Harlan only stood there and watched as XI started to work on getting what was in her out of her system. "Very nice. I'm sure XIII will love you for that." Harlan glared, though he didn't want to say anything to her. Right now, he was more concerned about her getting better from the drugs and the poison. As quickly as they have arrived, an IV appeared and was inserted into Aria's arm. Then, a needle was inserted into her chest, probably the antidote to the poison. Worry started to set in. He just rescued her from the men that had captured her, but he was soon faced with another possibility that she was going to die from the poison that was in her system. "Now, all we have to do is wait. XII will fix the door for you so you can watch over her as she recovers. It might take some time for the drugs to leave, but the poison in her system might take some time… a few days or so, depending. I think she's also sick with a fever too." Then, XI threw Harlan a packet of medicine from her pocket, which he caught effortlessly with his injured arm. "From our department. Give that to her when she wakes up. Until then, I'll take my leave."

When both of the members of the Organization had left, Harlan placed the packet onto the night stand that was next to the bed. He brushed his hand across her cheek, feeling the heat from the fever that she has. "I hope you get better, Aria Ingrid. I have seen you been through worse things than this before. Don't die on me. Not with something like this." Usually, it was Harlan that was poisoned, since his constitution was greater. He certainly didn’t want to have to wait for Aria to wake up from the same fate that he was grown to be used to. Please Aria… Please get better…

------------------

Meanwhile, over in New York, Damien was looking at the computer screen. Cracking his knuckles, he went through the files that was there. He had his suspicions that the database was hacked into, though what they were was something that he wasn't sure on. Then, before he reached to the personnel files to look at Harlan's folder, he noticed that there was a new file added there. Smirking, he clicked onto it and sent it to the virus vault. "Very clever, Ai. But not clever enough. You might be the person in charge of hacking into various systems, I have the knowledge that hackers usually leave a virus behind once they are done." He particularly didn't care that his folder was hacked into for the file that was something to do with the meeting that 'Harkess' was going to attend. Just then, he got a video call from someone, which he gladly answered. "Greetings, Martin. I suppose that Harlan and Ai are safely captured and disposed of, just like you asked."

The familiar face of Harkess scowled. "It was a shame that the people that you had sent were the best men. Only Ai was captured after the meeting, with T… Harlan getting away from the building. Just then, Harlan broke into our building and took her form us, with the help from the elusive Organization. I don't care how long it takes, I want the Gore Angels to annihilate Harlan and Ai. If you fail and I send in Günter to dispose of them, consider that payment that I have promised you terminated and the GA annihilated after failing to assassinate me." Before Damien could reply, the video call ended. Scowling, he reached for the intercom.

"Can the top ranking GA members come into my office… NOW!"

Aria was vaguely aware of things being inserted into her but was busy trying to fight off something inside herself. Her body was hot and that she was dizzy. She couldn't open her eyes to insist to Harlan that she was all right. For some reason, she thought she was awake, and was running. From what, she couldn't figure out. She felt the biting pain of something in her abdomen, but couldn't move to stop it from hurting. She heard voices and felt something brush against her face. She wanted to speak, she wanted to whisper, she wanted to talk to him about anything right now, but her lips would not listen.

Then what appears to be after a few hours when it was actually a few minutes, the injection that XI had inserted had started working on Aria's body and her body relaxed and Aria fell asleep. Still fighting the foreign cells in her body, but nonetheless, better than before. The poison had to be cleansed out of her system, but what XI had injected was probably better. It would only take a few hours to a few days, depending on how well Aria's body was being cared for.

Outside of her mind, her face was still flushed and sweat began to appear on her forehead. She would make soft sounds every so often, but that would mean she was fighting or that she was dreaming.

She woke up, a few hours later, with a tired expression. "Harlan?" she whispered, her voice hoarse from being dry.

