with everyone, and that's about it)
“Goddamn, that guy looked terrible,” Vaughn muttered, bringing a hand up to run through his hair as he watched the pair leave the room. He sure as hell was not looking forward to going through something like that.
"Well, hopefully everyone gets through that shit and then we get a break," Kaz muttered, fiddling with his dog tags absently. "Wonder what'll happen to us when the mutations start. Or when we start dropping dead."
(I'll be offline for a bit, sorry)

“My guess is a week,” Vaughn said, running a hand through his hair. He felt at the back of his neck, the skin feeling sore where he had been given the shot. “This waiting is terrible.”
Aliana continued coughing. The blood continuing to come up. She ran out of the room to try and find someone to help. Not the doctors, oh no. They wouldn't give a shit.
"Well, who knows. Maybe we'll all survive and get cool powers and, I don't know. Break out or something?" Kaz said, walking over to one of the beds and flopping down gingerly onto it
Aliana ran up to a random door and began knocking. Maybe they could help.
Kaz sat back up at the sound of a knock on their door. "Oh my god, are we the help hotline now or something?" he grumbled, getting to his feet to open the door. He opened it to find one of the girls from earlier, and his brow raised. "Okay, go sit on the bed. Don't get blood everywhere, I'll get water and bandages."
Aliana nodded. Her hands flew to her mouth to stop the blood from coming out. She sat on the bed.
Kaz jogged into the bathroom, fishing some bandages out and filling another cup with water. He returned a few moments later, handing Aliana the cup while he unraveled the bandages
Aliana took the drink and drank it. The urge to cough went down slightly. She looked at the boy, "Thank you."
Kaz gave her a thumbs up before taking the cup from her and setting it aside. "Tilt your head a little, I'm gonna put these bandages on your neck. Helps a little with the swelling and makes it look a little less like you got shot with green koolaid or something."
Aliana lifted her head up. She wanted to hum and sooth her nerves, but it seemed like her vocal chords were gone.
Kaz wrapped the bandages around her neck quickly, making sure it wasn't too tight before moving away. "You want more water?" he asked, moving to grab the cup
Aliana nodded, "If you wouldn't mind. What's your name?"
"Kaz," he answered, taking the cup and walking back into the bathroom to get more water. "Also known as Kaon, depending on which of my personalities you're talking to."
Aliana looked to him, "You have multi personality disorder? That's cool."
Kaz handed the cup to her before sitting down on the other bed. "Not really. Think secondary personality that lives in my head and sometimes shows its ugly face."
Aliana took the cup. Her usual smile returned, "Oh. Then maybe it's not so cool. I'm Aliana by the way."
"Hi," Kaz said, resting his head in his hands. He honestly really wanted Aliana to leave so he could take a nap or something, but he knew he should be more empathetic and help care for her. After all, they would probably end up helping their entire group from the asylum as they started coughing
Aliana tilted her head. She felt the usual hum of her tune start back up. Her legs started to sway, "Do you want me to go? Because I can go."
"Are you feeling better? Because if you're not then you can stay if you want," Kaz said, drumming his fingers along his cheeks absently
After getting the boy to their room and laid onto the bed Jules slumped against it. Her head felt like it was splitting in half, she staggered back down the hallway to Kaz' room. "My head.." she groaned before against the wall.
Aliana nodded. The hum began and she closed her eyes swaying to the tune. She giggled, "I'm feeling fine. I'll go if you want me too. It's no trouble."
Kaz opened his mouth to respond, but his face fell almost comically as he heard one of the others from before stumbling down the hallway towards them. "Might as well get a damn sign that says 'clinic' on it to put on our door," he grumbled before getting up and walking out to find Jules. "Alright, come on," he muttered, taking her arm and leading her into the room
"What the fuck is going on?" She asked, holding her head. Releasing one hand she felt around on the back of her neck, tracing the bumps and lines she understood, The side effects, death or "superpowers".
