Building 26

Well, Me, Diffy, Playwrite and Tingle were shooting off to save Evan, and we touch down a little way outside the gates just as Damian, Aron, and John appear from nowhere. Damian said they were coming to help, and they wanted to come in with me. I disagreed, saying it was better they stay outside so we weren't too big a group, but he pointed out that I'd said Aron would be helpful with cell doors, he could teleport out quickly if we needed him too, and he wasn't leaving John outside on his own. I reluctantly agreed, but made them promise to stay with the group, and made Damian swear not to go looking for his mum. We were here for Evan, not the full rescue plan for everyone else.

They all promised, so I flew us in down through the top, While Playwrite made a large thought bubble round us telling people to ignore us and Diffy made us look like cleaners as soon as we landed. We walked quickly downstairs one level to the holding rooms, and found Evan. I turned to ask Damien to teleport him out, and noticed he'd vanished! John was muttering to a blank looking Aron, and they both told Tingle truthfully that they didn't know where he was, but John said they would go and look for him, and before I could stop them they ran up the stairs again. Playwrite looked troubled and I asked why, and he said something wasn't right with them, but something was making it hard to see. He said Aron's thoughts weren't as complex and normal as they should be, and he couldn't tell what was going on with John. I sent Tingle after them and went phased Evan out of his room.

We followed the others back up the stairs, and found Tingle lying in a corridor unconsious. It was a miracle he hadn't been discovered, hell even as we found him a guard came round the corner, and Playwrite had to tell him to ignore us, and I used to persuasion to make sure he'd stop people coming into this corridor for a while. Tingle had a small lump on the side of his head like in cartoons when someone's hit by a saucepan. We heard raised voices round the corner and we got there in time to see Damian teleporting away from Aron, who was in a very bad way. We listened hard, and could just hear a slight heartbeat. John was nowhere to be seen. We knew something was up, but at the moment, we needed Healthbar urgently. I made us a large Forcefield and flew us straight up and out, Phasing through the floors, not caring about hiding. The life of a friend was in danger. We were going too fast to be seen properly. Playwrite called Healthbar on the way back, I was flying us so fast across that ocean I couldn't concentrate on anything else. Playwrite got Evan to support him as he went into Aron's mind and made it concentrate, keep himself alive, keep his heart beating just a bit longer. Playwrite was literally being Aron's mind, demanding that his organ's keep working.

Healthbar met us near the coast, she'd got a late train so she could get there as soon as possible, we couldn't wait for us to meet at base. She healed Tingle (it was easier to do the simple heal first, it got her power flowing better), who woke up, and told us while she started on Aron that it was Aron that had hit him, because John told him to. Then Healthbar screamed, and we saw that Aron was still unconsious, but his biggest wounds had healed, including the hole in his chest, and that he'd be fine in a second.

But then it all went wrong.

Healthbar screamed again and fainted. Aron had worn her out, and he wasn't anywhere near fully healed yet. But he would live. I flew us all back to base, and we carried them both inside and lay them down to rest for a bit. Damian was there, in floods of tears, but I thought it was better we leave him to be unhappy and ask what happened later. I wish I'd got him out of there to talk then, I might have saved everyone.....