For hours, Harlan was taking a nap in one of the chairs that was inside the apartment. He hoped that Aria was alright, but the only thing that he was waiting for was the time taken for her body to get rid of the poison. Whatever was inside the IV was dealing with the drugs that were in his system. During his sleep, he thought he could imagine Damien talking to Harness about the pair of them being helped by the Organization. However, during this mini 'dream', he heard his name being called, making his eyes open. "Harlan...?

Harlan smiled at Aria and placed a hand on her cheek, feeling the heat from the fever. "Hey there, Aria," he replied, whispering it so that she doesn't flinch at his booming voice. "How are you feeling? Do you need me to get anything for you? Or do you just need rest?"

Aria closed her eyes as his much cooler hands touched her face. "You feel so cool," she whispered softly, closing her hand over his that lingered on her visage. She rolled over slightly so that she would face him more clearly instead of having to turn her head. She felt the IV in her arm and moved so that she wasn't going to disturb it too much.

"Hey there, Aria," he replied, whispering it so that she doesn't flinch at his booming voice. "How are you feeling? Do you need me to get anything for you? Or do you just need rest?"

"Better..." her hoarse voice murmured, her heated body squirming slightly under the sheets and blankets. She squeezed his hand for a moment as she made a small request for water. When he came back, she propped herself up enough so that she could drink it down, cooling her enough so that she was no longer sweltering. She laid herself down for again as she curled her fingers around his and rested her flushed face against his hand. "Just stay with me until I fall back asleep?" With the medicine that the Organization gave Harlan to give to Aria, Aria's eyes were already drooping again with sleep.

"You feel so cool." Harlan smiled at her when she made that comment. She rolled over so that she was facing him, being careful not to disturb her IV. With his free hand, he moved the tubing to her IV out of the way, just so that it wasn't in the way too much. Then, she answered his questions. "Better…" When she had asked for a glass of water, he felt her hands squeezing his. Obeying what Aria had asked for, he got up and got a glass from the cupboard, filling it with water. When he had returned, he gave her the glass and the medicine that XI had given him. Then, his hand was moved to her face again, feeling the warmth from the fever. "Just stay with me until I fall back asleep?"

"Ok, Aria," Harlan whispered again, smiling at her. At least he knew that she was going to be better for this mission. The mission that they have failed. "Aria… You know the explosives that you've detonated in the building? The Harkess that was inside that room was a double, a fake. We have… failed… the mission." The word 'failed' got stuck in his throat, knowing that he wasn't a person who wanted to face failure. Oh that sonnova bitch is going to pay for this… he though, allowing his anger to appear in his face. Damien is going to pay.

---------------

Inside NY Airport, 10 people were catching a flight to San Francisco, hoping to do business that their boss has given them. As you would think, 5 of them were men, the other 5 being women. They walked in two, loose files, with the men on the right and the women on the left. Most of them had one thing on their mind. Are we finally getting a shot at Harlan and Ai? Towards the back of the group was a couple that would identify the group to those that knows them. Diana and Mike.

Ok, Aria," Harlan whispered again, smiling at her.

She smiled back and waited for the water and medicine.

"Aria… You know the explosives that you've detonated in the building? The Harkess that was inside that room was a double, a fake. We have… failed… the mission."

Her drooping eyes suddenly snapped open, despite her weariness and her spinning head. She looked over to Harlan and noticed his angry expression. She squeezed his hand, to get his attention away from his thoughts.

Instead of replying to his comment, she asked, "Harlan, take off your shirt and come sleep with me." It was a gentle request and she looked at him expectantly. She reached her hand out and stroked his face, her burning skin touching his face. "We'll think about it after I've recovered, all right?" She smiled weakly as she closed her eyes, feeling dizzy again. Drowsily, her arm limped back to her side underneath the sheets. Her tiredness from fighting so hard against her captors from earlier was again catching up to her. Her being unconscious earlier was because she couldn't focus properly due to the poison and drugs.

"Share my body heat...?" Her weary question lingered in the air.

----------

"So that's them?" a black-haired female said, looking at the group with a wary gaze. "They're going to send them, after the two lost kitties?" On her right wrist, she wore a tattoo hidden underneath a sweat band with the numeral with what appears to be a ">". The other female that was at her side with golden locks of hair, however, she had an oriental origin with dark blue eyes. She nodded as the group walked through the gate. On her left wrist, she wore a matching sweat band with a tattoo underneath of a "<". It was tattooed so that when their wrists are put together, they make the numeral "X". They were the exception, for being twins made them so in sync with each other, that they almost one. However, even if they may have that, that did not mean that they didn't have their fair share in skills that would make them into the Organization. Skills that the others cannot do because they do not have another half like this pair does.

"They are a sad looking bunch," the blonde one replied. They spoke fluent Mandarin, most of which the people nearby who were unable to understand. "I had hoped that GA would have sent better men and women to dispatch the little kitties."

The black-haired one only shrugged and got up. "Time for us to go and meet up with the others, right?" Picking up her personal bag and carry-on, her blonde haired sister followed after... onto the same plane as the group of GA members.

Harlan felt his hand being squeezed by Aria, making him look towards her. His thoughts about failing the mission was gone when he looked into her amber eyes. However, his attention was caught when she told him about something that he wasn't expecting. "Harlan, take off your shirt and come sleep with me." He felt her hot hands touch his face. "We'll think about it after I've recovered, all right?" As she placed her arm back down against her sides, Harlan did what she requested. He took off his shirt and jeans and was lying in bed. "Share my body heat…?" Without saying a word, he went under the blanket and sheet, placing an arm around her waist, careful not to disturb the IV. Then, as he felt her body heat by his side, his eyes instantly shut and went to sleep, allowing the day's tiredness to be replenished.

As soon as Harlan's cooler body came in touch with hers, she immediately fell asleep. The medicine that she was given was beginning to take affects, destroying anything that did not belong in the body. She snuggled close to him, nuzzling her face into his chest as his lower body temperature cooled her down...

-------------

Aria awoke feeling sore, but otherwise better than earlier. She noticed that she had been asleep for a long time. She still felt slightly feverish and then glanced over at the clock. It was nine in the morning.

"H-How long was I sleeping...?" she mumbled to herself. She rubbed her head for a moment as she noticed that she wore only her undergarments. Then she remembered vaguely that Harlan had been the one that washed her and changed her clothes for her while she was unconscious. Feeling better, but again, still slightly feverish, she laid back down and touched Harlan's bare chest. She always liked waking up beside him.

"Harlan, how long have I been sleeping?"

Harlan woke up as Aria started to speak with him. "H-how long was I sleeping…?" His eyes opened as she felt her fingers on his bare chest. His green eyes looked down towards her when she spoke to him. "Harlan, how long have I been sleeping?" He thought about it for a while, trying to remember how long she was sleeping for. Trying to remember the time, he knew that he went out to save her at around 10:30pm last night, with them arriving at the building an hour later, leaving the time at 11:30pm when he went to save her. He didn't know when he arrived back, but he can remember the time that both of them went to sleep at around 1:45am.

"We went to sleep at around quarter to 2 in the morning, leaving us about… 7 hours and 15 minutes. You've been sleeping for longer, but I don't know how long you've been sleeping. The two days that you've been sleeping probably would make my memory hazy." Harlan moved back and sat up, allowing his hand to stroke her silky hair.

Aria gazed up at Harlan for a moment and then snuggled into his side, her slightly feverish skin touched his own. For another moment, she said nothing until she murmured the places where that man had touched her.

"Please erase him from my body."

Her face was hidden, her expressions unable to be seen. She was reliving what he had done to her, wishing that it had been Harlan. Her fingers tightened the sheets that she was holding onto to cover herself. Already, her body was itching for Harlan to do his magic, to erase everything about that man away from her.
